    Great, great, great place for tacos and tortas!!! When it comes to a Mexican food, I get very picky and demanding. We ordered to go, had tacos, tortas and a slice of tres leches cake. The tacos were king, did not disappoint. It came with the works (chopped onion and cilantro with a side of radish, cucumber, lime and green onion), just the way we eat it at least in Mexico city 😋 The sopes comes in a order of 3, choose your poison of meat 😄, even though stull needs some improvements, it was a good dish and great size seving. The torta... well another amazing delicuos surprise. We got al pastor (pork marinated meat). The bread was perfect and so was everything they add to it. If you really would like to know how it's done, this is the place to try an authentic Mexican torta. Only downfall was... the tres leches, I was open to the idea to be surprised but they let me down with it. I was expecting a real delicious slice and it was only a piece of cake soaked in a mix of milk and condensed milk. Not the best pice I have tried, but will definitely come back to get some more tacos and tortas.

    Good service, delicious food, fresh ingredients. Everything could use a little more seasoning but overall a very authentic Mexican meal, well worth the price. Nice quiet location as well. The mixed fajita tasted very fresh, with tender meats. Menudo soup was very tasty and slightly spicy as it should be. Even the chicken fingers with fries for our daughter were delicious. Give it a try.

    The worse chimichanga I have ever tasted. It is supposed to be deep fried. My meat was still alive, via blood! The wrap was wet and doughy! Just plain yuk! Never ever again.

    Definitely authentic, pretty good, but a bit too pricey for the amount of food you get.

    Delicious food, well-seasoned and not too oily. Tacos came with two shells each, and the beef taco was particularly tasty. Fries were hot, fresh, and plump. Excellent Salsa!

    This little spot is perfect for anyone in the BWI, Linthicum area. Two minutes from the hotels, plenty of parking, extremely fast service & incredible food 👌 I've randomly picked up carryout countless times over the years and they never miss 🌮 Tip them well if you can, they deserve it 💛

    The food was amazing!!! I felt for a minute I was back eating where I was raised. We got the Lengua burrito bowl, and Lengua can be really good or really bad depending where you go, here was fantastic, juicy and full of flavor, we got a couple tacos, tostadas and a quesadilla, every was very delicious. Service was really good. What made me happier was that when you order a fruit juice or horchata they bring a whole jar, one of the best places I’ve eaten.

    There were 3 TV's on and one was blasting. I asked the owner if he could either turn it off or at least lower the volume. He said others were watching which was fair, however he wouldn't even lower it. Plus it was obvious he didn't care as when the patrons watching the TV left, and there was no one in the restaurant but us, he kept it on. He previously told me he liked watching TV. Further, the portions were small, and they charged & $5.30 for a side of south cream and pico de Gallo I do not recommend this establishment.

    It was a horrible experiencei would never suggest anybody eat here. I walked in the lady was eating with her family in the front and actually what did I want by her family. Then I ordered the food we ordered a burrito. In some tacos, it was hardly any meat in the burrito. And I paid almost $30 for it. The man sneezes around the food while he was making it and I asked him to watch his hands when they got upset because after the washer's hand.

    We got food for take out when we were here on a soccer tournament. Very close to our hotel which was convenient. I got a chicken quesadilla and my hubby got a cemita Cubana. We both got aguas frescas, horchata and piña. My quesadilla was good and simple. The corn tortilla was handmade which in my opinion makes it more authentic and delicious. My hubby enjoyed his cemita, fresh and very big. We will always say we have never had anything close to when we were in mexico but this sure takes our cravings away. I would definitely recommend the aguas frescas were also great a little sweet for me but I tend to not do sweet a lot. Definitely wont be disappointed if you are in the area and looking for some good authentic mexican food.

    This is a nice little taco joint. Great place for a quick lunch time stop for tacos. The portions are generous. There is not a ton of seating. If you are looking to eat there look for less busy times. I really enjoyed the El Pastor tacos. Seems fairly authentic.

    After working in the area for several months I've ended up getting lunch here at least once a week. The food and service have always been great. The prices are comparable to anything else in the area

    We had such a good dinner here! Service was super friendly and food was delicious. We got chips and guacamole - chips were homemade and guac was great. I got the tacos, highly recommend the chorizo (though all were good). We also got the enchiladas which were tasty. Highly recommend! We will definitely be back.

    Tasty authentic Mexican food. Minutes from BWI airport, stopped here for a late dinner after my flight and ordered Tacos Al Pastor and guacamole. Definitely worth checking out.

  • 4/5 Drury O. 6 years ago on Google
    The food was some of the most authentic Mexican food I've had in Maryland. I really enjoyed the enchiladas and tacos. Their selection of Mexican sodas was also really good--including pineapple soda, yum!

  • 5/5 Georgiana L. 1 year ago on Google
    We love the tacos here. Everything I have tried is tasty. And it's right next to a bakery! Bonus!

  • 5/5 Angela L. 1 year ago on Google
    Authentic Mexican food and Mexican restaurant. So delicious. Came here to grab some quick lunch and I’m so happy the food didn’t disappoint. The horchata and agua de Jamaica juices were huge!

    Foods good. You have to go to the counter to order (no one told me) so I sat there for a while till waitress/ cook came out and told me. Food was good, not like would have liked it but better than expected , if that makes sense. It is a good atmosphere, customers in and out are polite and cool. Waitress was cut dry...order , here's your food , you eat and put up your tray throw your trash when your done , pay at the counter. ... technically a wham bam thank you mam. But I did go to try out the local authentic vibe...and not looking for a girlfriend , so I guess it was all good. Lol. But yeahbdont expect a table top conversation. They about business. Lol! But if you're in the area and hungry, its one store made tortilla away from authentic food. I may stop in for round two, if theres isn't another option.
