I am an extremely picky eater, but their salsa is incredible. It is always fresh no matter when I order it. It is just delicious. The staff is great and always friendly as well.

It's a taco stand, open 24-7, near DuPont Circle. They do have tables, with seasonal covering, that are popular. Food is outstanding, the best tacos I have had in the area. Many items are served on bed of buttered rice that is delicious. Food ingredients are fresh and full of flavor and satisfying. Most things are made fresh, so they're able to adjust some ingredients.

Nice portion sizes and food was yummy. The chicken actually seems to be grilled and has a nice char taste to it! I feel like a lot of places call their chicken “grilled” but don’t really grill it. We also got the kids quesadilla for my son and that was good too. The horchatas had a BOGO deal so we tried that and they tasted so good. Creamy, a little sweeter than I would like but I think the average person would appreciate it lol. Would definitely try again! Seating is minimal- no more than 8 seats at most so be mindful of that during their busy times.

It was my first time at Surfside and I was not disappointed! Gracie, Carlos, and the whole team were so friendly and welcoming. The menu is broad with so many options, and I decided on the Bonaire as a bowl—it was fresh, flavorful, and a generous portion! I’ll definitely be back. Plus, they’re open 24/7, which is such a rare find for fresh, guilt-free food late at night!

The best tacos I had so far in D.C.!... Fresh and flavorful. I'm picky about tacos and prefer them to be as fresh and authentic how Mexican culture does it. Service was fast and efficient, and the gentleman at the window taking the order was kind. Off to the side, playing reggae music, giving island vibes. This is definitely a new spot for me.
