Raul's Mexican Grill

My husband and I dined at Raul's on both Friday and Saturday nights. Friday was stellar, the food was delicious and the service was top notch. On Saturday, we arrived at a busy time. We asked to be seated outside and the young man who was hostessing took my phone number and said we would be called when the table was available. A table for four (2 tables for 2 pushed together) was available for the entire one hour and 15 minutes that we waited. I asked the host why the two tables couldn't be separated since no one was sitting at them and he said they were reserved for parties or three or four. Unfortunately for us and for them, no party of three or four arrived. So our very positive impression of Raul's Mexican grill was tainted by our long wait for a table for two while two paired tables that had been placed together sat empty the whole time we waited. The point of sitting outside was to listen to the live music coming from a neighboring restaurant, but by the time we sat down, the live music had ended. The food was still delicious and our waitress was good. It was simply poor management to allow satisfied customers to sit on a bench for more than an hour rather than separate two outdoor tables.

Delicious fresh made chips and salsa. Tasty lemon drop martini and a great avocado and goat cheese salad. Good company, Good times, great place!

This place has fantastic food. The guacamole is to die for and the margaritas are even more so. The restaurant has a good ambiance and very friendly waitstaff

I'm used to Mexican food in Virginia and further south, but I really wanted tacos while we were walking around my childhood home town. So we stopped in and say at the bar. The food was definitely not like down south, but it was FULL of flavor and, considering we tried 4 different renditions of their tacos between the 3 of us, everything was cooked perfectly! Great, friendly staff as well!
