Quick Lunch: District Taco

Yesterday afternoon my husband and I were looking for a quick and easy lunch in Capitol Hill.  

As former Texans we have a very special place in our heart for tacos, so naturally, District Taco caught our eye.

The Food: Grab & Go Mexican Basics 

The Menu consists mostly of tacos (obviously), burritos, and quesadillas. They also offer breakfast tacos and heuvos rancheros - which we will definitely be going back for on the weekend. 

District Taco offers a great salsa bar which includes freshly chopped cilantro, jalapenos, and onions to spice up your meal, if you are feeling saucy that day.  

We ordered the Fish Tacos (amazeballs - but only available certain days of the week), Al Pastor (very good), and the Carne Asada (which was basically just the meat, you would need to pump this one up at the salsa bar to make it great).  

The Space: Casual & Creative

With bright, bold colors against reclaimed wood features and exposed brick walls, this place has a contemporary but warm vibe. 

There are a variety of seating options with low and high top tables, counters along the window facing Penn Ave, and booths.  I found the recycled plastic crates that were converted into light fixtures to be very cool and innovative.  

Grab a quick bite at District Taco if you are looking for something fresh, flavorful, and inexpensive.
