Pica Taco is a sleeper in the area. I've been going to it for years and it's always been good to me. Recommend the breakfast burrito with chorizo. Green and white salsa that comes with it is great too. If the line is too long at la tejana, go down the street to here. It deserves the support. Very humble locally owned business.

The Burrito was good. The service was better. There's a veggie section and they accommodate my food allergies.

A budget-friendly taco spot, where expectations meet reality on the dot. It's crucial to note, authenticity's not its claim, leaning more towards Salvadorian flavors, all the same. Not quite Mexican, a distinction to make, for those in search of that specific taste. Affordable, indeed, reflecting in what you receive, a place where cost and quality interweave. An option for the adventurous, yet with caution for the purist, in this culinary divergence, clarity is a must.

It's a taco hole in the wall but it's not THE hole in the wall you were looking for.

The food is usually pretty good. They have this white sauce that really pulls the food together. However, if you order on Uber eats, they refuse to send any sauce -- even when you specifically ask for it (multiple occasions)! Apparently this store only gives out white sauce to patrons in person (they verbalized this to me). If you have the chance to go to the other Pica Taco, it is much better! Highly recommend the other locations. You won't feel like you got ripped off.

Terrible service, today I called to order my food and pick it up, I really love pica taco food!!! And I take advantage of it when I'm in Washington to have lunch there…. Unfortunately, today I had a horrible experience, while I was driving I called Pic Taco to order my food but the woman who served me told me “allow me a moment” and I said “ok” she forgot, I think, to turn off the mute on the phone and I heard everything. What she was talking about she said “I love you too my love” “I send you a kiss” It seems that she was on another line, it bothered me a lot because I am only passing through Washington so I usually ask for my order by a call and so as I approach the restaurant the food is ready and I leave….!!! But it's unpleasant to see how they can put people who don't care about customers, I really WILL NOT buy from PICA TACO AGAIN!!!!! And while I can I will give bad references about this restaurant that left me on hold for 20 minutes... until I have an apology from the manager!!

Had a hearty delicious lunch from Pica Taco. The soft fish tacos had a nice crunch from the veggies, and the crema and spicy dip that came with it were delicious.The tamales were glorious: fluffy casing, juicy pork inside.My tummy couldn’t be happier!

Horrible Customer Service!! The cashier who said her name was Maria penalizes customers based on race. If you are a black customer they all of a sudden refuse to give a napkin and a fork. The evening cashier guy also refuses to give a curtesy fork and napkin for to go orders. Will not spend another dime in that place. Both cashiers are a piece of TRASH!!

I wasn't so impressed. Some of the rice was hard; the pork was a bit dry. Beans were very tasty. No real ambience but it sells itself as a hole in the wall down-home place. If they could keep the food at the down-home level, as I'm sure it could, it would be worth it.

First-time guest. I shared clear instructions I did not want sauce on the burrito as I was driving and preferred a hand-held item. It was in a bed of sauce which required utensils. What's great is they removed all dairy. It tasted good. Yet, I had to sit and eat, then drive home.

Is been a very sad experience for me When I been there The food is okay , I usually go there for lunch I live in the neighborhood, but is the 3rd time in the rode and the cashier lady is just very rude to me In specific, every time I ask for something about the food her attitude is just like from someone the is just been overworking on her day? Rude.. but is very weird that we noticed the she’s only like that with me in the group I seen her many times taking orders for other people But she’s does not act the same way to them Lol In a way is very sad the u specifically be good with some people and others don’t? I work in customer service before and that is a not a good way to help customers..
