Love the ambiance here. If you can’t get a resy for the main dining room, ask if you can sit downstairs at the speakeasy. Fav parts of my meal were La Luna, the short ribs tacos, and the enchiladas!
Can’t go wrong with any of the guacamole options. The seafood enchiladas and empanadas were solid too.
The CrabCake Tostada, Grilled Mushroom Tacos, and Wood Grilled chicken were delicious 😋
The Quinoa & Kiwicha Salad with avocado, golden raisins, mozz, caramelized cashews, marcona almonds, Peruvian corn, cherry tomato concasse, & passion fruit dressing offers a nice sweetness and crunch.
Best Lomo Saltado in DC, believe me!
The ceviche mixto is delicious! Also, everything in the dessert menu is great!
Pork and cheese papusas are awesome and cheap. Worth a trip. Soups, carne asada also great.
Nachos so good you'll slap your mamacita.
This place is a hidden gem. Driven by it many times and finally decided to stop in. Smells incredible. The quesadilla is awesome.
I love the salad bar for lunch. Lots of selections
They don't sell Half Foods here.
Value Meals, offered in the deli section at all locations, are a great deal. For $6,8 or 10, choose a main dish of chicken or pasta + 2 non-protein sides for $6, vegan +2 for $8, meat/fish +2 for $10.
I always have the cheese enchiladas. They're delicious *.* The guacamole is also very good, as are the margaritas.
Happy Hour margaritas will make you indeed happy: $4 and enaught spirit to get,tipsy any lightweight. Make sure to get $10 guacamole and chips side to share with your friend.
You can't beat the $35 bottomless brunch here. You get to try all the items on the menu and all the brunch drinks. Don't fill up before trying the Chilaquiles, they're fantastic!
Try the chapulines. Terrifying but delicious. The crickets actually taste like the delicious crunchy ends of burnt beef.
This Mexican playground from creator Jose Andres is a trailblazer. Thanks to recent expansion next door, it's also more comfortable than ever.
Authentic Mexican food is not one of DC's strengths, but José Andrés does it justice at Penn Quarter's Oyamel — with, of course, the chef's signature twists. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.
