Three brothers and a brother-in-law from El Salvador realized their long-held dream of opening a restaurant together in November of last year. Jaime Sorto, his brothers Hugo and Jose Bonilla, and his brother-in-law Jose Zelaya looked for a name that symbolizes their concept of two cultures coming together.They chose La Malinche, the name given to a historical figure who has been at the center of controversy for centuries. The noble Mexican woman was enslaved and given to Hernán Cortés, a Spanish conquistador. She became his interpreter and confidante. Their son was viewed as the first mestizo, a child of mixed blood.Many Mexicans consider La Malinche or Doña Marina to have been a traitor, but today, she is also honored as the symbolic mother of the country’s mixed-race people.At La Malinche, all of the starters, vegetables, meats and seafood are served as Spanish tapas, called botanas in Mexico.

    We asked for a quiet table & were given one, which really did add to the pleasure of our evening. The service was excellent and both our meals were wonderful. In addition, we had a delicious New Zealand wine with dinner. This Clyde’s location is great: steps away from the metro & plenty of parking. The restaurant’s decor is captivating. Totally lovely evening.

    support my local DMV restaurant. When arriving the place was really nice and quaint. When ordering food and drink it took longer than expected. There wasn't a lot people in the restaurant. It took a party of 3 20/30min for breakfast food to be served. The food was okay. The churro chicken waffle was great ( It was just maybe recommended to season just the chicken only not the interior meal. the churro waffle waffle and filled favor, but it had the salty seasoning sprinkled on top with the chicken. Sweet potato pancake was a bit chewy and a bit rubbery ( I'm not sure if it was the ingredients in the batter) the stuffed French toast was a guilty pleasurable eats. Its rich.
