Happy Hour 3:30p til 7pm. Swirl frozen margarita is a fave. Have the cilantro (green) rice . The authentic Mexican music is best-it gets wack when the dj starts with corny music in attempts to be cool.

NightScene

This latin flavor restaurant is dominated by its bar and lounge area , a great place for a drink on any night of the week, go with the margarita or mexican beer to fit the mood

Beware that the information on their website might not be correct (location in Columbia Heights does not do the buffet but the site says it does, etc). Buffet is delicious!!

Parking is bad all the time! Take the train or give yourself 30/45 mins to look for parking . The swirl margarita and sangria are the BEST!

The tacos Juarez are my preference. They are a good amount of food without being too heavy like a burrito .

Worst service ever last night. I ordered taquitos.. they brought out tacos . My wife ordered shrimp..they forgot to put order in. At 9:30p the restaurant was slow so how can you mess up a table for 2?

Might be time to stop coming here. I like restaurants . I like clubs. I dont like restaurants IN my clubs.
