Several friends recommended The District Taco while we were visiting Washington, DC, and it was a…read moregreat lunch stop. We happened to visit on a Sunday when kids eat free, which was a nice bonus for our family. I ordered the chicken bowl, and everything tasted fresh. The chicken was cooked to order, and you could tell the ingredients were prepared with care. It stood out from many of the larger burrito and bowl chains thanks to its freshness and flavor. If you're looking for a quick, fresh meal while exploring DC, The District Taco is definitely worth checking out.

It was raining so we set inside but there's not a lot of room and the place wasn't clean. The trash cans were overflowing which was a little gross. The food itself was a little on the salty side but was good and fresh.

They eventually took our name and told us it'd be 10-15 minutes for a table. Things got better once we weren't seated. Our server noticed we were given the brunch menu, so he got us the correct menu right away. He was so kind and accommodating. The tables are a little small for the presentation of the food and the noise level is a bit loud, but it is a pretty fun atmosphere. We appreciated they kept our water glasses filled since it was so hot and humid that day. My daughter got the tortilla soup and cheese enchiladas. She enjoyed her meal. I went with a variety of tacos including chicken, carnitas, shredded beef and barbecued pork. I steered clear of the cactus and grasshopper tacos lol! Everything was really good! Glad they were able to turn things around from the first impression.

My girlfriend loved her burrito de asada. It was so full of flavor and tender asada. I loved my enchiladas de mole. The mole sauce was perfect. The rice and beans were great also. Finally the gorditos de asada was generational. Not only were they filled with great tasting asada and grilled veggies, but the plain Gordito literally brought me back to my abuelas gorditos she would make me growing up. Brought me to tears. I definitely plan to visit this location anytime I'm in DC.

I got the nachos, my husband got tacos, and we got a chicken quesadilla for our toddler. The nachos were PILED with toppings and so colorful - even in a take out container is looked beautiful. They were SO tasty, very full of flavor and spice. My husband said the tacos were delicious and our toddler actually ate a lot of the quesadilla. Win all around. Highly recommend!

Everything was so good! Can't wait for my next visit.

Arrived on Sunday at 1:45 and we sat at the bar based on what the spaced out hostess told us. Sat at the bar for 10 minutes. The bartenders were working hard so no big deal on waiting. When someone was finally able to take our order, we asked for the bottomless brunch. To which we were told, "sorry the cut off for bottomless brunch is 1:50 because it's 2 hour experience and the hostess should have let you know." Hostess didn't mention anything because she was lost in the internet. We tried to explain to the bartender we arrived before 1:50 and have been patiently waiting and that we need to leave at 3 so we won't be staying long. We again tried to explain we were here before time cut off and would not be long. Didn't matter. They wouldn't honor bottomless brunch. We politely said we prefer to eat elsewhere.

Their Shrimp and Crab Guacamole has become my go-to dish whenever I go there. The underlying Guac is fresh and flavorful. By itself, it is amazing. However, for a few dollars more, they add a heaping portion of crabmeat and a bunch of good-sized (and tailless) shrimp. It can be, and for me, frequently is, a meal in itself. Add a couple of cold beers, and I'm a happy camper.

The fries were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Also got their frozen mango margarita and that was such a treat on a warm day. Came with a small group with a reservation so we were seated right away once everyone arrived. The waiter was so patient in explaining their menu and making recommendations. He was attentive the entire time we were there (and kept bringing us more drinks). Location-wise, Mi Vida is quite accessible via Metro or walking since it's in Penn Quarter and there's a few museums and other points of interest in that area.

Our waiter, unfortinately didn't understand many things we asked, not sure if he understood english. He said yes to everything even when I knew he should have said no...service was spotty, drinks slow to get, dinners in a decent amount of time, they were not busy. Food, very good, I had carne asada, the only thing holding them back from 5 star was the steak was over cooked and tough. The Pico and guac were excellent.
