“Edit 10/26/25
Had dinner for a school fundraiser last week. We ordered tacos, flautas and a quesadilla. Everything was really good, 5 stars!

Second time ordering and will likely not give this place another try. Terribly heavy on the salt and also, who doesn't serve tacos with extra limes on the side? If it's worth anything the chicken flautas were decent.“

“I was greeted by Trevor the manager who was very kind, the food and the vibe was amazing and the service from Jade and Isabella was phenomenal. They would all be the reason i return. Such a great place if i could give more stars i definitely would !!“

“I had a great experience at Taco Bell! The food was fresh, hot, and exactly what I expected. The staff was friendly, and the service was quick. I love how customizable the menu is, and everything was packed neatly. Definitely a solid choice for a tasty, affordable meal!“

“Huge shoutout to Tyreke and Maya at the DC Wharf location. Both of them recommended the glazed pork belly taco and bowl. Let me just say they deserve a promotion! The pork belly was the best tasting food I’ve ever had. Holy cow thank you both of you for that recommendation. Also, an additional shoutout to Tyreke for the churro selection for us off the dessert menu. I mean this has been the best meal we have had since being in DC! Thanks again for the recommendations and hope to see you in Indiana when you open one in our town 👊🏻👊🏻“

“Taco Bamba was playing some rocking music when we ordered our Tacos on a great fall day. The portions are reasonable and not huge. Flavor instead of large size, with several tasty dressings you choose yourself, after preparation. The quesadillas with carne asada were packed with flavor and quality sear.“

“Loved it enough to go back the next day to try another dish. Really enjoyed blackened fish taco plate and then the salmon taco plate the next day. Also had the ceviche. It was flavorful and I enjoyed it. I was recently spoiled having ceviche in Ecuador...and Ecuadorean ceviche wins in a head to head.“

“First time seeing this place, but I knew what I wanted immediately. Loaded fresh birria tacos, the most satisfying in northern Virginia. Ask for hot sauce upgrades! I didn't dip these because they seem perfect as served. Get some tres leches to soothe the sizzle.“

“Visiting from Birmingham, this was some of the BEST Mexican food I have ever had. It was very affordable and delicious.“

“Muy buen servicio, amabilidad y la comida muy picante y rica!!!“

“I am a fan of San Ramons, the spicy salsa is perfect...its spicy, the green salsa tastes fresh and the their house salsa is really good too. The tortillas are maize! Corn. Which is the way. Como en casa, gracias! The staff is very cool too. And the ambiance is cool, southern Cali vibes. I'll be back soon for sure.“

“James who took my order was beyond helpful welcome me in while I was waiting in line greeting me with a big smile broke down the menu completely explain the differences as it was my first time I heard about it. Great conversation food was made fresh one of the cooks walked to another guest Eden and asked how it was drove all the way here from Norfolk, Virginia you can see the picture of the tacos are loaded, which you don’t get from down comes from let me try to tzatziki sauce to see if I like it before getting it on the side“

“Dining here was a mixed bag. First, I expected more fusion. It's not really a fusion restaurant. You can order tex-mex OR you can order Korean but the only real fusion on the menu is two taco choices or one meal.

I went with the tacos. They were fairly bland. Nothing made me overly excited to have ordered them.

Now what I loved was the ambient temperature. I HATE how no matter how hot it is outside I have to carry a jacket with me because it's always freezing cold inside in America. That wasn't the case here. I had my jacket with me but I never needed it. It was a nice comfortable temperature inside.

The restroom was clean.

The interior design is 100% Dia de los Muertos, no Korean fusion in the art but it was still cool.

The bar looked well stocked. I bet it's a fun place to have a drink with friends.

The service was okay.“

“Service was outstanding and the food was exceptional.“

“I have never left a review of anywhere. But I love Shawarma Taco with my entire being. I was given a sample of my meal as they were preparing it and that sample bite was the best thing that could have happened. And then came my actual Shawarma…Every bite was filled with every topping I ordered. I can die happy knowing I’ve had some of the best food to exist.“

“We love Fish Taco's fish burritos and tacos. Their burritos are tasty and filling.“

“Just tried Charlies Bowl and we'll definitely be repeat customers. Ordered the 10 taco meal (chicken, pork, chorizo) and they were all delicious. The Latin Sandwich we split as well was amazing. I hope the kitchen stays open in Vienna.“

“The best tacos I have ever eaten in the US! (And I travel for a living)“

“Excelente atención al cliente, la comida exquisita 👌 100% recomendado, nos atendió la sra Eneyda 💛“

“What an amazing lunch at this restaurant, the food was so fresh and delicious, our server Emma was so sweet and gave great food and drink recommendations. We will definitely be back and ask for Emma.
P.S. you should try the margaritas and you have to get the chicken Tinga burrito and the churros just melt in your mouth!“

“Saw the feature in CBS Saturday Morning show while traveling and was going to be near there later that same evening so was able to indulge. Delicious, quality food at very reasonable prices. The roast pork was perfect!“

“We went and really enjoyed the food…“

“The bodega recently changed ownership and today is when their meat counter opened. I think I was the first customer and I bought a tri tip, an excellent cut of beef not carried by the local supermarkets. The restaurant portion of the store makes everything fresh to order, including the tortillas.“

“We were looking for a way to get dinner for 4 takeout for less than$10/pp tonight and my husband suggested this restaurant after just discovering it earlier this week. This is a cheap eating gem! We will absolutely be back.“

“Outstanding food!,drinks, very fresh, and very friendly staff!. I highly recommend it“

“Just had the most amazing tacos at Taki Tacos! The flavors were spot-on and totally authentic—felt like a trip to Mexico. Plus, the service was super fast, so I didn’t have to wait long to dig in. Definitely my new go-to spot for tacos!“

“I stopped by yesterday to purchase some tacos, I got a mix of them. These are the best tacos I’ve gotten, they were juicy and it was a good amount of protein. I also like the cleanliness of the work station as well as the store.
The service of the server Senia was excellent.
I would definitely go back to this District Taco often.“

“Corndog was great, right amount of breading and cheese.Fries was great, they were golden brown and crispy.Mango lemonade was sweet.Chicken wings were decently sized. However, I wished the seasoning stuck to them. The honey gathered at the bottom. I just dipped the wings in the honey but wings need stickier seasoning.Still definitely worth a try though.“
