Muchas Gracias

"Excellent mole- will definitely be back for it. Had the birria tacos which were perfect, fried and crunchy but not greasy- which is incredible given the generous amount of meat and Oaxaca cheese in the tacos. The service was very attentive and kind."

"We arrived for a 5:30 Saturday reservation and were seated immediately. The place was empty except for the bar, but started filling up around 6:00. It is a tight squeeze literally everywhere inside, which didn't matter to me but may make it inaccessible to some. (They had high chairs, but I have no clue where one might be placed without blocking everything.) I don't know how packed it gets, but I think the entire restaurant would breathe better if they removed 1-2 tables. Of course, I assume those tables are needed on busy nights which is amazing for the restaurant! We ordered the chip service, guacamole, sweet potato appetizer, duck main dish, and taco main dish with two drinks ($130). Everything was delicious and served quickly. The staff was attentive, polite, and professional. Overall, a great date night! Would love to come back."

"I used Muchas Gracias take out for both Thanksgiving and Christmas 2023. Both food experiences were EXCEPTIONAL! The meals were absolutely out of this world. The Thanksgiving tamales melted in your mouth. The Christmas tamales (wrapped in plantains) were very flavorful also. The garlic rice was addictive, and the turkey with mole was even better than anything my mom ever made. The staff was incredibly responsive to email questions, phone calls, and one last minute pick-up change. I highly recommend the restaurant and its special offerings. It's about a 30 minute drive for us with no traffic, and it is worth it! I would have included a photo, but the food went too fast."

"This restaurant serves the delicate and exquisite intricacies of the Mexican culinary experience. Don’t expect to come here feeling heavy after a meal, it is about the taste and explosion of flavor. It is now the best Mexican restaurant in DC, in my book. Not only is it a great dining experience in a beautifully intimate space but they go above and beyond with social activism. It is a true gem. The staff goes above and beyond. Something that was not pictured was that we had an exquisite picture of the spicy margarita. A great mixologist got me a good buzz. I am a big fan from my first experience and am delighted to be going back as much as possible. As a Mexican living in DC, this has been the saving grace. I often feel that the Mexican food is not good enough in DC and this restaurant proves me wrong."
