A look at what's going on in Trinidad, on H Street, and in the larger area north of Capitol Hill.
It seems like only a few weeks ago a friend was remarking that nothing seemed to be happening at the former home of Danny's Carryout. How wrong we were based on a little something tweeted today by Sol Mexican Grill food truck. Congrats on your new location guys! More info here.
Almost ready !!!! twitter.com/solmexicangril…

EXCELLENT. I just had their food truck tacos a few weeks back. So freaking delicious!

Sweet! Really looking forward to trying this out!

I wait is killing me.

So, in the next few months, three new taco/burrito places (Sol, Chupacabra, and Tacos Impala)are opening within a few blocks of each other?
Aye carumba, it's a mexican renaissance on H St.
Mar 20, 2013, 1:58:00 PM
1:58,
Impala is a full service cantina and restaurant. I think Sol is more like Tayor or Shawafel. Chupacabra is a taco stand with outdoor seating. Not sure of the timeline for Chupacabra. I also expect to see some Mexican items at Chicken Tortilla.
Mar 20, 2013, 2:20:00 PM
Forgot about Chicken Torilla. They closed up their Navy Yard/Barracks Row shop (permanently?) about a month ago. Their chicken was really good. Burritos and other stuff wasnt special. The place was kind of a CF. It looked like a Chipotle set up but then someone would order fries and one of the not-enough workers would have to go to the fryer and the line would stop. Or someone would order a sandwiich. Then, they'd have to ring you up...Credit card machine was slow...

Chupacabra is a Latin Kitchen and Taqueria.
Mar 20, 2013, 5:37:00 PM
well i'm always happy to see new businesses on H St.
Mar 20, 2013, 8:05:00 PM
Sounds like H St is turning into little Mexico.
Mar 21, 2013, 10:05:00 AM
Please be good. Please be good. Please be good. :)
Mar 22, 2013, 2:12:00 PM
Tacos Impala open in a few months? Sure...and the street car will be up and running this fall... :)
