🚨 POS SYSTEM DOWN? NO PROBLEM. 🚨

We’re going FULL throwback MODE at Gringo’s. 💵🧾🔥

For over 20 years, this community has shown us love and we know being closed since last Friday is killing y’all!❤️🌮

We’ve heard you loud and clear via calls, texts, and DMs with concern and curiosity. So, the wait is over.🫶💪

Starting NOW:
✅ Handwritten tickets

So pull up old school style:
🌮 Bring your appetite

🍹 Bring your people
🔥 Bring the energy

No excuses. No quitting. Just tacos, tequila, and tenacity.

We had a truly unforgettable guest at the restaurant recently — the real Captain Richard Phillips stopped in to dine with us!

For those who may not know, Captain Phillips is an American hero whose incredible bravery during the 2009 Maersk Alabama hijacking inspired the movie Captain Phillips, where Tom Hanks portrayed him. His courage under pressure and selflessness in protecting his crew is something the world won’t forget.

It was such an honor to serve him, and we’re proud to say he loved our chicken enchiladas — and went through three bowls of salsa while he was here! 🌶️

Moments like this remind us how special it is to meet people whose stories have made such an impact. We’re grateful he chose to spend some time with us, and we’ll definitely be telling this story for years to come.

Thank you, Captain Phillips, for your bravery — and for dining with us!

Family truly showed up this weekend ❤️

While Yubi and Larry are enjoying a well-deserved vacation in London, my siblings stepped in to keep the restaurant running tonight. It meant a lot to work side by side with family, just like the old days — laughing, helping each other, and making sure every guest felt taken care of.

We’re so grateful for the amazing customers who came out and supported us this weekend. Your kindness, patience, and smiles made it all worth it.

From our family to yours, thank you for a great weekend. We loved serving you and look forward to seeing you again soon! 🍽️

Sometimes love shows up in the most unexpected places… like inside a tomato. 🍅❤️

While prepping in the kitchen today at Gringos, we sliced into this tomato and found a perfect little heart waiting for us. It felt like the kitchen was reminding us of something simple but important.

At Gringos, loving what we do means more than just making food. It’s the early mornings, the laughter in the kitchen, the music playing while we prep, the care we put into every plate, and the pride we feel when we serve our community. It’s about cooking with heart, working as a team, and making sure every guest feels that same love when they sit down to eat.

So today’s little heart-shaped tomato felt pretty fitting. ❤️

Good food, good people, and a whole lot of love in the kitchen

I told them we wanted fresher ingredients… they said “how fresh?” 🍅😂

If this tomato gets any bigger, it’s going to start asking for its own section on the menu.

Come see us Saturday night for drinks, laughs, and slightly smaller produce. 🍹 Larry, behind the bar and ready to make your weekend a good one.

And hey — don’t forget to vote! Voting ends March 8th. We’d love your support for Best Mexican Restaurant and Best Drinks at bestof.coastalvirginiamag.com.

We appreciate you all more than you know. Thank you for letting us be part of this neighborhood for two decades. ❤️

See you tonight.
