“beautiful place, food so good, good customer service, good price too 🥰🥰😘I love it“

“Let me tell you. This Taco Bell is my home base. My rock. My reliable ex with the good good. Because it’s always open late, and it always bangs.

In all seriousness I have never had anything wrong with an order here. I have come through that driveway more than a handful of times at 1 and 2 am car full of people hungry as hell.

And no matter how obnoxious or annoyingly long our order the staff has treated us with kindness and respect. It’s the kind of fast food experience you dream about.

I LOVE these guys and gals and 100% gotta give late night their props. You are AWESOME.“

“Best birria tacos ever! Make sure you get the sides, rice, beans, esquiotes (elotes in a bowl). It was so good we got food to go to eat tomorrow. We live 60 miles away and unanimously agreed to come back here just for the food. They are getting a liquor license and will start serving drinks next week. I can't wait to return. Additional bonus, the staff was awesome, friendly, helpful, hospitable and the food came out quickly.“

“Love Marianna and Juan!!! The best taco hands down and we sit next to each other. She’s like my sister and I eat there often. Try the brisket and you won’t be disappointed“

“The food was fantastic, service was also fantastic. Would recommend this great place to anyone! Thank you, and you will be seeing me again!“

“The BEST Mexican food truck in the area! It is super authentic and always fresh. The food is amazing but in particular they’re made to order tamales. You have to contact the owners wife and get a minimum of 12 either chicken, pork, or rajas but trust me it’s worth it!“

“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 !!“

“Fantastic food! Wow! Calamari was so fresh, lightly crispy and the sauce with it was amazing. I’m really impressed.“

“This restaurant has the best Mexican food in Northern Virginia. The staff is outstanding. We go there almost every week.“

“The shiny painted booths and Spanish music really set the scene, and the food is outstanding.

This particular El-Paso seems to be the best in the area, with the most flavorful food, best service, and timely preparation speeds.

The beans with queso is fantastic, so don’t miss the chance to try it.“

“Great food, service and price!“

“A hidden gem of a restaurant! Incredible portions (prices matched the quality and serving sizes 👏), family-friendly staff that were incredibly attentive, and we left feeling full and content. Every dish was delicious, we will definitely be back 😀“

“Muy buena comida muy bien a tendida“

“Food was delicious and now they sell liquor!! We got veggie quesadillas and lime margaritas. You can decide if you want top shelf or house. My only complaint is they could be a little stronger for the price but the waiter was very knowledgeable of the various liquors and answered all our questions. Come on over to Indian Head for this little 💎gem! We’ll definitely be back!“

“Very good and friendly swevers.“

“On 12/4/25 my wife and I visited Anita's for lunch. It was not our first visit, but it dawned on us during this visit that this restaurant had many of the features which we were looking for for a large family gathering on 12/10/25 following an outdoor funeral/burial in Fairfax: a separable part of the restaurant for 30-40 attendees, a large immediately adjacent parking lot, a location already familiar to many of the attendees, an in-house bar, an expandable staff to service our group, an ability for attendees to order from Anita's regular menu and reasonable prices. Our recommendation to choose Anita's was accepted by leaders of our group, our choice was papered with Anita's catering staff and notices of the selection with address and directions were prepared for our group. Our burial ceremony was reduced in length due to the cold weather so that we set out for Antia's earlier than planned. We alerted Anita's of our early arrival. Everything went exceedingly well. Our sporadically arriving group was seated, menus distributed, drink and then food orders were taken and food started to come out of the kitchen. More than adequate supplemental staff had been arranged to serve us by Anita's. Payment arrangements were quickly made with Anita's and, under the circumstances, everyone appeared to have had a memorable visit. I apologize for the length and detail of this review, but I thought that the background of our visit to this remarkable restaurant would better put into context the circumstances of our visit and our appreciation and thanks to Anita's for its handling of the situation.“

“Amazing food and great service!“

“I highly recommend them! Their food is amazing!“

“I really enjoy their chips and salsa, you really can’t go wrong with Mexican food and Chuys does it right! Their rice is delicious. I got their steak tacos with double rice, and thoroughly enjoyed them. Would come back to this place. The atmosphere is also fun and lively!“

“best breakfast burritos in the world“

“Papusas are a definite choice and parrillada Rosita is a good selection of meats.“

“Very friendly waiter and good food 🙂“

“The best tacos around the area without a doubt. As a Mexican, it is tough to find good tacos around here and we always prefer homemade. But these tacos are legit. The taste is authentic and simply to die for!🤤 The queso birria tacos with the consomé are amazing! The tortas and the consomé on its own are delicious as well. Everything is top tier. Wishing continued success to Tacos El Vale✨“

“EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE!!! We came a long distance to get Cafe Rio to go to take to our daughter and son-in-law who just had a baby and requested Cafe Rio. The staff happily served us an even separated some items so the food wouldn't get soggy. We love this company and even better, we live this food!“

“My sister is obsessed with all the animals like the flamingos and the giraffe, lol. The food came in about 10 minutes, and it was so good! I highly recommend this restaurant! ?“

“This place making a killing! The rice is not Mexican it taste peruvian....Peruvian..... but the rest they nailed it I thought it was knocked down . But I was told they moved across the street. from route 1 widening. But the rice does not taste Mexican everything else was great!!“

“Comida exquisita ,, Me Encanto“

“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.“

“Good eats, reminds me of UMBC days @bj“

“La mejor comida que he probado!! Si usted es de la personas de buen gusto, que no le satisface cualquier comida, tiene que comer aquí, este Restaurante le va encantar, cuentan, con unos de los mejores chefs del área, pregunte por Don Jesúsito es el chef de la casa, es una de las personas más famosas del restaurante, creo que los clientes preguntas más por el chef, que por las demás personas que trabajan en ese lugar. No puede irse sin probar los deliciosos nachos mixtos de entrada y los ceviches al estilo peruano y de las sopas de mariscos de camaron con crema y las demás sopas ni hablar, tiene que visitar y probar todos los platillos hechos por el chef más famoso de Woodbridge. Recomendadisimo, una experiencia realmente complaciente para los amantes del buen gusto.“

“This place RULES. Their quesadillas are amazing and probably the best in all of NOVA.“

“Really good food & affordable place to eat when you use your Moe’s app rewards. I hardly get takeout yet I was able to get a free soft taco and chips with different salsas and sauces with free guacamole to go using my app reward points last year & reward. I liked the new additional sauces they added. The service was great and they got me two samples of ranch sauce quickly since it ran out at the self serving area. The ambiance of the place was simple and clean. I came there late at night when they were near closing time (10 PM). was glad to get there in time. The free chips they gave with my taco were still delicious the next day and still good to eat after heating in the microwave. Actually they were the best chips I ever got from a Mexican food place. Will definitely visit this Moe’s more often. Cheers!“

“Klebers Restaurant, is an excellent place to eat and enjoy karaoke, whoever wants to say otherwise is in bad taste and little class, there you can play billiards for free too and the attention is appropriate and good service TOTALLY RECOMMENDED,13634 Jefferson Davis HwyWoodbridgeVirginiaAttended by its Owner and collaborators.???“

“Big plate of good food for a reasonable price“

“The first time we went here we weren't impressed. However, one of the owners reached out to us personally and invited us back. We have been back twice. They are awesome! The food is yummy and reasonably priced. Staff is very friendly! Only downside is they now do not have fountain drinks (cans only) but I think that's just a sign of the time of living in a pandemic. Hopefully, when we return to a somewhat normal existence this will be back. Love Guapo's and highly recommend!“

“I highly recommend them! Their food is amazing!“

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

“I love this place and always order yuca Frita with chicharrónes to start great good and customer service is always great thank you.“

“I purchased almost everything on their menu, my family and I have tried their tacos de carne asada and pollo, torta de carne asada, and their quesadilla de birria. I have no complaints on the tacos or tortas. They tasted amazing. Their birria is a little saltier than I would want it to be. Their side of consome and rice is so delicious. I wouldn't mind going again just for tacos and tortas. I cant wait to try their steak and cheese subs. I'm looking forward to trying that next. I spent almost $50 wiht 2 quesdillas de birria, 3 tacos de carne asada, 3 de pollo, a torta de asada and a sidral. For that much food no complaints“

“My choice over Chipotle any day!“

“My husband and I are visiting the area but I grew up in Virginia so we are familiar with the area. We were looking for a Peruvian chicken experience. We found a delicious diverse menu full of Peruvian specialties at a super affordable price!

The waitstaff are extremely friendly and helpful. On the day of our visit there was a young lady preparing fresh fruit cups in front of restaurant.

Our purchase was 2 orders of El Tipico, 1 loroco pupusa, 1 ayote pupusa, half of a roasted chicken (for the drive home) and a 16oz fresh pink guava juice as well as a sweet fruity cashew drink called Maranon. We also snagged a watermelon cup on our way out.

The restaurant wasn’t very busy so I hope more people will visit and keep them in business. Our entire purchase was less than $60 which is unheard of in Northern Virginia. Definitely worth the visit! 👍👍“

“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.“

“By far my favorite Sushi place!“

“Food was good but they cheap with sauce. You bought 1 order of 1/2chicken w/2sides you get the same amount of sauce for 4 orders of 1/2 chicken. This is in Bowie Md location. I guess I am not coming back there again.“

“Great food. The service was quick And our waiter was amazing.“
