Reviews for t'Kila Latin Kitchen & Bar in Lansdowne, VA
Love this restaurant, it's a go-to for us! Great tacos - we especially like the Cochinita Pibil, Chilorio Steak, and Al Pastor.... I also get the Pollo al Zarape entree which is super good. The fried plantains, guacamole, black refried beans, and cotija ricerock as well. Read more
We loved this restaurant in the past. It was originally built in Aldie and we would go there a few times a month. That location... closed down (changed owners) but I "think" this location was still being run by the same owners. I'm not so sure after our lastvisit. We went on a Friday night and there were 2 servers plus 1 bartender for the entire place. I get the staff shortage but itwas really tough on them. They forgot I mentioned it was my mom's birthday and we would like dessert but after seeing how longit took to get everything, we opted for dessert at Whole Foods instead. It took a while to get everything and we're really notpicky. Water wasn't filled unless we flagged someone down. Food was the same we're used to but the quality just wasn't the same. Read more
This is a hidden gem , the drinks were great and I absolutely loved the food ! I will definitely be going back .
By far the worst food I?ve had in recent memory. Had to toss out almost half of the $80 order. The food tasted very bland, There... were barely any meat on each of the tacos we ordered, It was pretty dry as if we were given left over meat from the previousday. When I called to speak to the manager, I tried to explain to him that I?ve ordered plenty of times before from them andthat the last couple times my food was not good, instead of apologizing he kept cutting me off shifting the blame and tellingme that this is how it?s always been. This man should clearly learn how to properly address customer complaints. Maybe theyunderwent a kitchen change or were just busy at the time but that still does not justify any of this. I highly doubt I?d begoing back there again after this! Read more
The tacos are really good. get the lengua! If you are on a date get the Molcajete for two. great presentation as well as great... flavor. I have shellfish allergy so they add more chicken and beef for me. Diego the bartender is very good ask him forsomething exotic from South America or have a conversation about Mescal. This is my favorite watering hole and I generally goevery week. Read more
Our New Go To!!! For me, expectations of a Latin restaurant are established with the salsa. If it?s pale, soupy, and lacking... lacking body, you can?t expect much more. At t?Kila, it?s deep red, thick and savory. We both had margaritas, though pricey,they were delicious. I had the Brisket Barbacoa Enchiladas and my wife had the Barbacoa Taco as well as 2 different chickentacos. All were on point, however the brisket was exceptional. The rice and black beans were terrific too. Overall, the foodwas well balanced and appropriately spiced. The meal was a symphony of beautiful Latin favors. The Sat/Sun brunch menu looksgreat as well. We can?t wait to go back! I will add pictures from our next visit. Read more
The food was great! I really liked the decorations and the overall environment! The music and the service were really cool... too. The portions are just right, they do not serve like if 3 people were going to eat from the same dish, and at least for methis is a plus. The strawberry lemonade was really good! The 'camarones a la diabla' were just awesome, not to mention thosedelicious refried black beans! The prices were reasonable. Definetly a restaurant that is now among my favorites. Read more
The food was absolutely amazing. We came in right before they closed and the owner graciously sat us and served us delicious... food with a smile. Couldn't have asked for more Read more
