I was visiting dc for the weekend with our family we were looking for some tacos and found district taco I loved fish and breakfast tacos hope you guys come to Texas and bring the good stuff. The place was really clean and neat. The staff provided great customer service. And I love the way they all worked together my food tasted better because it was made with care. Antonio was incredible friendly and helpful he also gave us vegan options since we had some family member that are vegetarians. Loved District Taco hope to be back in dc to come again.

One of the best places I’ve been to love the Yucatán flavor and their original taste. I would highly recommend their new barbacoa it’s amazing. Antonio was really helpful when it comes to explain the menu. Great customer service from team members as well.
