It was ok, I'll try the food next time. I get it lease is pretty high in Bethesda, but them drink prices are wild. It's been a while since I gone to a bar lounge. It also wouldn't be fair to compare it to Thailand bars or clubs, then it be 1 star for sure. Compared to D.C it's around the same level. Like most places they really ride of the vibe people in groups bring to there establishments. If i was them I definitely would see how clubs and lounges be in...

We were so happy to chose to come to La Catrina to celebrate our 20 th anniversary here, we have an amazing service from Mabel, she provided us a wonderful service and her professionalism to serve us was amazing. Thank you so much for a wonderful night, food and service. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone.

My friend brought me here for the first time, I didn’t know what to expect. It was absolutely delicious. The carne asada was the best I’ve had in the DC area. The mango ceviche was smooth and creamy with the perfect seasoning and a generous amount of shrimp. I also had the flan with home made orange marmalade, just wow, you can really tell there is a little grandma back there making things fresh.
And lastly, the bartender was gorgeous and so nice and friendly....
