I love this location! My wife and I both have gluten sensitivity, and the team here always goes above and beyond to make sure our meals are safe and thoughtfully prepared. Every time we visit, the food is fresh, flavorful, and consistently delicious. The staff is kind, attentive, and welcoming--shoutout to the manager, Moises, who always checks in on us and makes sure we're taken care of. It's rare to find a place that combines great food with such genuine hospitality. Highly recommend! read more

We love all of the District Taco's but this one just fell badly. We walked in to an empty restaurant around 11:15 and the three staff members were just chatting. We ordered...sat down...no one made our food. I thought perhaps they needed to cook but no - all of the prep bins were full of food. I had to walk over and look at the prep bar as the three stood around chit chatting until they saw me and made the two burritos and one bowl. The rice was terribly undercooked (even a few raw ones mixed in), and the chicken so charred I couldn't eat it. I could tell none of the window counter tables had been wiped down so I had to use sanitizer on napkins to clean. Won't come back to this location. Really disappointing as we haven't experienced this at any other location. read more

It breaks my heart to write a 2-star review for District Taco, one of my favorite places to get a delicious taco and a great price. The location was busy, but the busyness is not my issue. I ordered my usual: three vegetarian tacos with all of the toppings. When I order that at the two downtown DC locations I normally frequent, the tacos are huge, filling, fresh, and oh-so-good! The experience here was none of that. The ingredients ratio was all off, and the tacos were about 1/3 filled as they are at the other locations. There were barely any beans, cheese, or sour cream, and the tacos were mostly cabbage slaw, which did not make for a very tasty meal. Also, the tortillas were stale and not a satisfying wrap. I was hungry and tempted to even order something else. $10 did not go very far here. I will stick to my downtown locations! read more

Stephanie tuff asl. She always hooks me up with good food and I really appreciate it.

I Blame myself I think district taco is only good for the people that were born here. I ate here before and said it was nasty, but decided to give them another chance. The flavors just aren't right for Mexican/latin food. I'm sorry I took one bite and spit everything on the floor. read more

Came here out of someone's suggestion and ordered 3 tacos to try. Usually they lay out the tacos on a plate or basket. I did not see it coming when they wrapped it in a paper wrap. Food was pretty good, chips and queso was definitely worth the price. 3 tacos for $8/$9 depending what you get. Gotta pay to add a few other toppings. They do have a sauce bar but only have about 4 or 5 different sauces of different spices. I would come back, and it was pretty decent food, but I hate that we pay for parking, can't win them all I guess. read more

Chicken or beef quesadilla is a perfect lunch event. Go to Reno park to eat it and chill.

I use to visit the location in Tyson Corner...i never had an issue but this place can't get your order right. I was directed to use the electronic order and put my request in. Nothing came out right even after stating that there were specific allergy issues with one bowl. After much hesitation, they said they would remake it. I again explained the order and even when asking "no cheese" they still threw a stack of cheese on the order. I explained the issue and they decided to scrape it off and not make a new order. Very sad. They explained that they were closing in 60 minutes and only have enough food to finish the day. I don't know, but it just seemed like a whole lot of I don't care at this place. read more

I only blame myself. I think the regular burrito here is....not good. So why did i think the breakfast burrito would be okay? I didn't expect it to be smothered in some sort of sauce. Damn. DAMN! And i shouldn't have ordered it with veggies which i forgot means x x x green peppers and some onions. The cheese inside was not melted, there weee very few potatoes. In fact when I finally came upon one I got scared about what suddenly had the texture of a rock in my mouth, and spit it out. The tomatoes and lettuce on the side seemed like they had been in the coldest fridge ever. At 11:30 am i wanted to make a better choice for myself than nachos. But this was pretty much a waste of money. The gentleman at the register greeted me promptly. I just wish the food had flavor here. read more

Yelp won't let me take a photo without mic access but this place put all rice in a burrito and then gave me two of them for $40. The service was friendly but the dude clearly knew what he was doing. I would like to watch him eat all this rice because it absolutely sucks and I'm sure he knew it when making it. read more

DT has always the best tacos. I like to get the 3/$9 and always get the jefe way which is lettuce, pico, veggies, cheese & sour cream just because I don't like a boring tacos and for my protein I like the carne asada & pollo asado i also like to get a side of chips with guacamole. They give decent amount of guacamole but I wish they can give us a little more to match the amount of chips they give. Location is very convenient and has a lot of street parking. read more

We've used DT in the past for catering and everyone enjoyed it. So when I had a strong craving for some tacos, I knew this was the place to go. Parking - As you know, parking in D.C. can be very hard and stressful. Luckily, someone was leaving as I was coming in. Be prepared, especially during lunch time. Now, the prices aren't the best. 3 small tacos for $9? Crazy. Back home, I get 6/$5, but hey...it's D.C., right? I went with the 2 steaks and 1 chicken but ended up with 2 chicken and 1 steak which turned out great. The chicken tacos were amazing. Full of flavor. The steak tacos were pretty bland, but the Verde sauce came to the rescue. The tacos are small and it wasn't filling for me, but it was definitely delicious. Does it compare to your wholesome tacos stands in FL, TX, CA? No. But it gets the job done. I will be returning! read more

First time here visiting from NJ. Great food, prepared fresh and fast. I had the steak taco and chicken taco. Very good!

Great prices and great food! Service was superb. Food was made to order. Various different toppings for your food. Recommendations that were presented to me and my family were amazing. If you are in the area I recommend that you try this establishment out! Not pictured are the chips and queso and they were phenomenal! read more

District Taco - Mestizo or Colorado, what's it going to be? - Mexican Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

One of the worst customer service experiences I have ever had because of Jennifer, the manager at this location. I made a Too Good To Go order with a pickup of 930pm. When I arrived to pick it up, Jennifer flippantly told me "oh we don't have any food left." So a customer pays in advance for food, takes time at night to drive and pick it up on time (and 30 minutes before closing), and is just told "we don't have any food left." I'm pretty sure that's not how business... any business... works. I have had Too Good To Go orders cancelled by the company in the past, but that is done far in advance of the pickup time. Why? So customers don't spend time driving to a location for no reason. Jennifer never said sorry, never offered a refund, nothing. I don't even care about the money back at this point. This is just not how to treat any customer... read more

DT is the McDonald's of Tacos. Its quick, cheap and yummy. I always order the three tacos & get chicken, carnitas and beef. The chicken tacos are soooo good! The guac is decent and the queso is more cheese sauce than actual melted queso, but it still does the trick. In this particular location service has always been okay, it's self service meaning that when tables are uncleaned it's more a reflection of the person who ate there rather than the staff itself. All in all, DT is a good/kinda healthy alternative to regular fast food! read more

I love district taco but they did me horrible today, I order four tacos of carne asada, and not one of the had enough meat, it had a lot of onions like an insane amount, I don't recall ordering tacos of onions, I almost wanted to drive back and go throw the food at them, it was really disappointing, if I ever go back to this place I will watch them while they make my food because that was unacceptable, i don't know the guys name who made my food but I know what he looks like and I will remember him, I seen him a couple of times before wearing his tight ass shirts but this is the first time he made my food, why is he hugging all the meat ? Does he buy it ? Like i don't understand what makes him think it's ok....That's probably the reason why those shirts are to tight . If you like the tacos just watch them while they make your food, if you don't like tacos ? Keep driving because they are expensive and for how stingy they are is crazy to me and I will not email you anything, if anything talk to your employees about proper service , no one eats tacos of onions only read more

As most taco aficionados in the DMV know, the region has a serious shortage of good tacos. District taco attempted to fill this gap years ago by starting a food truck which was a big success and has now resulted in numerous District Taco brick and mortar locations in the area. Overall their tacos are definitely better than your average DC taco. They still leave some room to be desired in the flavor department but luckily their salsas help in that regard quite nicely. I recently tried their huevos rancheros which I have to admit looked pretty impressive although completely different in appearance from any huevos rancheros I've eaten before. On top is a fried egg covered with a moderately hot sauce (although to me it isn't that spicy). Underneath is a layer of cheese, rice and beans with a corn tortilla at the base. Overall it was good but not truly great. The tortilla was very dried out, the egg was fairly bland as was the rice. In the end, the salsa bar saved this dish and is why I keep coming back on occasion. The place was very clean and service was quick too. Still way better than Chipotle! read more

Quick, made-to-order tacos.. how can I be NOT satisfied? I've stopped by this District Taco location a few times & I've only ever ordered the 3 tacos for $8. All times -- made quickly (less than 5 minutes), tasty, fulfilling, and way above average on my taco rating scale. You pick the meat/flavor, your choice of toppings, and there is a sauce bar for your preference of taste/level of spice. This place is definitely more of a fast-food dining experience so don't expect anything over the top. I've personally never had a bad experience here, and I've enjoyed all of the tacos I've had. They do have burritos, bowls, and quesadillas.. but I haven't gotten around to trying these. I personally did NOT enjoy the chips & gauc, but the delicious tacos make up for the stale disappointing chips. read more

Huge fan of the District Taco chains and have never had anything less than a 4/5 experience among the three other chains I have been too... that changed completely tonight. Walked in and the place was littered with trash. The three workers were cleaning the grills and putting away the food at 8:45- they close at 10. Ordered a couple burrito bowls for my girlfriend and I and despite being the only ones in the restaurant, they were completely wrong. Watched a guy come up to grab his take out order which he noticed had chicken not steak. The bowls were 3/10- very small, seemed like she was using scraps and like I mentioned, not what we ordered. Never coming back here again and don't recommend you do either; try the Arlington area or other DC chains. This place is a s*** hole read more

Food took terribly long to make. I was waiting for a good 20-25 minutes to get my food and once I received my food it was all wrong and even 1 burrito was missing. When I came back to tell them I was missing my food, one worker had told me they had already made it and that I was wrong. They eventually remade my order and it was still wrong. Not to mention the food is extremely over priced for the quality. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE. read more

Moises is the man! Great food at a reasonable price! Best breakfast burrito in all of DC!!!

One and a half stars. Not nearly as strong as the VA location I've been to before. Salsa bar is fine, though riddled with moldy bell peppers on ice. The al pastor is the best protein choice we've gotten, with barbacoa as a close second. Chorizo was okay, but the carne asada was really disappointing-- big chunks but overcooked. Should've gotten a side of rice with my trio of underfilled tacos, and the salsa was crucial in countering the lack of seasoning. read more

District Taco - Barbacoa taco, American way; Mexican way tacos: carne asada, al pastor, chorizo. - Mexican Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Mediocre fast casual Mexican fare? Sign me up! In all seriousness, I was at District Taco over the weekend, and was disappointed by poor service (mostly of the teenager-who-would-rather-be-anywhere-else-than-talking-to-you variety) and meh tacos. I had three chicken tacos on soft flour tortillas with onion and cilantro. While the meal was filling, the tacos immediately fell apart and featured more of the filling than the meat. None of it seemed overwhelmingly fresh, although I could clearly taste the cilantro. To their credit, there was lots of available seating and the selection of custom sodas is pretty impressive. But considering how much of an "it food" tacos are right now (and how impressed I was recently by Taco Bamba), there's no reason to go back after a flat experience. read more

Been a long-time stop whenever I come to DC. Gotta say ingredients a kinda dry; but, this was my introduction to corn tacos. Make sure to get chips and guac on the side, might be what they do best. I got their burrito once and it was pretty mid, so stick with the tacos. Cooks are friendly. Pretty fast-food, but depending on the location it might be really crowded. read more

Not what it used to be: no tacos al pastor, Boylans soda or the salsa bar. They don't seem to care anymore.

I've been to District Taco twice... I went twice in one week... don't judge me lol. I am a fan! I've only had the chicken tacos which are delicious. I've ordered with a mix of flour and corn tortillas. I keep it simple... just lettuce and cheese. I spice it up by mixing the two mild salsas they offer (they're soooo good). Ohhh and their queso??! THE BEST I'VE HAD (in comparison to Qdoba and Chiptotle). It's nice to add this restaurant into my list of quick and tasty tex Mex food! read more

Way better than bland, food poisoning laden Chi-nope-le. However, Im taking off a star for inconsistency in the proteins. I can tell when it's rushed vs when the chef cooks it WELL, you know charred on the outside, juicy on the inside. Ugh. *drools* On this occasion, after a killer workout, I had a free (via the stamp card) chicken taco (corn tortilla) "the mexican way" with cilantro and raw onion. Topped it with Tomatillo salsa from the bar. Simple but so delicious. Then, for the main event, I had the ensalada yucateca with romaine, half chicken/ half carne asada, pico, guac, cilantro and MORE raw onion with house dressing on the side. I also added a dark colored medium salsa from the bar. Super filling, not too salty or greasy/fatty. I havent eaten again today. read more

It wasn't my favorite place. It is a bit pricey for what you are getting. The food was okay, but not great. Would return there if in a pinch for a taco read more

I am surprised at the average reviews. We frequent this location often as it is near my place of employment. I regularly get the ensalada yucateca. You can get any toppings and protein. The chicken and steak are both flavorful, and excellent on the salads. The shrimp tacos are awesome, but are only available two days per week. The salsa bar is always fresh, although the containers for the salsa are small! The queso is creamy and delicious, and the guacamole is consistently excellent. read more

I ordered two tacos, and while they were delicious, as soon as I unwrapped them, all of the contents spilled out. Don't get me wrong, I know how tacos work, a third of the stuffing is bound to escape from the tortilla blanket, but for real it should have been wrapped tighter or better served. I might come back who knows shrug read more

3 tacos and chips and quest was the winner for dinner. I love the extensive customization you can apply to each taco, the small chips and Queso went a long way. Fresh salsas consistently delicious, I look forward to COVID ending and the salsa bar reopening. So good read more

Would love to give this place a 5 star but they did not have limes or any sauces available for the tacos. It should be illegal to eat dry tacos. The kids quesadilla was good and the soda option was great. The wait was long considering there were only 3 customers in total. read more

I didn't get to take a picture before devouring my tacos as a Texan who takes their tacos seriously, I am so sad that I didn't discover District Taco sooner! The prices are great and you can get your tacos how you want them. They have a tasty and fresh salsa bar for all you pico, spice, and cilantro lovers like myself. The staff was friendly as it was my first time. I can't wait to go back and fill up on more tacos read more
