Mike Reid

AUTHENTIC stuff here. Scratch made corn tortilla . The tacos were super moist and well-seasoned. The carnitas , chicken , shimp, al pastor , and canitas w/pineapple. Loved 'em all!

Washington Post

This no-frills taqueria went from a quiet Latino hangout to a destination for local chefs and urban food scouts quickly. The menu is so small (and good) that some diners just order the whole thing. Read more

They have a killer Torta here, the Milanesa de Pollo made with tender breaded chicken on a toasted soft roll .

Thomas Vander Wal

Great tacos on freshly made corn tortillas . They are not large. Really good goat barbacoa , al pastor with traditional pineapple . Special grilled octopus taco was tender and full of flavor.

Behrad Eats

Can't go wrong with any of the tacos they offer, so why not try them all?!

Jae Lee

Salsas are delicious as are their chips . I got the Pollo , camarones , and pescado tacos . I'll skip the pollo next time. Tacos are tiny and while good overrated. Take the trip to Taco Bamba.

Sam

They have delicious, delicious nopales . The huarache is fantastic. Fish tacos are way better than the meaty ones.

Jesse Thomas

Washington post called these tacos the best in DC. For authentic style, they are awesome. ✨they make every single thing on their menu in house including their famous corn tortillas .

Adam Sean

Fajitas are excellent. Guacamole is uncommonly good. Recommend the Habenero Margarita (with salt foam). And of course, the tacos are perfection.

Lenny Teh

Recommend any of the sopes and the street tacos especially the el pastor , chicken , and barbacoa ones. Try them with a habanero margarita .

Ebrahim Bandookwala

Barbacoa beef (steamed in maguey leaves) tacos with homemade habanero salsa .

Erwin Delgado

Without the slightest exaggeration: Everything. Very good service , wildly inexpensive for the quality of the food. Always busy, tight quarters.

Prerna Lal

Best Mexican in DC. Try the enchiladas con mole and the al pastor tacos !

Thomas Vander Wal

The memolas are really good and not often four elsewhere (item on the right in the photo).

Javien

Expansive variety of tacos . They also have a good goat meat taco . The Mexican beer Victoria is the best Mexican beer on the menu

Loren Worsley

I have no idea what the huaraches al pastor actually consists of, but oh my god was it amazing.

Jackie

This place is incredible! I highly suggest the malanesa de pollo . So delicious! The chorizo tacos are also fantastic!

Stacy Bo Bacy

Pulpo and camarones tacos are great! Also, the quesadillas mmm

A Vickie

Had tacos . Al pastor and steak were fantastic! The green and red sauces are great too

Good but overrated : Pescodo taco - bistec taco - comaron/shrimp taco - pescado/fish

Thomas Vander Wal

Amazing tacos and fresh made tortillas . They are not late, but the flavors are incredible.

Anastasiia ....

Not bad, but definitely not the best place with Mex cuisine. Michelada wasn't that great and tacos el pastor were slow cocked which is not the way they are usually cooked. We liked their salsas a lot!

Seamus McKenna

You can’t go wrong! They’re known for their tacos and the mojo to was mixed really well !

A Vickie

Tacos ! Shrimp , al pastor , barbacoa , chicken - they’re all great, authentic Mexican.

Ebrahim Bandookwala

The lengua (tongue ) tacos with nopales ! .. Yum:-)

Ardvaark

The quesadilla is huge and fried dark brown — and is so, so delicious!

fish or shrimp tacos . Ask for Israel. Tell him you want the Azetic margerita.
