What our guests are saying

Nice place to hang n have drinks n food. Food is ok, but food trucks sell better. went on Friday night for live band. very little space to dance, more to hear music. Happy hour drinks watered down. Regular drinks are ok. Like i said nice place to hang with group, service was great because of heavy staff.

Went here with friends for happy hour. Got tres leches, flauticas, and 3 drinks. All only $50. The portions were generous, the drinks were NOT watered down at all, service was good. Food was yummy and delicious. The patio next to unos is really nice and relaxing and spacious. One of my new favorite happy hour spots for sure!

This family-owned Tex-Mex restaurant has several locations, including this one in Falls Church near Mosaic District. The food is high quality and generously portioned at all locations, showcasing authentic Tex-Mex flavors. The cheese and shrimp quesadillas were delicious, and the guacamole was satisfying. The crispy ceviche had a fantastic crunch from the toasted corn, adding extra texture. With Mexican music playing, excellent service, and a great ambiance, it was a perfect dining experience.
