Los Cuates Taqueria

I visited here for the first time with some co-workers. The food was great, and the service was quick for our party size.I tried a few tacos that were special for Taco Tuesday ($1 off each). The pastor, chorizo, and asada were all good. I also had a side of rice and beans, very tasty. I was hungry sooo ugh some of my food was camera-shy Margarita was good as well! Would recommend checking it out.

I ordered the veggie fajita & everything was fresh. I loved that they added grilled celery with it, I never had hit celery lol but it was delicious. All the flavors went together extremely well. The chicken nuggets and fries were fresh, my son loved it. The service was quick & the staff were polite

It's been a few years since I had lunch here and not much has changed. The service is still pretty quick and the ladies are polite. Happiest hours is from 3-5pm weekdays We wanted tacos for lunch so I had the barbacoa, asada, carnitas, and Al pastor. Not sure why I needed to eat 4 tacos in the middle of the day but hey, it happened. The barbacoa was the star of the show, super tasty and a decent amount. The carne asada was a great runner up, would definitely have more.Hubby had the chorizo, barbacoa, and asada, and he agreed the barbacoa was excellent. I had the mango margarita, it was on the sweet side but a good amount.We were in and out in like 30mins which is perfectly fine by me.

Stumbled upon this place while traveling to Virginia Beach. I've eaten good Mexican food across 12 states during my regional visits. This place has GREAT food!! if you see a Mexican restaurant that says authentic Mexican food you need to run. This is the real deal. I took my Hispanic business partner, and he stated it taste exactly like home in Mexico. I was the only non-Spanish-speaking person in the restaurant and I was glad he interpreted for me. I enjoyed every moment! Great food great atmosphere. You can't go wrong with this place.

Excellent authentic Mexican food in Virginia Beach. Service is very good. Only drawback is it's a small place and not in the best part of town. Other than that, if your looking for great Mexican food, you should check it out.

Another great authentic Mexican food place which is a rare in this state.I would definitely recommend you calling ahead to order because just showing up was not it for me hunny. It was crowded and there was a line almost wrapped around the building, however I do understand because this place is delicious. The staff worked really hard taking orders as well as presenting them and making sure everything was correct. Parking was hard due to the crowd as well as the tiny parking lot they share with other businesses so keep that in mind as well.

Stopped by for a quick lunch to take out. I ordered carne asada tacos, esquite, charro beans, and a carne asada torta. Everything was around $34. When i arrived they were out of esquite, so they took it off my bill. They did offer me elote but i didn't want it. The girl at the counter was nice while i paid for my food. The atmosphere was real chill. When i got home the food wasn't hot any longer so it changed the texture of the tacos. I'd say if you eat it there its probably a better experience. The tacos were ok. I liked the green sauce that went with it. The red sauce was hot, hot, hot... I took 1 bite and knew the red sauce wasn't for me... Lol. But if you like spicy, you should try it. The charro beans were my favorite. They had good flavor!! The torta was alright, a little salty but still ok. The bread was soft and good. I would still like to taste the esquite, so I'll probably return. 3.5 stars for me... Check them out!!

My boyfriend took me here to make up for the Las Tapatias/Costa Del Mar scandal that occurred the day before. We originally went to Las Tapatias because he raved about it and their website said they had elote, but their entire business model had changed as they had been bought out by another restaurant, replacing the menu. I digress.We walk into the restaurant and are met with Latin American music and a cool interior that reminds me of Plaza Azteca before they got remodeled. I love restaurants like this. We are seated quickly and given menus and chips. I search and make sure... yes they have elote. Lol. The menus are kind of hard to read because they are kind of all over the place and not organized in a concise way. However, we eventually figure out what we want to order. The language barrier was kind of an issue, I think, because I ordered cheese dip and 2 elotes, with a side of sour cream for my entrée later. She brought the elotes and sour cream, but later we find out that our cheese dip order didn't get put in, so we ordered it down the line once our entrées come out. For our entrées, I go with a shrimp quesadilla as usual and my partner got 2 birria tacos (no consomme) and a beef tongue torta. Our food comes out fairly quickly, and our chips and drinks are refilled often as we wait. The salsa that comes with the chips was flavorful and spicy. I tried some of the sauces given to us, just on a chip for each, and they were sooo spicy to me (not complaining, it's just my tastebuds). So I just had the salsa and it was delicious.First, we share the elote. It was served steaming hot, with lots of cotija cheese. This was some of the best elote I've had. The corn came right off the cob, and it was just seasoned and coated to perfection. Yum!!!Our entrées come and my boyfriend notices that he wasn't served the beef tongue torta, but a normal carne torta. He was a little irked, but no big deal. I heard him ordering it and he definitely said beef tongue, but she said "beef?" and he said yes. So just another miscommunication. Again, no big deal, he enjoyed the carne torta regardless. It was a huge sandwich!! There was a hearty portion of meat and veggies in a toasted roll. The birria tacos were scarfed down before I could take a picture. He always forgets that I like to Yelp! Lol.My shrimp quesadilla was yummy and deliciously cheesy. It was served with rice and beans. I used my sour cream for dipping it. It was just cheese and lots of shrimp, which I liked. Sometimes, when there's veggies, it just seems like filler. It was great!!We ask the waitress if we had ordered cheese dip, in a polite way to see if it'd remind her. She just looked really confused. So we put in the order for cheese dip as we ate our entrées. It's always awkward for me when that happens. But we tipped her well.One weird thing is it was hard to get her attention because she and all the other waitresses were taking shots at the bar and going over to sit with a noisy table and drinking there as well. I dunno, just not a good look to me I guess. The cheese dip came really quickly after, and it was very tasty and a little spicy, served with more chips. Always a fan of cheese dip from a good Mexican restaurant.Definitely come here for some authentic Mexican food and for their elote. Such good food!! With the service, just make sure they have your order down. I think it's because I ordered a bunch of stuff at once that they didn't get my cheese dip in, and my boyfriend misunderstood her about the torta. But everything came out great in the end.

I ordered online and they said they weren't able to refund me for and item they didn't have. I also was missing a taco out of my order as well. I felt as if they took advantage that i'm not a fluent Spanish speaker and used that to rip me off.

The first time that I came 7/24/24, the mangonada was as advertised on the pictures. Today my mangonada was in a tiny cup. It didn't have the long mango slices or the candy on the stick. This was all I was looking forward to, since I live an hour away. And I paid the same amount.
