Just love the food in this restaurant. I went with my family and friends. We had excellent service,…read moreattentive and friendly staff, who were well-experienced. The atmosphere was lively and relaxing. We started with appetizers, which included Chicken Nachos, Corn Ribs, and Mussels a la Diabla. For drinks, we had beer, house lemonade, and coffee. In the entree, we had Chicken and Steak Fajitas, Acapulco Salmon, Shrimp and Crab Enchilada. The flavors in each dish we ordered were amazing and perfectly balanced, and the ingredients tasted incredibly fresh. In between our meals, the manager and the chef came to ask about the food's experience. For dessert, we ordered Cheesecake and Pina Colada Tres Leches. While I am writing, I still can feel the taste in my mouth, it was so yummy. I will definitely recommend it to my friends and family.

This place was just a block from our hotel in Arlington, so we went to check it out!…read more The place was upstairs, and it was small, but pretty (also filled with Cherry Blossoms decor)....with these big, open windows with a great view. Sadly, it was SO sunny that the booths by the window was too hot and bright, so we decided to sit away from it. If only we came for dinner when the sun wasn't so bright? So that was a bummer. I'll also mention that when we stopped in (early Saturday), the place was all but empty, but the host would not let us sit at these plushy booths (for 4 or more people), saying that there were reservations. However, these booths stayed empty the whole time we were there...and as we left! That sorta ticked us off. Another thing that ticked me off was that there was this item on the menu that wasn't available. As it was, their brunch menu was really small. BTW, we had the option to go with their AYCE Brunch or a la carte...we chose to do the latter. I resorted to ordering Shrimp Gobernador, and my husband got Huevo Ranchero. The Huevo Ranchero looked really good...and my husband seemed to really enjoy it. My Shrimp Gobernador was OK at best. It was a lot like Shrimp Tacos, but the ingredients inside was smothered and a bit greasy. Not my cup of tea. For the price point, I thought my shrimp dish was really underwhelming. Also, the service was SLOW. It took forever to get our drinks...and we were the only diners in there for awhile! Overall, I felt that the foods were overpriced for what they were. Ambiance was pretty, but we weren't able to even sit by the window because of the glaring sun...and the service was mediocre at best. I just thought it was an OK brunch...but am glad my husband enjoyed his favorite Mexican breakfast!

Love Mexican and TexMex, heard good things about this place, and so perhaps my expectations were a…read morelittle high. I got the golden chimichanga fried and it was quite delicious, however, I wish I had gotten the chorizo. I'm not really a steak person, but the chimichanga as a whole was delicious. The rice was ..not expected. More bland than what I am used to. I also had the salsa con queso with chorizo, which was also delicious, maybe the best tasting of it all. The Mexican cokes were great so I was delighted to see that available. Service was great no concerns at all. As far as Mexican restaurants go it was good. I can't give it five stars however because I didn't really feel like the food stood out; wish I could do 4.5. It was very typical Mexican, but it wasn't amazing, the same way more traditional Mexican preparation would. All that said it's a nice restaurant.

On the recommendation of a friend, my wife and I stopped here for a quick pre-dinner snack…read more Frankly, neither one of us was impressed. First, the food was lackluster. The queso dip was fine, but the salsa was watery and lacked flavor. My wife ordered the taquitos, which were fine, but also lacked in flavor (in my opinion, the ones from Costco are better). I ordered a tamal with meat sauce, which was tasty, with a great flavor and texture from the corn and well spiced sauce (the extra sauce from which I scooped up with chips I was not going to use in the salsa). The service was also not very impressive, despite us coming at an off hour. Our waiter was a bit brusque, and seemed more interested in watching the soccer match that was on TV than receiving our order, checking on us, and giving us the check. It's a shame, really, because the interior of this restaurant is well decorated and otherwise inviting.

The guacamole tasted fresh and the chips were warm when they arrived to the table. You get three tacos with the plate as well as a side of Mexican rice and beans. Service was fast, and polite. The inside has two floors. We sat upstairs where there is an indoor bar portion and an open patio. Would recommend and would return if I'm in the mood for solid tacos.

I got there shortly after they opened up and it was pretty empty. I got a seat right by the door, and had a view of the street and watched as the restaurant began to fill up. Lots of college kids came in as the evening went on and it seemed like a popular restaurant. I thought my server was very good. He checked in regularly and had a lot of tables he was responsible for. For my meal, I started with Queso Fundido and that was probably my favorite. The cheese was really hot and very delicious. It also came with three types of salsa on the side (a salsa verde, a chili salsa, and a third one I'm not sure what it was). I did like the chili one. The flour tortillas were very hot and fresh. I enjoyed it. For my entree, I had the Achiote Hanger Steak Fajitas. This was my least favorite part of the meal. I had asked the waiter if they were good and he told me he always recommends it. I didn't mind the sides that came with it. The rice and beans were pretty good and I liked the guacamole. What I didn't like was the actual steak. It was very tough and hard to bite into. What was weird is it was completely red in the middle so I believe it was medium to medium rare, but the steak wasn't tender at all. It also wasn't very seasoned and the peppers and onions under it just seemed to be sitting in oil. I did ask for salt and pepper, but even with it, I didn't like it. I ended up not finishing the meal. Finally, I had ordered the corn cheesecake as a dessert. I now realize they sent out churros instead, but I guess I wasn't paying attention until after the fact.The churros were OK. I would have preferred more chocolate sauce on mine. I wish I would have spoken up because I was actually looking forward to trying the cheesecake. For me the food was ok, and not spectacular. I'd be willing to try out something else and come back to at least try their cheesecake, but if I never returned that'd be fine with me too.

I recently moved from Kent Island, MD to Arlington and I've slowly been checking out local food…read morespots to fill the a void I have with some places I miss back home. One such place was a Mexican place as my old fav Mexican place on Kent Island (Señors Chile) had great but extremely greasy birria tacos. So you can imagine my surprise when I stumbled upon this food truck that read "Tacos Los Primos". The spot made me curious. So I went to visit a friend who lives in walking distance from the spot for lunch recently. She ordered the veggie burrito and I ordered (pic below) Quesabirria tacos (no onion). When we got back I was WOW'd by not only how yummy my food was but how it wasn't oozing with grease! The consume that comes with for dipping is just enough for me personally and bursting with flavor. As you'd expect from most food trucks the service is made to order. When you go up to the counter and tell them what you want they make it fresh! The truck is parked on Rhoside Green Park (sandwiched between Courthouse and Rosslyn) so if you live in either neighborhood it's easy to access from walking distance. And since it's near an Arlington green space there's usually some seating nearby you can pop a squat and eat lunch. Given spring time is approaching this seems more doable. Just yesterday I was driving by to visit the same friend and saw a long line for this place! Most people in Arlington know how great this spot is, it is a terribly kept secret! Can't comment much on how long the line was busted as I went during a time when it was windy (but warm) and it was mid day. When I drove by it was pushing dinner time past 7pm. I love the food here! But since I live closer to the storefront location in Lyon Park I usually end up ordering food from there (review on that location is coming soon)! If you like authentic Mexican food that's fresh and delicious, you'll enjoy this spot!

I found free parking nearby, but it's a very crowded and mostly paid parking area. When I walked into the restaurant, I wasn't greeted too warmly by either of the hostesses. I asked if the rooftop was open, and they answered yes and directed me to the staircase past the elevator. I did try the elevator, but it wasn't working. When I got upstairs, I found out the rooftop was enclosed. Why have a rooftop at all if you can't feel the elements? There was also a foul odor I didn't want to smell while I was eating. I went back downstairs and asked if I could eat outside. They said yes and that it's bar service. The 1st floor was very picturesque with an elegant bar and flat screens throughout. The bartender was pleasant. I ordered a mango margarita, 2 beef tacos, 1 carnitas, mango habanero, and BBQ wings. The prices were pretty solid for Happy Hour. The margarita paired well with my I enjoyed the carnitas taco the best, and the mango habanero wings were great.
