La Bodega 402 North 6th Avenue, Hopewell, VA 23860

"I'm from Texas (San Antonio). I had their Caldo de Res and a gordita. They were very good. My grandson's girlfriend had menudo. It had a good flavor but no hominy. My mom told me that some restaurants don't put hominy. I would order it next to I visit my son. BTW they have Mexican Pepsi and Coke in glass bottles. Those are the best!!"

"The food is great, loved the plantains! Tons of ice cream options, you can't go wrong. All the ones we had were delicious!"

"El Gordo (the restaurant attached to La Bodega) is such a good little spot. Plenty of menu options to choose from so there’s something for everyone! Beer selection is wonderful, they’ve got imports as well as domestic beers and seltzers. The soda selection is also incredible- even got a banana flavored soda! My partner got the chicken gorditas, and I got the hamberguesa; both came out relatively quickly (10-15min.) They also have a small fridge stocked with housemade salsas, cilantro, limes, pickled veggies, and more! I’ll definitely be back to try my way around the menu."

"Not very busy on a Sunday afternoon. Order placed and food delivered fast. Everything was so fresh. Pics are Tacos de Lengua, and spicy pork, with Alitas and beans and rice. Also got a perfectly made Michelada that washed it all down. Definitely will be back next time we are in Hopewell."

"Love this place. I ordered my 3 pork tacos with rice and black beans. It was $13. Not bad. So flavorful. The staff is friendly and welcoming. They also have paletas! And all my favorite Mexican treats I enjoyed as a kid."
