    I've been to this restaurant about a dozen times in the last year or two and have never been disappointed. I wish it was closer to my house! We often go in a group of 5-7 people and it amazes me how quickly the food comes out; I do not recall any mishaps with our orders. I'm a fan of their tacos, especially the mushroom, pulpo and vegetarian. I've had their chapulines tacos a couple years ago, but they (little grasshoppers) have not been on the menu lately as far as I know; was I the only one ordering them;) Waiters are always helpful and accommodating. They have indoor and outdoor seating, weather permitting. Parking can be a challenge, but that is true of most of Bethesda.

    Wonderful place, the food was amazing! We got the short ribs and grilled shrimp and both were really good. I did think the short ribs weren’t very filling compared to the shrimp though. The presentation was really good and the atmosphere was wonderful. I also really enjoyed the drinks. I would totally go again, just would probably eat at the speakeasy below for the quieter more intimate vibes.
