El Rodeo is hands down the best Mexican food in Norfolk. The carne asada tacos are absolutely incredible — so flavorful and the portions are huge. I always leave full and happy!

Hidden gem alert! Stumbled upon this place and I'm so glad I did. The horchata is the best I've ever had, and the burritos are massive. Staff was super friendly too.

Great authentic Mexican food at very affordable prices. The fajitas come out sizzling and the flavor is amazing. Service can be a bit slow on busy nights but the food is worth the wait.

This place reminds me of home. The menudo on weekends is exactly how my grandmother used to make it. Authentic, delicious, and the staff treats you like family.

Best Mexican restaurant in the area, no contest. Everything on the menu is delicious and the prices are unbeatable. The tucked-away location makes it feel like a local secret.
