Mixtec Restaurant Review:
Sometimes gruff and unfriendly, the staff are the least of the reasons you come to this budget-priced place, where the Tex-Mex fare is the real draw. The scene is set by the strains of Mexican music that filter out from somewhere and the color food photos on the wall. Start with their queso fundido, accompanied by a mug of hot Mexican chocolate, then opt for the Mexican submarine sandwiches...
This cheerful Adams-Morgan spot attracts a clientele of neighborhood folks, D.C. chefs, and Hispanics from all over, every one of whom appreciate the delicious authenticity of the regional Mexican cuisine. The kitchen is open, the dining room colorfully decorated, and the taped Mexican music lively.
