Say ‘Hola’ to These NoVA Mexican Restaurants
July 7, 2023 | Northern Virginia Magazine, Alice Levitt—The star attraction at this Alexandria spot is tacos al pastor, carved from the rotating trompo. The meat and pineapple are stuffed into corn tortillas made in-house every day. But not everything is a craft representation of the best of Mexico City. We also like to save room for a Sonoran hot dog, wrapped in bacon and bathed in charro beans, pickled onions and jalapeños, and habanero mayonnaise.
