What Guests Say
Guestbook
“ Great on everything! I wish we had more places like this in US. They carry lots of authentic flavors, the spice has a very good kick of heat, the Spanish music is going as you embrace on the dips, friendly staff, and Mexican Coke. It has a great ambient Mexican culture just like when I was in Mexico traveling. The food doesn't take like watered down American-Mexican restaurants. ”
“ A very cool little spot! I really enjoyed the decor, and the restaurant itself has great seating available. I ordered the birria tacos, and they were great. They were covered in sauce and pack to the brim. Amazing taste, served hot, and you can tell they make everything from scratch. The real superstar was my waitress. She seemed to be the only one working and she was killing it! I had absolutely no problems with my service despite the large number of customers she was having to cater to. I did find 16 dollars for the tacos to be a little on the expensive side, but I understand D.C is an expensive city. Happy to support a small business! ”
“ One of my favorite spots — I’ve been coming here for years, and the food just keeps getting better. Every bite tastes like it came straight from Mexico City. The tacos al pastor are incredible — perfectly seasoned, juicy, and packed with flavor. And the handmade tortillas? Absolute perfection! The guacamole is always fresh, the salsas have that perfect balance of spice and tang, and their margaritas are the best way to top it all off. You can taste the authenticity and love in every dish — nothing feels rushed or commercialized, just real Mexican cooking done right. The staff are always warm, friendly, and quick to make you feel at home. Even when the place is busy (which it often is!), they handle everything with a smile. It’s the kind of place that turns first-time visitors into loyal regulars — just like me! ”
