Great little neighborhood taco spot. Straight to the point with simple, yet great authentic Mexican style tacos. Prices are great, especially for DC! I paid $9 for two tacos and a bottle of water.

The short answer: These are the best tacos I've had in DC! You know what they say about "hole in the wall" restaurants and this place keeps the legend alive. It's place is small all but the tacos, the prices, and the service make the squeeze more than worth it. I had the Combo 3 (5 tacos with rice and beans and a drink). The carnitas and chorizo tacos were my favorites but they were all delicious. I left feeling full. I can't wait to drop in again.

I'm from Chicago and super picky about Mexican food. This is the only place in DC I'm willing to order from and they never disappoint! Recently I hosted a party and catered from there - and although they don't have a catering menu, per se, it turned out so well to order tacos and guac. Everyone loved the food, and we had no leftovers because it was so tasty! :) Nelson, the manager, was so kind and accommodating. Highly rec for your next small party!

Delicious! I had Al Pastor, Pollo & Carne Asada tacos. All were tasty but my fave were the Al Pastor. The tacos are so affordable $3-$3.50/each and loaded with meat. Wash it all down with a Mexican coca-cola, and you are golden. I will be back!
