A neighborhood taverna on Glebe Road

Pupusas pressed by hand, gyros turning over flame, seafood from the coast, and a wood-fired oven glowing till late. One little corner of Alexandria — every flavor of El Salvador, the Mediterranean and beyond.

The Taverna

Three coasts,
one family table

Taso's isn't built around a single country — it's built around a feeling. The kind of place where the gyro spit turns next to a wood-fired oven, where the soup of the day might be Salvadoran sopa de marisco, and where the regulars get a nod before they reach the counter.

We cook the food we grew up loving: hand-made pupusas and Salvadoran plates, Greek classics off the flame, Mediterranean mezze, plus honest American subs and wood-fired pizza for the after-school and after-work crowd. Nothing precious. Everything made to order.

Pull up a chair on West Glebe Road. On Friday and Saturday the kitchen stays lit until nearly two in the morning — so the table's always open a little longer than you'd expect.

Off the flame

Gyro and souvlaki carved fresh, charbroiled chicken, and a wood-fired oven that gives every pizza its blistered, smoky edge.

Pressed by hand

Pupusas revueltas, de queso, de arroz — patted out to order. The neighborhood favorite, and the dish diners come back for.

From the coast

Camarones al ajillo, mojarra frita, lobster & seafood soups — the kind of plates that put the Mediterranean and the Gulf on the same menu.
