About this venue

Editor's Take: El Chucho is a neighborhood staple known for its unpretentious vibe and high-quality Mexican street food. Their frozen margaritas are legendary, and the rooftop deck is the place to be in summer.

Cocina Superior! We focus on the best tacos in Columbia Heights, a massive tequila selection, and a happy hour that has kept the neighborhood coming back for years.
