Mexican restaurant · U Street

"If you’re going to pregame before the function or are just looking to drink multiple pitchers of margaritas with your friends, El Rey is the place for you. Everybody and their mama is here: the college kids, the baby boomers, the we-just-need-a-drink-girl crowd. It’s loud, it’s fun, it’s grungy. There's a skylight ceiling that makes the inside feel like outdoors plus plenty of seating for large groups. The drinks aren’t fancy, but they’re good for what they’re worth and the mango margarita is downright delicious. " - omnia saed
