Great spot - from the moment you walk in the door. Their tacos are amazing.

Cocktails are great and so is the service. The tacos were bad, which is a hard thing to do. Fish tacos were mostly breading and they were soaked in sauce, pastor tacos looked like chorizo, and were greasy. Guac and chips were pretty good.

Went there for a dinner with my dad - he is a flavor snob. Immediately, the service stuck out. Our waiter was on us, telling us the house favorites and getting us ready for their margaritas. The margaritas were okay, probably the last thing to write home about. Also thought they were a little pricey, but thats all drinks in DC. We started with queso fundido; a queso-string-cheese hybrid topped with jalapeos, onions, and tomatoes. Was fantastic and paired amazing with their corn tortillas. For dinner, we tried the fish, chicken, and brisket tacos and ordered their birria taco-quesadilla (apparently also a house fav). All of the tacos were great; chicken and brisket were super tender, fish taco was juicy with sweet crema nodes. The birria taco-quesadilla was definitely more of just a quesadilla, I think it was the best meat on the table (my dad would disagree). Great vibes, trendy decor, has that small taqueria feel. If youre looking for something boujee, not the place; if you want somewhere upbeat, affordable, and intimate, it is the place.
