The food and service were fantastic! Restaurant is in the mall, so the outdoor seating area is a “mall watcher” view so the ambience is food court quality, but the food is not!! It’s a very sophisticated menu & not Tex-mex at all!! Highly recommend this spot!! We will be back! Worth the trip across the bridge for this hidden Tysons Corner gem!

No waiter came to our table for the first 20 minutes we sat there. Then there was confusion over who was our actual waiter. No one came to ask if we’d like another round of margaritas, or dessert, or much of anything. When they did check on us, they were quick to respond, it’s just that they didn’t check on us hardly at all. I will assume they were understaffed, because the staff we dealt with were courteous. Maybe they were overwhelmed? But that’s why we made reservations...

The food and drinks were great!

Everything was really flavorful

Overall gods experience.

Food and cocktails were delicious.

Pricing is fair.

Service average.

Great service! Upbeat staff! Clean and socially distanced! Resevation timeframe was good. Great atmosphere as well!

Super quick service!! Staff was friendly. Place was beautiful and a clean atmosphere.

Highly recommend for special occasions, birthdays, etc..

We went here for dinner at 6pm and all the food was so good and well prepared. The wait staff are really amazing, positive energy and professional service. I also wanted to specially thank the assistant manager Pedro for accommodating the cake I brought to surprise my girlfriend.

FYI: For anyone that comes to this place, order the carne asada from the Chef’s Special! You will not be disappointed.

The food is always amazing and the salsa is best I’ve ever had!

The food was great. Had a wonderful time. Would highly recommend.

Stands out from the rest in preparation and presentation form most Mexican fair.
You will not be disappointed.

Outstanding food and service. Need to dine here more often. Beautiful presentation and quality.

Restaurants are hurting during COVID, no doubt, and La Sandia is trying hard to go the extra mile and make people feel safe and at-home.

Food was not delicious it was just ok.

Very enjoyable. Food was excellent and so was service. They need cushions in the wooden chairs.

Great time, it was a reunion for my friends and I. The waiter was not pushy, gave us time to order.

The hostess was incredibly sweet, I even asked the hostess that was there when we left what the previous host name was and for the life of me I can not remember it might have been Leslie. Anyway she was super friendly and sweet and very welcoming.

Service was thrown off immediately because our server thought that the kitchen closed at 7:00pm even though my reservation was for 7:00pm. She rushed us to order including handing us menus in spite of the fact that it went against their COVID policy. She eventually told us that she was incorrect about the closing time just to follow up with bringing me the incorrect order. The food was subpar except for the crab guacamole. My first and last visit.

We usually go there for the beef fajitas. They change their menu and display when serving this item. There was no seasoning and it’s sad because it used to be consistent. I will likely not go back again

Awful should have gone to Taco Bell

Food does not taste the same as the last time we dined there (about 2 months ago). Quality and portions of food went down!
Waiter took too long to serve requests, such as bringing additional tortillas. I had to ask a bussboy to bring them.
Also, at the end, the waiter came with the bill. Reviewing the bill for a couple of seconds and found the total amount to be higher than expected ($140). Waiter was watching from behind my back, and immediately asked to pull the bill and correct it, that is without me asking him to do so. I have the suspicion that the waiter knew the bill was wrong and thought it will pass by the customer w/o noticing, but I could be wrong! Waiter came back with the correct bill afterwards. Not a good experience to have.

We were disappointed. We had enjoyed La Sandia in pre-Covid visits. We understood that menus are often limited right now. However, we found the portions small. The tortias for th fish tacos were soggy. In general the seasonings were lacking. Service was slow.

Great Food and good service.

Great food and service. The staff handled the covid policies very well making us feel comfortable while also checking in to make sure we had everything we needed.

Everything was fine except for the veggie enchiladas. Either too much vinegar or too much tomatillo in the sauce. Extremely sour tasting.

Great very good food and quite

Very delicious steak tacos, pork carnitas, and watermelon agua fresca. Always a great experience.

I previously dined at the restaurant a few times over the last 10 years and always enjoyed the food. However, as I have dined in many restaurants over the years, I realize that there isn’t very many options and no real creativity in the food as compared to other Mexican food restaurants. In addition, I came for brunch on a Saturday due to an email I received three weeks ago announcing bottomless brunch for $19.99 to only get there to find it it had been canceled due to customers not wanting it. In fact, the manager said that “over 60 people had walked out” because they wanted lunch and not brunch. Clearly, it was not introduced properly as every brunch venue I’ve been a patron of also offered a lunch menu as an option. The food has become lack luster and I don’t see myself as ever returning.

It’s hard for everyone during the Covid-19 distancing, but the staff did a nice job. My date and I enjoyed ourselves.

Excellent food, great service.....we will come back next year on our annual trip to NVA and DC

Great to be back and eating out at one of our favorites. Margaritas were great also.

We tried the new brunch it was excellent.

The food taste frozen and the waitress was very quiet with low energy.

We found the food exceptionally good. The server was friendly and timing of the meal was paced just right. My husband and I had the carnitas with sweet plantains on the side. Both were as good as any we’ve ever had. The couple with us felt the same way about their tacos and veggie fajitas. This is an excellent Mexican restaurant and we definitely plan to come again.

Chicken dishes were some of the worst; dry and bland

The food quality was very ordinary. I ordered a fajita and it was served in a plastic tray. It had a table spoon of guacamole and the fajitas were bathing in oil. It was really a disappointing experience and this thing costs $18 bucks. My wife had a similar experience on her dish. Not worth it.

Server was awesome.

The waitress was unfamiliar with the menu and the bar was slow to make our drinks.

First time for brunch here and service was great! Had a passion fruit, a blood orange mimosa the burrito! Very good!!

Food was not too tasty and not alot of options. Sangria was juice, didn't really taste like wine or any liquor. Appetizer was small but they gave you chips with salsa. Decor was old.

Food was cold well at least mine was. My family really liked it. Service could be better but I think the waiter was new so we understand. Food was really cold tho but starving so just ate wish I would’ve brought it up.

I've eaten here before and it's been hit or miss - this last time was a miss. This was on a 3-day weekend on a Sunday evening at 7:15 following a movie. The place was not crowded at all and we were seated first by the bar. There were 3 in our party and we asked to be moved to a quieter location - they were seating everyone near the front by the bar to make the place look busier than it was. Service wasn't fast, but it wasn't slow either - just...there. I ordered a draft beer which arrived several minutes later and the beer was flat - probably near the end of the keg - but a bit disappointing. Next I ordered the 3 street tacos - 3 different types -what I ended up being served was 3 chicken tacos - none of the tacos I ordered were chicken. My wife ordered carnitas - they came back a few minutes later and told her they were out of carnitas but had ...you guessed it - chicken....so, this visit was not one for the ages....the next time I want to go to a restaurant following a flick, I think I'll try a different place - this one has played out for me
