“Just to clarify for everyone they used to have a restaurant until university of MD bought the complex back in Oct and evicted everyone so they can knock it down and build dorms. They have food trucks currently and hopefully will have a restaurant again. By far the best tacos I've had in MD in the last 20 years.“
“This taco truck is located on 14th St in Arlington,Virginia, right off of Rt. 50 West. Not only are the tacos here delicious but the customer service is very good. The few times I drove by this food truck I noticed pretty decent customer lines which led me to believe this place sold delicious tacos. However on this day I was in luck because the truck did not have a line, on a Saturday evening. I could smell the grill as I crossed the street on my way to the truck. The ordering process was very easy and efficient. On this occasion I ordered Asada (beef) and Pastor (pork) tacos to-go. The tacos were full-flavor and delicious. Overall this was a good taco truck experience and one which I will try again when in the area. Give them a shot for your next taco experience.“
“PhoWheels, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways. PhoWheels has consistently amazing food, the friendliest staff in the world, and a totally unique fusion concept. I've had the pork belly tacos twice, the bo-khirria banh mi, and I just barely managed to make myself not order the pork belly tacos a third time so that I could try the oxtail pho tacos. Their pho was absolutely delicious - I liked it even more than the bo kho - and there was such a generous amount of oxtail in the tacos that I scooped part of it directly into the pho and just ate both dishes that way. Their meat is always so tender and well-seasoned. Their roti is perfect - so buttery and soft and flaky. It's worth every penny, and I'm always trying to convince people to try it. You won't regret it! Fair warning that the seating is all outdoors, so plan to get the food to go when the weather isn't nice, but it's a really convenient location right by the metro with plenty of parking around, so it's easy to get to, and the food travels well in my opinion. Eventually I'll manage to try everything on the menu, or maybe just order the pork belly tacos 14 more times.“
“This place is SO good - you can tell the food is made with love. I had three tacos (duck, beef, pork) and all were delicious + the meat was super tender. We also had key lime pie which was awesome. The guy at the front was so nice and provided great service (I think he is the chef/owner?). Can’t wait to come back and bring people here!“
“What fast/casual place does hand made tortillas?!? Delicious and interesting food, chill vibes/staff, and celiac safe! 11/10, will come back and try the rest of the menuVegetarian options: Tons of options, all of which are incredibleDietary restrictions: Celiac safe!!!! Always great to not worry“
“Had a great happy hour at Tequila & Mezcal! $8 mezcalitas, $10 tacos (3 per order), etc. the tacos were really good as well! The chicken was deceptively strong, and the Al Pastor was delish. I’d 100% come back again to try more of their delicious food.“
“Came here with my family for tacos were really try and give me only one lemon for for three tacos. The quesadillas were really good. They really big the drinks are for die for the food the sandwiches are not good, but they’re not that bad either the fries are hard“
“It's a really nice place to go. Had a date with my wife here. Really one of those rare places you love to support. The food is great and the service too. Great option for carry out if you don't want to eat outside. My wife said awesome date ?? ? ?“
“The food is pretty enjoyable. Reasonable prices for DC. Staff is really nice and friendly. I come here about once a month and it's a spot where I will happily take friends who are visiting. It's a cool vibe outside, I would recommend expecting to wait in line on a weekend night.“
“I took my husband here for a birthday lunch. He ordered the fish and chips and I ordered the salmon avocado salad. Both were amazing!! The salad had fresh ingredients and even the dressing tasted homemade. The fish and chips were fried to perfection and melted in your mouth. Service was excellent and we were made to feel right at home. The restaurant was clean and inviting and I can’t wait to return once the outdoor patio is open. Many thanks to the owners for making my husband’s birthday special and ensure he felt celebrated.“
“The food is remarkable! Everything we ordered, we ordered in the "all Vegan" version; vegan enchiladas, vegan nachos, vegan mushroom taco, vegan butternut squash taco. All this food was absolutely delicious. Can't wait to order from Chaia again.“
“Visited this place based on reviews. The place was very small with 4 tables and 8 chairs to sit and eat mostly functioning as a take out place/cloud kitchen. The food was great but not amazing. Their tacos had good options and the nachos were really nice.“
“Stumbled upon this place when trying to find some late lunch and was pleasantly surprised! We didn’t try the juices, but the tacos were so good and for pretty decent prices. It’s nice to sit outside when the weather is pleasant too. Will definitely be coming back!“
“SERVICE: Our server was friendly and helpful in answering our questions and providing recommendations from the menu based on our preferences. Very professional and she was always around when we needed anything.FOOD: If you like chicken nachos you should try these. They put the right amount of cheese, chicken, jalapenos, guac, every ingredient pairs perfectly. I had the chicken enchilada and my husband the chicken tacos. The plates are smaller in size than expected but still delicious and filling..ATMOSPHERE: The ambience of the restaurant is very inviting and comfortable. The indoor dining area is to the left when you walk in, the bar in the middle and outdoor seating. Very nice.Overall we will visit this establishment again!“

“I almost didn’t want to write this because this truck has become my BEST kept secret lol but I can’t deny them a worthy review. The food is SO DAMN GOOD!!!!!!! Fresh, quality, seasoned ingredients, GENEROUS HEFTY PORTIONS, & literally EVERYTHING IS DELICIOUS!!! I’ve gotten their steak taco bowl, chicken taco bowl, carne asada tacos, pupusas, steak quesadillas, burritos, made to order and everything was loaded with meat, fresh veggies, delicious condiments and sides. Even their sour cream is perfect & I don’t even like sour cream that much.I love it here!!!!!!!!! Side note: they are so hardworking and sweet, they’ve even been open during inclement weather, which I have thanked them for profusely. I will keep supporting this business ever chance I get as I could eat here everyday happily.“
“The food is fantastic. I had the shrimp, steak and chicken tacos. The sauces that came with the tacos are super good. I also had the taco dip, which was also amazing. I took some back to my staff and everyone loved it. We have found a new lunch spot.“
“In the hallowed halls of gastronomy,Where tweed-clad scholars gather,Amidst oak-paneled walls and leather-bound books,Lies a secret whispered among the cognoscenti.Behold, the burrito—an enigma wrapped in parchment,A culinary symphony of maize and meat,Its savory notes resonate through ivy-covered quads,As if Hemingway himself had penned its recipe.The tortilla, a golden diploma unfurled,Cradles the treasures within—a calculus of flavors,Black beans, like ancient runes, inscribed with spice,Avocado, the verdant promise of summer's yield.And there, nestled in the folds, the pièce de résistance:Carnitas, slow-cooked to perfection,Their tender confessions echoing across generations,A clandestine rendezvous of taste and tradition.As the clock chimes midnight in the dining hall,We raise our silver forks to this scholarly feast,For the burrito, my dear companions,Is the thesis of sustenance—a dissertation of delight.“
“We loved this place!!! Chose HiFi based on the Yelp reviews and realized when we arrived that this is actually a food hall type venue called The Roost. I'll be reviewing the whole place. The ambiance is incredible, and the way it flows is ingenious. You sit down, scan a QR code with your phone, and are able to order from any of the multiple eateries in the space. Place your order online and then waitstaff brings your order over from any/all of the restaurants. Honestly, I ordered from multiple spots- HiFi, the bar, the sushi spot- and all of our food was absolutely phenomenal. I will be back for sure the next time we're visiting DC!“
“First time here & it did not disappoint! The gentleman who took our order was extremely patient and attentive. The food was really good. Good portions & presentation. One of the better taco spots in the area for sure! Will definitely be back.“
“I just had the mixed grill fajita tonight and it was incredible, the chicken and beef are the cats meow. The customer service is the best, the staff are so friendly and generous. I haven’t actually been to the store yet, but met staff at the food truck the week before last and one of our housemates also raves about the service. So glad J and J came to Mount Rainier!“
“The burritos are great here: fresh ingredients wrapped in a beautiful, almost polished, tortilla.Chilled Jarrito sodas sold here too.I was surprised to find this is a food truck in a quasi-permanent installation near a gas station, but don't let that stop you. And, there is a suitable sit-down space across the street and the Takoma Junction community area including a covered area.One suggestion to the restaurant: add some more sauce options; my personal favorite is chipotle sauce ?“
“Absolutely amazing dinner at El Techno for my birthday. Vibes were immaculate, birria ramen bomb was in the top 5 things I've ever eaten. Staff were friendly and helpful, but didn't hover, absolutely perfect. Margaritas were delicious. The owner, Louie, came by and introduced himself and made sure everything was great. Honestly couldn't ask for a better dinner for the price.“
“It was a beautiful early springlike day when I dined here so I requested a table outside. The food was delicious - I had the brussel sprouts appetizer and the chicken tagine. Excellent flavors in both. My server was very kind and helpful. I splurged on the crunch bar dessert which was delightful! I will definitely return for another meal.“
“This hole in the whole is located inside Super Best International market. And, they have the best tacos! I mean wait everything on the menu is absolutely delicious! Everything is freshly made! It's usually just 1 or 2 people working so when you go be patient everything is made to order and you can taste it! I love coming here for something refreshing and delicious“
“The tacos here, a silent gold, steep in price,Yet in their flavors, they roll the dice.Greatness in each bite, a culinary flood,But the cost whispers too loud, thuds in the bud.Four stars they earn, not without strife,For the bill that comes, sharpens like a knife.A feast for the palate, yet the wallet's tight,In this dance of taste and cost, a nuanced fight.“
“This is a priceless spot. The staff is so warm and welcoming. Sit at the bar if you can. The drinks are fantastic, the food is right out of a Mexico City kitchen on a Saturday night. The posole almost made me cry, it was absolutely perfect. If you're aware of what flavors taste like after being slowly developed, you'll love this place. The decor also reminds me of someone's kitchen. Beautiful, colorful, but unpretentious and comfortable.“
“Checked out Trippy Tacos, and received the Birria Pupusas, and ordered a Horchata!The good: I really enjoyed the Birria Pupusas, as it was hot and fresh, and it tasted really good with the consomé that came with the dish, as I dipped it in for each bite. The horchata was refreshing, and it was helpful to cool down the steaming hot birria pupusas in my mouth.Overall, I would definitely return to this place, and check out the other dishes, as well as order the Birria Pupusas again!“
“Can't decide between tacos or pupusas? Get both! Elvira's is the spot. Service is quick and the food is authentic. The pupusas were hot and packed nicely, so they traveled well. Others in my party got a bunch of different tacos- carnitas, chicken and a few others and everyone loved them! Will definitely be back.“
“I love this place. I will forget about it for a few weeks and then visit and remember how much I love it. The food is excellent, the drinks are good (Michelada is my go-to), and I've always had great service. My favorites- puffy blue chips with queso, Key West fish taco, fried Avocado taco, and the Puffy beef taco. All delicious though, can't go wrong.“
“First time going there, definitely not my last. Excellent dive restaurant for a quick bite. I love the mis of Mexican and Asian food in a plate. Ordered tacos (Grilled pork, spicy chicken and the steak). Price was excellent and it was definitely filling. Highly recommend!“
“Local and authentic Pupusería. $6 for 2. Fresh and made to order, lots of options but I went with just bean and cheese and cheese. Service was friendly and fast. The restaurant is small on the inside but there's a pretty large outdoor covered patio. Definitely recommend and would be interested in their other offerings.“
“Currently addicted to the enchiladas with green salsa, though the red is fantastic as well. The bean burrito is a must try, and their refries beans and rice are perfect. Prices are so reasonable, especially for the area and to go orders are made super quickly!“
“These are some of the best tacos I’ve ever had in my life. Only reason I’m giving 4 stars is because they are STINGY with the sauces and with the family tacos deals they force you to choose 3 meats which limits people like me who don’t eat pork or beef.“
