" After hearing so much about Mission Dupont Circle, I decided to give it a try last week. The ambiance did not disappoint; it felt warm and lively, and the decor was charming. I opted for the shrimp tacos, which were really fresh and combined well with their zesty sauce. I also loved their guacamole, which was creamy and seasoned just right. However, the service was quite slow, and we had to remind our server for some drink refills. I'd come back for the food but hope the service improves. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Mission Dupont Circle was delightful! My friends and I visited for the first time, and the atmosphere was buzzing with excitement. We shared a few pitchers of margaritas, which were fantastic, and I had the beef birria tacos, which were packed with flavor! Our server was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. I intend to bring more friends next time and absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a good time. " (*Curated Review*)

" We visited Mission Dupont Circle for dinner and were delighted by the friendly atmosphere and excellent service. We were seated quickly even though it was packed. I enjoyed their chipotle chicken tacos, which were flavorful and well-spiced. Though my friends weren’t as thrilled with their burritos, they appreciated the quick service. I would recommend this spot for a casual dining experience with friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved my experience at Mission Dupont Circle! The margaritas were so refreshing, and the food was excellent. I tried the fish tacos, which were made to perfection. They had a great seating area outside that’s perfect for summer days. The manager was also very friendly and checked in on our table, which made the experience even better. I can’t wait to return and try more of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I thought the drinks at Mission Dupont were the highlight of the evening. The margaritas were well-balanced and tasty. I enjoyed their nachos, though some of my friends thought the food was just okay. The service was a bit chaotic due to the crowd, but the staff was friendly. The location is great, and I think I would visit again just for the drinks! " (*Curated Review*)

" I didn't know what to expect from Mission Dupont, but it turned out to be a delightful experience! The vibrant decor immediately made me feel at ease, and I loved the variety of drinks available. We opted for the taco platter, and each variety brought something unique to the table. The beef birria tacos stood out for their rich taste. The service was friendly, although it got a bit slow as the restaurant started to fill up, but that’s to be expected on a busy night. Overall, this place is worth visiting again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Celebrating my best friend's birthday at Mission Dupont Circle was such a fantastic idea! We were seated promptly, and the ambiance was perfect for a celebration. I highly recommend trying their margarita pitchers—they are the ultimate crowd-pleaser! The nachos were massive and shared among the table easily. Something that stood out was their churros; they were crispy and perfectly sweet. Every bite was enjoyable, and the staff went out of their way to make us feel special. This will definitely be our go-to spot for future gatherings! " (*Curated Review*)
