dLeña by Chef Richard Sandoval

"Unlike a lot of other spots doing bottomless plates, Dleña has food you’ll actually look forward to. You can easily make a whole meal out of standout dishes like carnitas tacos and chicken and waffles, and everything on the menu is pretty tasty. If your group adds the bottomless beverages, the assortment of drinks includes three flavors of mimosas, a couple of bloody styles, and, of course, margaritas. The Mexican spot is filled with cacti and firewood (that they use to cook the food). The bar takes up about half of the room, but there’s still plenty of space for large groups at tables in little alcoves." - mekita rivas, omnia saed, tristiana hinton

"Descend Richard Sandoval’s modern Mexican restaurant’s stairwell illuminated in an amber glow to find gender-neutral bathrooms that seamlessly blend into its lower-level mezcal speakeasy. With high archways, wrought iron touches, dark-slated wood ceilings, and a full-length mirror, the space begs to be snapped." - Abi Newhouse, Nicole Schaller, Eater Staff

"Mount Vernon Triangle’s Mexican darling sets a lofty bar for bottomless brunches, churning out both bottomless booze and food ($69 per person, or $45 just for food) in a chic dining room washed in comforting neutrals and accented with rustic wooden beams and tables. Wash down birria tacos, churros, tuna ceviche, and salmon with tequila bloody marys, mimosas, and margaritas on Saturdays and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m." - Tierney Plumb, Stephanie Carter, Emily Venezky
