Excellent food, great prices, beautiful location, and friendly staff that went above and beyond in helping me find my girlfriend’s mom’s lost gold earrings! I love this place and these people. 10/10

I used to enjoy this restaurant for its quality and generous portions. After years, I ordered takeout and was very disappointed. The food lacked flavor, portions were extremely small for the price ($30+per meal), and several items were poorly prepared. The salmon was tasteless, shrimp portions were minimal, and the chicken tacos were steamed instead of grilled with very small portions. Overall, the value did not match the cost. I would not recommend this restaurant given the price and experience.

The dining space itself is impressive and enjoyable, buzzing with energy. We tried the shrimp special, which was outstanding. The guac and warm salsa with chips was a pleasant surprise. I didn’t have one, but I heard from my guests the margs are outstanding. I’d definitely come back.

We ate lunch here with friends that we had not seen in a long time. We ate on the outdoor patio and were seated immediately. The staff was courteous and very attentive. We sat and visited for a long time and were never rushed to leave. The food was fresh and delicious. The inside of the restaurant is huge with multi floors and a lot of seating options. I'm sure that I will be coming back to Lauriol Plaza on my next visit to DC.
