" Not the best experience. The food was mediocre at best, lacking the zing of freshly made Mexican dishes. The service was okay, but I expected more with all the good reviews I’d read. I didn't find the portions to be satisfying, which left me feeling a little cheated. I wouldn't recommend this restaurant honestly. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our recent visit to Virgie's left us craving for more! The tortillas were made fresh, and you could really taste the difference. I ordered the pork chop dinner, which was succulent and well-seasoned. The atmosphere had a nice diner feel, invoking a sense of comfort and nostalgia. The only downside was the wait time for food which was a bit long, but the flavors made up for it. We’ll be back again for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" We stumbled upon Virgie's during our road trip, and it was a delightful surprise! The homemade tortillas were a standout, truly adding to the authenticity of the dishes. I ordered the enchiladas, and they were deliciously spicy—exactly what I was looking for! The ambiance felt warm and inviting, and our server was friendly, checking in on us regularly. Definitely a place I'd remember and revisit if ever in the area again. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had heard mixed things about Virgie's but decided to give it a try. The atmosphere was homey, and while the food came out quickly, I found the salsa to be a bit bland compared to what I expected. The waitress was polite but it took a while for our orders to be taken, which was disappointing. Still, the chicken fajitas were decent, albeit a bit overpriced for the portion size. I might try again if I'm nearby, hoping for a better experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Initially, I was excited about coming to Virgie’s after reading its reviews. Unfortunately, my experience fell short. The food was more greasy than flavorful, which was a letdown. There was a definitive lack of authenticity that I was looking for in Mexican cuisine. The waitress was courteous but seemed overwhelmed. Sadly, I wouldn’t recommend this place despite its good ratings, as it didn’t meet my expectations. " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I visit Virgie's, I leave with a full stomach and a happy heart! Their breakfast menu is just as enticing as lunch and dinner. I tried their huevos rancheros, and it was nothing short of perfect. The service was prompt—my coffee cup never went empty! A great choice for family gatherings, you'll feel right at home here! " (*Curated Review*)

" Upon entering Virgie's, I noticed a warm atmosphere with an aroma of delicious food wafting through the air. The enchiladas were creatively prepared, but the spice level was on the milder side for my liking. Service was attentive without being overwhelming, making for a pleasant dining experience overall. I appreciated the effort put into the plating and presentation as well! " (*Curated Review*)
