Mexican restaurants in Washington, DC

  1. A

    Andale

    The executive chef spent the summer in Mexico and was so inspired that she revamped her restaurant - formerly the Mark - into this innovative, contemporary, south-of-the-border gem. It's been more than five years now, but Andale is still a local favorite serving a solid lineup of complex Mexican dishes. It's all good, from the original artwork and Mexican lanterns adorning the dining room to the caldo de mariscos (spicy seafood stew).

  2. B

    Rosa Mexicano

    With house specialties like made-at-your-table guacamole and pomegranate margaritas, it's no wonder this visual masterpiece across from the MCI Center is usually packed. The shockingly pink dining room and wall-size blue-tiled waterfall see everyone from tourists coming from the Spy Museum to locals grabbing an enchilada and early drink. Aside from the guacamole, the food can be hit-or-miss - ask your server for recommendations.

    Mixtec

    Budget Mexican that eschews the taco/burrito/enchilada drabness of the genre, Mixtec is justifiably popular with Anglos and Latinos. The moles are freshly prepared, the meat authentically spiced (rumors say they use more than 200 seas-onings) and the huevos rancheros are a great hangover cure.
