I had a great meal of upscale Mexican food on a date at MXDC. Absolutely loved the lobster guacamole and the open style quesadilla. Molè was also great, though maybe a bit on the bitter side. I also had a VERY spicy Spicy Margarita. I’ve had a lot of spicy margaritas, and this one was next level spicy. I couldn’t finish it. Otherwise the staff and atmosphere are lovely, and I would definitely eat there again.

My party and I (6 people total) enjoyed a lovely dinner here early Saturday evening. They were able to seat up slightly early which was very nice as I had my more senior grandparents with us. The food selection was fantastic everything was got was very very good. We all enjoyed our meals greatly. The portion sizes while not as large as what might be available at other restaurants are still very filling and even provided some leftovers to take home. Overall great.

We were visiting DC from PA. Stopped into this place for dinner and so glad we did. Beautiful atmosphere, great customer service, and the food was absolutely delicious. Wish I remembered our server’s name,he was great. He recommended the sea bass and I will definitely get that again, the flavors burst in your mouth. They treated us to the Mexican sponge cake,so good. Can’t wait to visit again!
Thank you for a nice experience.

Visited over the weekend for brunch. It was an okay experience. I was unaware that there was a drag brunch and felt that my service was affected by that. No where on the site was it mentioned. There is also an automatic 20% tip included which is fine however, I believe I received 10% service due to the server more attentive to the bigger crowd. I probably won’t come back anyways.

Enjoyed the experience overall here for brunch but nothing spectacular meriting an immediate return. We enjoyed most of the items we ordered but several first preference items were unavailable, and the decor was vibrant and energetic, but the service was lackluster, all rounding out to a good but not great experience.
We enjoyed the queso fundido with chorizo but the amount of chorizo it came with was very meager (like a teaspoon), and we had to order an additional side. The goat cheese quesadilla was quite good, we enjoyed the distinct flavors. I enjoyed my steak burrito enchiladas, which was basically a wet burrito with a red mole sauce, but the quality of beef could have been better. My wife enjoyed her huevos rancheros but they were not particularly memorable. The churros were actually quite good, freshly made and the caramel sauce was delicious.
Items like the chilaquiles, the lobster and guacamole, and several of the tacos were unavailable/out of stock, and we went at opening time. Super disappointing.
Service was very spotty, even though the restaurant was fairly empty.
Definitely think they can do better, and will need to.

A Mexican restaurant that serves suchi…. it’s a win-win. Authentic Mexican dishes with a twist. Everything was well seasoned and cooked just right. The suchi (salmon/avocado/cooked salmon) was delicious. The dessert was made sweet but not over the top. With unique flavorful drinks, it’s delicious.

Expensive considering the quality of the food. Worse than that was the music being so loud that it was impossible to talk to anyone else at our table.
Paella was decent, but the chicken was VERY overcooked and tough to chew. Seafood was good though.
Ceviche was a tiny serving and extremely mediocre. Felt like the shrimp was precooked and not cured in the sauce.
Ceviche + paella + 2 margs put us at around $120 after tax and tip. Also check your bill because for a group of 5 they included a “large group” tip.

I’ve been here a few times over the years. I haven’t been disappointed yet. I would say it would be nice to see dessert wine added to the menu to complement the dessert foods. Other than that delicious and high protein goodness is all I can say.
I got a bees knees and the young man made it very well.

Mexicana cocina ft. Sushi! We know my love for fusion restaurants, so I was ecstatic to try this one. Absolutely phenomenal service, and the vibes are SO fun.
Pretty, hot & tempting: Very tasty, a lil’ spicy and comes in a pouch!
Catrina: I never thought I’d get a drink with Frida on it but here we are! Such a fun but classy bevvy.
✨️ Dos Salmones roll: A traditional salmon roll with fresh avocado that can do no wrong.
✨️ Cautro quesos funditos: A gooey queso and particularly my favourite appetizer.
✨️ Mx Enchiladas: A classic trio of enchiladas and one of my go-to Mexican restaurant orders. Won’t be disappointed.
✨️ Pescado a la talla: Grilled Branzino is perfect for the branzino lovers and great to share.
✨️ Churros: The cutest churros I’ve ever had and delish. Made perfect ending to dinner.
✨️ Tres leches: Though not as cute as the churros this was seriously such a good tres leches and I would absolutely order this again.
Overall, it is a really unique and fun establishment offering a great variety of tequila beverages with fantastic food. I’ll definitely be back!

Great food and really fast service. Lovely vibe on a Friday night, and not too loud. Most tables are bar seating which wasn’t super comfortable. Not very flexible for vegan options. But overall a great experience!
