Creative tacos with bold flavors & a salsa bar for customization
"DMV-wide taqueria Taco Bamba made a D.C. comeback two years ago, bringing chef Victor Albisu’s Mexican street foods to upper Northwest’s City Ridge development. The whole menu, available for takeout or delivery, features District-specific orders like a chicharron-topped Hey Zeus with mumbo bacon. Meanwhile, City Ridge just welcomed new sushi spot Shinwa Izakaya with takeout and delivery out of the gate." - Tierney Plumb
"Taco Bamba, chef Victor Albisu’s popular taco chain with a knack for rock music, offers the “Houndgarten” patio, where pups can get free red bandanas and water bowls splashed with cute branding. Suit up dogs across its DMW-wide portfolio, which includes its comeback D.C. digs with a big outdoor component." - Tierney Plumb
"The popular Mexican street food spot features a familiar menu of traditional tacos such as al pastor and carnitas, along with speciality additions only available at the Ballston location. The El Rico Pollo taco, a homage to the nearby Peruvian chicken institution, includes spiced chicken, green chili puree and aji amarillo mayo." - Eater Staff
"Victor Albisu’s acclaimed taco joint started its rapid expansion out of Falls Church with this suburban location. Since then, it’s added a cocktail bar and grown the menu. Tostadas, loaded nachos, and hefty tortas appear alongside the healthy roster of tacos filled with everything from kabocha squash and pepitas to barbacoa. Online ordering here." - Missy Frederick
"Taco Tuesday comes alive in Tenleytown at Taco Bamba. Chef Victor Albisu’s fast-growing taqueria that made a triumphant comeback to D.C. proper nearly a year ago. Dozens of tacos to choose from are packed with proteins like al pastor, birria, chicken tinga, and fish. Breakfast is also available for those whose taco hits early in the morning. The location features a sizable patio and excellent mezcal program." - Vinciane Ngomsi
