“Visited Cielo Rojo to celebrate a friend's birthday. I'd been to the original location, and had a great time. This second visit at the new location met my expectations. From making the reservation, to bringing dessert to the table, it was an awesome experience. We were a fluid party of 8 or so people, and we were seated in a back room with plenty of space to really enjoy each others' company. Everyone loved their meal and their drink. Prices are reasonable. Ambiance is quite lovely for an elevated-casual experience.“

“Food was very fresh and tasty. Staff was super friendly and attentive. They gave me some great recommendations and treated us well. Lamb kabob was so delicious. Atmosphere was nice and place was very clean and well lit. I highly recommend and plan on coming back.“

“great services! good drinks!“

“We visited with our family over the weekend and had a great experience! The staff is very friendly and helped with any questions and requests we had during our visit. Our favorites were the shrimp and beef birria tacos. We look forward to visiting again and would recommend to others!!“

“If you love delicious, authentic food. You've found the place!Sabor Chapin Offers amazing service, delicious food I highly recommend the Carne Asada! Compared to other local Taquerias, Sabor Chapin has Columbia’s top most flavorful tacos, and Carne Asadas! Their pasta is absolutely delectable too. The best part you get exactly what you pay for and honestly more. I recommend Sabor Chapin to everyone and not one person has disagreed on how amazing the food is. Amazingly the man who runs the show is the chef himself!I so highly recommend and support his small business. I hope to see him open his restaurant soon.“

“DMV Taqueria food truck is highly recommended! It’s smart to call in your order as they’ve grown in popularity as the word’s gotten out. My neighbor loves their chicken quesadillas. My favorite is the shrimp quesadillas, but honestly, you can’t go wrong with any of the menu items. I understand the churros are a favorite too, though I’ve not personally tried them. The drive home is brutal. The food smells so amazing, I can’t park the car fast enough. 5⭐️“

“Easiest five stars I can give! I found Tacos a la Madre a few years ago - they have the absolute best tacos in the PG area for a fantastic price! Nowadays, I get the nine taco bundle for $34ish bucks. These bundles are great for two or three people to enjoy for a meal and come with different types of salsa (mild or spicy), cut limes, and a quick bag of chips. The food is just so flavorful - my favorite proteins are the carnitas, the steak, and the shrimp. But honestly, they're all perfect. They have quite a few other menu options too - I've wanted to try the quesadillas or the carne asada fries for the longest but can't bring myself to visit and not get a platter of tacos. The service is quick and friendly. The staff gets you in and out of the restaurant fairly quickly and do a nice job of making you feel welcome. The restaurant itself is pretty small but it's usually not too busy inside so you can find a place to sit if you'd like to eat inside. The best seating though is at one of the shaded picnic style tables in front of the restaurant. This front patio on a sunny day is the perfect spot to enjoy some delicious bites. I'll 100% be back soon!“

“Had a wonderful experience for Mother’s Day!! Our waiter was Jhony and he was excellent. It was just me and Mom and we asked for the two person seafood paella. He suggested the special for today which was the lobster paella and it was amazing. The service was great, the food was amazing!! The food did take a while to come out but that is to be expected on Mother’s Day!! I will definitely be coming here again!!“

“Los tacos super ricos RECOMENDADOS“

“The food was fantastic. I had the tacos and the hibiscus margaritas. The service was great too!“

“This use to be the old Applebees I think but it's handling it's business very well! It's Sunday and not a table around! The bar was stocked with patrons but our wait was t long at all. Once seated a very nice waitress approached and gave us menus. We asked for recommendations and I really like that she took the time to ask us what was our preferred choice of spirits so she could offer us something based on our preferences-BIG KUDOS! My selection of the Cancun Margarita didn't disappoint! It comes in an actual pineapple with plenty of liquor but not overpowering! The guacamole was supposed to be made table side but it was so crowded she couldn't get down the aisle with her cart! Although I like that experience as you're able to ask them to add a little more lemon or such/such but it was GREAT! We chose the queso with ground beef but that isn't anything special with that. I did see a Snapper on another table that I want to try with my next visit! Parking is great(in the shopping center lot) prices are reasonable and the staff all seem to care. Everyone chipped in on duties the manager even came around to tables thanking patrons for being there. Bathrooms were clean and easily accessible even under the influence of 2 of those drinks(had a little stumble ) and oh yes they sneak up on you so don't be like me and choose more than you should. Overall, I can see myself driving back here for happy hours or even a late night meal! Another table had some Mexican Candy shits( these weren't regular shots though) those WILL definitely be the first drink on the next visit!“

“Good service, great food!“

“A cool place to hang out and eat some delicious Tacos (the birria is my favorite) and drink some really great drinks (I love the margarita!). With the new tables that are lower, this place is even more accessible for everyone. Five stars!“

“This business goes above and beyond every single time. The food is delicious and the service can't be beat. I regularly get lunches delivered for 20+ people and they always arrive on time and are super popular with the group.Vegetarian options: Chana Masala“

“Good portion! Everything was well seasoned and fresh. I had the steak bowl (grilled peppers, grilled corn, salsa, sour cream, cheese) and a large side of chips and guacamole. Chips were salted and the guacamole was fresh with a hint of citrus. After the bowl, I couldn't finish the chips but it wasn't for lack of trying! lol. 100x better than Chipotle and they give adult portions. Only issue - it arrived ice cold! like it was in the fridge. Quick reheat and it was all good.“

“We came here for our monthly family dinner night. We wanted to try a new spot. Ambiance - Cute. Really liked the seafood art in the walls. And the smell when you first walked in was incredible. We knew we were going to eat well. Food/Drinks - Hubby and I really enjoyed our drinks. I got La dama. He got the mango mojito. And my daughter also liked her strawberry lemonade. My favorite thing was the corn salad, but it was hard to pick a favorite because everything was so good! Service - 10/10. Everyone was so attentive and they made sure I got good footage for my blog. They kept our glasses full as well. Overall, try this place out! The flavors and customer service are truly amazing. They're going to need a bigger location soon!“

“We had a wonderful experience at the best tacos that we’ve ever had in DC here! Esmeralda was a wonderful waitress and the environment was super fun and authentic!“

“Nicest staff here and the food was incredible!!!I’m from California where the MEXICAN FOOD IS FOR REAL. And this is THE ONLY PLACE AS GOOD AS CALI MEX!!!! I’ve been to like 20 Mexican spots and been disappointed every time mumbling after “Not as good as Cali but still love Mexican so it’s ok.”Not here!THIS PLACE ROCKS!!! Best Mexican in the area hands downnnnnnnnnnn~~~~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~~“

“A nice little food truck near the university of Maryland. I came here for a fencing tournament with my girlfriend and we want to satisfy our yearning for tasty Mexican food. We found this food truck 4 mins away from the university of Maryland. I loved their gorditas, and they have a good variety of tacos and even serve birria as well.“

“great staff and delicious food“

“Very tasty food, pleasant atmosphere and attentive staff. Will come back,“

“Amongst the skyscraping urban sprawl that downtown Bethesda has become, sits this humble, if not crumbling old structure. The authenticity of its casual, airy ambiance is mirrored by the age old recipes that emerge from the kitchen. I must admit that my exploration of the menu has not been extensive, because the Sopa de Pollo (Chicken Soup)is so uniquely delicious and filling, that there is usually no room for an entree. Come for the Sopa de Pollo and bring a big appetite!!!“

“Drinks and food is great!“

“Amazing restaurant ❤️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️“

“good food --- many choices“

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

“My husband treated us to lunch from Krazi Kebob, and his recommendation of the Chicken Kati Rolls turned out to be an absolute game-changer for my taste buds. As someone unfamiliar with this type of food, I had no idea what to expect, but let me tell you, the experience was nothing short of fantastic. The highlight of the meal was undoubtedly the Chicken Kati Rolls. The chicken was bursting with flavor. The recommended side of spicy sauce added an extra kick that elevated the overall experience. To complement the rolls, we also ordered fries. They were perfectly cooked and paired exceptionally well with a mayo dip. Adding to the positive experience was the seamless pick-up process. Ordering was a breeze, and when we arrived to collect our meal, everything was ready and waiting. Definitely coming back!“

“Have been in and out of that Exxon many times, and never even considered eating here. I was hungry and grabbed a chicken quesadilla to go. It was one of the best quesadillas I've ever had, have since been back and gotten the steak and some other things. The cheese pulls are ridiculous. Hidden Gem!“

“A great hidden gem! Jalapeño-Cucumber Margarita is amazing! Great flavor! Had Carne Asada - so perfect. Guacamole with bacon - yum! I highly recommend this restaurant!“

“Good service, great food!“

“The salmon birria tacos are a must try. The accompanying consomé is rich and flavorful. It tastes like homemade seafood stock with a little cream. They could sell that alone with a little shellfish and be straight. I found the tacos to be small, and the salmon was overcooked which was a bummer. But, I like that you can order everything as singles, and I love that they offer consomé without having to order three daggone tacos! I thought the other offerings were just aight, but will return for these. Very warm, kind staff. When you encounter helpful, smiling faces, you feel welcome and appreciated. Thanks ladies.“

“Amazing food , the staff are very friendly and attentive , manager Edith is the best he is always at from checking everything making the customers special , my orders always are correct and food always are very delicious!Thank you Eddy and team!! District taco is the best !!! ?♥️Kid-friendliness: Great staff“

“I just had a company meeting here and it was excellent! Service and food was phenomenal as always. I can’t thank them enough for providing a great atmosphere for me and my company. I will definitely be having a team meeting here again.“

“Highly recommend,… great food and fun atmosphere.“

“The team there is amazing, they are approachable and very helpful. It was our first time there, but they made it easier for us to pick a meal which was very tasty.“

“Always awesome food!!! Highly recommend“

“Excellent mole- will definitely be back for it. Had the birria tacos which were perfect, fried and crunchy but not greasy- which is incredible given the generous amount of meat and Oaxaca cheese in the tacos. The service was very attentive and kind.“

“We ate in J&J when staying I the area. The food was fantastic. Service was friendly and welcoming. Would definitely recommend.“

“Taqueria Habanero is the standard to beat for a taqueria. Very happy to see them continue with the food truck after the unfortunate loss of their storefront to redevelopment. Despite the obvious limitations of working out of a food truck, the quality of their offerings has not been affected. They are always our first choice for authentic Mexican. Great food and quick friendly service.“

“Delicious food. Great service.“

“Very good food, with the best flavor in the area!!“

“Always great service /food/drinks we will always return“

“Some Exquisite Tacos de Lengua, The sauce 5 Stars, the truth is that I recommend it, the attention needs more charisma, more relationship with the Client, not feeling Obliged, but rather feeling Love for serving so that the client leaves convinced of Returning, More helpful , but all good….“

“Montgomery County's first Taco Bell Cantina, and it's absolutely a welcome addition! As soon as we heard this opened up, we definitely had to come give it a try. We got some Cantina exclusive items: Cantina Crispy Chicken Taco Cantina Chicken Quesadilla Cantina Chicken Burrito Baja Blast Slushy with Tequila For the food, my favorite item was the Cantina Crispy Chicken Taco! It's cheap at only $3 each, has well seasoned chicken and cheese on the inside, with a crispy cheese on the taco shell. All the Cantina items come with the tasty Avocado Verde Salsa Sauce which I haven't seen anywhere else! For the drinks, you have to order any alcoholic beverages at the counter understandably. We had to get the Baja Blast slushy, and we decided to have tequila be our choice of liquor. The combination was pretty tasty, and the slushy itself was cold and had sweet Baja Blast flavors! I will say, it would be nice if there was a bit more liquor per serving for the price, it is a bit on the lighter side, so you can order a double shot if you like it stronger.“

“Great staff, super hospitable and very personable with service. The food is fresh and tasty!“
