Went for dinner on a Saturday evening. It was pretty late, like 8:30pm. I called and they said they were still serving food so I went ahead in. The restaurant was pretty empty and when I asked the hostess she said it was Fourth of July weekend and people were out of town. I chose to sit outside because it was a really cool and not humid evening. No one else was outside which I found strange since it seemed like the A/C was broken inside. I placed my order and asked if chips and salsa were complimentary. My server said no, but I was pleasantly surprised when she brought some out to me. I guess since they were so close to closing they decided to treat me. And I'm glad they did because the chips were fire! Just the right amount of salt. For my entree I had the steak and shrimp fajitas. So good! I was full but not overly stuffed. It was all delicious.
Vibrant Tex-Mex restaurant (reasonably priced) with delicious Salsa, Veggie Fajitas, Passion Fruit Margaritas! It's similar to Guapos and Uncle Julio's and better/cheaper than Mi Vida and Ometeo up the road in Tyson's. Hubby and I really dug into the cilantro Verde Salsa with a spicy kick served with salty tortilla chips. It's nice to have the option for a cup or bowl of Guac or Salsa. Surprisingly, I enjoyed the Salsa more than the Guacamole. Note the refill of chips is free (but not the salsa/guac). The Guac and Queso are a bit pricey. The sizzling Veggie Fajitas hit the spot with grilled mushrooms, peppers, and onions served with 4 flour tortillas and the typical fixings - black beans, Mexican rice, chihuahua cheese, sour cream, salsa, and guac. It would have been nice to have the option of corn tortillas. The Eggplant Milanese Torta sandwich (served only during the lunch menu) was okay. While the fried eggplant cutlet was crispy stuffed inside fluffy Ciabatta bread, the sandwich was quite dry. The cabbage, pickled onion, and cotija cheese didn't pair that well with the eggplant and failed to elevate the flavor. I spread some guacamole on the sandwich and tasted so much better! The Kids Meal is great and our son enjoyed the cheese quesadilla. The 4 Yucca Fries were fun to try, they were quite dense and very filling. I would save my appetite for the main course! The Churro dessert isn't like a traditional long, thick pipe shaped dessert. It's served like fries made of dough and cinnamon sugar. It tastes like funnel cake. While the Passion Fruit Margarita was refreshing it tasted identical to the Classic Margarita. While the waitress reassured us that we were served different cocktails, they tasted the same. While the Brisa Del Sol cocktail looked beautiful and fruity, it didn't taste as good as it looks. It was a bit sour and boozy, and wish it was more balanced. Will be back to score happy hour deals on the salsa and margaritas (Mon - Fri 4-7pm)!
This spot is good, again, not going to say it's in my top 5 Tex Mex spots within the DMV, but overall there's not a ton of menu items, which means they can do really well on a small selection of items. The enchiladas here are pretty good as well as the tortas. Honestly the pancito for the tortas are a little too fancy to my liking, let me just get that bolillo with frijoles, aguacate, carne, salsa and queso. But the tortas are good.
I've been here a couple times Food (5/5): happy hour pricing is at the table! Woo Hoo! Specials on drinks and food! Service: (5/5): Awesome server. Ambiance (4/5): It was busy on a Tuesday night for dinner. Also, at 3pm on a Saturday it was nice. Annoying rap music gets a star deducted.
Came here with a few friends for the happy hour. Pretty good deals for food and drink. The margaritas were really good. Their quesadilla was OK but the tacos are delicious. Also, the service was actually everyone was very friendly.
This place was okay - it fits the bill for what it is, a post work happy hour and corporate gathering spot. The restaurant itself is pretty cute, with an okay amount of seating and patio space. It's pretty loud inside when it's busy. The food is not bad, but pricey if not on happy hour, the shrimp tacos being the best. The drinks are just okay. The service is great though.
3.5 stars. We came in with a lot of worry that this would be one of those places that try to "elevate" Tex-Mex comfort food by smaller portions and higher prices. In the non-authentic category, I am allergic to those establishments, unless there is some entertainment value/unusually good location that I can justify the price tag for. El Bebe is right in the middle. Loved the corn dip and the carne asada taco. My fried fish in the taco was super dry. Nothing else left an impression. Service was friendly and the place was cute. But I can get much better tacos at Taco Bamba, or a very similar experience at Guapos/Uncle Julio's. Needs a distinguisher to be someone's go-to.
Service: decent because it was not busy and i expected a bit more attention from the staff there. Food: HH specials was good. I had the shrimp and chicken tinga tacos. The shrimp tacos was sooooooo good. Ambiance: nice and clean Soooo last minute choice to come here or Circa. I got 7 other ladies to come and it was a good location with decent parking. Good was ok, service good....would i come back? Not sure. There are so MANY restaurants in Tysons that I'm like - what makes you feel u stand out? I came there for HH 4-7pm but will I be back? HMMMMMM
El Bebe is a great restaurant to try, especially if you are looking for a change up to your go to Mexican food spot. The menu has many good options. I tried the "Mexican Street Corn Dip", the "Chicken Tortilla Soup" and the "Sizzling' Chicken Fajitas". I enjoyed each of these dishes but if I had to recommend one, I think everyone should try the "Mexican Street Corn Dip". Other than the food the staff were kind, and the restaurants atmosphere was relaxing and enjoyable. I recommend stopping by El Bebe if you are in the area or you are looking for a good Mexican restaurant.
I've recently tried their vegetarian burrito, and am addicted. It's one of the best burritos I've had. It's filled with beans, rice, mushrooms, and topped with this amazing sauce. It's so good that I've been going to El Bebe weekly to just eat this. It's way better than the bowl. Definitely give it a try. Amazing food. Amazing ambiance. Service can be better, but the management is nice.
We came here on the way to our original destination (Circa at the Boro) as the happy hour specials looked pretty good. The staff at the front were nice and directed us to the bar area. Unfortunately, that's where the customer service fell short. The bartender gave uninterested unfriendly vibes. The music was also really loud in such a small area. Since we already sat down, we decided to order a drink and a taco. We ordered a sangria and a beer. The beer was fine, but the sangria was lacking flavor and maybe even alcohol. Would I return? most likely not. read more

Food: 3.5/5 Pricing: 2/5 Service: 2/5 Location: 3/5 I've came here a few times thanks to some gift cards but if it wasn't for that I would not come back. Portion sizes are very small and prices are very high. I've tried their chicken, shrimp, and carne asada fajitas. Flavor of the meat was good but man are the portion sizes crazy small. The size rice, beans, guac, cheese, tomatoes was so little. You also only get 4 small sized tortillas. Also tried their tacos. Hard pass. Again very small portions and the flavors were very muted. The meats were also overcooked when I had them. I had carne asada, carnitas (pork), and chicken. The highlight is probably just their chips, which are free when you eat in but cost $3 if you order them to go. Service is hit or miss. At the bar you will likely get ignored when you first walk in. They have a separate fajita menu that sometimes the server will not give you for some reason and I had to ask for it. Then depending on the server they could either be checking on you too much or completely ignoring you that you have to wave to flag them down. It took literally 20 min just for someone to close out my check. This is located in the Boro so you do get free 2 hour parking in the garage without validation on weekends and after certain hours on weekdays. So expect some foot travel time from your parking spot to the restaurant. If you want good tex-mex with decent size, go to Rango's, which is less than 2 miles away. read more

This place is bad. The food is mediocre and the service is plain terrible. 1. Reservation: don't need. They are wide open and always empty 2. Service: 1 star. I don't know what prompted the guy to be so mean, he was just rude. Looked me up and down, sized me up and even asked if we normally order drinks with our meal or just eat. I was ready to storm out. It was late and didn't feel like looking for a different place so we stayed. Looking back, should have left as right next door is Circa, which is 1000 times better. 3. Food: 3 star Fajitas were okay, nothing special than what you can get anywhere else. but here it is more expensive, so i expected better. Guacamole - okay, I can definitely make better 4. Interior: nice and wide, spacious and well lit. I won't be coming here again unless the servers changed. read more

Atmosphere was chill for lunch time. Barely anyone here. Music was a vibe. Parking is across the street and you must pay. Chips and salsa was great. Their chips had seasoning on it and could stand alone. They have three different types of salsa. I didn't want any spice today so I did the pico de gallo which was great. For drink, I got a passion fruit mojito and it was delicious. For food, I got the taco combo which came with yellow rice and beans. I didn't realize the beans and rice came together but was great! My tacos were the carnitas, fried fish, and chicken tinga. The tinga was the best. The fish was nothing to write home about. And the carnitas was standard. They didn't have anymore churros so that was disappointing. Service was great. I was immediately taken to a table when I arrived. I will definitely be back. read more

This place is AWESOME in every level! I tried corn dip, chicken fajitas, and enchiladas. I definitely recommend corn dip for flavor and chicken fajitas for the experience. Don't get me wrong! Chicken fajitas was also flavorful, and I just loved how it came out in a metal plate and smoke and chiseling Every single food we tried at this place impressed us on every bite. Service was also GREAT! My main dishes actually came out really late, long after we finished appetizer, but the manager was really nice and responded to our concern immediately and make sure you are having a great experience, and we were just deeply touched by his genuine thoughtful gestures. I also loved decorations of this place. It is modern&young. I would definitely come back for FOOOOOD. For the PARKING, make sure you use the garage in the same building for parking validation. If you park in other garages in Boro, validation wouldn't work! read more

El bebe was some of the best food and service I've had in this town. Especially since we came about an hour before closing with no reservation I was really impressed with the service and quality of the food! Even 2 mins before closing we still were able to grab another drink. They didn't rush us or tell us they were closing, they let everyone who was there chat, finish eating and enjoy. A young lady who took our order today was being trained and had someone helping her which is fabulous! I hate when they send newbies out to the wolves. The establishment was clean including the restrooms! We sat outside and loved it looking at the night sky with plenty of space between guests. My bf doesn't eat meat so we ordered the barria tacos without meat and they did exactly as asked! A lot of places don't listen or forgot so we were very glad! The margarita was tasty, the elote dip, guacamole, and cheese quesadilla were also amazing! We definitely will be back 10/10 :) read more

Nachos: Picture this. I have been challenged to a duel by the antichrist at Armageddon. My kingdom is on the line. The fate of my bloodline, my future offspring and their offspring. My pretend husband is away on a mission to secure a sale at the latest HIMSS conference. I, nachogirl1, a brave warrior standing against the enemy. The darkness which threatens our light. With all the strength and hope I salvaged from my 3 months at Orangetheory Fitness before quitting, I firmly pick up my sword, ready for battle. Until, the veiled enemy yells "behold! a plate of nachos from Él bebe, in exchange for your kingdom and the demise of your bloodline". Silence fills the air. Betrayal becomes an illusion. Eternal life becomes the wish of a fool. I lay down my sword.. and I bow down to the ruler of our new kingdom. I have failed and succumbed to the new order. For this plate of nachos is worth, life. All else: nice ambiance. great customer service. shrimp tacos were excellent too. read more
I was able to make last minute reservations at El Bebe on a Saturday night. The ambiance and decor are great and the server was very attentive. We ordered the nachos to start and they were the best part of the meal. Chicken tinga pairs well with Mexican and I highly recommend it. I got the birria tacos which were good but definitely not the best in the DMV. My husband got the spiced ground beef enchiladas and while they were not kidding about it being spicy, my husband really liked it. I'll definitely be back to try the fajitas or other chicken tinga entrees! read more
