Love the name, food not authentic, was looking for real tacos, and was disappointed, mole enchiladas were just ok and the beef in the bowl was very chewie
Great atmosphere and service. Their tables are well spread out and all the staff were wearing masks. Our server was very attentive and provided great recommendations!!!

Excellent service and attentive staff. Cocktails were amazing, especially the margaritas. The honey salmon is delicious.
Excellent service and friendly staff. Margaritas are yummy and strong. Beautiful restaurant, its upscale yet casual.
Tried for the first time on Friday, had to go back Saturday. All staff was very eager to accommodate. Nicole was server on both visits and the recommended entrees and wine were brilliant.
Great food as always!!! The whole family enjoyed their meals.
Lobster guacamole! Need a say more? Food is always delicious!
Great food and attentive service!!! They accommodated our group even though we were late for the reservation!!
Great food. Staff was nice. The restaurant was very quiet
The habanero margarita is sublime. The service impeccable.
Great dinner, the whole family loved the place. It got very busy right after we arrived but their tables were nicely spread out. Glad we made a reservation!!
Made my reservation for “standard seating,” not high top. But we were seated at the high tables anyways. No worries, I just asked if we could move - but the hostess was really hesitant and that was annoying.
We moved to a regular table, but didn’t get our waitress for awhile. And at the time we sat, there was only one other party in the restaurant.
The drinks were quick and good. The spicy marg was really unique. The tacos, however, were pretty bland. And very small.
Overall it was just an okay experience.
Great food and drinks!! The salmon was delicious and my new favorite. Beautiful restaurant and great service.
Hadn't visited in while but MXDc is still as great as ever!!! The weather was nice so we sat at their patio. Their menu is a little reduced but they still had our favorites like the honey glaze salmon and the carne a la parrilla. They are also offering $6 margaritas all day so that was a great surprise!! Great and friendly service!!!
We visited MXDC again for restaurant week and it didn’t disappoint. Great food and service.
I took my wife here for her birthday dinner. She lived in Mexico during grad school, and absolutely loves Mexican food. It was restaurant week, so the options were fairly straightforward. The pitcher of blackberry cilantro margarita was dynamite!! The food was good, we were simply expecting more at that particular price point. A good experience nonetheless, my wife enjoyed her special day.
Excellent food and service. We love this place. But it was a bit cold and buggy ( mosquitoes). This is not our normal experience so this is definitely not the average situation. There were some loud folks at the bar watching a basketball game, and I don’t consider this to be a sports bar so would suggest turning off the tv so people can disconnect and relax.
Great food and friendly service!!! We had to wait a few for an outdoor table but it was well worth it. Their restaurant week menu was great and went both went for it
Guacamole was good. Salmon had a spicy rub on it that was good. Tres leches was not as moist as expected.
Wonderful evening spent at MXDC celebrating a coworker's going away dinner! Many thanks to Tony and Javier for making this experience so much fun!! Delicious food and great service!!!
Wonderful dinner and attentive service!!! Everyone had a great time and we all enjoyed the delicious food.
Great happy hour deals and margaritas!!! They have both indoor and outdoor seating. Our server was nice and friendly!!
We came here for a dinner date and enjoyed it very much. We sat at one of their patio tables enjoying the nice weather. Great food and service!!!
The food was bad and the server did nothing to resolve it
Good happy hour specials with great margaritas!! Friendly and quick service. Will come back!!!
We had a great time during our visit. Their tables are nicely spread out for social distancing. Will come back!!
Excellent enchiladas and margaritas. Our server was great and kept the experience fun. Will come back!!!
Everything was great!! Quick service and friendly staff. Great margarita specials!!
We missed MXDC while they were closed due to COVID. Glad to see them open again. Still the best margaritas in town!!!! (You can reserve tables for happy hour too)
First post covid visit. The food And margaritas were great as always. They have virtual online menus but also paper ones. We were glad to see that their tables are actually spread out too. Great dinner, will come back!!
MXDC is a great upscale Mexican Restaurant in the DC area. It is a great lunch spot. I do wish the tables were slightly farther apart, as the noise level can get high during lunch, making it harder to have conversations with other guests at the table.
Food was average and prices high. The service is not great - the waiter refused to write separate bills for our part (he said they do not do it as mxdc) - this is contrary to every other restaurant I have been at in the USA. Plus, my credit card bill showed up with a higher tip than I gave (disputing it now). Not happy with the waiter.
