This place is like a warm hug, man. Never disappoints! The layout is always tidy and welcoming. The atmosphere and aesthetic stays well up to par and the service is A1. Good people there. I usually order to-go these days and it's pretty much the same each time. The wife gets Arroz Con Pollo (chicken well done) and I get 3 street tacos (2 grilled chicken, 1 steak). It comes with beans but you can add rice or swap for rice. Bangin'! Much love to the Gran Rodeo Fam! Ps dine in and get the fajitas!

Gran Rodeo is located in the Landstown Place Shopping Center in Virginia Beach. The shopping…read morecenter isn't too big, but there are lots of businesses in here and parking has been pretty limited anytime I have come to this shopping center. When checking in here, I didn't realize I had been here before, but that was over a decade ago. My most recent visit here was on March 7, 2026. With this place being part of a shopping center, it didn't stand out too much from the other businesses there. I didn't see anything with them to pop out from the rest of the businesses there. My mom and I came in here around 4 pm that day. It was pretty busy, but I wasn't surprised since it was a Saturday. It took a few minutes for someone to come to the front desk to get us seated. While waiting for that, I had the chance to look over the specials they have throughout the week too. Since the timing was around St. Patricks Day, they had cards for the 757 Sober Ride program. Once someone came over, we were able to be seated. Shortly after, someone came around with the chips, salsa, and white sauce. We had some of that, and they are pretty similar to other places like this in our area. Our server came over and asked what we wanted to drink, so we did get the drink orders in, along with a Large Cheese Dip as the appetizer while still looking over the menu to decide what we would get. After about five to ten minutes later, we were finally ready to order, which was just after the cheese dip came out. I decided to go with the Burritos Fajitas Chicken (no rice) with a side of pico de gallo, while my mom ordered the Fajita Taco Salad with steak meat. While waiting for the order to come out later, we continued on to what we already had at the table. The Cheese Dip appetizer was good. It really felt like it was just cheese though. Usually there would be a few other things in it too to add flavor to it, at least that has been my experience in other places. In the end, it was still a good dip though. After about 10 to 15 minutes, the entrees came out to the table. They were both hot and looked good. The burritos that I had were good. The chicken in it was nice and tender too. I added pico de gallo to it on top, and I am glad I did, as that helped add more flavor to burritos. The beans were good too, but I don't eat too much of them. I had thought all was good for my mom until we were done and ready for the check. She told me that she didn't really notice any flavor to the Fajita Taco Salad, and the steak that was on it was tough to eat, so she didn't eat much of that part. She didn't really have a chance to address with with staff as they didn't come back around until we were pretty much done. We did say something at that point, but they said she should have said something to make it right. However, how do you do that when nobody came back over until the end? Overall, I would say everything was just okay at best. Just breaking out the parts, I would give the service a two and the food a three. It was the overall experience that made me look at this visit as a two star rating as it could have been better. I probably won't be back here soon as there are several other Mexican restaurants in the area where I have had much better overall experiences.

It was vibrant atmosphere with great energy on a Friday evening. I was dining solo and was greeted and seated by pleasant staff. Chips and salsa were delivered promptly to the table accompanied by a glass of water. The drink menu looked amazing and it was hard to choose a margarita so I asked my server for a recommendation-something on the sweeter side and I was not prepared for the beautiful beverage that was going to be delivered to me moments later-Mango Sangria!!! The staff were attentive and checked in the perfect amount to ensure that I was enjoying my meal. The birria was delicious with generous portions of beef-great flavor! I didn't even try the rice bc I was too full from chips and salsa and my main meal. I opted to take an order of flan to go and I'm glad I did-I didn't eat it until breakfast the next morning, but it was so good! This place brings such an excellent combination of hard working staff, amazing food and drink and an outstanding atmosphere!

I introduced this great Mexican restaurant to my BFF since she hasn't tried it. She wanted something simple for lunch and was able to order something that wasn't on the menu: grilled chicken and rice with avocado slices. She was very happy with her plate! The service is always fast and the staff is very attentive. My go-to is Lunch 7 since it's always exactly what I'm craving. The chicken and bean burrito topped with the fresh lettuce, guacamole, sour cream, and tomatoes is perfect with the side of rice instead of beans. I truly enjoy the dining experience each time I come back. Can't say enough great things! I especially like the spaciousness of the padded booths, the lovely art on the walls, lights at the bar, and the music that makes the restaurant feel festive.

She appeared more interested in getting back to her phone than engaging with customers. When I asked for a different bottle because the one I received had an unusual mark on it, she seemed annoyed by my request. I had recently experienced food poisoning from Taco Bell, so I was simply being cautious about my health. I don't think that concern was treated with understanding. Jennifer also appeared to be annoyed when I mentioned to another customer that I was waiting for her to hand me some lids. I wasn't trying to be rude or disrespectful I was simply explaining why I was waiting. Her reaction and facial expressions made me feel like she assumed I was being negative, which was frustrating. Throughout the interaction, her facial expressions came across as annoyed and unwelcoming. Overall, the interaction didn't feel welcoming. I can't speak about the male employee as much because when I did have an interaction with him previously he was helpful for the most part, but based on my experiences, I believe the cashiers could improve their friendliness, patience, and customer service. Customers should feel comfortable asking questions or expressing concerns without feeling like they are inconveniencing the staff.

I ordered the chicken burrito bowl and a chicken and cheese pupusa. The pupusa was fresh, made to order, and very flavorful, however, I found the texture wasn't quite for me. The burrito bowl was a hit; it was packed with meat and toppings, and the flavor was excellent. They also had a small selection of Spanish groceries and snacks for purchase. I was 100% satisfied with both the food and service and look forward to returning. If you are looking for great Salvadoran food, I highly recommend giving them a try.

I was surprised we didn't get white sauce with our chips . When we asked about it, our Server said we needed to ask for it . We asked and we got a bowl of white sauce. That's unusual to me because I've never been to a Mexican restaurant that didn't serve both Salsa and white with chips. Their chip were warm, salsa and white sauce were both very good. For my meal I ordered Carne Asada Tacos on soft wheat shells. The steak was seasoned and grilled to perfection. There were also large sides of rice and beans with the Tacos. The Restaurant is fairly large. Seating is spaced out nicely. There is an outdoor seating area that overlooks a lake. I enjoyed everything about the restaurant but do not live near it so I probably won't go there again unless a special occasion takes me to the area.

The outside of the building is easy to see when coming up on Nimmo Parkway. My most recent visit here was on April 10, 2026. The outside of the business looks to be like a festive Mexican place. The colors of the name stand out from the rest of the building. There is outdoor seating overlooking the lake. I have found that parking can be a bit dicey during the busier times, which was the case on my most recent visit. The inside of the business is a festive Mexican scene too with all the art along the walls and such throughout. The overall vibe is part Mexican, part Bar Scene. It's actually a great combo for them. It had been a few years since I had been there before my first recent visit on March 30, 2026. I was going through stuff for an early spring cleaning, and found a coupon (that didn't have an expiration date). It was so old that it still listed locations for their sister restaurant El Tapatio (no longer around). This was the catalyst that got both myself and my mom to come back in. Speaking of coupons, they do honor coupons from their competitors too. On the first recent visit (March 30, 2026), we were immediately greeted and went to a booth. A server came over and brought the chips and salsa right away. When our server came over, which was pretty quick, we did ask to have the white sauce too (by request now). When he came back, I showed him the coupon and he went over to check with the manager. Ultimately, that coupon was able to be used on this visit. It was now time to start ordering while still looking over the menu. We started with the Small Cheese Dip Appetizer. This is something I get most of the time when going to a Mexican restaurant, though I will switch out to guacamole sometimes. It didn't take long for the cheese dip to come out. I don't normally drink alcohol, but I did on this visit, and I would try the Bloody Maria. My mom would get Pepsi on this visit. It would still take us a bit longer to choose something since there is so much to choose from. After another few minutes, we were finally ready to order. I ordered the Burritos Mexicanos with Chicken as the protein (no rice), while my mom got the Chimichangas with ground beef as the protein. In a little under ten minutes, the food came out to the table, and it was very hot, which is what I would expect. Both entrees looked really good. The burritos looked small, but they were packed with chicken and flavor. My mom really liked the Chimichangas as well. Since this visit was so good, we came back a few weeks later on April 10, 2026. On the April 10, 2026 visit, parking was pretty limited, which I am not surprised since it was a Friday evening and the weather was nice. This second visit was very similar to the one a few weeks before. On this visit, we ordered the Tableside Guacamole, but exclude the serrano peppers in it. Even without the serrano peppers, the guacamole was really good, fresh and flavorful. For the entree, I ordered a Burrito Bowl with chicken as the protein. My mom ordered the TJ Tacos entree. Both of those food items were great too, and my mom said it was too much, but it was good. Overall, these latest visits here were great. The food and service were on point and didn't have any issues. One thing to note is that if you use a credit card, there is a 3% processing fee. This fee does not apply when paying by cash or debit card. With great food and great service, this place is worth checking out if you're in the Red Mill area in Virginia Beach and looking for a Mexican place.
