Bodega Taqueria Y Tequila

Okay let's talk about this place. They're from Miami, which is awesome. The last place that came from Miami left several years ago... I hope this doesn't follow in the same footsteps, but let's see what happens. RIP 100 Montaditos!Anyways, I've been twice now -- both on weekends... I should try going on a weekday to compare vibes. The interior is quite inviting, and the speakeasy in the back.... what a mood! It's inside of a building, but where you make orders is like a... trailer park thing? Food truck stand? It's really cool haha. But I haven't done that yet, I've went straight to the back where the speakeasy is. Both times there's been a loud DJ and felt less like a speakeasy and more like a club, though. Their food is pricey. My friend didn't love her tacos, and I tried just a taste of the queso. After recently having a pretty elevated queso, it felt like a downgrade indeed. Where they may lack in food, they make up for it in the drinks though. My goal is to return on a weekday and see how the vibe is different. I'll be back!

Service was amazing! Thank you the top tier service man who was so efficient in getting our order right! For the food! God awful! Would never go back. Good taste like it was made without any love or care. God awful food. Taco bamba all day and everydayAgain staff was beyond amazing and helpful

Came here with a friend to have a drink. The had a waitress stationed near entrance to explain how everything worked. Nice touch. We got some Mexican sodas from their big bucket. We placed our order of chips and guacamole at the window of the imitation grey "bus."Food came quickly. They were attentive in cleaning our table and asking if we needed anything. Noise and music level were comfortable for a chat. The nearby Circa is way too loud (can't hear each other).

Okay okay let's get into it! This place and the design is so cute! My friends and I were able to visit for a beautiful and successful launch and if you're into Mexican food you'll be into here! Why? Because not only is there the cutesy ambiance but also this cute bar/loungey area ln the back! Service and staff was great! Metro accessible so super close to GW metro as well!

I've been hearing good things about this spot called Bodega Taqueria y Tequila, so I had to check it out to see what the hype was about. Let me just say, upon entry it is super cute. You walk in to see half an airstream as the center point of the establishment, which set the tone. However, my boyfriend and I were on a Happy Hour mission, so we made our way to the back where there was a speakeasy, which was absolutely packed, but what else do you expect on a Friday evening at Happy Hour, next to the George Washington Campus. So we make our way to the bar for the $3 margaritas. The Margaritas tasted more like yellow Gatorade, even though I watched the bartender make it right in front of me, but can you really expect from a $3 margarita "Kanye Shrug." On to the food; they had 3 tacos for the $12 and some change. I got the ribeye, chicken, and pork tacos. Although the tacos were pretty good, they could have used a little sauce. Now tell me how these tacos magically went from $12- $20 when I checked my statement (I gave the bartender my card because like I said it was packed; and it was a digital transaction). Like what on God's green earth is this type of gratuity and tax? Anywho, my boyfriend and I ran the tacos back (like I said they were pretty good) and got Modelos instead of the margarita. The tacos almost took and hour to get this time (we did not get them until after Happy Hour was over and people cleared out). Gratefully the management was on top of it and comped our tacos and gave a 2 drink tickets for either margaritas or Modelos.Now to the DJ; DJ Xavi was great and kept the vibes going. He played a lot of Bad Bunny but mixed in between some 90s music, which I loved. Overall, my experience was decent. I would definitely go back but I think I may go back during a non happy hour time, so I can enjoy it a little bit more.

This place is legit. The vibe is fun and cool. Easy to order. Friendly staff. Lots of options for food, drinks, and booze.

Today I experienced my FIRST speakeasy in DC and had a blast! I went in expecting just to get tacos with co workers​ after work and to our surprise found a hidden lounge with great music and service. Kadejah in the front area did a great job referring us to the back where we were greeted by one of the MOST authentic servers I've ever met Phantom. She guided us through the menu with ease and suggested her favorite drink, the passion fruit margarita, which is now my favorite as well.​ Her aura was unmatched as she correctly guessed my zodiac sign based off first impressions. Also suggested I order a Fiesta Tower that came with a ton of dips, chips, yuca fries, and pepper quesadillas. The food was a 10/10 and we most definitely will be coming back on a weekly basis to indulge in happy hour.

Bodega Taqueria Y Tequila in Foggy Bottom What A Vibe! I LOVE this spot. This is my new go to spot! Excellent Guest Service. Liv, Kiyana, Maria, Laura, Duby, Daily, Travon are the absolute BEST.

The food here is so delicious so shout out to the chef. Love the ambiance here. It's a very chill vibe especially after a long day of work. Thank you guys for your excellent hospitality! 10/10

Heard about this place and finally ventured out there. Staff are incredible friendly and the restaurant are is nice but the lounge is better. Nice to know they serve food into late here. I gotta say I don't think I've seen a hotter bartender in DC than Laura over here. The cocktail menu has nice drinks but I'm glad Laura was able to make my go to drink so perfectly. Definitely feels like a place I'd like to come to again and again. Check it out!

When you go if you dont have Phantom as your server, then your experience is not being maxed out. Find Phantom, or you're wasting time.
