    Our 3 generation family had a fantastic meal. The staff accommodated our request to dine outside, and provided terrific service. We have eaten many times at Guapo's Bethesda and always feel well taken care of and full from delicious and beautifully prepared food.

    The food was delicious. We had 2 appetizers - chicken quesadilla and the fried calamari. Both were wonderful. My girlfriend had steak & shrimp fajitas, also great. And the value was outstanding, because it seemed like pre-pandemic prices and quantity. Our waiter and the attending staff were very attentive and accommodating - superior service. The only negative was my date's drink - a weak mojito. I had pineapple/coconut lemonade - delicious!

    Excellent dinner. We sat outside so noise was minimal. Inside was definitely a bit louder. Portions are huge. We got a side of guacamole to have with the free chips and it could have feed 10 people. Sangriarita was deliscous cocktail. Loved the food and service was excellent

    I used to love Guapo’s and went specifically for the Plato grande and it’s different now. The flavor wasn’t as good and the onions weren’t cut up and cooked well. Also the sweet corn cake was cold. Bar service was slow to get drinks. Overall, I’m disappointed as it was out go-to place.

    Had a group of 7, we had a staggered arrival and they sat the group as we arrived (no waiting!). as each group member arrived, the wait staff checked in for orders and brought the food/drinks quickly. After the food arrived, they allowed us to eat and catch up without interrupting and were attentive when we called them to the table. Very festive atmosphere with a few groups in the room celebrating birthdays and no issues with the noise level as we were able to carry on a conversation without yelling at each other at the table. Will go back soon to try out more items on the menu!

    Ordered chicken enchiladas and a tamale de elote (sp). The enchiladas were dry and lacked cheese inside. The server spoke toy dinner mate but didn't speak with me, i.e. would you like another soda? Never asked me but asked my dinner mate. The whole meal sucked!

    The queso, guacamole and margaritas were fantastic. The servers were very attentive. Everyone enjoyed the food. The only thing was I ordered the Guapo Salad and it did not have the roasted red peppers in it. I asked for no tomatoes so I think they thought I didn't want either.

    This specific location was new to me. It could be that this particular evening packed so the service was slower than usual, but my 630 pm reservation for six turned into three hours and it shouldn't have. It took a long time for anything we ordered. Things were forgotten, we had to ask multiple times. Very disappointed in the tequila selection for a tex-mex place.
