Reviews for El Caporal Mexican Restaurant River's Bend in Chester, VA

Only had the chips so far, but they have the best white sauce in all of chesterfield / richmond!

I travel all over the East Coast anywhere from Florida to New York City and this is one of the best Hispanic restaurants I've... been to I had four beers shot of patron and a fried burrito and it was under 40 bucks great price great customer service andwonderful atmosphere Read more

Very nice people and good food. I will never give 5 stars to a Mexican restaurant that serves chips with ranch....ranch... dressing. Read more

One things for certain , if you?ve been to one El Caporal ? you know you?re going to get the same great service, great food and... exceptional atmosphere. This was my first time at this location but it was the same exceptional experience I witnessed at theothers! Read more

The big draw to this place is great food (machismo burrito with jalapenos and without beans, chimichonga, chips/salsa)and... excellent service. We had effectively two very professional servers right on top of our every request. My girlfriend ordered aPatron margherita...it was strong. Beers were cold. The setting is as expected with music sung in Spanish and a large flatscreen behind the bar. It was very cool to see horse racing on tv instead of football. I didnt see the outdoor dining that is insome of the pics...mustve been in the back. Bathrooms were single person and clean. Id recommend! If i find myself in theseparts again, ill stop by.

I'm from California every town I go to I look for the best homecooking like my Grandma used to make. I can say El Caporal has... met this challenge! They have excellent servers and the food is awesome! I have tried everything on the menu. Been here 12months and eat here 3 times a week. The best hands down and their jalapeño and habanero salsa is the bomb!!!!!! Read more

Amazing food and margaritas!! Very attentive and friendly staff! Our server was on point and we were so happy with our first... dining experience that we will be regulars! I was so pleased with how much steak I had on my fajitas...way more than at otherMexican establishments. The prices are quite reasonable for the amount of amazingly fresh food received! Read more

I came in at 2:45pm. End of their lunch service and no customers except for me. I was greeted with a warm and enthusiastic smile... and invited to sit anywhere. ?Still serving food?? -of course! What are your drinking, brother? Many employed at otherestablishments would be thoroughly annoyed to have to serve someone for lunch after being empty for quite some time. Nothere. The gentleman saw that I was having trouble looking at things on my phone so he volunteered a sheet of paper with the wifipassword on it. - Difficult to get reception in here. Here?s the WiFi password if you?d like it. He saw me looking around andasked, -What are you looking for? Need hot sauce? Here. Would you like to try some of the hot sauce that we make here? Baseballok? Want me to change the channel? Someone once told me that service is what happens to you. Taking your order, getting itright, and bringing what you ask for is what is expected. Anticipating what you might need and offering them, making sure thatyou have the best experience, day, lunch, is hospitality. The food is good and I?ll return many times over for a meal like thisand hospitality you can?t find very often. Ollie is my server?s name. Read more
