Love this little place! The guacamole and chips are the way to start every meal. Or have this with some margaritas for your meal. The serving is ample and perfectly seasoned. Notice that every table orders guacamole? It's no wonder why. Also, the street tacos, available with chicken, steak, shrimp or fish, are right on the mark. In fact, the... More

If you've lived anywhere with a strong Mexican community or culture, you'll know that DC is a hard place to find authentic mexican flavors. Alegria exceeded every expectation we had when we tried this restaurant last month. Flavorful salsa and gauc sold us before we even received our entrees. We had to wait about 30 minutes, but the margaritas were... More

Elevated Mexican cuisine - a welcome addition to Vienna providing diners with a much appreciated departure from the typical Mex fare. Margaritas were well balanced and exotic fruit juice bases were wonderful - blood orange was quite nice. Guacamole was fresh and tasty. Tacos were yummy. Stick with beef and portobello options - clear winners at our table. Shrimp and... More

This new addition to Vienna is a cozy restaurant owned by the same folks who run Bazin's next door. This means the food is good, alot of thought is given to presentation and decor, and that its a little pricey. Many reviews says its very loud, but my wife and I dined there on a recent Sat night and its... More

So far, we've only had drinks at Alegria, but the bartender absolutely loves coming up with the unusual. Tell him what you like, and he'll make you a drink that's even better. We hear the food is "to die for", and can't wait to give it a try.

We found this place accidentally as we were on our way to Church Street Pizza. The smell wafting into the street was so good that we came back the next weekend to give it a try. It was a busy Friday night, but we were seated immediately and our server was prompt and friendly. The noise level is a little... More

Chips and Salsa amazing - Guac amazing, short Rib enchilada to die for, qeuso fundido con chorizo - ummmmm - I love this place. Add the delicious margheritas by GREAT bartender and you have the perfect easy night out. The menu is simple and delicious!

Ok ... after one visit I now think this is my favorite "mexican" place within our normal driving range for dinner away from home! We read a review that helped our mind set regarding what to expect, and Alegria met or exceeded the expectations. I labeled this "mexican" because most of menus is based on typical mexican/tex-mex items, spices, and... More

If you are looking for a great Mexican restaurant where the food is fresh and delicious, you have found it! My wife and I joined another couple for an impromptu visit on a Friday evening and we were delighted. They don't take reservations and were told when we arrived, a table for 4 would be 40 minutes wait but that... More
