Xochitl Menu and Prices

4.2 (70 reviews)33 menu items · 5 categoriesUpdated June 6, 2026

Xochitl (pronounced a bit like "Sochil") is open in Washington, D.C., and specializes in Mexican food, but with a touch of neo-Latin-style-not a traditional taco shop, but more like a move up the familiar Mexican flavor. The restaurant is brightly colored, and the menu allows you to order beautiful cocktails and exquisite entrees. It is suitable for occasions when you want to invite friends to something different and don't want to be too formal.
