La Frontera (Closed Permanently)

(2 Ratings)
Order Margaritas and watch the people pass
Like many eateries along the gay 17th Street area, the food here is rather ordinary. But order a pitcher of Margaritas on the deck overlooking the street, and it's transformed into one the best places in town, no matter how ordinary the burrito.

Gay? Mexican?!

This place is as gay as Anne Heche and as Mexican as Panera Bread. It's gay by location and Mexican by name. The menu is small, the drinks are weak, and the "Mexican" food is surprisingly bland. Go elsewhere, trust me.

Good Mexican food

La Frontera is right in the center of the gay commercial area of DuPont Circle on 17th street. It offers Mexican food at a good value for the money. There is an outdoor patio in the front which will give you a good view of all the comings and goings in the area.
