50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Cabin John

“The food is great and the staff are friendly. Of course I ordered the fish/shrimp tacos due to the name of the restaurant. Shrimp was amazing, literally all the flavors were amazing, but something was missing on the fish that I couldn't place. Added lime and salsa and it still hit the spot.“

“Brunch is amazing. Bottomless margaritas and the churros are excellent!“

“We had an early dinner before attending a performance at the Ford’s Theater. We made reservations through Open Table and were immediately seated upon arrival. The service was great. Our server recommended several dishes that we loved. There were abundant vegan and vegetarian options. Chilorio de Res tacos were mouthwatering as were the Hongos en Milto ones. In fact, every dish we ordered was delicious. One dish (chilaquiles) never arrived from the kitchen but we were pressed for time so we opted to have it taken off our bill instead of waiting for them to prepare it separately. Dessert, Cafe de Olla, was phenomenal. Pics are only some of the items we tried. Great atmosphere for date night and a milestone birthday celebration. Highly recommend.“

“I grabbed eight tacos to go and they were all delicious but what caught me by surprise was the restaurant. Even though I just got takeout, I receive great service and the vibe in here is so fun. This is a perfect place to come for happy hour or dinner or a brunch with the family. I highly recommend it.“

Flora understood the assignment when I called to confirm my order was received. She assured me it was and it was actually already ready. I was surprised and thankful. When I came in, she instantly knew it was me and personally went to grab my order. Flora even reminded me to get my drink 😂😂 I'm beyond happy with the experience and of course the food was awesome.“

“We were hanging out in Georgetown with our guests from out of town and we were looking for a place to eat lunch. We are all vegetarians and upon seeing good rating of this small restaurant, we decided to give it a try and we are so very glad we did. It's a hidden gem with delicious and healthy food with all vegetarian choices. The food was not only fresh, perfect temperature, and tasty but they had things on their menu that you don't find at a normal mexican joint.“

“Great tacos from El Chilango. It’s great value for the money and made to order. Whenever in the area I try and stop by. I’ve tried a few different types of tacos from here and I stick to the steak and mixto. Additionally the onion and habanero mix that is offered on the side is nice touch. Recommend if I. The area.“

“This place is kind of small hole in the wall. Seats about 14 or so outside and not many more people inside. Nice menu that's not too large or too small. Some Tex-Mex menus have way too many choices. The starter tortilla chips and salsa were top notch. Service all around was excellent. I had the Chicken Chimichanga and it was one of the best I've ever had. It came with rice and refried beans as well as pico, sour cream, guacamole, and lettuce. Everything was delicious, cooked perfectly, and reasonably priced. The presentation was great as well Can't wait to come back.“

“Really enjoyed our dinner at Mi Vida! I have celiac disease and was very impressed with the knowledgeable staff and server who made every effort for me to have a safe and enjoyable gluten-free dining experience. Special thank you to the chef and kitchen staff for taking extra steps to avoid cross-contamination with gluten during preparation. Excellent guacamole and house made chips, and some of the best shrimp fajitas I've had in the DMV. Will be back!“

“I ordered the taco bar for a party and it was fabulous. The great thing about District Taco is that they provide everything from the delicious food to the chafing dishes/sterno, plates, utensils--everything. It really contributed greatly to the party and the food exceeded my expectations. Shout out to the delivery service they use for catering; they came in and set up the chafing dishes and food and it was a much more full-service experience than I expected. Pleasantly surprised by that. Highly recommend District Taco for their catering!“

I also appreciate Wonder’s mission and the fact they are helping solve DMV’s homelessness problems“

“Absolutely delicious chicken and beef berria tinga tostadas. My suggestion is redoing their sign. It's a giant mass of black ink illustration that is way too busy visually, with a teeny tiny name underneath in a hard to read font when you're driving by on a busy road. The name should be VERY PROMINENT from the street. I drove by twice before figuring it out.“

“This place has classic tacos. Very old school looking. Quite a classic space. Not loud. Lots of long time customers who suggested the famous crispy tacos ! Cooked order to serve. I will def be coming back. The entire family
Loved it“

“Had an amazing lunch here today - delicious taco/enchilada combo with an hibiscus margarita - Que bueno la comics! Muy excellente y caliente!“

“The reason I recommend this restaurant is because the environment, service and facilities of this restaurant are very good!“

“First time here with the family. Loved the food. Everyone enjoyed the food. Place was clean and the service was very good. I left off 1 star for atmosphere only because of the music. I'm a Hip Hop head and I enjoyed it. My wife and I talked about other families with younger kids. The music was not something you want to hear if you have young kids or non hip hop fans for that matter. Maybe try the radio version. The owners are well within their right to play what they want so just take this as some friendly advice.“

“I LOVE this taco truck! Everything is alway amazing!“

“Enjoyed a great meal at District Taco. The food is fresh, flavorful, and made to order with high-quality ingredients. The tacos are packed with flavor, the queso is excellent, and the variety of proteins and toppings makes it easy to customize your meal. Service is quick and friendly, making it a perfect option for a casual lunch or dinner. Consistently good food, generous portions, and great value. Definitely one of my go-to spots for tacos in the area.“
