La Plaza Mexican & Salvadorian Cuisine

Had a really great time here! With it being cold, the front foyer was nice in helping the restaurant to feel cozy. We sat in a half booth/ chair situation that was perfect! Ordered the El jefe regular margarita that was awesome. I ordered the veggie fajitas no peppers(not a fan) and it was phenomenal!! There were so many other vegetables that it’s now my fave go-to. My dining partner ordered the chimichanga. They enjoyed it, but wish it had queso on top. The chips and salsa were perfect for us hungry visitors. Can’t wait to come back!! Great Mexican/Salvadoran spot!!

I just ordered a veggie quesadilla and nachos. The quesadilla had BROCCOLI and tomatoes in it??? Like who does that especially a "mexican" place. They told me the sides for my nachos(which were burned on the edges) would be on the side yet they were all on top. This was "to go" so everything even the broccoli quesadilla was no good to eat by time I was home, and hardly had vegetables in it. If you want to drink then go not for great food though it's crap or maybe if I was another race I would've gotten better service & food.

Great service, super friendly staff. The best horchata I've had in all of DC. We went to try the pupusas as they were highly recommended. I tried the chicken chimichanga, and it did not disappoint. The food options were varied enough to merit a return to try different dishes a few times over.

We came excitedly to try some Salvadoran cuisine and arrived close to the end of lunch service, so the atmosphere was very quiet. The establishment is rather dark inside. Service was quick, and they offered a kid's high chair. For lunch, we had the crispy beef tacos and el cuscatleco. First of all, we loved the tacos. It is flavourful and very well-balanced. However, it was a mixed bag with the el cuscatleco - the pupusa was okay, and we didn't enjoy their tamale. On a positive note, we enjoyed the fried yuca and plantains. The ramp entrance is wheelchair and pram-friendly. There's also outdoor seating available.

A great place to grab some margaritas and chips & salsa. It's a tad expensive (but so is everything else on the hill) and sometimes the food is a bit off, but is usually very tasty.

We’ve been going here off and on for many years. Usually a casual lunch and margaritas. This time just early drinks and chips. The restaurant was just opening and they were very accommodating. No food but previously the food is always good. Pics of a margarita and chips. Boring review for a gem of a Mexican restaurant. No doubt we will be back.

Tough to find a place that deserves 5 stars all around but this place was impeccable. We visited while walking around town and found this place. Adequate outside seating but plenty of room inside for a nice cool retreat from the sun. Affordable and delicious frozen margaritas - they also serve up their guac with warm pita like chips which was totally new to me! The service felt like we were family and they even comped us a round of tequila shots! This meal secured my sturdiness to walk around and explore for several more hours so of course, I will return!

I made an order online. The food was nasty! I ordered a pork pupusas and quesadilla. It was poor quality and NO MEAT!!!! DO NOT AND I REPEAT DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS TRASH. The so called manager decided to argue with me rather than apologize for the poor quality of the food. Don't spend a dime unless your looking for trash.
