Visited this restaurant back in March. I was with a fairly large group. The service was awesome. We…read morewere seated quickly (as per our reservation) and the server was very attentive. I stuck to the late night happy hour menu and ordered the Frito pie. It was REALLY good. The portion was smaller than I expected, so I'd definitely order two next time. I nibbled on my wife's shrimp fajita and it was delicious. The drinks were very nice. I ordered the spicy margarita and it was delicious. The ambiance is warm and cozy. It's not a large space, but I did not feel cramped. There is an outdoor heated seating area as well.

Very cute and cozy spot with an intimate dining vibes…read more Service was a bit slow but a large part of that was due to our waitress managing several tables at the same time. However, the waitress was excellent with providing order recommendations and ensuring that we were taken care of. Drinks: I ordered the ranch water which wasn't anything spectacular. Just a simple non-sugary drink to enjoy while dining. I opted out of the fajitas but the rest of my party loved the steak and shrimp fajitas, which were part of the fajitas 2 deal. Plenty to share and I heard that the steak was cooked to perfection and the shrimp was seasoned well. I ordered the taco salad and that dish was PHENOMENAL! There is something to be said about a wet salad which manages to hold some crunchy texture to the taco strips. Also, it was perfectly chopped and all ingredients were mixed together so well. To complete the dish, I ordered a side of rice and chicken. Both were delicious but the chicken portion could use some work. Overall I'm curious to try their breakfast tacos so count me in on returning! They also offer a great happy hour so I recommend stopping by to enjoy their bar or even their cute outdoor seating.

As a girl who grew up in Colorado and then went to school in both Texas and Southern California, I…read morehave spent my years in DC struggling with one thing: finding a truly great taco or breakfast burrito. DC has incredible food from across Latin America, but when it comes to Mexican food and Tex-Mex, I have opinions. Strong ones. And I remain on my seemingly never-ending search for the perfect DC breakfast burrito. In the meantime, thank God for La Tejana. I'm incredibly lucky to live nearby, which means I can sneak over on a weekday when there's little to no line, walk in, order, and be back out ridiculously quickly. I usually bring my dog along for the adventure because the whole operation is so efficient that it really can be a quick in-and-out. The staff has also always been wonderful. My order is the Uncle P. I get three tacos, eat two for breakfast, and save the third for a little snack later. And the cilantro crema salsa? I could probably drink it. It is SO good. But we need to talk about the tortillas. Their tortillas are fantastic, and this is one of those details that makes or breaks breakfast tacos and burritos for me. I've found some decent breakfast burritos around DC, only to have the whole thing ruined by a sad store-bought tortilla. Flavor, texture--it matters! I somehow keep missing La Tejana's tortilla sales, so apparently I need to get much better at stalking their social media. I also loved when they had the bar and went a few times while it was open. Maybe it comes back someday, maybe it doesn't. Either way, I'm just happy La Tejana is here. Until DC finally delivers the breakfast burrito of my dreams, I will continue pretending three La Tejana tacos are one deconstructed miniature breakfast burrito. It's working for me.

This place is a hit. I went on a Sunday around 10am. The line was down the block and continued to…read moregrow. It moved pretty quickly. Not a long wait at all. Small space inside but ran like a well oiled machine. Very short wait once we ordered. Went upstairs to eat. They have a small sitting area but you'll be lucky if you find a spot. Only because it was so busy. Good thing, the weather was great so no one minded waiting or sitting outside. Now for the tacos!!! They were so good. The tortillas are unmatched, so good. Unfortunately, the brisket one was sold out. I would order with no potatoes next time, as they kind of overpowered the tacos. Otherwise, they were delicious. My son gave it a 8/10 only because he wanted more bacon lol. The saucesssssssss. 10/10 no notes, highly recommend. Mix them together!
