La Joya Mexican - Charlottesville

Hey, guys. This is a great place for family dinning. I recommend the California Burrito, filled with steak and French good old sour cream and hot sauce. I also tried to fill the rolls that are rolled crispy tacos with either chicken or steak. They even told me that they will make a new record called Arron con pollo frito that I want to try. Thanks again for wonderfully fulfilling service.

Very tasty and consistent. My wife and I meet here for lunch occasionally and are always happy with the food and service. The price is also good for the quality and quantity of food. Overall, we have eaten dozens of times here and still have a complaint.

Authentic home cooking in a Maya tradition. If you want Tex'Mex, you won't find it here, but this food reminds me of the local hangouts in Yucatan and Guatemala. Key here is authentic not unusual, only hearty and very tasteful.

It was not bad, but it was not great and has prices that are unusually high for Mexican/Latin restaurants. I had the ChoriPollo and the spices were pretty good, but the chicken was overcooked. Two friends had a burrito, and I found them pretty awful, even worse than the price was considered. Rice was base and nothing else was particularly impressive. This could be a 4 restaurant if they lowered their prices, but for now it remains a steady 3.

The food was just ok, didn't seem like a lot of love went in it if you know what I mean. It did take us a while to get our food once we ordered and the chips tasted a little stale
