Guad's on Granby

Great food and close to home.

Every thing was great! The drinks were so delicious and the staff and especially the bar tender was great and very nice! My boyfriend and I came here for the first time and will definitely be coming back!!!

Guad's on Granby seems like a nice new addition to Ward's Corner. They just moved into this location over the holidays, but they've been building business in the area pretty steadily; I'd already heard a few people recommend stopping in before we decided to meet some friends here for dinner and drinks. I was pretty pleased with the whole experience; the food was solid, the service was great and we left full and cheerful.

We got in and found the restaurant to be pretty quiet; there's a lot of space but only a few tables were busy. The interior was pleasant but a bit generic; the walls were pretty but a few exposed ducts around the bar looked a bit out of place. I don't fuss too much about decor, though; if the food is good, that's all I want.

We each had a pre-dinner margarita.... they're a bit pricy, but approximately the size of your face, so well worth it, in my opinion. Everyone enjoyed their meals, which were out reasonably quickly. I had a plate of mexican enchiladas, which I definintely recommend, but no one had any complaints about what they had, either.

Compared with the other Guadalajara locations, I don't think you'll see much difference, really; this location was a bit more subdued than, say, Virginia Beach, but since the restaurant was mostly empty, I can't say I'm surprised.
All-in-all, if you're looking for mexican in this area, this is a pretty good option. Mexican good isn't Norfolk's strong suit, for sure, but this is a pretty competitive choice.
