"One of the best places for brunch in town is the bright, colorful, always-packed Urbano 116, which serves vibrant Mexican and Tex-Mex dishes against the backdrop of a giant Frida Kahlo mural. Convince your friends to wake up early for their excellent chilaquiles and brunch fajitas, plus a plate of breakfast tacos. If a round of Micheladas for the table sounds like child’s play, there’s the option to order a massive, 56-ounce margarita. Happy Hour, which runs from 3-7pm Monday through Friday, is also a great time to come by." - madeline weinfield, mekita rivas

"Recently retooled from Modern Mexican to Tex-Mex, Urbano offers 32-ounce or 64-ounce portions of margaritas that pair well with chicken enchiladas or shrimp fajitas." - Vinciane Ngomsi
"Urbano 116 is a Mexican restaurant in Old Town that has been operating for a year. It is set to open a second location in the Mosaic District in Fairfax. The flagship location is undergoing a major menu overhaul, shifting from traditional Mexican dishes to Tex-Mex plates. The restaurant will temporarily close for a brief period for a menu reboot and a light refresh of its design." - Tierney Plumb
"Lots of lucha Libre masks, lights glowing in neon green and pink, and a tile mosaic floor that crawls up the side of the bar all make for a fun setting to enjoy chef Alam Méndez Florián’s Oaxacan-inflected cooking. — G.H." - Tierney Plumb
