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

“Like six years ago, this place used to be a Carne Asada grill. They had the best Carne Asada you could imagine with a lot of fat on the meat. Now it’s a burrito place, which is still very good! I am wondering, what happened to the old owner? Is it the same ownership?“

“We really enjoyed our meal at Chaia. The nachos were definitely the standout. My kids got small quesadillas and we tried a mushroom taco too which was great, but the nachos with all of the toppings were such a treat. Would love to come back! Updated from previous review on 2025-12-30“

“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.“

“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.“

“Highly recommend,… great food and fun atmosphere.“

“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.“

“Great place to hang out with friends!“

“Love this place! Their queso is a must“

“Nice restaurant in Adams morgan, the food was prepared and brought quickly. The tacos were 4.75$, and they were simple but good. I believe the meat tacos were better than the vegan ones, especially the carnitas and chicken tacos.
The staff was amiable and responsive, it was a quite nice dinner.“

“Kinda pricey for the jerk chicken taco 🌮. one for $4.50“

“Thank you for participating in our back to school night. Everyone raved about your food and you were so easy to partner with for this event. Thank you“

“😍Love Love Fish Taco Wildwood! Miss you! Hurry back!“

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

“I enjoyed 3 tacos al pastor. I like that the taco meat wasnt spicy in itself and was given a side of hot as an option. I think a menu price would be great.. small limited menu I dont think they offer drinks (there’s a 7 eleven right up the street) but overall pretty good no frills spot & will definitely go again next time I am in that area“

“Open late and everything tasted so fresh and authentic! We were looking for something to eat late on a Sunday night and a friend recommended Picamas since they lived nearby. I ordered the chicken burrito and it was so good. The tortilla was really soft and the chicken was so flavorful and went really well with the rice and veggies in the burrito. The owner was so friendly and they really made an effort to prepare our meal for us. Overall great food and we’ll definitely be coming back!“

“All but one taco is spicy. They're relying on the hot sauce to make food taste good. The staff wasn't very friendly. The location is convenient. I wouldn't go back since the menu is too limited for me. I have tried most things on the menu and they were fine. But really, please offer more items that aren't spicy.“

“The Tacos and clam chowder was really good. The frozen Rose’ was good as well. Great service“

“great food good service“

“los mejores tacos de la región 😋👌🏻, altamente recomendadisimo“

“Wings are really really solid! Nothing super special but nothing negative to say. Just some really solid ole fashioned buffalo wings and fries well fried and good sauce. Also another review mentioned they received no ranch or ketchup but I did receive both. Wings and fries are 5x better than the more expensive ones right across the street at Wonder“

“Our first visit. Won’t be our last. Good to have this restaurant in our neighborhood. Rice and beans could have been warmer. Music just a tad loud. Difficult to have a conversation. Still will go back. Mushroom and Pork Belly tacos were delish.“

“Great food, nice atmosphere.“

“First time eating here had delivered for lunch baby bang taco was so good . Salsa and chips- the chips were so fresh salsa soooo good I will order again .“

“I spent a couple hours here because my flight was delayed. The staff was very friendly and helpful. My Cosmos were perfectly pink. (If they’re clear and red they’re not made correctly) and only $6 during Happy Hour. I’m not a big fan of Mexican food, Cosmos I ordered the Bora Bora marinated chicken without the tortilla over rice. It was delicious! The chicken was so tender and tasty and all the flavors were wonderful. I also enjoyed watching the surfers on TV,. The waves relaxed me instead being stressed out over a delayed flight. Definitely recommend this place for its casual atmosphere and good food. Even if you don’t like Mexican!“

“Ordered Mexican chicken tacos; the food came promptly, the food tasted excellent! Shelly the server was the nicest, she spoke in a very polite manner & at the end of my meal, she asked how I liked it - my response was the food tastes excellent! The cook in the back with the apron and hair net had the lousiest of attitudes, seemed like a grouch - if you’re reading this, lighten up, life is to too short to be disgusted with everything! Thanks Shelley! •ValT“

“Amazing food and great people. Only caution I have is that you might end up getting addicted and eating here multiple times a week!“

“Bandit Taco is a hidden gem that delivers on every level. The service is friendly, welcoming, and efficient, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in. The menu is unique and flavorful, with a great variety of options that feel fresh and thoughtfully crafted. Every dish is satisfying and well balanced, making it hard to choose just one favorite. The ambience is relaxed and inviting, and the charming little aesthetic adds so much personality to the space. Bandit Taco is the kind of spot you’ll want to come back to again and again.“

“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.“

“Great staff, great owners, great food! Hands down, this will be our go to spot! Their food prices are fair, and the happy hr prices are the best in the DMV as well! A friend an I went to this location for the first time, and we loved it. Definitely recommend!“

“These guys are great. They work hard there very fair price on mechanical repairs and everything. All the gas pumps are working really well and it's well lit at night really safe and the little inside store has tons of drinks and it's really tidy and well-stocked and everyone is really friendly and they work hard and please give them your business we want to encourage good honest businesses to thrive. They also sell lottery tickets & Munchies and they sell Blue rhino propane. And they have a large tank propane filling station as well. They also do your Maryland State inspection. Very honest totally reasonably priced.“

“Amazing tacos! Jesus is so happy and friendly! It seems he finds pure joy in making and serving these excellent tacos. Highly recommend. Bring cash and your appetite and you won't be disappointed. The lengua is so tender, pork is delicious....they are all great!“

“This was my second time here, and I am even more impressed this time! The service is very friendly and they cook everything to order so it's nice and fresh. The birria queso tacos are some of the best I have ever had (the consume is so good I literally sip on whatever is leftover!) And the lengua...omg the lengua! Tender, bursting with flavor, def some of the best I have ever had! The salsa Roja has good flavor and a nice kick to it (on the level of Diablo Sauce from Taco Bell). I overheard them say business is slow because of the weather, so do yourselves and them a favor and show them some love! They accept cash and cards, and there isn't any online ordering but you can call in your order.“

“This place is amazing and the owner is awesome! 10/10 on the food.“

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

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

“Carne asada tacos were great. Ribeye tacos 🌮 were bomb“

“Tacos. Están rikos. Y la tortas. Apenas el primer día. K llego después probaré lo demás 🤠“

“this was the BEST pho I’ve ever had!! I got their Banh Mirria Sandwich, and it was the most delicious thing i ate all week. The bread was soft and fresh, the beef and cheese were scrumptious. Highly recommend! I’ll be following them around the US for the rest of my life“

“Last night was my husband’s and my first time dining here, and it truly left an impression. One of the first things we loved was the restaurant’s commitment to giving back to the community. As soon as you walk in, there’s a sign explaining how meals are donated to local women’s shelters and how guests and staff can pay it forward by purchasing meals for those in need. Anyone facing a tough time can simply take a ticket from the wall for a prepaid meal such a thoughtful and meaningful concept.

Our server was absolutely phenomenal (I wish I remembered her name! -- She had long red wavy hair). She took the time to walk us through the menu, shared her personal favorites, and recommended several must-try tacos. Let me just say… she did not miss!

Every single bite was bursting with flavor. We tried the birria, Havana, Rus & Gus, and Peruvian chicken tacos, along with the street corn salad and veggies on the side and everything was incredible. From the food to the service to the heart behind the restaurant, this place checks all the boxes.

Safe to say we’ve found a new favorite spot and will absolutely be back.“

“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.“

“By far a favorite lunch spot among the Jubilee Jobs staff!!“

“A well kept secret in the city. It is a restaurant without much pretension, which offers good quality Mexican food with careful service. The space is small, so it is ideal to go as a couple or in small groups. The price-quality ratio is good.“

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

“BRING BACK QUESADILLA MARINA! That’s was the best quesadilla ever!!!“
