34 Best Taco Restaurants in Washington

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

“Cute atmosphere, good food and drinks.“

“Excellent mole- will definitely be back for it. Had the birria tacos which were perfect, fried and crunchy but not greasy- which is incredible given the generous amount of meat and Oaxaca cheese in the tacos. The service was very attentive and kind.“

“The food was fantastic. I had the tacos and the hibiscus margaritas. The service was great too!“

“The food is pretty enjoyable. Reasonable prices for DC. Staff is really nice and friendly. I come here about once a month and it's a spot where I will happily take friends who are visiting. It's a cool vibe outside, I would recommend expecting to wait in line on a weekend night.“

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

“All vegetarian and/or vegan tacos and gluten-free for my wife... I can say that I was skeptical about this place for sure. However, the tacos won me over. The three taco deal is almost too much good food and between my wife and I, we tried all the tacos on the menu. Everyone probably raves about the creamy kale and potato taco, and it was certainly good, but the Moroccan carrot taco was the closest winner for us. I would rank the next three after the carrot as the kale-potato, the garlic greens (lots of collards in this one and very good!), then the mushroom one. Got a coffee, too, and it was pretty good as they brew Vigilante there. Definitely didn't hurt that it was beautiful fall day today, so we ate outside by the river rather than staying in the very small restaurant itself. Price was eleven bucks for three tacos, but I'd've been happy with two. Three would be good if you're hungry, but for a regular meal, two was plenty. Def check this place out.UPDATE APRIL 2024:Tacos are still excellent, though the veganism is no longer mandatory, so there are more options. The carrot one I loved before was not available, but that could just be for today as I'm sure the menu changes seasonally, if not more frequently. This time I had the usual kale/potato, a mushroom taco, and the cabbage taco. The kale potato was the clear winner this time, primarily because the salsa on it is so good. The mushroom was next best and finally the cabbage. I think the cabbage just needed a bit of texture. It was just some green cabbage that was braised, so believe the addition of some crunchy, raw red cabbage would have put it over the top, but to each their own. Still an excellent vegetarian/vegan lunch and with reasonable prices given the locale, so still worth a visit.“

“SERVICE: Our server was friendly and helpful in answering our questions and providing recommendations from the menu based on our preferences. Very professional and she was always around when we needed anything.FOOD: If you like chicken nachos you should try these. They put the right amount of cheese, chicken, jalapenos, guac, every ingredient pairs perfectly. I had the chicken enchilada and my husband the chicken tacos. The plates are smaller in size than expected but still delicious and filling..ATMOSPHERE: The ambience of the restaurant is very inviting and comfortable. The indoor dining area is to the left when you walk in, the bar in the middle and outdoor seating. Very nice.Overall we will visit this establishment again!“

“Been dying to try this place for a while. Loved the atmosphere. Staff was nice. Markus was a whole vibe! He had me & my gf cracking up. The Baja fish, glazed pork, & chicken tacos are my fav. We will def be back and this time it’ll be early enough to grab seats at the bar!“

“Awesome place!!! Great food and wonderful staff☘️☘️☘️“

“Ricos takos muy buena atención“

“The tacos here, a silent gold, steep in price,Yet in their flavors, they roll the dice.Greatness in each bite, a culinary flood,But the cost whispers too loud, thuds in the bud.Four stars they earn, not without strife,For the bill that comes, sharpens like a knife.A feast for the palate, yet the wallet's tight,In this dance of taste and cost, a nuanced fight.“

“Went for Valentine’s Day. They had an excellent pre fixe menu. Everything was very good.“

“We loved this place!!! Chose HiFi based on the Yelp reviews and realized when we arrived that this is actually a food hall type venue called The Roost. I'll be reviewing the whole place. The ambiance is incredible, and the way it flows is ingenious. You sit down, scan a QR code with your phone, and are able to order from any of the multiple eateries in the space. Place your order online and then waitstaff brings your order over from any/all of the restaurants. Honestly, I ordered from multiple spots- HiFi, the bar, the sushi spot- and all of our food was absolutely phenomenal. I will be back for sure the next time we're visiting DC!“

“great food and service! tacos are outstanding and the tex mex egg roll are definitely a must buy!“

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

“Local and authentic Pupusería. $6 for 2. Fresh and made to order, lots of options but I went with just bean and cheese and cheese. Service was friendly and fast. The restaurant is small on the inside but there's a pretty large outdoor covered patio. Definitely recommend and would be interested in their other offerings.“

“Takorean was given a high endorsement from an associate of mine to try while in Washington DC. They were not wrong.Cleanliness. 4.5 of 5. The restaurant was well maintained and appeared very clean.Service: 3.5 of 5. Staff was professional but not talkative to the customers. A little more interaction would have been nice for a first trial run.Food quantity 5 of 5. I ordered the slaw bowl that had romaine slaw with some kimchi slaw. For the meat I had chicken. Additions were tomatoes, pickled daikon radish, and cilantro. A lot of food, left the restaurant full.Food quality 5 of 5. Every bite was full of flavor and pleasant. The aroma of the food matched the taste. Though late in the day when I solicited the restaurant, the food was still fresh, delicious, and delightful.Price: $$ 15-20 per person would be reasonable, I didn’t chose a lot of options that could increase one’s bill.Overall I would give this restaurant a 4.5 of 5“

“Excelente lugar para disfrutar de unos deliciosos tacos son verdaderamente deliciosos“

“Great place great atmosphere and excellent food“

“The food is excellent. Anything you get is really good and fresh. I tried the burrito chicken Tinga and it was absolutely delicious. The chicken is very nice and moist. The burrito is pretty big. Chips and guacamole is also very good. Definitely recommended.“

“Loving the quesadillas, guacamole and tacos so far. The crispy shrimp tacos were my fav.“

“Really enjoyed my tacos, which were delicious and stuffed full. Typical Warf high prices, but shockingly a big bottle of water was only $2. Sides seem particularly overpriced. Food was ready quickly and staff was very friendly. They have beer and cocktails too.“

“Heads up-- this is inside of the 7/11. The tortillas are amazing and they make them on the spot!! Worth the 5 min wait. They also have tamales! Super affordable and delicious. There is a small sitting area inside the 7/11 but you can also take it to go.Vegetarian options: Egg based options, beans and rice“

“This place is the bomb! We were walking around, looking for a late night bite and stumbled upon this absolute gem. The chicken was succulent and flavorful. The sopa was so warm and comforting. Prices are reasonable and serving sizes are healthy. Definitely stop by!“

“We stopped at this place on a walk through the neighborhood. They have a taco Tuesday deal- $2.50 a taco! They also have a happy hour every weekday from 4 to close. The tacos are stuffed! You can take the margaritas to go. We sat outside to eat. Definitely recommend!“
