The employees are patient and professional.I pretty much always order the same thing, mixed fajitas with rice and black beans. The place is clean however the parking lot still sucks but it's better than the old building they had across the street. The food here tastes better than a lot of sit down Mexican restaurants and it's more reasonable. They do have indoor seating if you want to done in. I would recommend calling in your order for faster service, as they do tend to be busy most of the day. I'm not sure if this is a female owned establishment but I only see all women working at this location. They do have an app now - which they didn't before. Remember to order through the app because you can't gain point or rewards using your receipt after a purchase. It seems as if you can only get rewarded for your purchases if you pls e your order through the app.

After reading the reviews I understand why there are so many negatives about the service. My order…read morewas taken right away and I was told 10 minutes. After 30 minutes later I had to go up to the register and ask the gal that took my order if it was ready. I think she might've been new cause she really didn't know what she was doing. She looked around and read back to me a ticket which was what I ordered. Nobody was calling out order numbers or anything?! Now, if I had not approached the registers and asked about my meal how long would I have had to stand there before someone noticed? I might've been there all day cause no one even acknowledged me at any point in time if those 30 minutes I sat there. The food was very mediocre. Don't waste your money here. Take that drive to a different tex mex place.

Years ago, behind U Street Music Hall (RIP), there used to be a taco spot in a row home called El…read moreChilango. It used to be the spot for me and my friends to grab a quick bite and everything about it was exceptional: who can say no to super affordable yet authentic street tacos served on paper plates. Sadly, it closed. Last night, I think I stumbled across a taco spot to finally take the wheel from our dearly missed El Chilango. Taqueria Al Lado is very no frills and a tiny spot, but it has tacos that make your heart sing. My friend recommended the Al Pastor so I got that with a chicken taco as well. Both were super flavorful, fatty, but really fresh and well balanced. The key here is simplicity and they do it perfectly. Each taco was about $4 or $5 if I remember correctly, so it's a great spot to grab food if you're trying to ball on a budget. We got the guac, too, which was good but not life changing; the fresh chips, however, were spot on. As far as service goes, we went on a Friday and it was super busy, but there were plenty of servers if we needed something (just had to be vocal). I will definitely be coming back!

I picked a spot and was quickly approached by one of the several servers to place my order. I ordered two tacos, rice, and a beer. The food came within ten minutes and was hot. The vegan birria taco was delicious. It was a mishmash of veggies and tasted amazing. The fish taco was good, but the vegan option was my favorite. I had hoped the rice would be seasoned, but it was just white rice. The overall restaurant vibe was very fun with loud music. It was crowded but there were still several tables available. Checkout process was easy as well. A happy little find I will be sure to come back to.

Even their chips are not run of the mill; seasoned with some sort of light paprika blend. Great choices of salsa a can't miss queso and fresh guac. Their happy hour is lively with great food and drink specials. If Tacos are your things the Tuesday Happy Hour is when they change it up for Taco Tuesday. Drinks are fun and on the stronger end. The major thing I appreciate here is they are able to tell me what is vegetarian friendly and not. The BEST part is they are willing to make substitutions and charge me less than the meat offerings.

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.
