We came here with high hopes based on the reviews of the food. Unfortunately we won't be returning. The restaurant is one room with a bar in one corner and everything echoes. That could be overlooked but there was a group at the bar who were shouting at each other instead of talking. We literally couldn't hear each other speak over them. To make matters worse, they were screaming profanities at each other as part of their "conversation." It was really bad and the staff didn't care This overshadowed everything. Would not recommend. read more

La G is a truly authentic Mexican restaurant and in my humble opinion, one of the best. I grew up in Latin America so I can tell the difference. Everything is fresh and home made right down to the hot sauce, chips and tortillas. My favorite dish is the Carnitas. Delish! read more

Food Bar Service Ambiance Art Vibe What doesn't this place have ? This was the BEST dining experience in Danville, VA. Javier the owner was a gem, so was our waitress. Lovely Service ! I can't wait to come back for a margarita and to try more of the menu. The portions were huge ! Most authentic Mexican food I've had in years and I live in Las Vegas. We ordered the chorizo queso, street tacos, and empanadas. My husband's family is from Argentina. He said those are the best empanadas he's had since he left. read more

I got to the restaurant before they opened in hopes to expedite a To-Go order. I still had a 35 minute drive to my lunch for 10 people. A gentleman named Javier met me at the door. I very appreciative him opening the door before they opened. when I told him my situation, he quickly put together a lunch for me that could easily be carried into the office. I'm not from this area, so it was very nice to find someone so accommodating. The food was awesome, and very reasonably priced.. The staff at my staff at the lunch very much enjoy the food. Some commented better than other Mexican restaurants in the area. I will definitely use them again when I'm back in this area, not only for catering, but when I need to stop in and grab a quick bite. This place is a real gem. read more

They don't miss. I ordered the chicken empanadas and the chicken queso street tacos. Authentic. Delicious. Pure fire.

First time in Danville and this spot is a MUST!! Everything was great from ambiance to the service, and don't getting me started on the FOOD! I highly recommend this restaurant if you're ever in the area. read more

We stopped in for a meal on Lent after service. The building was filled with Mexican art and the ambiance was contemporary eclectic. However, I don't go to a restaurant for the décor. The food took quite some time to arrive but the menu did say that everything was made from scratch. When my shrimp taco and gordita arrived it was beautiful. It was filled with cilantro and onion and shrimp in a corn tortilla. The gordita was packed with the same but had beans to add calories. I have been fantasizing about going back to eat those homemade tortillas. There are no chips served. Drinks are $3.00 but you get refills. If you want authentic try this place. If you want chips go elsewhere. read more

Great authentic Mexican food. Don't go expecting Tex-Mex, everything slathered in queso or cheddar, or other "Americanized" versions of some classic dishes -- just solid, good food. If you like tequila, the drink menu will have you drooling -- literally not a mixed drink on their specialty menu that I wouldn't try. As another reviewer noted, if you're disappointed by not getting free chips and salsa shoveled at you when you hit the door, try someplace else. This place offers generous portions, amazing flavors, great service, and a clean, inviting atmosphere. We're not local, but come through often and will definitely eat here again. read more

Must go!!!! Food is really good. The manager here really ensures you are taken well care if. The drinks are mixed to perfection. I recommend the Mexican mule. You wont regret going read more

I ordered a to go order over the phone they had said 25 minutes. I went into the restaurant 25 minutes later and asked about my order they said it was coming out 10 minutes go by and I asked for my order again and they said they were making it so I waited patiently since there were people coming in and out. 10 minutes go by and I ask for my order again and they gave me the same response that it will be out in a short while. I waited over an hour to receive an order that was supposedly going to be ready in 25 minutes. When I got my order the food was awful the carne asada was dry and not well seasoned. I will never and I mean ever be back here again. The servers were nice, but it does not change the fact that I waited over an hour for my food. read more

We were already fans of the smaller location, so LaG did not disappoint! They are the real deal. I had enough left over for another meal. We will be back! read more

Some of the best tacos I've had in Danville. I had a grilled shrimp taco and my daughter had a burrito with steak, chicken and shrimp. The meat and shrimp were so well seasoned and cooked to perfection. We both brought food home. Guacamole appetizer was fresh made and amazing start to our meal. This is not Fast food it took some time but was worth the wait for such well made food. Compliments to the chef. Enjoyed it and will return read more

Delicious food, fun atmosphere, & great people! I ordered the piña loca fajitas with chicken, and they were really good. I definitely recommend! read more

The absolute best authentic Mexican food you can find around (other than the OG La G). The people there are awesome, they have great attitudes and are attentive as well. And there is no way you can't take a few pictures in there with all of the amazing decor. It truly is a great amenity for the Danville area. We should do whatever we can to keep it here! P.s. the empanadas are out of this world. read more

A more modern taco bar for the new generation. I have eaten at La G twice now and I have to say they make some tasty food. I looked forward to trying this place out after having the Quesa Birria tacos at the original location, La Guadalapana in Blairs. This place is a little on the pricey side compared to other Mexican cuisine in the area. But you kind of expect that with it being more of a taco bar spot than a traditional sit down style restaurant. I haven't had La G's birria tacos yet but everyone I have heard from says they're delicious. I chose to go with a couple items that I hadn't tried before. My first visit I got a sopes and two gorditas (should've just had one of each because that's a lot of food.) They both have a fried tortilla, which I did not know beforehand. They were both very good, especially the one I got with Lengua, but they were very greasy. I had some tummy/bathroom issues the following 24 hours after this visit because of this, if you know what I mean. My wife had the empanadas and they looked good so I decided to get them on my second visit. I knew these also were fried but they must have left mine in the fryer a little too long because they were soaking in grease. I had bad acid reflux for the rest of the day and that never happens to me after eating fried foods. Overall, the food is very good and authentic, but maybe I just need to stay away from the fried foods next time. The service was okay, it seems like they're all still trying to figure out their jobs though. At least the servers I had didn't seem like they had a serving job beforehand. I am sure the service will be better over time. read more

Great food and the employees are very friendly it's also a very clean place which is a big deal for me

We went there around 2:30pm, so the place was empty except for us. The service was good, the food was great but the music was so loud that, even though we were the only people in the restaurant, it was a struggle to hear each other speak. Turn the music down a little and I'd give 5stars! read more

Undoubtedly, the best authentic Mexican food I've ever had. It may honestly have been some of the best food I've ever had across the board. The service was impeccable and the atmosphere was great. My family and I ordered an array of food - steak tacos, cactus tacos, enchiladas with red sauce, quesadilla... all of it top notch. One of the managers also brought out mole enchiladas for us to try and they were OUT of this world! We are from New York and will 100% be going back when we come down again. We are probably going to go back tomorrow before we leave. THAT good! 10/10 read more

This is my favorite Mexican restaurant. I love trying something different every-time I come and everything has been delicious!
