Place has a very chill environment. The cook is very sweet and polite. She made the food in prompt timing. She also served our food. My son and I went on a Thursday noon, it wasn't busy at all. Very quiet if you'd like to sit and eat in peace. Food was good, menu layout could improve perhaps add pictures to it to make it easier for people who aren't familiar with Latin food. A little more lighting and a little background music could be convenient too:)

Every Wednesday night I have a client that I meet with at the library that shares a parking lot with Tomatillo. Not wanting to drive all over Rockville or Wheaton this past Wednesday I walked into Tomatillo. Let's talk about that experience, shall we?The Tomatillo is at the end of a old, beaten, seemingly uncared for strip mall. Walking into Tomatillo, the theme of a less than pleasing environment continues. Although not dirty, really, it just doesn't project "Hey, I'm clean and well kept, eat here". The server was very friendly and helpful. She was the lone bright spot during my Tomatillo experience. I order salsa and chips, a bean and rice pupusas and Pechuga a la creme.The salsa was redish water with tomato and onion chucks. Was it good? No.The pupusas was over cooked with burned areas on both sides. It was tough to chew and lacked flavor. Was it good? No.The Pechuga was interesting looking, chicken in a sea of very runny yellow gravy. The chicken was rubbery, hard to cut, hard to chew. The yellow gravy tasted like yellow would if yellow had a flavor. Was it good? NoAs I only had the three items mentioned above I can't speak to the specifics of the entire menu. However, since runny, flavorless sauces and gravy and over cooked, hard to chew food seems to be a cooking style here, I can not see anything on the menu having great value or flavor.Environment is a 1. Food was a 1.Service was a solid 3.I am giving the place a 2 star rating because I can't give it a 1.5 and 1 seems mean when it's clear that they at least try not to be awful, they just sort of fail.

I was having a terrible day and said what the hell it's taco Tuesday i might as well find a place to go. My friend and i decided to come here. Only thing that sucked is that we literally just missed happy hour-go figure. We started off with a tamal de elote and it was really good. We had tacos and pupusas. I got tacos with rice and beans i could have done without. I literally paid for them and didn't eat them. But either way the tacos were bomb! And they have good music and we were jamming out. I cant believe i didn't know this places existed! I found my new taco Tuesday spot!

Came to have lunch with my family of 5 and was charged a gratuity which seemed much higher than the service that we received. Food was not good and took way too long. I do not recommend this place.

The veggie burritos are the best! The flavors all combine to make a delicious burrito.

I happened upon this place while buying time until I had to begin my parent-teacher conferences on a Monday night. I really didn't want to leave school at 3:45, go home, eat a quick meal only to turn around 1 1/2 hours later. I wanted something quick, but not McDonald's quick. Tomatillo Mexican Grill fit the bill. For a small, nondescript place their menu is expansive. There was nobody here at 5:30 pm except for the two workers speaking rapid Spanish to each other. Choices include about fifteen specialty items, chicken entrees, burritos and quesadillas. Other dining options include Salvadorian specialties such as four different kinds of pupusas for $2.20 each. Being the unadventurous diner named Libby F that I am, I opted for a cheese quesadilla ($6.15). It was the cheesiest quesadilla I have ever had! It had no other ingredients in it, but dressed up with the sides of guacamole, sour cream and pico de gallo, it was perfection. The pico de gallo (which I prefer over salsa) was fresh and flavorful. The combined flavors made for a tasty and filling meal. Highly recommend if you're in the area, but don't make a special trip.

I've come to Tomatillo Mexican twice; once for fajitas and once for a burrito and pupusas. If you're looking for a no frills and high quality food, this is it. For the fajitas, the peppers and onions were cooked well without being soggy; for the burrito the rice, beans, and salsa were super flavorful; the meats are moist and well seasoned across the board. I will be back soon!

Tomatillo is a small family owned restaurant. It's near the Twinbrook Library. I've gone there several times with my family to eat. Their Salvadorian Pupusas are delicious. So are their steak Tacos and their Burritos. Other favorite dishes include their Mixed Fajitas or their Quesadillas. They also sell beer if you want to have a cold one. From what I know, they also do delivery to near by areas. They work with Door Dash and Grub Hub. You also have to try their Horchata. Its delicious.

HORRIBLE!! My wife and I are from Southern California where Mexican food is on point and the Mexican border is only about 20 minutes away. So when I say this is the worst Mexican food I've had in my life. I mean it. When I order a "Carne asada" burrito i expect grilled beef -which is the literal definition of carne asada- Not boiled, shredded beef. I'm honestly surprised I saw any beef in the burrito at all. A Victoria's Secret model has more meat on her than that burrito did. If I wanted a boiled beef burrito I could probably match what they made with just a microwave. If you're just hungry and don't care how something tastes then this is the perfect spot for you.
