The food is very affordable, and the portions are filling. I ordered the carne asada bowl, and it was delicious. There is ample seating both indoors and outdoors. The staff is friendly and attentive. Considering the area, it's affordable without compromising on quality. I highly recommend checking this place out!

Got an early lunch here and was glad this location was near where I was staying. Had a good selection of food to order, the staff was friendly, and service was prompt. I liked that they had a "Mexican" style of rice here, and a really good selection of toppings for a bowl. It also tasted WAY BETTER than Chipotle to me, in that it wasn't overcooked, overseasoned, and overly pretentious. (The chips were a bit stale to me, but they weren't overly salty.) Nice little location with really good food!

Got a massive taco for 4.30, the vibe was like Chipotle but everything was a level up. Super tasty and lots of nice seating upstairs and outside.

This is a favorite for those working at or near the Washington Convention Center which is less than two blocks away. Tourists have also added this location to their favorites. If I don't have a lot of time I take out. But when I have the time I love to dine in and watch the people walk by. The staff is always very friendly and patient. It's the perfect location for fresh made to order options. When it gets busy, and the line is out the door, the crowd moves quickly. Orders are always accurate and the portions are plentiful. This location gives Chipotle a run for their money. When it comes to freshness, soft taco options, enormous burritos and bowls, all boxes are checked. Plus their frozen margaritas are awesome. They also have a happy hour special. Plus let's not forget Taco Tuesdays which includes a meat selection and two toppings. You can also eat upstairs and when the weather is nice you can sit outdoors as well. Their breakfast options are also appealing. If you are a regular please sign up for their points program. The points can be used for free options.

This place offers quick, delicious food at reasonable prices. The taco was only 3.50 and was very filling. Good luck beating that around here! There is very little seating--a table for 2 and a table for 6. That's it.

Good fast food Mexican restaurant near the Washington Convention Center. Quick service, good fish tacos, indoor and patio seating, and reasonable prices compared to most of the local restaurants.

Great little spot to grab a bowl to go! The queso was a off today. Was not a big fan. Needs to be a little thicker. Everything else was on par. I’m a fan of Sol Mexican Grill.
