I ordered the cheese enchiladas with fish and oh my goodness were they ever great! The cheese enchiladas were very tasty, the sauce was great and there were nice chunks of grilled fish on top. I plan to go back soon even though I don't live in the area. The flan is also very good.

Compadres catered our holiday party and we couldn't be happier! The food was absolutely delicious, an incredible value, and there were generous portions – plenty for everyone.

George was super communicative and helpful throughout, and their team even set everything up for us, making the party a total breeze.

Can't wait for my next visit – highly recommend!

Enjoyable for a casual lunch.

We came across Los Compadres while in town and decided to give it a go. It is right in the middle of a small plaza so parking is abundant. A sign greeted us at the door for margarita specials as we walked in.
The atmosphere was casual with plenty of seats and a nice full bar. We settled at a table and ordered queso, carnitas, tamales, and flautas. For drinks we had horchata and margaritas.

The margaritas tasted like the pre-mix bottle, just add tequila. The horchata was pretty good.
The queso was orange- I strongly believe in a good queso blanco so this queso missed the spot for me.
The taquitos were a good texture and size but a little simple. The carnitas had a good flavoring but would have been better paired with something else… the pico on the side didn’t cut it. It was a traditional tomato and onion combination and I could barely taste any flavors on it. The chips were pretty good, with a sprinkle of tahini on them? Some red powder that we enjoyed. All in all, the meal was alright but could have used stronger flavors. We also didn’t notice any margarita special pricing on our receipt- perhaps it was a specific item.

Either way, at least there is a decent Mexican restaurant in the area.

Kinda sucks to write a less than great review. The food was fine. It’s nothing different than what you’ll find at every other mediocre Mexican joint. The real problem was the absurd amount of time we waited to get our food. It got to the point that I was trying to flag our server down to just pay for the drinks and leave when the food finally came out. Maybe it was an off night and they’re actually better than that; I doubt I’ll be finding out. Pass this one up and look for something else.

The audacity to charge me for chile rellenos and then not bread or fry the poblanos. This restaurant is just a joke to them apparently.

Had a nice lunch here. Took advantage of the lunch specials which were delicious. From the tacos to the enchiladas to the beans it was all excellent.

It is a smaller than typical portion - but just right for lunch. Friendly server as well.

I have a bone to pick with this resturant. I got the LARGE queso togo (8 dollars). I was shocked to see that an 8 dollar large queso is two little sauce dishes that resturants typically use to give ketchup. Needless to say I will not be back and I am writing this review so others are not robbed blind. There are other Mexican resturants in the area, go somewhere else. By the way two people at the bar on a Saturday night at 530 is not a sign of a healthy business. Maybe you should change your ways.

We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food! We got the shrimp tacos, prima carne asada, sangria and the big kona wave, and everything was great. This may be one of the best mexican restaurants in the dmv!
