Mexican Restaurant · Fan - Oregon Hill - Carver · 79 tips and reviews
Brian Attridge: As a huge fan of Chipotle, this place was infinitely better than the fast casual chain. The "fork & knife" burritos are a must, and not too badly priced (about 10 bones). You can't beat fresh!
Kat Staggers: the carnitas were heavenly. incredible food, chill atmosphere, & great staff! can’t recommend enough for a late night bite to eat
Philip Heesen: The street corn appetizer is incredibly good! It comes with two ears, not just one. Also, the $3 endless chips with three salsas is a great idea. The habanero salsa is the hottest and tastiest.

Marie Richer: Nice bottle shop and wines by the glass in a relaxed atmosphere . Tasty food and snacks and friendly knowledgeable staff.

Ana: Low key restaurant with high quality food at a reasonable price. Been coming here for 15 years and never had a bad meal. P.S wear washable clothes, you'll smell like the restaurant when you leave.
Nate Boateng: Pulled pork is delicious. Tres Leches is the best you'll ever have. Share plates! They're HUGE!
RVA Badge: An beloved neighborhood restaurant, the food is well worth the wait. Don't forget to always save room for the Tres leches, Food Network even featured the dessert on The Best Thing I Ever Ate.
