Best Restaurants for Spicy Food in Cleveland Park

First time eating here but had heard great things about it and we all agree and were very pleased. We ate outside also nice.

We popped in for a quick lunch. The guacamole was delicious. I ordered the chicken enchiladas which were fantastic. My kids each ordered the carnitas tacos which they loved. My husband ordered the steak tacos and chicken thigh tacos, I thought they were dry and had little flavor. Service was excellent and ambience was great. We would definitely come back.

Our server, Cheryl (sp?), was terrific! She was a real pro: upbeat and friendly but not awkward (neither overly familiar nor obsequious). Offered her comments in a welcome way and generally seemed to have complete charge of a VERY busy space. The food was very good, especially the side we ordered (sprouts) as an appetizer. My scallop dish should have skipped the “snap peas” which were what most of us call edamame: they were quite tough and leathery, which didn’t play well with the tender quality of scallops (or anything!). If they’d stuck with the crunch of the asparagus and subbed in something else more digestible for the peas, they’d have a winner. My companion’s Portuguese Stew was a hit. The atmosphere is bustling and noisy: great for an energetic rather than quiet and romantic outing. Kids would have been welcome, too, I think. All in all, would definitely recommend!

Amazing! Panang curry was incredible. Highly recommend! The seats are kind of close together so it seems ideal for a party of 2.

Great mo mo’s!!!!! Beautiful small restaurant with great friendly service.
