This is a solid restuarant in a pretty small town, so that's saying something. They had a lot of food options, and a very nice selection of beers, mixed drinks and liquors. Service was a bit slow, but good otherwise and it might have been an off night. Would recommend.

I'd been wanting too try Reyes Taqueria & Cantina since it opened and finally got the opportunity the other day when a friend invited me there for lunch. I was not disappointed! The food was top notch! MY friend & I both got their Birria Tacos with rice and refried beans, which was absolutely delicious. The service was also excellent, with our server ensuring our drinks never went empty and our experience was 5 star! I highly recommend stopping in and giving it a try!

I love this place! I'm visiting from AZ and stopped into Reyes with a friend last night. We tried the Jamaica tea, steak burrito, taco salad, and blackberry margarita. Everything was amazing! I'm so happy to find good Mexican food here in Gallipolis, OH. The atmosphere, service, music, food and drinks will bring us back again and again. Gracias

Love the mummy shrimp appetizer. Bacon wrapped and perfectly seasoned. I get something different every time I'm there, and it's all good. They have a extensive bar with several tequila and bourbon options for those who want a nice cocktail with dinner. The atmosphere is authentic, and casual enough to bring the kids if you want. The parking lot is very small, but there is plenty of street parking.

Throughout the Southern Ohio region, I have tried every Mexican restaurant.This place tops all with the authenticity of actual street tacos. And overall great customer service

We love Mexican food. We actually thought the restaurant was closed because the front was set back with the parking lot directly in front. I like this setting, but should put a better lit sign at the street. Everything was great. The atmosphere was very welcoming. My only complaint, the waitress never asked of it wanted corn or flour tortillas with my meal, so what was with my meal was flour. I love authentic-style Mexican foods, BUT only with corn tortillas. I travel for food and sightsee along the way. This place, Reyes, is very good.
