"Lauriol Plaza is always a good time and always has space for you and the homies when you’re tired of Saturday afternoon restaurant-hopping while trying to find a place taking walk-ins. There’s nothing special about the Mexican food at the Dupont Circle institution, but the frozen margaritas will get you right and you can laugh as loud as you want. With all the hustle and bustle, it’s also a great spot to come if you’ve got kids in your group because no one will notice if they throw a tantrum. On a nice spring day, you can’t beat Lauriol’s patio, so if you can stand an extra wait (and there will be a wait), take advantage. " - omnia saed
