“We were searching for something local to try because we were visiting from out of town. The young man who waited on us was really helpful when we had questions, and the food was fantastic. The friend plantains and the Peruvian chicken were both quite tasty. Strongly advised!“
“Cozy and friendly place where you will please your palate!!!! If you are looking for delicious food, and warm customer service visit this restaurant! It was wonderful for my family ??♀️??????to find this place on my visit to Washington!!“
“After having an unpleasant experience at another restaurant in the area we came to Judy’s and this was meant to be! The service was amazing, our server Fidel was friendly, knowledgeable about the menu and the drinks. Fidel gave us really good recommendations. We ordered one tamarind margarita and one lemon margarita with mezcal, they both were delicious and fresh! For the food, we ordered pupusas revueltas and pupusas with cheese and beans! Best pupusas I ever tried! I’m definitely coming back! The service at this place is really great!SECOND VISITAfter a great experience at Judy’s last night, I wanted to come back to explore more the many and I’m glad I did! Fidel’s customer service was exceptional as the first time. This time I tried Bistec a la criolla, Judy’s combination and for dessert I had their 3 leches cake and their flan. Both were divide, I can recommend this place enough!THIRD VISITAMAZING! The Lomo Saltado and Burrito was incredible delicious! The margaritas were tasty! Loving this restaurant! ❤️ the customer service is 100 points! 10 out of 10!“
“We did carry out so I can't be totally sure of the atmosphere but it seemed nice. The food is fantastic, and I say run over to get some! Absolutely everything we tried was beyond fantastic. $30 total including tip for two people, and we had some leftovers for the next day.Dietary restrictions: I am gluten free and the pupusas are GF, plus so much else. I have a ton of choices here. Also if you are vegetarian there are lots of good options.“
“I truly enjoy this place. I come here often to get the same dish. I grab their 3 carne asada tacos. It’s one of my favorite spots to pick up tacos. Very authentic. I have had their paposas (not sure if I spelled it correctly) and they are great also.The service is kind and friendly. It seems like a family own business.“
“They have the best seafood soup!!!! Incredibly tasty, healthy, and full of chunky seafood, scallops, shrimp, and fish. The soup goes exceptionally well with the pickled veggies and tortillas that it comes with along with a squeeze of lemon. An absolute must try if you like seafood soup!!! PS. I get mine without cream but you can get it on the side to try in the soup.“
“There’s street parking which you sometimes have to pay for but there might be a parking lot too. Just not sure. Service is great in a lively, comfortable setting. The food is even better. I tried this location partly because it’s closer to my home but also for a new experience. I was not disappointed. We went there for an early lunch and to beat the crowd. Chips and salsa were great. I had the chorizo con huevos which was delicious and so much I couldn’t finish it all. My wife had the mojarra frita with shrimps on top with a butter garlic sauce. She raved about it.“
“Pupusas here are good. It's a mix of Mexican and Salvadoran food and I've been coming to it for years. The old school drinks, plátanos con crema and pupusas are delicious. The jukebox with cumbias and musica latina sets a good vibe. The staff is friendly and it's not always too busy.“
“I had never been there before, and I just needed to go to the bathroom. I looked at the menu and ordered two burritos. I then left to go transact some business, left, and come back to get my order. The people were very nice and had my order ready when I returned. The bag they gave we was very big. I did eat there. When I got home there were two containers in the bag, and the burritos were so big it took me two days to eat them. The burritos were very good. I they added cucumber, and hit sauce and a green sauce I did recognize, but didn't eat. If I'm in the neighborhood in the future, I will stop by and order the same thing. The burritos were $12.00 each. It was a little pricey, but very good.“
“My 1st time eating here & overall...not bad.The food was good, location not. In a semi strip mall in the hood.I ordered a shrimp & chicken fajita over the phone & it was ready when I arrived. The lady was nice and I ordered a half tea/lemonade drink. The drink was watery and not sweet.They only give you 4 medium size shrimp, a small cup of black beans, & the Pico was the smallest portion I've ever seen (see photo), especially for the size platter. The Pico should've been the same size as the beans.You also get small extras of sour cream, a cheese, & a greenish garnish which I didn't use any of them.I stopped at Chipotle and got a Gauc, added bacon bits and it was a good lunch! (They don't have quac)I will return!With the drink it was about $17“
“To all the pasta and seafood lovers out there, don’t miss out on the Linguine Con Mariscos . Such an amazingly delicious dish , everything was fresh and cooked to perfection, the linguine the sauce the muscles the clams and the shrimp. 10 /10 well done .“
“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“
“I knew the food was going to be delicious once we walked in and saw a bunch of locals just hanging out drinking beers. The vibes were great. The pupusas were delicious, chicharrón con yuca was not dry at all and full of flavor. The music was also great. Our server was handling everything on her own from the front to waiting the tables and this was the best service we had while visiting DC. We can’t wait to come back!“
“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.“
“*CHEF'S KISS* Cozy and utilitarian ambiance, with a cute tiny bar, very friendly and attentive service. But THE FOOD though! I just stopped in because it was near my barber and I knew that I could satisfy my "2 meal hunger" for relatively cheap. Frankly and honestly, this was the best Honduran food I've ever tasted. I don't say that lightly, I have eaten A LOT of good Salvadoran and Honduran food since I moved to the area in 2007. I've even had homemade pupusas from mothers of my students on a regular basis. I'm normally not a fan of refried beans on my Tostadas or in fajitas, but they used just the right amount, & they were damn good. For once I feel they actually contributed to the taste of the Baleada and Catracha instead of taking away. The food was so good I have finally dedicated the names of these dishes to memory. in the past they never made a big impact flavor- wise, just kind of good, simple Central American home cooking classics. Everything here was absolutely cooked to perfection and the chef knows exactly what balance of ingredients and fillings are exceptionally delicious in texture and complimentary flavors . STANDOUTS: The Catracha & the Baleada: Baleada -- roughly translated - a Honduran (person). Here the tostada is a double fried corn tortilla with refried beans, and crumbled farmers cheese. I have never had a fried corn tostada so decadently crispy-fried. I literally said " oh my gawd" when I took my first bite. The Baleada was soft and pillowy on the inside and was just the right amount of pan-crisp on the outside. The avocado, beans, cheese, egg, and crema just complemented one another, nothing overwhelmed anything else in flavor or texture. Perfect balance.“
“First time here service was great server would great she would check up on us food was well season and tasty. We love eating at place that offer pichers of margarita and this place makes it just perfect.Vegetarian options: Beans , rice , salad, just a few things that I can see of the top of my headKid-friendliness: Don't have kids but there were a lot of families here when dinning.“
“IF YOU ARE A FAN OF DELICIOUS FLAVOR, GO HERE IMMEDIATELY!!!!!Angel's Restaurant is a very unsuspecting place, so go in knowing that there's not much to look at while you eat. BUT!!! The food MORE THAN MAKES UP FOR THAT!! I went in craving tacos and I wasn't disappointed at all! They have "putacos" which is a glorious marriage of a pupusa and a taco, and they are heavenly!!!! I also ordered their chicken tacos and I was in love with them too!! Our waitress was also very nice and kindly explained the menu to us, which helped a lot! I can't wait to go back!!“
“This is hands-down, the best Silvestre location in my opinion. I always call and order my food and it's always ready for pick up when I go. The service is phenomenal and so is the food. My go to order is a steak taco bowl. The steak is always very tender and well seasoned. The taco bowl is always overflowing and the amount of steak that you get for the price is amazing. Both the green and orange sauces, put all of the dishes over the top. I've also had their pupusa and tamales. I love a good pupusa and the curdito that comes with it is so fresh. The prices are great, and the food is amazing. This is definitely one of my favorite spots to go to when I don't wanna cook“
“I have several food allergies and eating out can be difficult. I try to contact restaurants ahead of time to make ordering easier. This restaurant is amazing, especially Leslie Magadan. She found me food options that I can eat while at the baseball stadium in Washington DC. Thank you.“
“Walked across the street to grab quick tacos while my wife was ordering momos at Royal Nepal. Got the chicharrones (great crunchiness to it) and lengua (perfectly cooked) and both were amazing. Good portion, and had great flavor. Definitely will grab more tacos from here if I'm in the area.“
“Fantastic food, no-frills spot and reasonable prices.The pupusa revuelta and pupusa de frijol were both generously stuffed and absolutely delicious. I loved the equally generous portion of cabbage slaw with it, which was nice and tangy, perfectly cutting through the rich and cheesy pupusa.Be prepared to speak some Spanish (as with many spots in this neighbourhood).Will definitely be back on the next rainy day for another pick-me-up.“
“This small restaurant is tucked away on Livingston Road by the LSW Liquor Store. Cozy and inviting, the restaurant is a great place to stop by for lunch or dinner. I had the grilled beef fajitas which was hot with beans, salad, and rice. Delicious and very satisfying at a reasonable price. I didn't take a photo but I will add a photo of the menu later. It specializes in Tex-Mex and Salvadorean food. I would highly recommend it. No frills, just good comfort food.“
“Really terrific food. The taquitos were topped with a slaw and SO fresh and yummy. (I think they were "enchiladas" on the menu, but I know them as taquitos. My husband had the taco plate and everything was so fresh. The waitress was super helpful and so nice. The vibe is almost like a nightclub, but we enjoyed the soccer game during our lunch. Paid $23 plus tip for a very filling, fresh meal!“

“I always ordered online through DoorDash and most of the time I don't receive cutlery or napkins, the food is delicious but they should put cutlery and napkins in takeout orders, but nevertheless the food is worth it because it is delicious.“
