5 stars vs expectations. Had to eat and kill time before a meeting and found this spot as I approached. Recent reviews were good but others were mixed. Food was tasty, cheap and plentiful. Yes, the server spoke broken English... but she spoke Spanish really well. Duhhh.
I’ve been looking for a good authentic Mexican restaurant in Maryland for years. This by far has been the best I’ve found. Loved the carne asada tacos! The drinks were great and the service was awesome. I wouldn’t have expected that when I first walked in. Glad I stayed. Will be back!
I'm glad I discovered this restaurant! I stopped by on Wednesday night for dinner. Easy parking. Staff was very friendly. And I had a great chicken dish. There aren't many restaurants in this area and this one was great.
Went early afternoon, we were the only patrons. I asked for Carne asada-i thought it'd be a piece of skirt steak. It wasn't. My friend order a chicken burrito and it looked slightly like an enchilada but still tasty. The highlight was the Margarita. Typically not my drink if choice but was excellent. Not too strong but not too bitter or sweet. Definitely worth a shot if you're driving by like we were.
