On 10/16/2025 Bartłomiej L had this to say:
You really get a bang for your buck - for 20$ I got a burrito, refried beans, rice, veggies and 2 fresh corn tortillas, not to mention the complimentary water and nachos with pico de gallo. Taste wise - the food was great and tortillas were soft and fresh. I highly recommend giving it a try.

Yummy!!! The chips and salsa were soooo good. The chips were super thin and fresh and came out warm. We got a couple refills because they were just that good. There was a ton of options to choose from on the menu. I went with the crispy tacos and they were great! Came with some yummy rice and beans and your typical fix-ins of sour cream, guac and salsa. Would come back for their chips and salsa

Stopped in for a late lunch while I was in the neighborhood and I’m glad I did. The lunch burrito bowl was spot-on — fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. Service was excellent as well — Kevin took great care of me and made the experience even better. Definitely worth a visit!

Very good food at a reasonable price. The service was excellent! We had the table side made guacamole as an appetizer which I highly recommend.

El Tio is the heartbeat of the neighborhood...always buzzing, always delicious, and always welcoming. I’ve been coming here for years, and I’ve never seen it slow down and for good reason. The staff and management set the tone with genuine hospitality, making every visit feel like a celebration. Even on the busiest nights, service is impressively quick and attentive. The food? Absolutely outstanding. Fresh, vibrant, and seasoned to perfection, every dish bursts with authentic flavor. It’s no wonder the place is packed night after night. El Tio isn’t just my go-to spot, it’s hands down one of DC’s best Mexican restaurants.
