   My friend and I had a wonderful time celebrating her birthday. We went on a Friday at lunch time so it was quiet but I’m sure it’s quite happening for dinner and after dinner fun. The restaurant is really cute. Especially loved the upstairs lounge area. I look forward to coming back for dinner with the family or my husband for date night.

   We very much enjoyed Ometeo on a very busy night. The food is absolutely delicious and the drinks are great. I was especially impressed that one of the managers even came by to check in on us. Those little details just mean so much.

   Food was great and good portions. Parking is a bit of a chore, but you get 2 hours free.

   Service was good, staff friendly. The food is ok, but not particularly memorable. This was my second visit. Most likely will not return.

   We dined at Ometeo for the first time and really enjoyed our experience. The menu is innovative and contemporary, and I can't wait to try almost everything! The food was excellent, but the service truly stood out! The staff was exceptionally attentive—friendly, eager to help, patient, and detail-oriented. The chicken enchiladas were delicious, and the steak tacos were a highlight, overflowing with generous portions of steak. We would love to see thinner, lighter chips to accompany the guacamole, queso fundido, and fantastic salsas. Do note that the noise level can be quite high due to the restaurant's popularity. We were informed it’s quieter between 2:00 and 4:00 PM. We’re excited to return and explore more of the delightful menu!

   Hola Rene! Thank you for taking the time to share your review and of course thrilled that you had a 5 star experience with us. Especially pleased to hear that the service made such an impression. We pride ourselves on our service and hospitality, so is very rewarding to hear that was your experience. We will definitely share your review with the team- feedback like that makes their day! Regarding the noise, we know we can get a bit lively, especially around the bar area where you were seated, but we do also have plenty of quieter cozy corners so have noted on your reservation profile that that is your preference so even during dinner time we can certainly find you a nice quiet spot whenever you want to dine with us again. Do hope you can join us again soon!

   The gree chicken enchiladas and pineapple aguachile were amazing. Very good margaritas and queso. The S’mores dessert was quite a show. We sat in the bar section and the noise level was moderate but it seemed like an average night. Would easily go back again.

    Ometeo is a real gem amongst the dining options in the Tysons area, and NOVA in general. The menu is superb, the drinks are authentic to the TexMex cuisine, and the service is second to none. Fortunate to work for Capital One at the McLean campus, where I have ready access to all the amazing dining options that are right there - Ometeo, Sisters Thai, Stellina, and the Starr Hill Brew Pub.
