That Mexican Place

That Mexican Place is a rather new restaurant offering "authentic Mexican cuisine" at reasonable prices. I've ordered carry out (they also have a nice dining area) and have been very pleased - tasty, large portions. In the restaurant, margaritas, wines, and a variety of Mexican and domestic beers are available. That Mexican Place, the only Mexican restaurant on the island, is popular among locals - also a good sign. They started out as "Don Valerio's" but changed the name to reflect how locals were referring to the restaurant. (They don't appear on my Restaurant Listings page yet since that list includes only restaurants that are members of the Chincoteague Chamber of Commerce.)
Location: 5030 Chicken City Road (just off Maddox Blvd.)
