Great, great, great! Will certainly be coming again. Sat outside with our dog and enjoyed frozen margs, chips and salsa, and tacos! Delicious food that just tastes FRESH. And even better drinks. Fairly priced and quick service. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. read more

Overall, this restaurant was just okay. The outdoor seating was really nice, and the guacamole was definitely the highlight of the meal. The service was friendly, but while I was waiting for the rest of my group to arrive, I was asked several times if I was ready to order, which made me feel a bit rushed. I also wasn't very impressed with the salsa--it lacked the flavor I was expecting. Overall, it was a pretty mediocre experience. Nothing was necessarily bad, but there wasn't enough to make me want to go out of my way to come back. Parking wasn't so bad, it was street parking and if anything you just have to walk one street over read more

Order one of their fantastic margaritas and the friendly and wonderful service will make sure you're never empty handed! This is your neighborhood go-to. I would be aware that the specials often do not have their prices listed and would recommend asking before getting upsold. read more

Went here to celebrate cinco de mayo, it was extremely packed. For that reason I don't take any points for the long wait (even though we had reservations) and long time it took for our drinks and food to come out. I like the ambiance and decor of the restaurant and would be interested coming back for the mariachi band. The food was good nothing too special just your typical Mexican restaurant. read more

I live in the neighborhood long time customer. My main comment is regarding the chips. They were awful. Not sure who decided the change but please go back to fresh salted chips and fresh salsa. The bathroom was also out of order 9/12 Saturday not exactly appetizing thought our table was in the back. DO BETTER OR WE WILL STAY OVER To Dos Hermanos or drive to Ranchos whose food is SUPERIOR every time I feel like driving to Tysons. It's worth the trip!! Don't get complacent because customers are precious!!!! read more

This is a fantastic Mexican play in del Rey if you're in the mood for some wonderful food. My friends and I came here after the Del Ray Popup Bar. They serve you wonderful chops and salsa with a green sauce immediately - the green sauce is quite spicy. The service was quick and easy. I got the chicken burritos and my other friends got a burrito or shrimp tacos. The ambiance is wonderful. They have a small bar area to watch tv, a wonderful patio for a nice day and plenty of indoor seating, I definitely suggest this place if you're in the mood for some wonderful food and a great atmosphere. read more

Love Los Tios! The food is always amazing, I don't think I have tried something I didn't like or that was not packed full of flavor and the prices for the quality are right on par! It's a great venue too, although I usually sit in the bar seating area (at a high top) they have a lot of seating and can accommodate large parties.. the service is generally really great although sometimes it feels like you may wait a while to be checked on (usually when it's slammed to be fair). All in all, a great place with great food and friendly people! Would recommend if you're in the area! read more

My wife and I stopped here for lunch and it was our first visit. I have the chicken fajita, she had the veggie fajita. The food was cooked perfectly and the flavors were excellent. The staff was attentive and checked in on us with regularity. The location is off the sidewalk of downtown Del Ray. It's a great place to people watch while you enjoy a great meal. The prices were great I think our total for both meals with sparkling water was $54. We will definitely come back to try more of the menu. The only downside is parking can be pretty far away as you will have to find a public lot or something on the side of the street. read more

So if you want a birthday song and have people sing to you loudly, this is 100% that place. I think for a Friday dinner, I heard 6-7 birthday songs within a few hours. Which is crazy. Food was mediocre, but good for the price. I think people can be satisfied here, but don't expect anything memorable. I got the Salvadoran Tamales which is wrapped in banana leaves. Apparently they make them in house, but where was the flavor? Spices? Sauce? Something felt missing. Anyways would not return for the food but the ambiance was so fun! Service was so professional and swift also. I appreciated the waitstaff. read more

Today is August 28 Friday 2026 me and my friend we went for lunch around 1:45 pm we always go to this restaurant twice a month sometime for dinner or sometime for lunch. It's our favorite restaurant but today when we went to the restaurant, it was not really busy one of the server female she bring us a chips and salsa, but she was so rude after the chips and salsa. We were waiting for the server to come and take an order but we were waiting almost 35 minutes and even no one come to the table to take our order. Finally, my friend went to the guy and ask him. Can you please take our order then he came to take our order we were waiting for the food more than 45 minutes, but no one bring us our food. We order some tacos. Finally, my friend again went to the guy and asked for the food. Where is our food and then he went to the kitchen and bring us the food which is we find out? The food was ready on time, but no one bring us on time on the table, and the food was almost cold because. it's been sitting in the kitchen for a long tim shame on these servers they really disrespect us. We will never go again back to this restaurant. Nobody even come back to refill our water. We even talked to the manager he apologize but sometime apologize is not the solution. Try to learn the Customer service really poor Service these guys they should not be working at the restaurant Business. I will come personally and talk to the owner because if you keep going like this and the server keep working like this I don't think so this business. read more

We went out on a beautiful night to eat in the outdoor seating. Our server was very nice. But we waited on our food for 45 minutes. No one came to apologize or explain. We had to be somewhere else and by the time our food came we had to choke it down. My steak was charred and black. Total waste of money and not even an apology from management. We will never eat here again. Which makes me sad but I'm not wasting my money. read more

There's street parking which you sometimes have to pay for but there might be a parking lot too. Just not sure. Service is great in a lively, comfortable setting. The food is even better. I tried this location partly because it's closer to my home but also for a new experience. I was not disappointed. We went there for an early lunch and to beat the crowd. Chips and salsa were great. I had the chorizo con huevos which was delicious and so much I couldn't finish it all. My wife had the mojarra frita with shrimps on top with a butter garlic sauce. She raved about it. read more

Fantastic food and experience. Second time being there, once for dinner, once for brunch, both times were fantastic.

We just got take out from here today. We ordered the beef enchiladas and beef burrito. Both were a large portion, with rice, beans, and guac with sour cream. The guac tasted very fresh. The rice and beans were seasoned appropriately and tasted great too. Both the enchiladas and the burrito were very tasty, with the beef cooked very well. They also gave us a side of chips which was nice. I would love to dine here in person in the future. I will definitely be ordering Mexican food from here in the future as well. 5/5 read more

Vegan style veggie fajitas, yummy. Staff always friendly and accommodating. Love the paintings on the walls.

Definitely a five star for food, taste, and ambience. Customer service is a 4 star rating. My waiter attempted to over charge me and he didn't even know it. I try a friendly conversation but no luck. It could be she didn't speak English too. I love the food because it brings back memories of living and eating in Texas and New Mexico. This is definitely a place to visit. read more

At Los Tios you are warmly welcomed by everyone. The chips and salsa arrive right away and are really good. I like the El Salvadoran menu items best. The papusas are excellent. I like a pork dish that has lots of onions and comes with black beans and rice. The restaurant is family oriented. read more

We were looking for a good Mexican restaurant nearby Del Ray and went here after reading several good Yelp reviews. The reviews were spot on - the food was excellent. We tried the fajitas and a pork plate. Both were flavorful, carefully prepared and they were very tasty. The meal came with chips and salsa, but we also order guacamole which was delicious. We opted for the Mexican flavors, but if you like they also have some Salvadoran dishes. Overall, if you are looking for great food at reasonable prices, great service and a family oriented ambience, this is a good choice. On the other hand, there is a complete bar service that also makes great frozen margaritas. This part of the restaurant could serve business meetings or casual dates. Toy may wish to go early for best seating and to access nearby street parking. read more

I was seated quickly, I was by myself. I ordered a chicken chimichanga and it was amazing! I didn't love the beans but the rice was great. The highlight of the experience was the small little dish of chili sauce that was a very tangy and bright flavor and HOT!!!!! As long as I cut it with a little sour cream or guac with each bite it just heightened the flavor of the chimi... but be warned, that sauce is FIERY! The Diet Coke was ice cold and delicious too! read more

The interior of this restaurant is always really loud - like really, really loud. We tend to choose the patio because we like to eat outside, but with small kids, we would struggle to dine inside given the volume. The main reason I wanted to leave a review is to note that the kids menu taco meal comes in a corn tortilla. They did not ask preference, just brought out the chicken taco in a corn tortilla, which my preschooler, of course, would not eat. Next time we'll know to ask. We have dined at a dozen Mexican restaurants with our kids and never seen a corn tortilla as the default option. Kids menu is small (burrito, enchilada, taco) but affordable - I think $7? Meal comes with small side of beans & rice. read more

Came here on a Friday night and it was popping! We started off with their complementary chips and salsa, and we ordered a small side of guac (which tasted like it was homemade!) The Tamal Del Elote tastes like a super moist and dense corn bread. It's listed under appetizers but tasted more like a dessert. I asked for the seafood burrito in a bowl, which came with lettuce, pico, homemade guac, sour cream, beans, and rice. They were many pieces of shrimp in a buttery Cajun sauce (it was a bit too heavy for me). There are two pieces of Flautas on a bed of rice beans, guac, sour cream, and pico. Overall, Los Tios Grill is a pretty standard Tex-Mex restaurant with a huge menu (which even includes a few Salvadoran and even Peruvian dishes) Everyone will be able to find what they like and be very full! read more

Los Tíos is a great little neighborhood spot and my preferred spot for Mexican on Mt. Vernon Ave. This place is usually packed with people, especially during the summer, since they have a really robust patio seating situation. The restaurant seems really small from the outside but appearances are deceiving because it is actually huge! The margaritas here are incredible, strong and if you get the big size, they are HUGE! We got the large size on accident and were a little overwhelmed by the size but the pricing is not too bad - I think these drinks were $20 and were easily three times the size of a DC margarita, which probably costs around the same price. Loved the fajitas and the pupusas, which are also gigantic! All in all a really great spot with a huge, diverse menu that has something for everyone. read more

The service gets a good deal on this review as well as the chips and salsa it's a little loud with the music but we came on a Sunday so it was good and empty not too busy but I can imagine it a full restaurant the noise and music will cancel out your conversation at your table lol now the food was eh I come from they bay and let's just say our Latin food is pretty damn good I hate giving less than 4 stars but honestly, the beans tasted canned, my meat was dry and not flavorful, my husband's chilaquiles looked reheated and were cold we were charged for the beans because the dishes don't come with them... unfortunately we were not impressed read more

The food was ok and drinks were made well. The service was not good. Now they were attentive and came by the table to check on me. The waiter was was condescending and kind of fake nice. He didn't say anything out the way but I got the strong impression he didn't want to be helping me. The lady that came for the empty dishes had more of the same energy. It felt to me that the all Latino staff were catering to the mostly white patrons . I even tried to lighten up the vibe and give one them a fist bump which he was extremely hesitant to give . The drinks are really good and food average. But the underlying service was poor . If you are African American I would not recommend this place. Maybe it's just this location. I spent over hundred dollars and feel like I got took advantage of. Never again. read more

Only reason I give it four stars is because I asked for nachos without refried beans but they put them on there anyway. Otherwise everything else was great. read more

I love Los tíos. I crave it every Sunday (at least). My faves: el carne asada el salvadoreña, chili con queso, guacamole, pico de gallo and bean and cheese pupusas. The carne asada is the juiciest most flavorful carne asada I've ever had. I have dreams about it sometimes. Everything is cooked fresh -- even the dressing on their side salad (which is also delicious). When it's warm out, it's a fun place to sit outside too. Margaritas are strong and the spicey one is HUGE! read more
