    Steak Quesadilla
    Alexandra M.

    I absolutely love Salazar! They have the best DJ I have ever found. Both times I've gone have been an absolute blast, and the staff are amazing. I love their steak quesadilla, hibiscus margarita, Paloma, and espresso martini. Their Cosmo mocktail is delicious and refreshing. They don't charge for hosting events! They also have really good chips and queso. The first time I went there was an incident with a really creepy guy. I told the bartender and they took it so seriously, they had bouncers come and get this guy out of there immediately. I have never felt so safe at a nightclub/bar establishment as I did at Salazar. I knew I could freely bring my girlfriends here and we'd have a great time feeling safe and protected and having fun! I aim to host many more of events at Salazar, and hope to join them for their happy hour soon.

    Salazar is always a great time. I've used them a couple times for events that I've had send the staff is always super helpful and kind. The food is DELICIOUS. The tacos are amazing, especially the steak one. Perfectly grilled and seasoned to perfection! The inside is pretty chill as well. Very welcoming.

    Amazing atmosphere on the rooftop! Plenty of seating, great natural light / fresh air from the partially open roof, and friendly service. I came during happy hour which has plenty of good specials every day of the week--tacos are packed so two is enough for a full meal.

    Cute little spot ! We had the nachos and I also had the pork belly taco which was also really good! Well priced for dc both drinks and food! Service was friendly and fast and would return during the day !

    Salazar is a really fun bar! From the bell to throw shots at to the ample space for dancing and general mingling, it's an easy spot for a fun event. The churros were an easy highlight of the night despite the fun activities, company, and tasty drinks. They were light and flavorful with a chocolate dip that complimented the cinnamon perfectly. The chipotle chicken taco was exactly what I needed to pair with my margarita. The server went out of their way to find me amidst the crowd which was much appreciated. I'm excited to go back when the weathers a little warmer so I can better enjoy the rooftop experience!

    I came here for a friends brunch and we had a great time. The food that was served to us was buffet style and was good. They served quesadillas, tacos, brunch potatoes, different style dips. And they had bottomless drinks that included mamosas, margarita, two types of beers. The management was very nice to work with. Igor was the manager on duty and he was very kind and accommodating! The bartender was super sweet as well! We were in a nice sized room in the back They also have a roof top where there's another bar and music! Over all good brunch experience

    Came for a friend's going away party (she reserved the rooftop) and it was pretty fun! We sampled the chips, margaritas, I had a GREAT Paloma cocktail, and an Al pastor taco which was tasty! It never turned into a dance party like I hoped, and I'll ALWAYS miss El Centro brunch (RIP ), but I'm willing to give this place the benefit of the doubt and come back again!

    Came to Caroline's for friend's birthday brunch and she took care of our whole party of over 20 without any complaints and super nice and super attentive. The food was so good for it being small servings. Music was great and of all genres. Overall 10/10

    My daughter had a showcase next door so we stumbled across this restaurant completely by accident. I'm glad we did because we had a great time. We chose to dine in for brunch at the open area counter area near the entrance. There was no window there so it was great for people watching. The service was great and prompt. I ordered the breakfast burrito, the guacamole, and a cheese quesadilla for my daughter. Everything was SO good. I took half of my burrito home with me and it also reheated well. I'm so glad I found out about Salazar and I plan to go back soon. I want to check out the upstairs areas.

    hosted my birthday party there this weekend and it was amazing! such a fun vibe and they gave me a free drink for hosting. the space was not super private so we definitely were mixed with a lot of other people but thats what you expect when renting a place to party for free. overall awesome and they stored my cake there and let us eat it at the bar!

    Partying up!

    I gotta say I enjoyed the heck outta myself at this place. Formerly El Centro, I have found myself coming for a more bar focus now rather than for brunch like I did with the previous establishment. One time was a part of a self-led holiday crawl where I was trying different spots with holiday decor... it was a blast then! Let's not talk about the bell challenge... I failed miserably LOL. But more recently I came to meet a couple folks for a casual happy hour. I started with food, getting some black bean quinoa & mango shrimp tacos. I... wasn't even hungry, but the tacos were phenomenal. I have some top-rated taco spots on the MD side, and this was the best thing I'd had since going to those places. the BBQ taco (as I will now call it LOL) was the perfect veggie taco and I'd send my sister there to check it out! I loved the mango shrimp too, but the BBQ definitely stole the show for me. I sipped on a margarita as well, which was a pretty darn good margarita... oh, that's right! I got chips & salsa too! That salsa was banging! I'd come back for the food easily! I'll be back for sure! Especially on Thursday, when HH is all night! :)

    Ordered one of each of the tacos, except the black bean one!

    Okay so looking at the brunch menu, I was sold! Bottomless drinks and tacos, I had to at leeeeast try it out! Unfortunately, mid is the first word that comes to mind after my brunch experience. A group of friends and I went here for a Saturday brunch service and were reminded upon entry that we had a 90 minute reservation and that it started as she was seating us. No problem, grateful for the reminder. Our server comes over and we immediately order drinks, another 90 minute reminder. Another person joined the party, another 90 minute reminder, this time with a little sass as the server said she "wished we had told her more people were coming because the clock started." The late person ordered yet had to wait 15 minutes or so for her drink. She mentioned it being a little weird that the same place repeatedly reminding us of the 90 minute limit was so slow in getting food and drinks out. I am pretty sure we were reminded about five times about the 90 minute limit. The tacos came and were alright, nothing to call home about. The best part of the experience was when our server brought out the pitchers of mimosas and margaritas. Due to the slow service, every time she came to our table, at least three people needed refills. She eventually brought the pitchers and though she made it seem like she was doing us a favor, it seemed mutually beneficial. I would not recommend going here for brunch and think even if food was mid, service could have definitely ben better.

She came back and told me that it wasnt the same fryer but they were close in proximity and she couldn't guarantee that there would be no cross contamination. Shellfish allergies are very common and I would imagine that the kitchen would have better precautions to insure that there is no cross contamination to ensure no one gets sick or a reaction.

My waitress was super friendly, bubbly, and really knew the menu. She gave some great recommendations. I ordered the American breakfast and the biscuit French toast. Everything was good! The sunnyside eggs were especially great, and both the sausage and bacon were cooked really well. Even the arugula salad that came with the breakfast stood out. It had a light lemon vinaigrette that I really enjoyed. The hash browns with a fried block delight. I wasn't sure what to expect with the biscuit French toast, but it tasted exactly like it sounds. biscuits turned into French toast. It didn't have that classic French toast flavor, but it was still really good and worth trying. The atmosphere was nice, pretty packed, but the noise level was just right. My waitress checked on me often, which I appreciated. I'll definitely be coming back for brunch!

I didn't want to eat at the hotel, so I checked my Yelp app and saw that there is a sandwich spot nearby. I decided to walk a few blocks and try it out. I was glad I did! It's a very unassuming place where you can sit down and have a lunch or dinner or you can get it to go. I decided to get mine to go. I was greeted by friendly cashier. She asked if it was my first time there and I said yes. She explained how the ordering process works and explained a little about each sandwich. I decided to try the RBG, which was $18. I believe all sandwiches are $18. I was a little surprised by the price, but I wanted to try it. The RBG is delicious pork sandwich with coleslaw and a soft, yet crunchy bread. Don't get me wrong. I am not a crunchy bread sandwich type of girly. But this bread was just right for this sandwich. I had the ability to eat the entire sandwich with the bread not becoming too soggy and falling apart. The pork was tender and flavorful, the slaw was crunchy and tart. It was a wonderful combination. The only negative thing that I have to say is that it is a really large sandwich! So, make sure you bring a friend to eat the other half...so you won't be tempted to eat it all like I did!
