The only spot on the list that’s open 24/7 is the Surfside taco stand in Dupont. It offers a reduced late-night menu past 11 p.m., but that might be a blessing — decision paralysis only gets worse when you’re tired or under the influence. Surfside emphasizes its fresh, seaside-inspired flavors, offering burritos, tacos, quesadillas and more. The Bonaire chicken burrito was expertly stuffed with chicken, pico de gallo, lime crema, Jack cheese and yellow rice — a simple mix, but one that delivered on all fronts. Given its beachy influences, we also sampled the Nevis shrimp tacos. The generous portion sizes are a theme here, with the tacos overflowing with shrimp, rice, salsa, guacamole and crema. The shrimp was juicy and tender, complemented by the bright flavors in the salsa and guacamole. In short, we’re glad to know this is an option available to us any hour of the day. Open 24/7. surfsidedc.com.
