I wish I would have checked Yelp like I normally do prior to going to Selena's Grill. I usually do, but we were doing some shopping at Lowe's (next door practically) and we decided to give this place a shot. Here's our experience on a nutshell. My family and I went for lunch on Sunday. We were the only customers in the restaurant, which immediately raise a red flag but didn't walk out.
Customer Service: We were greeted by the only staff there, she was also our waitress. She was cold and gave us the impression that we were bothering her with our presence. My mother had a question about an item on the menu...again cold, acted like her question was a bother (like we should know). Atmosphere: It was OK...if you want to go watch a soccer game and have beer. I saw Happy Hour specials signs which were appealing for that type of thing. Food: My kids ordered the mini-burritos, they got this HUGE burritos Chiptle size...we asked the waitress if that is a "mini", she said yes. They were all rice, not very flavorful at all (Chipotle far superior). My dish, my wife's dish and my mom's dish were not any better, too salty, didn't look fresh, didn't taste fresh, and yes still a cold waitress that seemed to be more annoyed every time we asked her questions.

I had a burrito de carne, and my wife had lengua tacos. Everything was tasty, well-seasoned, well-cooked, and plated in an attractive fashion.
Glad we found a taste similar to home out here in NoVA!
I highly recommend this place to anybody who wants a comfortable, inexpensive, very tasty...
Read moreThis is your typical "Mexican" restaurant / bar you find in strip malls and smaller shopping areas. We ordered for take out since we have a pandemic going on. The restaurant was closed so you order at the bar and take home with you. Our food was ready pretty quickly and was fresh and tasty. The steak tacos were delicious and the beef burrito should be called a mammoth steak burrito. It's a large portion and not made with hamburger meat like you find a lot of non-California places doing. I hate hamburger meat in any of my dishes. La Luna scored well with us and we will...
