Order the egg-white taco . Ask for the potatoes , cheese and black beans , or upgrade to bacon . Doused with citrusy salsa verde , it's the closest thing this town has to a Texas-worthy breakfast taco . Read more

For a quick and delicious burrito or taco head to this place. Order Burrito mojado . They even serve breakfast burritos . For vegetarians get the salsa maya, self serve salsa bar for added flavor!

Angie Hwang

Order the burrito mojado with al pastor which is pork with pineapple chunks. Or go for their fish tacos and carne asada . Don't forget to stop by their salsa bar , great options.

Loren Worsley

Dis is the jewel of DC tacos . Corn tortilla tacos w black beans , sour cream , lettuce, tomato , pico , guac , and mestizo salsa is my usual jam . But the fish tacos really hold their own as well !

Faith Carter

I got the chorizo which was really good. A bit salty but it’s packed with flavor and not too spicy . Service is fast. The place is small so come at a less busy time or plan to take it to go.

Tracy Isaac

During Lent 2013, I went to District Taco hoping for a non-meat/chicken option and I had the greatest fish taco experience ever. When Lent was over, I still came for the fish tacos on Tues and Fri

Fish or shrimp not served on Wednesdays...also no tofu for vegetarians ... Quickest lunch I ever had! Fantastic, tacos !

Anna John

Basic taco is flawless. Burrito bowl > burritos . Mexican coke , an excellent salsa bar (truly spicy !) and addictive guacamole are all wonderful, too. Nachos are the only disappointment, but who cares?

Dizzie Tot

quick service , amazing food, very affordable esp for travellers, taco bar !!! Very clean restrooms and write on the sticky note wall dont miss this spot in DC!

Ron Jeramiah

Great tacos and right off the National Mall to stop and get a couple tacos . The Pibil is awesome.

Ryan Harding

Food was awesome! Got the chorizo nachos and it was ????????

Jeremy C

If you come after 10am you can pick up some breakfast tacos AND get non-breakfast tacos to save for later in the day.

Melissa Jansky

This place is legit for some amazing tacos . The guacamole was on point. Check it out if you’re in D.C.

Elham Easy

We tried California burritos and classic tacos . Burrito was amazing and taco was good but not grounded beef . Suggest to try it.

Mike Reid

Had several tacos here. The carnitas , the carne asada and the shredded beef Very nice. Even sampled the breakfast burrito . I'm a taco snob and these people are pretty good.

Corey Nichols

Try and get a seat at the front table. You can see the grill and great people watching . There's never a shortage of salsa , there are 8 to choose from.

Kevin Hawkins

Amazing fish tacos Tuesdays and Fridays. Order online and skip the lines ! The food is always amazing.

Percy Holmes

The fish tacos are to die for! Excellent food with superb service.

Robin Bertels

During rush hours, get yourself some chips and salsa if you're dying for food as the wait can be considerable. Well worth waiting though.

Ann Osipova

Awesome!???? also check free salsa bar ????????

Maria Pearson

Great food, great service this place was very crowded we had to eat outside but the weather was perfect.

Rachel Rubenstein

Really like their chips & cheese dip . Good chicken , cheese & black bean quesadilla .

Juri Volama

Have the Huevos Rancheros with sausage and you can wait till dinner .

NOM NOM Boris

World of super nomnom tacos , stop by and order Al Pastor & Carne Asada Tacos . More tips & pics @ nomnomboris.com

Line Storgaard-Conley

Get there before or after the lunch rush. That way you do not have to wait 25 mins to order and 25 mins to get your food. Who has time for that?!? The food is delicious!

Vlad Snoopy Gumeniuk

I tried taco here for the first time. And it was good. District taco is the place you should visit.

E

Don't hesitate to request a tour of the menu and don't worry about choosing fast. It's a meal. Respect yourself.

Anna John

Breakfast burrito = good. Basic tacos = FLAWLESS. I crave them. Also wonderful? Mexican coke , the smoky "hot" salsa and the bright , fresh guacamole . The nachos , however, are a crushing disappointment.

Erin LG

Breakfast burritos served all day! That's heaven. Tacos and salsa bar are great, too.

Isa Lara

Wow. Best tacos I've had in a long time. Did barbacoa "con todo" (with everything) plus guacamole . Yum!

Felix Rrd

Very generous portions for little money. Efficient service and, most importantly, delicious burritos !

Robbie Myers

Try the mojado burrito all week and the fish tacos on Friday...also can't go wrong with a small chip with guac !

Leslie Linares

I always go for the kid's meal. Quesadilla , chips , Guam and juice for a little over $6!

Caroline Wu

Amazing, cheap , loaded tacos ! I had the fish and it was very refreshing

Kirk

Buro Mojado with carne asada is a little on the spicy side, but oh so good. ????????

Evelyn Arana

The carne asada tacos were delicious! Their meat isn't spicy which is how I like it.

Katie Buckner

Probably the best Mexican I have had in DC which says more about mexican in DC than anything else

Harper Wentz

They have good slow cooked pork and beef . I liked the three tacos with carnitas , it was very good

Venny F. Venistine

Taco's my daughter Fave.....! Everything about tacos , No doubt for her.. Taste? Just #1word : Top !

Sarah Joshi

Legit breakfast tacos , bacon is extra crispy and amazing ????????

ET Thornton

The three tacos are phenomenal, but being able to get a breakfast taco there is pure heaven!

Sandra Rubinchik

I know the place has taco in the name, but it's okay to get a burrito , I promise.

Erik Plath

<insert favorite thing here> is amazing. It’s so good. Because I like it, you should too.

Chip Tallent

Huevos Rancheros is an awesome breakfast very filling and nice and spicy

Chris Moore

Fish tacos win. Only available on certain days as they alternate with shrimp .

Will Rigby

The lines get crazy long, but it's worth it. Chicken tacos are excellent.

Christopher Long

Basic Mexican, about the same as Chipotle or Qdobe. The shrimp burrito bowl (available on Tuesdays and Thursdays) was good.

Jason Van Dyke

Easily the best Mexican food in DC. Breakfast tacos with chorizo are heavenly.

Erica Waters

Do not get the quesadilla with pinto beans, or any beans for that matter. Got back to my office and it was mushy slop, big disappointment! Guac was excellent however!

kazahel

Epic customized veggie tacos with free guacamole & a salsa bar . Awesome.
