Actually, now that I think about, I think Dominos has an edge on Armand's.

Went to La Lomita across from the Potomac Ave. Metro two Sundays ago and
had an excellent chicken, beef and shrimp fajita.  (They make big
margaritas.) I highly recommend the place.  I've got to check out La
Placitas.  Anyone been to the Thai/Mexican place down the street lately? 
Also what's really good on Penn from second to 4th and how about 7th across
from Eastern Market?

Why did Julios close?  I thought they had plenty of business!?
