Adriana’s Mini Market

Great to go place, tacos are amazing. Not that appealing of a eat in place. Not that fluent in English either but the food is worth it reguardless.

Best tacos you can get around here! The price is not bad either. Make sure you ask for both hot sauces because they are both awesome.

Born and raised in CA you are spoiled with authentic Mexican food. Being in the military has caused me to travel a lot and unfortunately have a tough time finding «real» Mexican food. This place is top notch in the Petersburg area– honestly it’s the only one I’d recommend going to! If you don’t want to drive to Richmond and are stiff at fort lee area this is the place to invest your money into. They also have a market! Tons of Latin products! Friendly service and a wide selection of dishes! Clean too!

I ordered tacos al pastor and a horchata. Both were excellent. This will be a regular lunch for me now!

I really really wanted to give this place a 5 and I would have on quality and taste of food but for me that is the icing on the cake. The service was below average. Not because they were rude and I speak Spanish so I was OK if she spoke Spanish to me but for one I ordered an Horchata (rice water) and she didn’t bring it out until I got my food. Only good thing about that was, I had something to drink with my food because if I had gotten first it wouldn’t had lasted so that did work out. After I received my food. No sight of anyone. I had to go look for someone to get a to-​go box and waited a bit to pay for my meal. I’ve done many years in jobs that provide customer service so it’s a bit important to me. As for the food. I’m from San Antonio and parents are Mexican and this is the best Mexican food I’ve had since I’ve been back home over 8 months ago. I had the green Enchiladas and the salsa verde was fresh and authentic. This is Authentic Mexican Food. Homemade tortilla chips and the salsa with that was even spicy. I’m use to salsa that just has tomatoes in it. I still highly recommend but have patience.

Driven by many times stopped in and ordered a torta a dish I get when I’m back home (central Cali) and it was really good I’m definitely coming back to try out the rest of their menu.

This is place is authentic as it gets! It’s delicious and good prices and best of all its military, police and firefighter friendly, 10% discount and its minutes outside ft lee

Went here the other day with a friend. Tiny spot, perfect for authentic cuisine. Chips aren’t your normal Mexican restaurant Chios. Thicker probably because they are hand made. Flour tortillas arent commercial either. Or if it is, I’m incredibly shocked! Everything is a bit spicier than what Virginians are accustomed to for Mexican food.
Enchiladas: chicken with the red sauce. Cheese on top. Mmmmmm.
Friend had the burrito and tacos asada. Everything was super delicious!

I only walked around the mini market. It was packed full of anything you can think to buy. I’m only here to write a review about the Taqueria next door. I’ve been here several times and they have very good authentic Mexican food.
I always order the chicken or pork tamales. They are fresh but it seems like they are made ahead of time then steamed when ready to order.
I also had the taco salad and it was delicious!
I highly recommend the tostadas. I get the chicken tostadas. You get three for 7.99 or one for 2.99.
They also give a military, fire, and police discount.
Call ahead if your in a hurry because everything is made to order.

The only Mexican joint we found that has the total package. Awesome coldas and salsa. Ordered the coldas De mariscos, best I have had in 10 years!

We just moved to Virginia from Los Angeles California and I’ve searched high and low for REAL Mexican food I saw other places people give five stars to and let me tell you ground beef in a taco is not Mexican!!! But at adriana they use real carne asada!!! Their food is delicious it reminds me of home just like my momma use to cook so if you’re looking for real Mexican food come to this place it’s awesome!!!

I gave them one star less cause they didn’t speak English. But the steak burrito I had was AMAZING.
The fact I had to try ordering it in the little spanish I knew was less than amusing.

Amazing and fast! Had the chicken Tamales and they were delicious, even got enough to package up half for lunch tomorrow! Don’t be fooled that its called a market on Unilocal,the attached restaurant is to die for!
Very basic tables in the back of the market but the authentic food is worth your while!

Quaint place with restaurant attached. I can get all my Mexican spices that aren’t normally sold at grocery stores.
