Welcome To El-Charro Mexicano

Like the mobile missile launchers of Desert Strike for Sega Genesis, El-Charro Mexicano is a force on wheels.

The truck appears only on weekends between on Columbia Road in Washington DC's Adams Morgan, between 16th and 17th (Map). The menu claims an extensive selection of dishes, but it is a lie: they only have tacos.

That's ok, the tacos are pretty delicious. All food is served "to-go" but many patrons congregate outside the El-Charro Mexicano to eat, undisturbed by the lack of seating.

For a comprehensive list of other taco truck reviews (especially in LA), check out Bandini's Taco Hunt.
