50 Best Latin American Restaurants near Chillum

“I felt like some Dominican food specifically, chicharron de pollo (fried chicken) and tostones (fried plantains). The food was delicious and plentiful. It's in a strip mall and has an adjoining lounge which may double as a dance floor.“

“Great food great service!“

“Food was delicious. We ordered
-Pork belly 10/10
-Arepa con carne 10/10
-Crab beignets 6/10
-Hot dog 9/10
-Pork empanadas 9/10
And arequipe late a Colombian hot chocolate 10/10.
The service was good, you only see the server when they bring you the food and you are gonna pay, other than that you order online, yes, even if you’re seating in the restaurant, odd but okay.“

“Deliciosas empanadas y aperitivos con ese sabor Panameño que nos identifica y una atención excelente“

“Came for brunch. The Pupusas Benedict was a hit. Rounded it up with black beans and chips & guac and had a feast. Very nice staff. Maybe the parking was a bit challenging (luckily I got the last spot in front of restaurant), but maybe there is another lot nearby.“

“Delicious neighborhood place serving Guatemalan food and some Mexican inspired dishes. The service is friendly. The food is dependable and always delicious. They make the chips for guacamole or salsa and chips to order. Entrees come with traditional warm Guatemalan tortillas which are thicker than Mexican tortillas. I use them to pick up the delightful sauces.“

“Mi esposo y yo fuimos hoy por primera vez. Las atenciones fueron espectaculares y la comida riquísima. Esperamos volver pronto. Gracias a Rocio por tratarnos tan bien.“

“Incredible. I've been twice and it has been incredible both times. The second time I went I wasn't feeling well (unrelated to Mita obviously) and about halfway thru I couldn't keep going with the tasting menu and they were EXTREMELY accommodating and professional. The food is the most delicious food in the world and the staff is so high level good at their jobs. You can only love this place.“

“Very cute and clean out of the way Salvadoran restaurant. Worth a stop if you’re in the area! Had a great weekend lunch, tried the papusas (get the revueltas!) and tacos, as well as a couple different margaritas. Very reasonably priced and really delicious.

I’ve had papusas from several places, these are handmade and very fresh.“

“My son and I visited El Golfo Restaurant last weekend. The staff was very friendly, attentive and helpful with reviewing the menu options. Our meals were generously sized and delicious. Live music was playing and a nice addition to the atmosphere. We would highly recommend this authentic and reasonably priced restaurant.“

“I don’t usually write reviews—when I do, it’s because the experience was either exceptionally bad or truly outstanding. This one might be a bit long, so let’s start from the beginning. It’s been 10 years since I moved to Virginia, and I have to say, I love it here. That said, I do miss the beaches and the incredible food from Miami. Ever since I moved, I’ve been searching for the perfect spot—a place where both the food and the service are amazing. Let’s be honest, that’s hard to find. Often, the food is great but the service is just okay, or the service is excellent but the food falls short. When looking for a place to celebrate my wedding anniversary, a few options came up, and one of them was Sabores Tapas Bar. Unfortunately, I couldn’t make it there at the time and ended up going to two other places—one was okay, the other was awful. Later, I told my wife we needed to try Sabores, maybe on New Year’s Day. Again, we ended up at a “safe” spot we like to visit. The food and service were good, but it was just our usual go-to. Fast forward to last week: my best friend from Puerto Rico came to visit with his family. He loves to eat, and his wife can be hard to please. This time, we decided to go to Sabores Tapas Bar. I’ll admit, I was nervous—I wanted them to have a great experience, but pleasing everyone is never easy. Finally, we went. What can I say? The food was amazing, and the service was just as incredible. It was so good we couldn’t stop eating. I had high expectations—growing up, my house was always full because my friends came over for my mom’s cooking. She’s an amazing cook. Mom, forgive me for saying this, but Sabores Tapas Bar is as good as, if not better than, your cooking, and the service was amazing. Wow. I’ve found the place. It’s so good that I want to go back and try dishes I normally don’t like, just to see if they can make me love them. I can’t wait to return. My taste buds have found the love of their life at Sabores Tapas Bar.“

“We had a wonderful experience at La Fogata Grill. I had a poblano chili stuffed with beef, raisins, almonds, pomegranate seeds and served with walnut cream sauce. Really unique and delicious. My husband had the mole enchiladas. He loved it. Service was excellent! We will definitely eat here again.“

“Great atmosphere with elegant decor. Went for Valentine's Day, so our experience may just be due to them being busy. We were seated late, and the waiter was rushing. Our reservation was for 10:45 PM, so I assume they just wanted to close. Other than that we had the Tapas menu, which offered some really good options. We enjoyed the garlic shrimp, lamb meatballs, potatoes, and snapper the most. The star of the night, hands down, was the Churro dessert. To our surprise this was not your traditional churro. A churro in the shape of a hollow cupcake filled with ice cream and escorted by a side of warm chocolate for you to drizzle. CHEF'S KISS! Overall, a good experience that could have been great if the service was better, but I will attribute that to it being a very busy night.“

“I ordered a plate of appetizer omg so good A very clean place they have fasts to serve your food and they have a buffet ready for lunch super delicious I recommend this place everything is very delicious (I ordered a plate of appetizer omg so good A very clean place they are quick to serve your food and they have a buffet ready for lunch super delicious I recommend this place very tasty everything)?“

“10/10, took my wife for our 15 year anniversary and she loved, every delicious bite, every plate had a story to tell,such a wonderful and memorable experience. Gracias!!!“

“The salteñas from Saya are, without a doubt, the best I’ve tasted—not just in Washington DC, but even compared to some spots in La Paz, Bolivia. The staff is warm and attentive, and every bite of food is bursting with flavor. A true gem for anyone craving authentic Bolivian cuisine.“

“Consistently AWESOME!“

“Had a wonderful dinner with friends - service was great and food unique and delicious! Highly recommend!“

“I absolutely love the fish dishes, the ceviche was amazing! The new menu provides some wonderful flavors that are expertly combined. And classics like the empanadas are a great comfort food as well, paired with a tasty chimichurri sauce, and other fantastic sides with different levels of spice. 😙👌“

“It's a food truck and typically you'd go and grab your food and leave. However, there were chairs out there. I would use some of those generated revenues for more tables.

The food is good, but could be better. The service wasn't the fastest but they were short staff. All in all i enjoyed my experience. If they're ever in the northern virginia area. I could see myself stopping by again!“

“the best arepas i have had outside of Venezuela.“

“fast service, great food, and the best Peruvian-style chicken in Columbia Heights.“

“La sopa de mariscos está muy rica La atención es excelente y familiar los recomiendo al 100%“

“The waiter was very friendly, patient, and knowledgeable about their gluten free items. I have celiac disease so I had so many questions IYKYK. We got there right before dinner rush. We the Paella Con Pollo Y Chorizo and Ensalada Guardados with chicken. The Paella was ok, the rice wasn't done so it was quite crunchy. The salad was amazing, the chicken had the best flavor and was so moist. The balsamic vinaigrette dressing was delicious. I definitely will go back and try their other GF items.“

“This is my favorite place! I drive from Columbia to here almost every weekends because I love the vibe, the food, the drinks and they are very kind and professional and hard working. I love to support this business and I recommend it to anyone who is into Hispanic food and reggaeton! Absolutely amazing lounge!“

“Food was delicious!! Service was excellent!! People were so friendly! Love it here!!“

“great food, very friendly employees. will eat there again“

“good boneless chicken wings, tasty sauces and flavors for the wings“

“Fantastic place - great vibe/atmosphere and service.
Food was exceptional. The entire family ate, so we were able to try lots of different dishes. The standout was the loroco pupisa, but the emepenadas, charrascos, and salteños were close behind. The horchata and monconchichi were also exceptional. Highly, highly recommend.“

“Very Nice ambience, truly enjoyed the music, the service , the food. If you are looking for a place to hang out anytime, this is it! They have parking, security, food and beverage all in one place, if you do try the food definitely go for Shrimp ceviche it's out of this world??“

“muy buena comida se los recomiendo“

“Great place to grab a chicken and cheese sub. Plenty of chicken for another sandwich…lol. Love this spot.“

“Finally got round to trying the ChimiChurri sauce on halloumi…delicious! Last night marinated some chicken thighs with it and was not disappointed! Highly recommend any of Como en Casa’s products…all delicious!“

“Fantastic, fabulous, everything on the menu is amazing. Wait staff is really good as service and completely.“

“The vibe is good. The service was very very slow. They kept forgetting to put things in. Not sure if they were short staffed. Don’t waste your time with the chips and dips. They tasted like store bought guacamole and salsa and cheap dollar store bag chips. But other wise the Citron sampler was amazing! We only one drink because again the service was slow. But overall I would try this place again because of the vibe and music.“

“Bomb food :)“

“I mean it's a food truck at a gas station, not much atmosphere. Other than that No complaints!! Unless I get there late and she's out of pollo??‍♂️. Not her fault lol. Never been disappointed and if you're nice you may get some home pickled jalapenos, definitely a great lunch option. It's my go-to a couple times a week. Definitely recommend ??“

“The perfect hole in the wall. Classic, quality Mexican food. Sizes good portions, reasonable prices, you can feed two people to beyond full with a drink for $30, it’s all freshly made in house to order and turn around pick up is never longer that 15/20mins. Special shout out to the chicken burrito and the horchata.“

“Muy buen Ambiente muy rica 🤑 la comida Todo excelente 😍😍🥰.“
