“I recently had the pleasure of visiting Los Caballeros for their weekend brunch and I must say, it was a truly delightful experience.As soon as I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles from the staff and the owner himself. The ambiance of the restaurant was inviting and had a laid-back vibe, perfect for a lazy weekend brunch.Now let's talk about the food. Los Caballeros proved to be a pleasant surprise. They were able to accommodate options for vegetarians, vegans, and pescatarians. But what truly stole the show for me were the drinks. I highly recommend trying their pitcher of tamarindo margarita. It was the perfect blend of sweet and tangy, and definitely hit the spot. They also had other options like mimosas and bloody marys for those who prefer a classic brunch drink.The owner, who was also our server, was incredibly friendly and attentive. He made sure we were enjoying our meal and even gave us some recommendations for their signature dishes. It was evident that he takes great pride in his restaurant and wants his customers to have a memorable experience.To end our brunch on a sweet note, we decided to try their dessert. And let me tell you, it was the perfect ending to a perfect meal.Overall, my experience at Los Caballeros was exceptional. From the food to the drinks to the service, everything was top-notch. I highly recommend checking them out for their weekend brunch or even for a regular meal. The owner and his team have truly created a welcoming and enjoyable dining experience for their customers. So next time you're in the mood for some delicious food, head over to Los Caballeros and treat yourself to a delightful brunch. You won't regret it.Parking: This area of parking gets very busy due to being right beside the area of the Capitol.“
“Great Breakfast Taco!Visited this place on a Saturday around 11:30 AM. There was a line and we waited about 25 minutes before ordering. Once we ordered, we got the Tacos relatively fast ~5 minutes.I like that the menu is not too broad. These are breakfast tacos, all of them with a soft flour tortilla. They serve 8 different Tacos. I did not know if the tacos were big and I was hungry so I went big and ordered 6. In the end I was able to eat just 4 of them.I think the salsa is something they can improve. I am not fan of the creamy salsas so the cilantro was meh. The charred tomato was just OK.If I come back I would do just 3 and it has to be: 956, Tio Willie and 513.Vegetarian options: There is a Bean Taco: El Frijolito. Not that good.“
“We had an awesome dinner tonight celebrating my birthday. I love the food and service at this restaurant every time we have been here but tonight was extra special. Our server Valeria was so quick, friendly and charming! All the servers sang to me at the end and gave me the most delicious cake!“
“My family and I celebrated my sister's birthday at El Aguila this weekend and we had so much fun! The food was delicious and cooked perfectly, the workers were organized and served the food to 64 guests quickly and without any problems. I would recommend El Aguila to those looking to celebrate a special occasion. The restaurant has plenty of space for events large or small. Guadalupe really did a great job communicating from the beginning of the reservation to the end. Thank you for making this day even more special!My family and I celebrated my sister's birthday in El Aguila this weekend and we had a lot of fun!

“I dropped in on an early Monday evening for take-out and had a drink while I waited. They have some pretty awesome menu items and it was quite difficult for me to chose. I opted for the veggie chimichanga. I ordered a margarita, snacked on some chips and delicious salsa and enjoyed the wait. After I dug in at home, I was pleasantly pleased with the presentation of my food along with the tastiness. It was amazing! I couldn't believe I've lived in the area my whole young adult years and never been there! Definitely a place to keep in your pocket!“
“The food was amazing! Very delicious, huge portions, interesting take on texmex. Great job ??Service was friendly, but unprofessional. First they made us wait for a booked! table for a half an hour, they they forgot to bring sides… hope it was only our experience, and they usually do better ??♂️“
“Service was excellent. The food isn’t bad either. I need to give them a try because I got something out of the ordinary. If you end up getting fries like I did, they’re terrific. A chimichanga is next on my list. It’s definitely worth the stop.“
“This past weekend I hosted a birthday party at Mission Navy Yard. The staff was fantastic, providing my group with a private room, bartender, bathroom, and outside patio area. Mission Navy Yard responded to all emails and questions promptly and we experienced no issues throughout our experience. Would definitely recommend!“
“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.“
“The food at this place is out of this world and probably one of the best Mexican food I have ever eaten. The service was impeccable. Our server Flora could not be more attentive and sweet. We will definitively come back next time we visit our son in college.“
“Great place to stop for some delicious Mexican-style food while out and about touring Capitol Hill! Portions are large, staff is friendly, and lots of menu options are available. There are only about ten stools for inside dining but is convenient enough to grab as take out and picnic someplace along the hill. Taco salads, quesadillas, and pork tacos are amazing!“
“Happened past on a Tuesday at dinner time. I am so thankful we stopped in. The food was delicious, portion sizes were great, and it all came out hot. The atmosphere was phenomenal and the staff from start to finish were friendly and professional. This will be a favorite location and I can't wait to share with visiting family and friends.“
“Have been in and out of that Exxon many times, and never even considered eating here. I was hungry and grabbed a chicken quesadilla to go. It was one of the best quesadillas I've ever had, have since been back and gotten the steak and some other things. The cheese pulls are ridiculous. Hidden Gem!“
“I've been coming here for what 3? 5? 6 years now? I always get the same thing and it's always perfect. There's one thing can be said for amazing food, it's a completely different thing when talking about amazing consistency. I've never, ever had a steak quesadilla or sangria as amazing as they make them here. It's simple, steak, cheese, and tortilla. It's so simple, but the flavors and taste are simply unmatched. Perfection. Service is just AMAZING. I think the phrase comfort food gets thrown around quite a bit, but I make a point to come 2-4 times a month because as I described to my partner, the food just evokes emotion. Reassurance, acceptance, warmth, winning, and just contentment, when I get a steak quesadilla from Guapos on Wisconsin Ave, I just know whatever is going on in my life, it's going to be okay.The sangria is unmatched. I tried various sangrias around D.C. and this is definitely my number 1. Their Tres Leches cake is also a treat when I'm in the mood for dessert.“
“Great spot for a large party, amazing service and delicious food. Wine by the bottle is very reasonable and cocktails are well made.The sense of humor is delightful as demonstrated with the photo hung in the bathroom in a place that is sore to catch your eye ?“
“Uno Más is an authentic Mexican Kitchen. The service, food, prices, and hospitality is superb. The food is true, authentic, Mexican cuisine. While the atmosphere is not that of a 5 star restaurant the food, and drinks surely makes up for it all. 10/10 I recommend anyone who love Mexican cuisine to try Uno Más!!“
“I really enjoyed eating at Samantha’s! I was so surprised to walk in and see a lot of families eating in there, which told me this was a popular spot with potentially a lot of returning customers. We ordered the argentine steak that was supposed to come with a chimichurri sauce but didn’t appear present on the steak, more so “flavored” chimichurri I guess.. and I ordered beef and ribs fajitas. The rice and beans were really good and tasty. I enjoyed my beef fajitas, but the ribs were a little too saucy and more American bbq tasting than Latino style. I see that they have a pork ribs entree on the menu which I may try next time to see if they’re any but different than the fajitas.I really liked that they had a large menu with many options so we can try different stuff each time we come back. Will be returning soon with local family!“
“Great food and great service! Love the chip and dips they served. I also love how servers were making sure that we had everything we needed. And when we asked for more additions toppings, they didn't hesitate to bring more! Definitely recommend the fajitas with steak! My new favorite!“
“I got a bowl and it was delicious. The food was fresh, especially the lettuce. The salsa de habanero was hot and added to the meal. It wasn't so hot it caused discomfort. Can't wait to order again. I had delivery so I can't speak on the atmosphere.“
“I've been a loyal customer of Las Placitas for over two decades! I've followed them from their old location to their new location here in Navy Yard. Their food never disappoints and it's a place you can come to whine down. Don Jose is the face of the restaurant and he's one of the main reasons I always come back! I couldn't recommend this place enough“
“My teenage son is rarely able to eat out at restaurants due to severe food allergies. We were thrilled at finding that he could safely order a delicious meal from Surfside Taco Stand! Many thanks to the staff and cooks who made his evening really special! @ Surfside Taco Stand - The Wharf - 33 District Square SouthwestDietary restrictions: The staff was super accommodating to my son's severe food allergies! They asked perceptive questions, double checked things, and gave good suggestions. So happy and grateful that he could eat safely! He ordered the plain chicken tacos with lettuce and cherry tomatoes. It also came with plain rice and a lime slice. [Allergies: eggs, dairy, soy, treenuts, peanut, sesame, legumes, wheat]“
“Was pleasantly surprised with our meal here. Carne asada had good flavor, and service was good even on a busy night. Some negatives were that the taquitos sinaloa were plain tasting, and the table salsa was watery/lacking flavor. Having lived in Montgomery County for 10 years, Uncle Julio's in Rio Gaithersburg has been my family's go-to for Tex Mex over the years. We've not liked the direction they've gone recently with their menu or pricing practices, so hopefully Villa Maya can remain a great alternative for the foreseeable future.“
“This neighborhood gem is still running strong! The service is great! The food exceeds expectations! They really did make us feel like family. Who knew this was still possible in 2024! PS, Best spot for people watching on the patio btw. Highly recommended!“
“Great experience. The place is a bit small but wasn’t overcrowded even for a Saturday evening. The people service was fast and very accommodating, I guess that’s the plus side of only having a few tables to service. The atmosphere was nice, and the food was affordable. The only downside is I wish they had happy hour on Saturdays. Most happy hour these days are Mon- Sat if not everyday. It could bring more revenue for the establishment to have happy hour for a few hours on the weekend“
“Only negative, really, was that the service was a little slow, but it was Monday. Still, no mistakes on what we ordered and everything came out quickly, hot, or cold as appropriate, and looked nice too.I haven't had enchiladas in years, and gave theirs a shot. Ordered the Cozumel Enchiladas and they were very good. Nicely caramelized cheese on the plate and the beans and rice were also very good. Excellent Mai Tai and a full pour on my beer.This place is large and has a sports bar vibe but the food a drinks are above average so don't worry about getting your money's worth here.10/10 would enchilada again“
“Parking wasn’t bad, but I might have gotten lucky. Worst case scenario, you park a 4-5 minute walk away.Was sat immediately. The place is HUGE. Don’t think that it’s not worth going if you don’t have a reservation.By huge, I mean 3 expansive floors, an outdoor seating area, and an indoor rooftop deck.I sat with a friend at the table furthest from the rooftop entrance. Cool view of the strip outside, and close to the bar.The food and drinks came out alarmingly fast. I had the crab and shrimp quesadilla, which quite literally came out in 4-5 minutes.The quesadilla had a good meat to cheese ratio (40:60) and was portioned well. It wasn’t soggy, which a lot of quesadillas have problems with, and paired well with the tomatoes, jalapeños and guacamole that came on the side. 10/10The chips and salsa that came on the house were standard. The chips could use seasoning, and the salsa was the watery type, which isn’t my favorite. 5/10The strawberry daiquiri was delicious- light, flavorful and fresh. 10/10The lemonade (with lime added) receives the same regards. Fresh, the right amount of tartness and sweetness. 10/10My friend’s review stats:Quesadilla- 8/10Margarita on the rocks- 10/10Chips and warm salsa- 9/10Service was efficient.“
“We had an amazing experience at Los Tíos Grill in Crystal City! The food was delicious, with generous portions that satisfied both our appetites and cravings. The entrees and drinks were truly phenomenal - a perfect blend of flavors that left us wanting more.During our visit for a work event with family in tow, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and taken care of. They were friendly, understanding, and treated our dietary needs with the utmost care, as if we were their own family members.I highly recommend Los Tíos Grill to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. If you find yourself in the area, do not miss the chance to visit this gem of a restaurant!“
“Such a great neighborhood gem. The food is good and the atmosphere is cute and quaint. My only gripe is that on the website, it states the restaurant closes at 9pm/9:30pm. However, it’s more like 7:30pm! It always closes early for many different reasons and if you walk in to dine at 7:15pm, they’re looking at you crazy or May tell you that you can only order takeout. I wish they’d just change the times!“
“Discovering this spot was a pleasant surprise during the time I lived in DC. Offering authentic Mexican cuisine, it provides a taste of Mexico right in the heart of the city.Beyond the food, the service was friendly and attentive, adding to the enjoyable experience. Additionally, the restaurant maintains a clean and welcoming atmosphere.“
“In my humble opinion, Plaza Azteca is one of the best Mexican/TexMex restaurants in the greater DC area. From the people, service, delicious food options and cleanliness, we always leave happy. Recommend the enchiladas platter, tacos and salads. Hope you enjoy Plaza Azteca as much as we do!“
“This place is in the middle of an alley. Came in wanting a burrito but got confused by the “WDB” acronym special with random ingredients so I called an audible and got Steak Chimichuri, later realized that meant “Well Dressed Burrito”. The music was chaotic. Food was great. Vibes were immaculate. 10/10 would do “
“Went there with a group of friends late at night, when almost all other restaurants in the area were closed. The service was friendly and fast, and the food was tasty. They had great music playing and the ambiance was nice. Would definitely recommend this place!“
“Place has a very chill environment. The cook is very sweet and polite. She made the food in prompt timing. She also served our food. My son and I went on a Thursday noon, it wasn't busy at all. Very quiet if you'd like to sit and eat in peace. Food was good, menu layout could improve perhaps add pictures to it to make it easier for people who aren't familiar with Latin food. A little more lighting and a little background music could be convenient too:)“
“Came on a Friday night and I can say this location is the best one I’ve been to so far. The Dominican manager is the best! I requested to change my drink mid-meal and he was so accommodating. Definitely recommend this location, food, vibes, and service is 10/10!“
“This food was so good, the waitress would talk to you, the food would be nice and ready and there is so many options on the menu and the bar. There is so many options and its all just great. The restaurant appearance is good and its very hygienic . I would recommend this restaurantParking: There is plenty of parking lotsKid-friendliness: The waitresses are very nice and friendly to children.“
“We are from South Texas - so I know good Tex-Mex. Love the flavors that we get from UJ's! Always delicious and always hot/fresh! We actually haven't ever eaten in the restaurant-just take out. But who we HAVE interacted with have been friendly. Tip: if you want refried charro beans you can ask for them. ;)“

This restaurant here for there customers . There food is amazing . San Antonio is one of my favorite dish . The sopa de marisco is very flavorful and well balance .
