Reynosa Restaurant and Grocery

what an amazing hidden gem. we love to support mom and pop operations. ❤
We walked in at 7:45pm - they close at 8:30pm, the staff was welcoming, friendly and courteous spite it being so late. A wonderful Central American restaurant and market with many specialty staple items that can be found across all of Central American countries.

Limited seating capacity.
The bathrooms were spotless and smelled clean, plenty room in parking lot as well in this free standing establishment.

If you are looking for good food and want to try something new give this establishment a go (it's been open for 5 years)

we ordered 3 pupusas (a thick griddle cake or flatbread from Central America made with cornmeal or rice flour filled with melted cheese, refried beans and sometimes loroco (see below) or pork.)
- the revueltas/mixed come with beans, cheese and chicarron/pork, had great flavor, came hot and fresh, the dough was spot on and flavorful as well.
- the loca/crazy option comes with same ingredients as above plus loroco (a flower bud from Central America with a reminiscent taste of chard, artichoke, and asparagus mixed with a faint, floral sweetness), amazing combo! you don't find this everywhere even if pupusas are typically served, a unique menu item to this establishment.
The curtido (cole slaw but with vinegar instead of mayo) was absolutely delicious.

The sopa de res (beef soup) was one of the best I've had, flavorful, filling & served piping hot, it's filled with melt in your mouth beef chunks, corn, cabbage, carrots, squash and yucca, topped fresh cilantro and served with thick handmade tortillas, side of veggie rice and a wedge of lime. Definitely a hearty must try as the weather starts to cool down.

The tacos were wonderful as well - the al pastor had nice flavor although not a traditional wet mexican style, the carnitas were good as well also not a traditional style as the gelatinous pork skin chunks were not included, the lengua (tongue) was cooked a bit too well for personal preference but still good.

A mistake was made between ordering and food delivery but a welcome happy mistake it turned out to be, we order carne asada (grilled steak) tacos but a grilled steak platter arrived instead - well no problem! the steak had amazing flavor, it was fork tender sat on a bed of grilled tomatoesand onions, the red beans fantastic, the rice good and the avocado salad was a nice added touch, the dish is served with a side of thin corn tortillas as well.

To drink we order agua de marañon (cashew apple water - i say water loosely bc it's just a literal translation yet it can really be considered an ice tisane/tea) - it is yet another item that's not typically found in many places and uniquely found at this hidden gem. It's has a tart almost sour taste, think lemon head, drink that's sweetened.

I bet their breakfast is to die for!

Absolutely recommend and would stop in over and over again when passing through Winchester, Va.

The most authentic Mexican food I have ever had, they do offer a Tex mex version of each dish. Not much seating because it has shelves of groceries.

There's countless Mexican restaurants across the U.S. with the same menu, 50/50 on quality across the board. Reynosa absolutely knocked it out of the park with authentic el Salvadorian food. Small, 5 or so table restaurant with a grocery section, drive through. Friendly and helpful staff for us gringos and some of the most amazing food I've had in a while. 1 papusa is a meal. The chicken quesadilla.....outstanding. can't wait to try the whole menu

We stopped based on other reviews. The fajita dinner for two was amazing. We loved that the corn tortillas are made fresh, not pre-fab. The food taste was excellent. Drink choices are abundant. We already can't wait to try the Al Pastor tacos next trip!

This is a Mom and Pop food counter located inside a small Latino grocery store. The tacos are to die for. I had beef, carnitas (pork) and chicken tacos. They were all outstanding. They make pupusas one day of the week as a lunch/dinner special. They were not available on the day I was there, but if the tacos are any indication of the food, they too would be great! I look forward to trying them on another day. Very limited table space. This is a mostly to go food counter.

I highly recommend this restaurant. My husband and I have been desperately trying to find a truly authentic Mexican restaurant in Winchester and we did. Tacos are probably our favorite food but it’s so hard to find a good place that makes them. Their pupusas are absolutely delicious. We both got carnitas tacos and the pork was so tender and full of flavor. The rice and beans were seasoned perfectly. We were given chips and salsa when we sat down and even the salsa tasted amazing; homemade and addicting. We will definitely go here very often.

First off, I cannot recommend Reynosa enough. The food is always FANTASTIC at an extremely low cost. I mean, you could go to any other Mexican restaurant in Winchester, but you won’t find food as good or as affordable as Reynosa. Secondly, the service is always great. Even with my broken Spanish, I am able to receive great quality food and service from the ladies behind the desk. They are always so sweet and humorous. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. Please try Reynosa!

Authentic! Flet like I was back in TJ. Food was flavorful and portions were very generous. Prices were as expected And all staff were nice and welcoming. Snacks are authentic and delicious. Can't wait to come back.

Best Mexican restaurant in town. The lengua tacos were perfect, the cow foot stew delicious and my partner ( vegetarian) said the salad was the best he had.

Glad we tried this place and will definitely go again.

We come here once a week at least they have the best food around here my husband try to get me to try different places that he has had tacos at but nope these are the best I highly recommend this place very friendly and always good food have never been disappointed ever you need to try this place I give it 100 stars not 10

I love Reynosa Restaurant in Winchester. The food is so fresh and delicious. The prices are very good and fair. It’s a quiet little place with just a few tables. It’s like eating in a home kitchen, and it makes me feel warm and comfortable and good to hear mama Evelyn (the owner) talking away in the kitchen. Her voice is happy and soothing like a loving mother. Reminds me of eating at home when I was a child and listening to my mother talking happily in the kitchen. I love this place and I think you will too.
5 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 for sure !!!

Felt warm and welcomed as soon as we walked inside the restaurant. Great tasting food, loved the fajitas and tacos and beans with rice that came with.. Made me feel like family. If this is what you're looking for a warm place to peacefully eat and enjoy great food. This is the place.

Nice little seating area, decent speed, delicious food.

The owner of this business stopped by my home office yesterday, and mentioned that he owned this restaurant and I promised to stop in to check it out. SO GLAD HE DID!! Ordered the beef tacos, chicken tacos, and chicken quesadilla. Best quesadilla I have ever had, and the tacos have some incredible flavor as well. 10 out of 10 recommend!

I was a first time customer today and I tried the crunchy beef tacos. Seriously the best tacos I've EVER had. You will not be disappointed. I loved them so much I had to write a review right away.
The shells were made there fresh, the beef was really good quality and flavor and the cheese, lettuce and onions were so fresh. I can't wait to go back.

Very very pleased! Family owned small business with great food and groceries. Price was good and portions were big. Definitely would go again if I'm back around Winchester!

I love this restaurant! The crispy chicken tacos are so delicious. The staff is so darn friendly. The menu is pretty basic, but you're guaranteed to go home with a full, happy belly. And the price is definitely right.

By far the best Mexican/ Salvadoran food in the area. Their daily specials and even regular menu are very reasonable priced and their food quality and flavor are always high and consistent, hence why I'm there once to twice a week. The help is also always very friendly and welcoming. A must try: the Salvadoran pupusas, always ultra loaded with cheese and toppings!

Food was delicious. You have to try the cheese pupusas. And the tacos were the best I've had so far around here. The staff is very nice. Will definitely come again.

I normally don’t write reviews but I had to for Reynosa’s! AMAZING food! We had the steak tacos/chicken tacos with rice and beans, pupusas, and chips with cheese dip. It was our first time trying & we will definitely be back! Super convenient online ordering, they use their drive thru window for pick up, and the staff was SO friendly! If I could give 10 stars I would, thank you for great food & service!
