“I have been going to Silvestre Chicken for about 13 years.Each location never disappoints! Most carryout restaurants charge extra for a sauce.When you have 2 pounds of food, you only get 2 , 2 ounce cups. They were happy to oblige!!
Parking: Located in a multi purpose shopping center, with multiple rows of parking spaces.“

“We were searching for something local to try because we were visiting from out of town. The young man who waited on us was really helpful when we had questions, and the food was fantastic. The friend plantains and the Peruvian chicken were both quite tasty. Strongly advised!“

“Pub like atmosphere with an eclectic menu. Service was pretty good, and certainly helpful and friendly. The menu is somewhat like a tapas place in that the portions are fairly small and if you go hungry, you may need to order more than one. Has an outside area, heated, where you enjoy the official bird song of Washington DC - the police siren.“

“Excellent food! Food was exactly as pictured. Even the photos are great. Friendly staff. The restaurant is in a little strip of stores that looks older. Don't let that fool you. The inside is really nice. Restaurant is clean. Bathrooms are nice.“

“I am so glad I found out about this place! The only plant-based restaurant in the entire DMV area with a Michelin star. We had the 14-course tasting menu. Happycow only allows 9 photos, so I can't upload the whole meal but I wish I could! The menu has four "acts". It began with prickly pear/tajin candies with edible rice paper wrappers. Then a hot cocoa with rum. Then 5 types of arepas (pictured) with 3 different dips... the cashew sour cream was sublime! That was the opening act. First act included the yuba, celery root, and black bean mole on a crisp (pictured), that has been posted elsewhere as it's on top of a glass box with money in it. Referring as an offering to ancestors. The next course was a delicious soup with fava beans and plantains, the recipe of the executive chef's grandmother. Then a watermelon, carrot, and avocado dish (pictured). I am not usually a watermelon fan but this type was good. Second act included coconut ceviche, a small bite with heart of palm and seaweed and tomato (pictured), and a main dish of roasted beet with wild rice and black truffle (pictured). Also a black bean tamale with trumpet mushroom (pictured, though the mushroom was way too salty - my only complaint of the entire meal). Third act included a melon, parsnip, and basil snack, a dessert with cherry and mochi (pictured, tribute to the DC cherry blossom trees), and a candy made of dulce de leche. We finished with a mango sorbet as it was a special occasion (off-menu). I had the tequila flight (very slowly throughout the meal), which complemented each dish. My partner, who is not a vegan, said it was the best meal she's ever had in the DMV area, ever! We got to talk to the owner/chef. All the servers were very gracious and happy to hear how much we loved the food. Plus, we met celebrity chef Pati Jinich, who was there seated at the table next to us and very kind when we thought we recognized her as someone we knew, but in reality we had seen her on TV! Just a coincidence that she was there. All the dishes are Latin inspired from all different countries in central and south America. Overall an unforgettable experience. Tasting menu was $150 per person when we went in April 2025, plus tax/tip etc. You won't regret going there! Updated from previous review on 2025-04-20“

“Such a great experience! We chose the tapas experience and lemme tell you, it got us so full! Didn’t have a chance to try the cocktails but the mocktails were great. The presentation of the food and drinks were spectacular. The aesthetic of the restaurant was warm.
Can’t wait to be back!“

“I sat in the bar and had the hilachas guatemaltecas, and it was excellent and included homemade corn tortillas. The hilachas stew was a bit more potato heavy than I expected but that did not detract from the experience. It was also my first time having it, so it was a learning experience for me.
The service at the bar was excellent. I overheard people saying that the server was the cutest! She was incredibly nice and definitely makes you feel welcomed and seems excited that you’re there as a customer. It’s refreshing to receive such nice treatment.
The west facing windows bring afternoon light, and it has a cute ambience that would be great for a small group, a couple, or even just one person to grab lunch or dinner.
The “booth” side seating has a cushion for your bottom, but the wall is your back. There are several other tables with all chairs though, and there are two small sidewalk tables outside.“

“Very good happy hour! (4-7pm) The prices are affordable and the aperol spritz is a very good size compared to other restaurants that give a small glass. I recommend the nachos and tacos to share. The service is a little slow but it can be improved.“

“Very small restaurant but very home like. It’s a nice space. The staff are nice and caring. The service is very quick as well. Been coming to this place since I was a kid and I still go. I always order the carne asada tacos and the tacos are so cheap and it’s generous with the size of it.
Parking: It’s like 5-6 spots on the right side of the restaurant.“

“Rooftop on the Marriott great atmosphere. The service was good with the chef coming out to greet everyone at their table. They have multiple heaters which was perfect after the sun went down. I had the portobello app, very tasty. Also had the Baked fish dish, good seafood variety and flavor. I wish they served bread though.“
