PROS Seems to be a genuine neighborhood place. Overhead several regulars praising the restaurant, though couldn't quite figure out why. Plenty of 30 and 40 somethings hanging out. More families than singles. The wait on Saturday night was about 20 minutes and the restaurant had good energy. Service was good. CONS Margaritas -- The small Margarita ($7) is quite large... more

This is without a doubt my favorite restaurant in Alexandria. I've been going to Los Tios since they opened (with only 6 or so tables!), and have loved every minute of my time there. The staff is so friendly and wonderful, especially the owner, Herman. The drinks are awesome and BIG. The food is amazing. I personally love their pupusas,... more
