A minor bummer of an evening. The food was fine (supermarket level tortillas and un bold spicing, but there was a nice balance of ingredients in the burrito). The service wasn't rude; they just didn't care. My burrito was brought cold, which, no problem, it happens but when I asked them to reheat it, they stuck the whole plate in the microwave and brought it back with warm guacamole and pico! Just nobody, in the kitchen or front of house, seemed interested in our experience or that of our kid. They put about as much effort in making the kids quesadilla interesting as they did making our kid feel welcome. The nicest part was the crowd; it's obviously a neighborhood hangout and there were peop...
The food and the drinks were ok. The service on the other hand was not. Our waitress was rude and seemed to be disturbed we were there. My family of four were the only patrons of color, and our server seemed annoyed to serve us. I ordered a kids apple juice, but was given a boxed mango drink instead. I sent it back and ordered a lemonade, but was given water with lime, and a bottle of simple syrup. There did not seem to be a language barrier, however this woman was intent on giving us whatever she wanted despite what we actually ordered. She did not crack a smile or communicate with us other that to bluntly ask what we wanted. We were totally turned off by the service and won’t be patronizin...
Hands down the best Margarita in town. Do not rush through it! Enjoy. They also have a limeade that is honestly equally delicious, liquid sugar is brought out to add if you would like it to be sweet. I prefer no sugar in the limeade. What should you order? Whatever looks delicious to you, it is ALL delicious, fresh, so yummy. Smaller menu. Specials posted on the whiteboard out front. My favorite order is 2 crunchy tacos. Can not be beat, I add a little of the salsa that they bring out with the chips.I think they could stand a paint job (but not sure I want them to close long enough to do that).
My go to Mexican restaurant when I'm passing thru the Alexandria-DC metro area. Good value, steak tampiqueño being my favorite plate. Tried a few other mexican restaurants in Del Ray, but will stick to el poblano. Quiet neighborhood, easy parking on Mt Vernon Ave. Several interesting shops along the street worth visiting, for locals and visitors like myself.

Place is small but the food is great and staff are friendly. I go for the burrito myself.
They have the best Margherita around. And the portions are perfect.
