    The food was exactly what we were looking for, characterized by attentive staff who made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The selection of adult drinks was nothing short of spectacular, featuring unique and flavorful creations that tantalized our taste buds. As for the food, it was precisely what we had desired—deliciously crafted dishes that not only satisfied our cravings but also delighted our senses with their presentation and taste.

    No air conditioning and little service ruin a good food experience. No A/C is hard to defend anytime during the summer in DC, much less one of the hottest days of the year. Cold drinks help, but empty drinks and glasses aren’t a priority. .

    I really like the old location closer to Metro Center much better. I had not been to DC since 2022 and really loved MXDC back then. This time the music was pulsating and disco-level loud. On the Friday night we went there, there were only about 10 other people there — not the after work professional crowd like 3 years ago. Food and drinks tasted good, but I’ve been to Taco Bell with a better atmosphere. So sorry!

    The 3 taco combo is delicious but it was really hot inside because they prop the door open which let's the mosquitos in and we were all getting bitten up.

    First, I was unaware of the location change. The new location is very nice but it was an unfortunate mistake and I wish that this was flagged on the website. Next, perhaps the restaurant was understaffed but we had very limited service. Our food was mediocre and my friend's dinner was forgotten. Once we received our food, a server never returned. MXDC is not cheap, so this was likely my last visit. Unfortunate.

    I love this place. I visit once or twice a month. I left my AirPods one day and they kept them for me until I came back for them. Very kind people. The food is delicious and the prices range from low to moderate to high so there’s something here for everyone. They make THE BEST mezcal cocktail and tacos

    Great food and service, but the music was very very loud, which was a distraction as we could not talk and hear each other at the table.
