22 Best Tex-Mex Restaurants near Burke

“Breakfast burritos (especially the Mr T & Chicharron) are excellent & I always love the BBQ Pork burrito platter. The salsa is one of my favourites anywhere, but it's better when dining in. The takeaway salsa is always more watery. Service is hit or miss, but I'm not really there for the service anyway.“

“I visited this Tex-Mex restaurant with a friend some time ago, and we had a fantastic dining experience. The food was outstanding, served in the perfect portions with the freshest ingredients to create the best Tex-Mex cuisine in the area. The interior was decorated with numerous paintings and art, which made the ambiance bold, colorful, and authentic. The service we received was excellent. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking the best Tex-Mex food in town!“

“Came during happy hour, and was pleasantly surprised at the prices and options they had. Loved the frozen lime margarita (a must), with the chicken quesadillas and the guacamole and salsa to share with the table. Loved the pupusas, and the best thing about this restaurant is that the food is always fresh and hot! We loved the tres leches and the churros and ice cream.“

“Salmon salad was very good and fresh~! The salmon was not fully cooked and asked to cook it again. The house gave me more salad with fully cooked salmon. And all waiters and waitresses were kind and professional. Will recommend to friends and family.“

“Great hole in the wall spot on the second floor. Food is delicious - not too oily so tacos don't get soggy. Great range of menu options. The steak, beef, chicken are halal.Dietary restrictions: The meat (chicken, beef) is halalParking: Strip mall with lots of spots to park“

“A small, happy, clean, quality business that is local and delicious. The food is authentic Bolivian (mostly). It's very good quality and they have have some very interesting twist on baked goods. Great service and positive atmosphere, if a bit small but the quality of food and service make up for any venue issues. Great place.“

“Jocelyn was a wonderful server. So friendly. Attentive but not rushed at all. Made the evening so relaxing. The host who seated us was also so kind and friendly. Made us feel special! The food was delicious. I got the chicken tacos (must ask for the white jalapeño sauce on the side, not spicy, tastes like ranch). My husband got the Elvis platter. Huge portions. Delicious!!“

“First time here it was greeted with a big smile and professionalism, and I was pleasantly surprised by the fajita meal that included extras that I didn't expect including a guacamole lettuce mixture that was wonderful and limes and salsa absolutely wonderful taste thank you thank you thank you I found a new restaurant that I will revisit often when I'm in the area!!!“

“I will go back to Urbano. The food was good on my one visit, and the atmosphere was excellent with two sides of the restaurant open to the outdoors in good weather. The service was acceptable. The men's room is inadequate for the capacity of the restaurant though.“

“It's new, it's good, it's worth visiting. [fin] Ok, jk jk, I'll write more. Let's cover food, service, and ambiance in that order. Food: Solid to very good. Of the el arriero ny steak, lomo saltado, and molcajete ... the steak and molcajete win. Sadly the lomo saltado, while quite decent, doesn't hold a candle to Super Chicken in Tysons. Ok but here's the important bit: THE CHIPS. The chips are great. Not only are they thin and crispy, they're well salted AND served with both WARM and COLD salsas. I never thought anyone would do as well as Uncle Julios for chips, but ... well, Guapos does. Service: Ironically we've been twice and we had the same server both times. And she was excellent. Super friendly, quick with requests, and checked in frequently. Not only that, they clearly operate as a team and several folks came by during the meal to ensure drinks were filled, napkins were in order ... and shockingly, as we were wrapping up, someone wiped the crumbs off the table. I mean that's a white-tablecloth steakhouse thing... right? Apparently it's a Guapos thing too. Ambiance: Fun to hip. The first time we were there was opening week and the live band was both entertaining and, uh, loud. Look, we're fogies, we complain about this err ... stuff. The second time we went it was much quieter and we were able to enjoy our meals AND our conversation. The decor is pretty great, the table arrangement spacious, and the place was packed, nevertheless. I'll close out with parking. It's a big lot, and it gets crowded ... but we found spots nevertheless on a busy night. Looking for Mexican? Yeah, I'd go here again. No arm-twisting required.“

“We were pleasantly surprised with this place - good food, great drinks, wonderful service - what’s not to like! The food came out fast (in a very full restaurant on a Friday night, mind you!) and it was good. Unlike some other Mexican restaurants we’ve been to, the house margarita in this place is a very good one, not watered down and had a good bit of tequila in it - so if you want to relax with family or friends after work one night, this is the place to be, we certainly enjoyed it!“

“El Tio is probably one of my favorite places in the area! Amazing food + the kindest staffMy partner and I go to El Tio at least once a week. I either get their bean and spinach enchiladas or their mushroom quesadillas, with the spicy guacamole. Never disappoints :)“

“Listennnnn.... Ometeo, the parking sucks. HOWEVER, the service is A1. We had a great time with our server (I honestly don't remember her name because she left before we finished) but the best experience was with our backup server Phillipe. He took such great care of us, made us laugh, seriously took our first time from a 5 to a 10. Make sure you order the short rib tacos, the carnitas de pato and the hibiscus guava margarita. We also tried the spicy margarita, 10/10. We will definitely be back with a bigger group. Thanks Ometeo!!“

“I'm new to the Alexandria area and have been scoping out restaurants here and there in the area. No need to look any further, I've found my go to restaurant. Conveniently located by my local grocery store so I can shop then have a margarita and some taquitos. First time in this place I was greeted immediately and welcomed in with a friendly staff. The food and drinks here are right up my alley and Lilo took great care of me by keeping the drinks coming in a fast efficient manner at the bar. Officially a regular“

“Food here is excellent! The street corn has so much flavor! Love the mango salsa!! I got a baja bowl with chicken and black beans; my boyfriend got a chicken burrito. Both were very good! We ordered via Door Dash, but will definitely give the restaurant a try next time for sure. Highly recommend. Get the street corn!!“

“At Anita's New Mexico Style Mexican Food, I savored the pork green chili burrito, a visual and flavorful delight. This mouthwatering creation featured a generous filling of succulent pork carnitas bathed in a tantalizing green chili sauce, crowned with an additional layer of the spicy green chili for an extra kick of flavor. The burrito's harmonious blend of tender meat and vibrant chili sauce left a lasting impression, thoroughly satisfying my taste buds. Accompanying this culinary masterpiece was a side of guacamole, boasting a chunky texture and made with the freshest ingredients. The guacamole's creamy richness complemented the bold flavors of the burrito, enhancing the overall dining experience. My visit to Anita's was a gastronomic journey filled with authentic New Mexico-style cuisine and impeccable flavors. I wholeheartedly enjoyed every bite and would eagerly recommend Anita's for a taste of...“

“Wowowow so I've been to Chuy's many a time. But this location in particular is awesome. I made a mistake on my end ordering through their online portal and it went to a different location. I came in and waited at the front for my order until a staff member walked up to me. I regret not reading his name tag bc he was very helpful and kind. He asked me about my order and I told him I had already been helped and was just waiting on my pickup order. He went to the back looking for my order and informed me it wasn't there. I showed him my receipt and he notified me I mistakenly ordered at Fairfax. Whoopsie daisy, I was willing to go drive there, but lucky for me, he already brought out a manager who had contacted Fairfax to cancel my order. I reordered my food, and then within LITERALLY 5 minutes I had my order. It was amazing service.Like I said, I regret not getting the waiters name. He has reddish blonde hair, tall (like 6"), blue eyes, and overall a gentleman.The front desk people were hilarious too and kept me entertained while I waited.“

“Our grandson’s end of season basketball team party was held at this Chilis. It could have been crazy like herding cats, but it wasn’t. The manager was so well organized! He had a room just for the team with tables set ahead of when we arrived. Promptly took our orders and delivered them quickly and accurately. Servers were great! Manager was amazing. Great experience!!Kid-friendliness: Great with kids!“

“The food was soo good i came back again and i tryed something new and it was great im coming back again soon .the service was very good this nice to young women served me my food and she was very nice to me and gave me some suggestions for foods to eat.“

“It's always a good time here. It's small and feels like you are home in your mom and grandmas kitchen. The wait staff is amazing, and the food is too.Wheelchair accessibility: It's a very open concept restaurant, in my opinion. I didn't have any issue with my wheelchair.“

“Marilynn who works there is the best customer service woman I’ve ever met! I was carrying my 1 year old and she said that they have good cheap kid options for food so she talked with my daughter while she made the food super quick and made sure we had everytbing we needed, everything was so clean and fresh. We thought she was the owner because she took so much pride in what she was doing, she’s amazing!“

“The good: The food is always excellent quality. They’re not shy about the chips (other locations give you like five chips), staff are always friendly and helpful.The bad: My only complaint is very small. They advertise that they close at 10pm. However, on multiple occasions I have tried to grab some food between 9:30-9:45 and the doors are locked and they will signal that they are closed. I’m not taking away a star because the staff have explained it’s due to either staff shortage or food shortage, so not their fault.I do still highly recommend this Moe’s location.“
