Morelia Mexican Restaurant - Surry — Restaurant in Surry

We were very excited when we heard it was coming. Waited very impatiently. Opening week came for takeout. It was very good, we ordered an off menu item, Fries Texanos. One of our favorite restaurants has that, we get every time we are in McGayhesville. The guy who took the order had to go check, but they did it happily. Ordered again for takeout a couple weeks later. The one at the other restaurant is slightly better, but it was very good. We also ordered a fajita the first time and something for the grandkids each time. They enjoyed. Tonight we stopped in to dine in. My wife had the Taco Salad, I had the Molcajete Morelia. We both enjoyed our meals. Had a lot to take home after. I've read a few reviewers saying the food is bland, my opinion is it has plenty of flavor, it is not spicy like I would be used to in the southwest. But, they are trying to serve to a Virginia crowd. We will definitely eat here again. Oh, my wife thinks the white sauce is just a little spicy.

Only issue is the booth we were given was very tight, we ended up sharing one side to make it roomier. Initially it took a few minutes to get the server, but once he found us, we had great service.

Second time dining in, took friends from out of town, food was great, we all enjoyed. Bigger table.

Went back again. Third time eating in. Much more comfy booth this time. I ordered the same thing, because I really like it. The refried beans tonight were a disappointment, water looking and tasting. Other than that, delicious.

I do have to say, three times eating the Molcajete Morelia, each time it was a little different to look at. The first time, the meat was cut smaller and mixed with the sauce and vegetables. The second and third, it was much bigger pieces of meat, but on top. The sauce and veggies on the bottom. I preferred the first time, for ease of eating and for the sauce, meat and veggies mixed together. I mentioned to the waitress this time. Oh, first and second time the roasted jalapeno was sitting on the top, the third time it was split to look like a flower. Trivial, I know, but when you order a meal at a restaurant, I just think it should look the same, each time. So far, three times, three different looks. Flavor was great, just...

My husband and I ate here on our way home from Hampton. It was Margarita Monday and the Margaritas were $5.99 and they were very good and large. The food was supersized. The salsa was excellent and the white sauce too. I seen some reviews saying that people had acid reflux. I have acid reflux and seriously if you don't want to have issues with that. Don't eat in a Mexican restaurant and I'm not talking about just this one. The food in my opinion is moderately priced. I am taking home leftovers. My husband ordered a burrito and it was from one end of the plate to the other and was loaded with steak and shrimp and it was a little pricey but honestly it was huge. I would highly recommend this place and ask for Andrea when you come. She's a very pleasant waitress and she got my order right and I'm one of those people that say I don't want this. I don't want that but add this and that and she got it right. Also, we had our two dogs with us and we sat out in the patio and on such a hot day. It was very nice out here with the ceiling fans and...

Really disappointed in the service. The waitress/bartender had no idea the types of wine. Ask for Sauvignon Blanc & rec’d red wine? We ask for a water refill 3 times before we got that. The chips were cold when they arrived 15 mins after we sat down. You cannot have the waitresses being the bartender on taco Tuesday’s. The girl at the register was so rude when we ask for our check ( because our waitress was too busy at the bar). Her response was “ your waitress can get that”. Are you kidding me?? Your standing around doing nothing & the waitress is busting her tail multi tasking. We finally stood up to leave & then we got the attention that you better bring our check. We so wanted to love this place, but left...
