Guapos offers a wonderful dining experience, especially if you're looking to enjoy a meal on their side patio. Not only is this space dog-friendly, but it also allows you to take advantage of their happy hour specials--a perfect combination for a relaxed outing.I started my meal with a frozen mango margarita, which was a refreshing and delicious choice. It had just the right balance, not overly sweet, which made it especially enjoyable.We decided to split two appetizers: the Southwest egg rolls and the quesadilla birria. Both dishes were incredibly flavorful. The egg rolls, served with a fantastic guacamole, were a highlight, and I found myself wanting to slather the guacamole on everything. The quesadilla birria offered rich, savory notes that complemented the meal perfectly.No visit would be complete without devouring their chips and salsa. Both the chips and the variety of salsas kept us munching throughout the evening.

I don't know what happened but why did the clam chowder tasted differently. Is it that long I havent been here? Probably because i go Fairfax often. My tongue got numb from the saltiness and where's the taste of clams??? It tates like watered down cream soup with bellpeppers... im sad. We loved the burrito, fajitas and quesadilla, but my soup ;( Campbells is much better that this and it costs way less... Service is superb as usual - ambiance is perfect.But my soup ;(

Coming from Texas, I'd say it is hard to find a good Mexican place around DMV, this is one of the better spots tho. The atmosphere is great, and the service was very hands-on. They offer bar, indoor, and outdoor seating, and with how spacious the place is, it's perfect for big groups. The food was satisfying! The salsa had good flavor and a nice kick (could use a bit more heat to be perfect). The sizzling beef and shrimp felt like eating a molcajete dish--just without the sauce. We also took home the mango cheesecake, which was good, but I wish they used mango jam or purée instead of the jelly-like topping. Overall, we enjoyed every bite, and I bet it would be even more fun to come back at night!

The food here is generally good. I don't think it's completely authentic but again, generally good. If you decide to try this place, you'll find several free parking lots nearby, which is very convenient. The service is usually good and the setting is nice. Casual. Comfortable. Respectable. I tried the tacos del Pueblo, which is a mix of the 3 taco of your choice, and refried beans and rice. Flavors are fairly good but it is messy to eat.

Expect it to be packed!! But even so, we had a party of 6 and were told it'd be a 45 minute wait, they were able to seat us in 15!Super fast service and our waitress was so kind and helpful. We really had such a great experience here. All of the staff was very on top of refilling chips and salsa, topping off water, clearing plates, etc.Food came out hot and accurate to our orders. All delicious!! Highly recommend coming here

I've eaten at Guapo's Shirlington a few times over the past year, despite having only been once or twice before for drinks only. I really like it and this type of Mexican cuisine is not really my favorite. The staff are amazing. Very friendly and attentive, despite it being constantly busy, and that definitely adds to my enjoyment of Guapo's. I also like that I can delivery from them later than a lot of other places in Arlington, which is helpful. The lively atmosphere is also fun. The margaritas are strong and delicious, so that is much appreciated. I love the vegetable fajitas. They actually give you a variety of vegetables, which are all perfectly grilled/charred and not just thrown on the skillet, unlike some other places. They thought the put into the dish is noticed. It's become my go-to order. My companions have all enjoyed their dishes as well. I like their chips and salsa. I've also had one of their ceviches and it was good. I'm very glad I've given Guapo's a chance and am always down to return.

This was my first visit to Guapo's and it won't be my last. Met a friend for an early dinner on a Sunday evening before a show at the Signature Theater. It was busy, but we were seated right away in the midst of many birthday celebrations (I lost count of the number of times the staff sang Happy Birthday). Highly recommend the chips and chile con queso. The chicken chimichanga was delicious - I ordered it topped with cheese instead of sauce. I splurged on a large strawberry margarita and it was perfect, even on a cold night before the first major snowfall of the season. Fun, festive place for dinner and/or drinks.

Honestly, I love Guapo's. I had a nice intimate, solo lunch on the side patio today and it was lovely. The staff members were incredibly attentive. The food was good (note: it was good - it was not exceptional - I spent a lot of time in Cali.... Mexican food is different there... the five stars is for the overall experience that I consistently have here).Today, I ordered the chicken enchiladas, and sangria. Of course, they blessed your girl with free chips and salsa. And you know what I noticed today? The roasted salsa is actually served warm. I did not notice that the first time. It was great. I definitely like the chunkier salsa a little bit better, because the roasted just doesn't have the exact flavors that I look for and a roasted salsa, but I appreciate them both and I like to actually mix them.Enchiladas: very good. Green sauce could be a little greener, meaning, having more of a true tomatillo flavor. But good overall. Portion size: good. Again, the chips and salsa are bottomless and free. And, even though the thought of two enchiladas seems small, they are actually pretty full and pretty filling. Plus, they are served with rice and beans. You can sub and get double rice if that's your thing.Sangria: good. Pretty basic red wine mixed with fruit. I definitely had a little bit of a buzz after drinking a regular, but the large is 24 ounces and might be what I get next time. Lol.Vibes: i'm telling you, I really appreciated my time on the patio. I didn't realize how peaceful it was. Even with relatively loud Latin music playing in the background, it was so calm and I was able to work there for a couple of hours while enjoying a nice lunch.I will be back. Oh, I have used the bathrooms here before and they were relatively clean. They have Wi-Fi. And yes, you can tap/use your digital wallet to pay at the table.
