The beverages are consistently excellent, and the food is also quite good. I have recommended this establishment to several people.

Las Placitas is such a gem! The food is always fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The portions are generous, and the margaritas are some of the best around. The staff is super friendly and welcoming — they really make you feel at home. The atmosphere is warm and colorful, perfect for a relaxed lunch or dinner with friends and family. I’ve tried several dishes and everything has been delicious — especially the fajitas and seafood plates. Definitely one of my favorite local spots!

We love this Latin Tex Mex and Salvadoran restaurant! Super flavorful quality food, great margaritas! Fantastic service ... gracias Jose! Be very careful with your credit card, I had service providers on my card for things in DC when we were not there. Keep your card in your view at all times.

Here's a more engaging version of your review:
I've gotta give this place a five-star rating — I’ve never been disappointed with their food, drinks, or service. I discovered this gem a couple of months ago, and it quickly became my go-to spot. I usually opt for pick-up or delivery since I prefer avoiding crowded places.
One time, when I picked up my order, I could tell the staff was a bit overwhelmed. The person preparing my food seemed a little stressed, and I felt rushed, with my small talk brushed aside. But they genuinely apologized,and thanked me for sticking with them.
Today’s experience was even better. During a Grubhub delivery, the driver canceled, saying the restaurant hadn’t included my selected items. I called the restaurant, and they confirmed everything was there — turns out, the driver canceled because he didn’t want to wait five minutes, despite arriving early. I’d tipped him 15%, but the restaurant owner stepped in. When I went to pick up my order instead, he greeted me with fresh drinks, a shot of tequila for my patience, and, to top it off, told me my food would be on the house due to the inconvenience.
This place truly goes above and beyond! Big thanks to everyone at LaPlacitas — you’ve earned my loyalty.

Good Food and great drinks! I got a strawberry margarita and it was strong they make it very boozy. Food was hot and fresh which I love. Only complaint is they add a $5 gratuity to your bill but still ask for a tip. I tip either way but I thought gratuity was tip? Also its a dollar cheaper if you pay cash instead of card

The drinks are always on point. I really like the food. This time I tried the shrimp chimichanga and wanted to lick my face off. It was so delicious. The sides were good and the patio is always a vibe. It’s a great place to grab drinks with friends for happy hour 3pm-6pm and they are struck with the time so make sure get there before 6! Keep in mind this is DC, outside, in the summer, and if you are there in the evening you may see little 🐭. They are far enough away where you aren’t bothered but close enough for you to see. But this is the case with all outdoor establishments in the city. Don’t let that stop you cause you’d be missing out on a great food and drinks.

1000/10 across the board! The food was amazing, the drinks was hitting beyond what I could imagine, and don’t get me started on Security Breeze making sure the line was moving peacefully and efficiently so I can get into Las and finally see what the hype was about and all around it was definitely worth it!! I will be coming back very soon.
