Reviews for Tres machos in Richmond, VA
What an amazing place to have a drink ( I had one cantarito loco and I would definitely come back again to have another one!... Highly recommended. Read more
Immersive experience! Mexican food in a Mexican restaurant run and staffed by (mostly) Mexicans, and playing Mexican banda music... (when I go to an ethnic restaurant I much prefer the music of the culture than Western music I can hear anywhere anytime). Thebonus for me is I get to practice my Spanish bc even tho they spoke to me in English I?ll chat with them in Spanish???????? The food was outstanding as was the service. It was a quiet lunchtime but the staff was still super fast?chips andsalsa were on the table before my butt hit the seat. I ordered chicken enchiladas from the lunch specials. The food came withina few minutes! And the plate was PIPING hot. OMG, hot food. How glorious! (I?m the one who usually has the honors at home so bythe time I get to mine it?s merely warm ??) The salsa was tasty n fresh and was yummy on crispy tortilla chips hot out of thedeep fryer (I don?t mind an occasional splurge). Server(s!) were super attentive and super fast (did I mention that already?). Iwas taking my time eating (avoiding going back to a bunch of work piles yakking at me demanding attention); each one of themmust have asked me at least twice, and my server a few more times, was everything OK. Ripe diced tomatoes, crisp shreddedlettuce and rice cooked just right?not soggy, not undercooked. I ordered a side of refried beans which were muy sabroso/verytasty! Creamy and not too salty. The chicken was breast meat and a tad on the dry side but still tasty. I wasn?t bothered by thechicken being a bit dry bc I mixed the pieces up with the creamy refried beans, rice and a dollop of the salsa which the serverhad topped up. I forgot I don?t care for corn flour/masa tortillas so ended up not eating much of the tortilla. I?ll work onremembering that next time and ask if I could get the wheat tortillas instead. Not exactly enchiladas, hey, it?ll work forme. I also got quesabirría to go. The dish is best eaten asap but regardless of when it?s eaten, the accompanyin Read more
Order a 4 taco salads for lunch and the shells on all of them had an obvious taste of a cleaning product! When we called to let... them know they wanted us to bring them back so they could make more?. So we can eat more soap or disinfectant.. I don?t thinkso. We are nurses so having the ability to go back up to pick up new ones is nearly impossible. It should of been good to beginwith. None of us will return unless we run out of disinfect to clean.

Very nice Mexican place not far from my home. Friendly staff and great service. I would give 5 stars but the fajitas in my order... were a bit chewy as was the chicken in the taco. But the flavor was excellent and all the sides like refried beans were great.Prices are good with typical restaurant big portions. Will be back soon. Read more
1st time eating here.with my daughter. Although I was surprised that the restaurant was kinda small, it was comfortable, clean... and inviting. The menu had plenty of options to choose from with a large variety of appetizers, entrees and drinks. Our waitresswho was very nice and very attentive to our needs only spoke to us in Spanish which was very entertaining as we only knew verylittle of the language but we managed to understand her and she appreciated what we did know of the language. She actuallytaught us how to order our food in spanish which we found to be helpful and entertaining. I ordered my favorite dish, steakfajitas and I also ordered a frozen blue margaritas. Their lunch specials ended at 3pm and we had just made it to get thediscounted plates. They gave us a plate of chips and salsa while we waited for our food and the chips were nice and warm. Salsawas very good (not watery) very tasty. We also tried the corn on the cob with all of the creamy dressing on top. It was hot andvery filling, but I didn't like it. My daughter enjoyed hers. It just wasnt my thing with all of the additives on top. Nextcame my drink which was huge for a medium. It was absolutely delicious! My daughter ordered a frozen mango drink which was alsolarge (she ordered a medium) and SO delicious! My fajita plate was small (luncheon special) but came to the table sizzling andhot. My disappointment in the dish was that there were mostly peppers and barely any onions (I love caramelized onions!) Still Iwas satisfied with the dish. I felt as though the dish tasted the same as all of the other Mexican restaurants in the area.Nothing special with the flavors or preparations. It came with lettuce, pico de gallo, sour cream, rice and beans. I'm givingthis place a 4 star but I plan to come back with friends for the drinks which are waaay better than the drinks at Top Golf wherewe go very often. We now plan to stop here for drinks first and then cross the street to enjoy golfing Read more
My food wasn?t good. I placed a take out order. I threw the shrimp nachos out. The shrimp was very dry and tasted like it might... have been freezer burned or old and unclean. The empanada crust was very good but the chicken was dry and bland. I wouldn?t tryeither of these dishes again. Read more
First time visiting Tres Machos and I was not disappointed. The service was great and the food was delicious. I visited on a... weekday and they were not busy so we were seated right away. It didn't take long to get our meals and the food was hot. Verynice restaurant and atmosphere. I would recommend it to anyone. Read more
I didn't think the food tasted like anything special, but my husband quite liked this place. The fresh made guacamole is a great... touch and it was yummy. They mean it when they say they can make it spicy. Read more
