Do the easy things right, and the rest will come. Had this place recommended to me by some friends and ended up in the neighborhood so I had to try it for myself.
Menu was so large, I had decision paralysis so I just went with what I heard was good. That ended up being two pork pupusas and a chicken tamale. Which only ended up being about $9 plus the beer I ordered to compensate for the hot summer evening. It was a ton of food for only a few bucks.
Salsa was decent but not the best I’ve had in DC. Pupusas were savory and fresh. Tamale was sneaky good and super filling.
Doesn’t hurt to speak some Spanish here. Mine was really rusty but seemed pretty well received as I can be nervous to use it around town.
I checked this place out this past weekend for the first time. I had the trio tacos. They were amazing. The drinks were strong. The servers took care of us before we could even get comfortable. Im going back first chance i get.
So my first time here with my friend the food was good the drinks were even better. Definitely will be returning
Another neighborhood staple of Barracks Row for years. Their food hasn't changed over the years. It's consistently a good choice for your fix. The cozy atmosphere and good service and pretty good drink specials draw people in from all over. Give them a try. The portions are pretty large too.
This was a quick trip from the office for lunch... the staff was friendly, and the food was delicious! I ordered the shrimp, chicken and steak tacos. It came with one of each, the shrimp were juicy and the steak was tasty... the chicken was a bit dry... once we put the sour cream, guacamole, and the lime crema inside, it was better. We had 2 jarittos each and our lunch was under $50. I would definitely return.

The BEST restaurant experience we’ve had in a while. The food is amazing. The service was on point. And for the price ?? We couldn’t believe the find we made in this place! Wouldn’t be surprised if they need a bigger space soon. Food Network should visit this spot. It’s legit. The papusas are muy muy rico. Sooo good! The plantains, the rice, beans , the tamales, wow. And the margaritas!!! They were really good. Their happy hour is 3-6 every day! Great price for the margaritas and they were made well. The service was exceptional. Very attentive and kind. Felt like we were visiting a family’s restaurant. It’s small and tight inside but they can fit a surprising amount of people by smart table arranging and even though you may be seated fairly close to another table the food and service was so good I didn’t mind that small issue one bit. This is a gem. Comida de El Salvador and your traditional Latin American dishes. Looks like in warmer weather they have a really cute outdoor eating space with lights. Can’t wait to go back here next time! Gracias todo at Las Placitas for a great time!
sizzling fajitas well seasoned and tender. the house margarita hits hard. The popusas are great appetizer. I'm from Texas and this food competes very well with tex mex food. the guac is awesome. Highly recommend the food and drinks. will try to other margaritas. Service is fast and very attentive. Highly recommend.
Came in at 3pm. Ladies were warm and welcoming. Atmosphere is just right. Jose’s Special was 11/10 presentation portion quality and flavor.
I was treated like a king there. Owners and staff were extremely attentive. Food was great. I recommend you try their legendary Sopa de Mariscos!
This place was so cute and friendly! The food was outstanding! I had pupusas and guacamole plus a margarita and everything was delicious! I would most definitely recommend, they have a variety of food on their menu and I definitely will be coming back again!
