Gringos & Mariachis

Authentic Mexican street fare specializing in street tacos, tequila, mezcal and whiskey.

Went for lunch.EXCELLENT golden margaritas! EXCELLENT duck tacos! EXCELLENT salsa! Awful tortilla chips. Thick, more like crackers. No flavor, no detectable salt. My husband had the Torta de Chicken (sic)Milanese and was rather disappointed. Huge, thick, white bread bun encasing some pretty good fillings, served with a giant side of French fries. Way too much carb. Blood glucose sugar express!!!Service was excellent across the board, will definitely be back.

We visited Bethesda and found Gringos & Mariachis to be very authentic Mexican food. The Staff was also quite friendly & quick. We will return again. Besides the food, they have quite a list of creative & unique drinks. We asked for some adjustments to some drinks, like replacing tequila for mezcal, and they gladly accommodated our requests. Net, very worthy experience.
