A native Californian, I was long in search of good Mexican food when I moved to DC. For quite some time, the best I could do was Cactus Cantina (and its Dupont Circle counterpart, Lauriol Plaza),…

I signed up to Yelp just to save you from the biggest mistake in Mexican food. I ate at Mixtec last Friday and am still reeling over the fact that I paid $55 (including tip) for the most mediocre…

Mixtec never disappoints. If you like authentic Mexican food and order a real Mexican dish, you'll be happy. Stay away from the chips and salsa - order some of their regular appetizers instead.…

Mixtec is a great find for close-to-Mexican food in Washington, DC. Being from AZ there is no comparison, people out here just don't get the taco-cartness or hole in the wall. For God's sakes,…

I've lived in Adams Morgan for ten years and we often take out of town visitors to Mixtec. We don't expect a "Chi Chis" fake mexican experience. We do expect (and receive) a warm welcome and…

I love Mixtec because- 1.The prices are very good for the take out menu, which is a bit cheaper then the eat in menu. More places should do this!

Not too bad considering that I haven't found outstanding Mexican food, yet, in the DC area. They claim their tortas are the best in DC, and I had their carne asada torta (aka Pancho Villa) which came…

One time here was enough for me. For a place that looks like it used to be a locker room, I was surprised to see that Mixtec nickel-and-dimes its customers.

Mixtec is your aveage, run-of-the-mill Tex Mex place. It seems to be a bit heavier on the Tex than the Mex though: I'm not sure that anyone on the waitstaff spoke Spanish and there were some pretty…

From the outside, this joint looks like nothing special, but it sure beats the pants off of Tex-Mex nearby wanna-be's Lauriol Plaza. Now I have no problem with the L.P. if you want some average type…

The only thing that stood out about Mixtec is the placemat. An A-through-Z of Spanish words, with pictures, to show you what they mean; like you'd find in a school. Borracho is the best, as it means…

I don't really care for Mixtec. The food is not phenomenal which I would expect from and "authentic" Mexican restaurant. The sangria leaves much to be desired.

The only reason this is not a 5 star rating is that there are no free chips and salsa and you have to pay for soda refills. But, don't order soda because the margarita's are the best you will ever…

With so many great Mexican and Tex-Mex restaurants in DC, Mixtec should be low on your list of places to visit. The beef and chicken tacos were bland. The food was not cheap -- $12 for three tacos
