I came here a couple of years ago and the brunch was pretty decent. This time it was horrendous. They offer a buffet now and changed the previous menu. Everything at the buffet looked dry and nothing on the menu was appetizing. So, we opted to do bottomless margs. The bottomless margs were tasty, but flavor options were limited to watermelon, mango and regular. So we rotated between the 3 flavors & they were strong. The decor here is beautiful and the dj played the jams. But to be honest this place was empty. Probably because the menu was severely lacking. My friend ordered the trio (guac, salsa and cheese dip) and it’s was ok. For 3 bottomless drinks, a trio and a round of shots cost $283. They are very overpriced. They add a mandatory 20% gratuity to your total. Our server was amazin

Excequiel was amazing. we love him so much. New to DC and he made us feel right at home. Tequila shots, lamb birria tacos, and amazing vibes. Come here for Excequiel alone and you'll be happy.

El techo was absolutely amazing. Could not recommend more. We got there when they first opened and the atmosphere was still insanely good. Food, service, atmosphere, drinks, AMAZING. Louis (the owner) greeted us and interacted with every customer there. He was awesome. If you’re looking for brunch/good drinks/food or just a good time, GO TO EL TECHO!!

I was trying to book a holiday party in DC in October… for my company. So i already knew I was in trouble. Louie was fantastic. He was very responsive and helped work out a great menu that worked with our budget. The space was beautiful, the team loved the food and the staff was stellar. I’ve already heard that it was the best holiday party venue we’ve ever done. 10/10 not a thing we’d change. Thank you El Techo!
