- LLaurieWashington, D.C. Area •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoDelicious meal and a great experience. We ordered the roasted carrot salad, duck confit taquitos, elote corn salad, birria tacos, and churros - all were amazing. Our drink glasses went empty a few times, but it was a very busy night. I would've liked to seen more mocktail options and they were out of the only nonalcoholic beer option. I will definitely come back again. Recommend 10/10.More infoCitrus & SaltPrice: Moderate• Contemporary Mexican• Seaport•4.6
