“I was there last. night (Thursday) and the Octopus was delightful as was my 'ordinary' salmon plate with their delicious veggies....The home sparking pink wine served in an unusual goblet was ample and perfect (a substitute for the more expensive Brut when they didn't have theirs cooled._ The alternative was just as good. I'm no connoisseur but I know a good meal when I'm finished. Food ample and the less expensive dishes looked just as appetizing as the more expensive ones. I want to try almost everything once....”

“I love this place, the food is pretty good, the staff is very friendly, it's family owned. I wish they had more sitting, but for being a food truck, they have a pretty nice set up. I always call ahead to order so that I don't have to wait. I recommend the beef tacos and the pupusas :)”

“I came for lunch and got enchiladas. You order at the counter, but are served on a nice dish with pleasant plating. The enchiladas were very good: the chicken was soft and full of flavor and the sauce has a pleasant sweetness you hope for. The rice and beans that accompanied were nice as well. Service was fast and everyone was accommodating. The only minor negative I have is that the place feels slightly run down - no where near hole in the wall but some wear was showing on the sauce bottles and decorations. I will easily come here again to enjoy the great food and service while appreciating the aesthetics despite the very minor wear.”

“Very fresh ingredients go into the excellent tortillas that make their tacos. There are many variations that make it hard to decide, but you can’t go wrong with any of them. The enchiladas are equally delicious. This is a great neighborhood restaurant with a nice atmosphere. I hope they NEVER get rid of the cheesecake flan! It is the best dessert they have and is a MUST for anyone who tries this restaurant for the first time.”

The shredded beef (not canned) was tender and full of flavor and the chicken fajitas were delicious too. We had the flan and coconut bread pudding (my favorite). Will be back again!!!”

“Great steak tacos and also had the mushroom bowl which was so fresh. The three fresh made mild/medium/hot sauces were pretty good. The decor is a very simple box so it gets really loud with just a few people in the restaurant. Bottled soft drinks are the only options. I will be going back to try more menu options.”

“Favorite place in Leesburg. Very unassuming, low-key decor but the food is off the charts good. The guacamole is the best I’ve ever had. The Camerones à la plancha (grilled shrimp) is stupendously yummy. I’m newly addicted to the chicken crema dish. And more on the menu! Outdoor seating as well as indoor. Come try this place - we’ve been going for years and never had a bad meal!”

“A hidden gem in the town of Leesburg. There are a lot of central/south American restaurants in this town, and I've tried all of them. I think this one is the best in taste, portions, and value. Possibly the best papusas I've ever had, and very cheap at less than 3 a piece. Friendly staff, but food takes a lot of time. Which means it's fresh, and made with love!”

“I stumbled upon this p-lace when I was poking around on TripAdvisor. I had never had Salvadoran food before, but ask my dad what he thought of pupusas. He said he loved them, so I thought I would give them a try. After a long day at work, I swung by and they were empty (too late for lunch and a tad early for dinner). I walked right up to the counter and got my to-go order. I got three pupusas and they were ready in ten minutes. The plain cheese one was fantastic and super gooey. The pork one was by far my favorite with a nice mix of meat and cheese. The bean one was my least favorite as it was a tad dry. The pupusas themselves were definitely hand made and were bigger than I expected. I kind of just wish I had gotten two of them as three just made me so full. But I could not stop eating...”

“Moe’s Southwest Grill at Arundel Mills is an easy go-to spot when you’re already at the mall and want something quick and filling for lunch or a snack. The menu is super customizable, so you can build your burrito, bowl, or tacos exactly how you like it, and portions are usually pretty generous for the price. The food court setup makes it convenient, but service and speed can be hit or miss depending on how busy it is and who’s working that day. Overall, it’s a solid option if you’re craving Tex-Mex while shopping, especially if you like loading up on toppings and walking away with a big, messy, satisfying meal.”

“The food was great. I got a breakfast taco for $3.89 (I think) and it was loaded with fillings (I got egg, sausage, potato, and shredded cheese). The tortilla itself was very good. It felt and tasted homemade. The service was pretty mid. I started off with a man, and I don't know if he was new or what, but he either absolutely did not know what to do or was pretending to be incompetent to get out of doing work. First, he had to get help from the woman who was working to even start making the taco. After she said to put the sausage and egg onto the tortilla (kinda wild that he didn't know to do that), instead of putting the sausage on the tortilla, he started breaking it up into the egg container (so maybe don't eat here if you're a strict vegetarian, lol). She noticed what he was doing and verbally corrected him (with very clear instructions) and he just kinda gave up and walked away, so she had to take over. She was clearly frustrated, which is totally understandable given she was already doing other work. I hope she sees this review and knows that she was totally valid to be frustrated, because what do you mean you don't know how to make a taco?! If this guy is a new employee, he needs someone to train him better. But also, if he gets so confused about scooping prepared food into a prepared tortilla, maybe he needs a role with different responsibilities.”

“My family and I had a great experience at Cafe Rio in Herndon! I recently tried to use a bonus code, but the system accidentally overcharged me. Fortunately, Felipe and the rest of the staff immediately acknowledged the issue and took the time to make it right. They were professional, understanding, and genuinely cared about fixing the situation. They even provided a gift card for the inconvenience, which I appreciated. I used to be a regular at the Ashburn, VA location, and since it closed down. I’ll definitely be visiting the Herndon location more often. Thank you, Felipe and team, for the great service!”

“These guys came to the St. John the Apostle Parish Picnic today and were quite pleasant folks. They had a very positive demeanor and served food that was absolutely incredible. The burrito that I ate was absolutely delicious and garnered the admiration of multiple different people. 10/10, I would eat here again. I actually almost got a burrito to go but was sad to see that they had already left for the day.”
