MK McKenzieNovember 24, 2013I didn't know the standard table salsa could be so DAMN GOOD. Obsessed. The chips are top notch, guacamole is to die for. Margs are superb. Tacos are delicious. Great place. Going back ASAP.
Behrad EatsDecember 19, 2013You 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!
Bitches Who BrunchMarch 23, 2016El Centro Happy Hour is 4-7. It serves margaritas, agua frescas, wine, and beer for just $5. They also have select bites to choose from all under $8. Read more
- Behrad EatsJune 21, 2016You must order the insane El Centro Dog which is a bacon-wrapped hot dog topped with Mexican slaw, black bean purée, and habanero mustard.
- Robb FitzsimmonsDecember 20, 2014Happy hour $4 margaritas were a pretty darn good deal. (Even better deal x2-3). Guacamole could have used some salt and cilantro, and the chips shoulda been warm, but overall would go again.
Shannon JeropkeNovember 10, 2021This location is in the old 3rd Edition spot. Their unlimited brunch “tour” was definitely a lot of fun!
- Chris BierDecember 1, 2013What to do at El Centro: get the slider with guac and cheese. What not do to at el Centro: not get the sliders. Did the bottomless brunch without drinks for $25. Was great.
Adrian PhillipsNovember 28, 2017From 3-7pm you can work towards downing as many $5 margaritas as possible. With freshly squeezed lime, you can order these frozen or on the rocks. Accompany your drinking with Guacamole and calamari.
Direnc KadiogluNovember 7, 2016Enchiladas! Shrimp dishes are extra delicious :). Also come here for Saturday's for International nights to dance lots of salsa!! It is always fun.- Hanna ChristianJanuary 4, 2020AMAZING bottomless brunch. Great vibes, venue, food, and service. Drinks are amazing too!! Perfect place for a group brunch
Brent GatewoodJanuary 26, 2018Happy Hour is the best. A real Mexican Hot Dog, great deals at the bar. A definite must!
New York PRApril 13, 2015If you go for brunch you only have the option to do the all-you-can-eat option. Brunch includes margaritas but not the frozen variety and they will have very little alcohol in them.
Yuri BJanuary 11, 2014Happy 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.
Alan Arturo DayNovember 3, 2013I always have the cheese enchiladas. They're delicious *.* The guacamole is also very good, as are the margaritas.
Jennifer JacksonJune 19, 2017Seriously amazing guacamole, chips and salsa. Had the Mahi street tacos. Amazing!
Angie HarmonSeptember 28, 2013I'm from Texas, and I can say without reservation that these are the best micheladas in DC.- Robyn CronkhiteSeptember 1, 2014They have happy hour every day! $2 Taco Tuesdays and great margaritas
Laura StrmelOctober 1, 2014The rice! usually and afterthought at most mex restaurants.. This rice could stand as a dish in itself
Jessica PlacenciaFebruary 15, 2015Yes to the margaritas. Yes to happy hour. But most of all yes to the tacos. Watch out gets swamped for happy hour.
EaterMarch 23, 2016The lunch combos give a nice sampling of everything El Centro offers and. I'm partial to the torta combo.
Sandra RubinchikAugust 23, 2014This place does not skimp on its Restaurant Week menu OR portions. Like their picadillo empanada, I came out stuffed.
Angie PalacioMay 15, 2018The food was okay. There's a club on the second floor. People there get crazy after 12am... lol
Jeremy LittleDecember 31, 2013Terrible service time and cold food. Mango margarita was delicious! The spicy guacamole was the only thing served at the proper temperature. Came in post-lunch; not sure why everything took so long
- Good set up and bottomless brunch deal for $35, but service is so-so.
David JenningsApril 18, 2014The wait staff seem very uptight and stuck-up. Food is good, but for the price could be better.
