I had a party of 15 ppl- the customer service, food, manager, & waiters were excellent! Highly recommend!!!

Rellenos were not fully cooked and cheese was a block unmelted in the center with cold bottom. Wait staff very rushed though friendly.

Have been waning to try Guapos for a while. Finally got the perfect time. Asked for a relatively quiet corner, and the hostess delivered. Both of us ordered fajitas, and both were exellent. Service was efficient but not intrusive. Probably the best Mexican restaurants we have tried in Bethesda. Everything was prepared well, arrived too hot to touch the plates, and portions are generous. Highly recommended. Parking lot nearby on Highland makes it quite convenient.

I think the food was very good, and up there with other top Mexican restaurants (not many IMO) I've been to in the area. The only thing is the price because it's also on the higher side of Mexican restaurants. However that being said it doesn't seem to have slowed down their clientele, they were pretty busy.

Love this place! Reliably great food. Terrific service. Perfect MexTex ambiance. Best Margaritas around.

The food was OK. We definitely have had better food at the Guapo's in Tenleytown. Our surface was slow and overall it wasn't what I expected.

We have been to Gaupos many times over the years, they have only improved. This is classic Mexican Fare, with fantastic chips, dips and excellent hanger steak for facitas and tacos... Their Cerviche was good (we only did the octopus ... they had 5 others. When going mexican in the Bethesda/Silver Spring region, Gaupos is fine with us :)

Awesome as always. Margs and fajitas are delicious. The steak in my Guapo's Superior was cooked perfectly medium rare as requested. Hector and the team delivered Feliz Cumpleanos to our friend with enthusiasm! Great time!

Professional service and a pleasant atmosphere. Truly enjoyable!
I didn’t eat in the restaurant — I ordered through DoorDash after a long day at a conference. I wasn’t familiar with the area and just wanted something good without going back out. I went with Mexican, and this spot was the fastest nearby, so I gave it a try.
I got the Tostada Laredo (Taco Salad) with steak and house-made guacamole, and it was so good! The steak was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. I barely used the dressing because the salsa and guac added plenty of flavor on their own.
What really impressed me was how well everything was packaged — the wet items were kept separate so the shell stayed nice and crisp. Overall, a great find for a quick, tasty late-night meal. I’d definitely order again!

I ordered mushroom quesadilla from Casa Oaxaca yesterday. Ehh. And today I ordered the same order from Guapos. I am shocked at the big difference as far as flavor and freshness goes. Guapos is the best no comparison! Also, this was my first time and I was really pleased with how the beautiful Rebecca treated me. She made me feel like family and that is the key to quality customer service. Thank You Rebecca!

This food and atmosphere is unmatched! The food is phenomenal, the margaritas were so delicious and I will be adding this my list of favorites. I love when places have it all: good customer service, flavorful food, and beautiful atmosphere inside and out. Don’t even get me started on what they do if it’s your birthday. (The hat is amazing haha)
