Sonia Nagda: Elote (Mexican grilled corn) is a must. The calabacitas tacos (fried zucchini) are a great choice, even if you're not vegetarian. Ask for the salsa picante (hot sauce) if you need an extra kick.
Wilson Andrews: One of the best kept secrets in DC. Great pork tacos, the corn is ridiculous, and the bartenders make a mean cocktail. Ask for the Suffering Bastard.
Scott Klein: Amazing corn and mezcal. The strawberry habenaro margaritas are good too.

Ryan: Not really a dive bar if you have $10 cans of wine. But don't let that stop you from coming here. Free popcorn and a decent happy hour until 8p go a long way.
Roxy K.: Great neigbourhood bar with its witty soul and free popcorn, which also has quite a wide selection of spirits.
morg: free popcorn and a happy hour that goes relatively late (8pm). Bingo on Mondays, trivia Tuesdays and board games available any night. Great neighborhood bar

Chantale Wong 王毓敏: Get a bucket of Calvert kettle corn for $12 the first time and then $6 refill each time after.
Monique: Get the kettle corn...thank me later.
Anna John: If you already have/are willing to buy $12 bucket of Calvert Kettle Corn, bypass reg/long line. AVOID their pre-bagged corn-- it was stale, which is too bad because I think it would've been delicious.

Mike Reid: AUTHENTIC stuff here. Scratch made corn tortilla. The tacos were super moist and well-seasoned. The carnitas, chicken, shimp, al pastor, and canitas w/pineapple. Loved 'em all!
Jesse Thomas: Washington post called these tacos the best in DC. For authentic style, they are awesome. ✨they make every single thing on their menu in house including their famous corn tortillas.
Thomas Vander Wal: Great tacos on freshly made corn tortillas. They are not large. Really good goat barbacoa, al pastor with traditional pineapple. Special grilled octopus taco was tender and full of flavor.

Matt Liles: Get the skirt steak and enchildas. What the menu fails to mention is that they come with corn on the cob with butter, chilli powder, and parmesean cheese on top.
Eric D: The Butcher's Farmhouse Grill is amazing and comes with one of the best corn on the cobs I've ever had. Also, try their scratch sodas. They make them in house and are delicious.
Sam H: The best brunch EVER. Corn bread(smother it in butter please), chicken and waffles, toast with marshmallow spread and peanut butter, bacon lollies, literally any cocktail and your life is complete

Amy Graff: Stylish vegetarian tacos with a premo location on the C&O Canal. Creamy kale and potato is overhyped, but try the smoky eggplant. Small selection of wines and beers, delicious fresh corn tortillas.
abigail.: We had the mushroom taco, potato taco, and corn taco and they were all fantastic. Also added the in house pickled jalapeños - so good!!
Paul Mederos: Weekend tacos with fried eggs omgggg SO AMAZING! The space is beautiful upstairs.
