    Mango wings
    Tamara S.

    Our waiter was great! We came in at lunch time on Friday I was excited because I saw they have a great happy hour on Fridays. This was my 1st visit. I had the burrito which was okay. Tasted like it had chocolate in the bean sauce, wasn't a fan but it was okay. We ordered nachos for the table, I really enjoyed them. I will definitely be back for happy hour.

    Chicken tortilla soup
    Nohemy C.

    After a long day of traveling from CA, we were hungry and ready for dinner. Just steps from our hotel in Navy Yard next to the Nationals stadium is this super cute and bumpin' place with exceptional service. I ordered the chicken tortilla soup and yuce fries with an Atlas Pilsner (local brewery). The soup was super flavorful and hearty with a lot of chicken. I was surprised how large of a bowl it was. My spouse ordered the birria tacos and he thought they were above average (we come from East San Jose, where birria is everywhere). My kid loved the mashed black beans and rice. Highly recommend for happy hour for sweet deals and their Taco Tuesday special. It has romantic party vibes with great music and ambience lighting. It is great for groups or date night.

    Mango Habanero Wings
    Kelci M.

    The establishment is always clean and staff is friendly. The food is consistently average: never horrible yet never memorable. Here's what I got: Jalapeño Margarita: 10/10. The best in town! Happy Hour Nachos: 6/10. The tortilla chips are crispy and the flavor is delicious however, the nachos lacked toppings and needed more real cheese on them. How can you beat $8 though?! Mango Habenero Wings: 6/10. The wings were tasty but I probably wouldn't order them again. The avocado dipping sauce is sour and weird. If you want wings, go to Bonchon a block away.

    Always solid. Margaritas are on point and service is great! A weeknight go-to. Casual but still nice and steps to the ballpark!

    3 taco platter. $12 happy hour. Fish, shrimp, carne asada. Fish was dry. Carne.was the best. Shrimp was good

    Came for a bday celebration on a Tuesday evening. Even without the bday party, the place was pretty full Happy hour menu is a few dollars of drinks and some food I have the $12 trio of tacos. I opted for Fish (just okay, I wouldn't reoder), Shrimp was the best! and Steak came a close 2nd Had the Azul drink. Refreshing!!! Not too overpowering with the coconut Place shares a bathroom with CIRCA. You'll see how the restaurant seems to change :) Very accessible from either exits for Navy Yard.

    Carne asada quesadilla and Al pastor tacos
    Eli C.

    Smoky al pastor tacos were good but the carne asada quesadilla (not technically on the menu but they told us it was ok and even recommended it) was amazing. Lots of mosquitos on the patio. Friendly servers!

    Al pastor
    Kyle V.

    Fantastic Mexican restaurant! They had a salmon taco special and the flavor was incredible. Smokey flavor with a nice crisp slaw. The atmosphere was modern and the staff was very friendly. The classic marg was spot on with a heavier hand on the tequila. I wouldn't definitely come back.

    Carne Asada
    Andrew R.

    We had dinner here after a baseball game. The carne asada was killer good! The service was great, but it was too loud in there for me.

    Taquitos gordos
    Sarah C.

    Came here before a concert at the Nationals Park stadium. Very nice, attentive staff. My sister got the enchiladas and said they were delicious. I had the taquitos gordos appetizer, and it was just OK. I personally wasn't a huge fan of the amount of cilantro and scallions inside the taquitos. It was a little overkill. All in all, I would come here again and try something different. They have pretty good happy hour specials - $3 chips and salasa, $10 quesadillas, and $2 off house margaritas.

    Happy Hour Food Menu
    Miranda J.

    Stopped into El Bebe for happy hour and was not disappointed. I ordered the nachos and they were delicious. The chicken was seasoned to perfection, the guacamole was fresh, and every bite just worked. Easily one of the best nacho plates I have had in a while. The ambiance sealed the deal for me. I really liked the dim lighting. It gave the space a cozy but still energetic vibe that made hanging out over food and drinks feel even better. My friend ordered a ginger beer and shared some with us. Hands down the best ginger beer I have tasted in a long time. Refreshing with just the right amount of kick. Great spot for happy hour if you want good food, solid drinks, and a lively vibe. I will definitely be back.

    Crispy Shrimp
    Jessica U.

    Honestly this place was great. We sat at the bar during happy hour (3-7) and the bartender was great. We got the passion fruit margaritas (added spice) and it was delicious. For food I got the crispy shrimp but grilled. 10/10 highly recommend. Chips and queso was also really good. I will definitely be back.

    Steak quesadilla and passion fruit margarita

    Their quesadillas are always delicious. The margarita was also perfectly made. Good food, good service.

    Got takeouts at this place and the food is a 10/10. Very happy and would definitely get more food here again.

    Do they offer a menu showing what is vegetarian, gluten free, etc.?

    Is this restaurant kid friendly?

    I'd say so. It is more of a bar setup with young adults, but there are booths and could accommodate kids. Kid friendly, yes, kid centered, probably not.

The hostess greeted me and asked if I'd ever been to the restaurant before. She directed me to the back counter where I was able to review the menu and place my order. The server at this register was also very nice. I liked the texture of the rice bowls and everything was cooked well. However, the portions for everything were smaller than I expected for the price. Bartaco offers items with mushrooms, falafel, and cauliflower. However I think it would be great if they could offer something with tofu as there is not a protein option for vegans. The chips and guacamole were decent but nothing special. Interesting that the chips come as large pieces instead of as individual chips. I'd maybe stop in again if I was nearby but I'm not sure I'm eager to return.

The prices are reasonable (for this area) as well. I also like the space. It was bright and spacious, with almost an independent coffee shop vibe. If I needed to telework, I could see myself hanging here (but eating tacos instead of sipping lattes). Put away any misconceptions about 'vegan' and try it.

However, I made an exception on this trip because Santa Rosa Taqueria is a restaurant by Spike Mendelsohn, who competed on Top Chef many years ago. As a fan, I try to visit Top Chef-affiliated restaurants whenever possible. We ordered loaded shrimp nachos, an asada steak taco on a flour tortilla, and a diablo shrimp taco on a flour tortilla. We shared all three. I didn't particularly enjoy the shrimp, (it was fried) on the nachos, but everything else was delicious! Loved their green sauce and their red had a real kick. I tried one of their cranberry margaritas. O M Gee. That was the strongest margarita I have ever had. I don't really like to taste alcohol, so I only drank half and was a little tipsy when I left, but for more 'seasoned' drinkers, there's a lot of 'bang for your buck' in just one drink! I can't wait to return and sample more delicious food from the menu!

I went during lunch with a few coworkers and we were all very impressed. I kicked things off with the hibiscus margarita , which was refreshing, floral, and perfectly balanced. For food, I ordered the crispy birria tacos with consommé, and wow... flavor on flavor. The tortillas are corn-based, which is a huge win for me since I have a gluten allergy . One coworker ordered the same, while another went with the chicken tinga tacos with added avocado - everyone loved their plates. I also really like that you order and pay via QR code at the table, which makes splitting checks super easy when you're with coworkers. The only thing that feels a little odd is being prompted to tip when you don't really have traditional table service, staff simply drop off food and drinks (though the brief interactions we had were friendly and pleasant). The menu has a great variety, everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared, and while the restaurant itself is on the smaller side, it works well for a relaxed lunch. I can definitely see this place getting packed during happy hour. The restaurant vibes are chill so no need to dress up or make a reservation. Just walk in and seat yourself then scan the QR code to place your order. All in all, a great spot for tasty tacos, fun cocktails, and a quick but satisfying lunch break. I'll absolutely be back!
