Kids and I stopped for Sunday brunch at Lauriol Plaza in the Dupont neighborhood of Washington, D.C.

Steak and eggs for me - a 4 ounce filet mignon and two fried eggs with O'Brien potatoes and a fruit garnish; French Toast for my twins - 4 slices of French bread served with maple syrup and fruit garnish; and an American breakfast for my oldest daughter - two eggs and bacon served with O'Brien potatoes and a fruit garnish. Orange juice, coffee, and water as our beverage. Tortilla chips and salsa served prior to the meal.

Vilma was our server - she was friendly and polite, but a bit hurried as the restaurant was very busy. A pretty popular place.

Food was cooked exactly to order and was very tasty. Kids had no complaint and even complimented on how fresh the fruit was. Vilma stopped at the table a couple of times to refill our empty water glasses and to inquire whether everything was okay.

Restaurant was clean, although the restroom could use a bit of attention. Valet parking - which we took advantage of - is available. I thought the price was a bit high for Sunday parking, but my main complaint would relate more to double parking. I'm not a fan of having my vehicle parked in a traffic lane.

$59.64 for breakfast, plus server tip, plus valet parking, plus valet tip. I debated my rating review, but there are more positives that negatives at Lauriol Plaza.

Best Mexican around NW DC

I've been a loyal customer for several years. They are known for mexican food and their frozen margaritas, and of course they make them on the rocks too. Most people go in groups and order pitchers, although I've gone alone and gotten take out on occasion. They do have excellent food too. I love the big monterey salad, it's huge. They also have excellent salmon, and they make very good enchilladas and tacos of course. It's all good. Just gotta watch your bean intake. he he

We have the most diversified clientele, who has a true passion for Mexican, International, Latin American food. This is the spot to see and be seen in the Nation’s Capital and, although, we are a large restaurant, in essence, we still remain the small neighborhood restaurant we once were back in the old days.
