Shelly A.

service was very quick ordered walking taco and tres leches 10/10. we will be back !

Carne Asada Taco
Fabian M.

Standard decent taco place. Prices are more expensive than what you can get down in Moco. Kids meals are free - all the time and no catch. Service was friendly at the counter. You order via iPad. Not much seating inside so definitely a takeout place mostly. Parking was easy. Carne asada was good. Shell was more on the crispier side. Will try the birria next time.

One of my favorite local taco shops that was known for its authentic delicious flavors and large portions. I always felt full after ordering a Taco Birria Combo, but left sorely dissapointed this time around. There was almost half as much meat in the tacos then the way it used to be. It's half as much as pictured in the menu as well. It still tasted amazing, but left me wanting more and slightly ripped off.

Churros

This place is amazing! The inside is a little plain, but I love the hanging plants from the ceiling. It wasn't too loud, soft music playing in the background. You order your food at the kiosk and then it is ready within five minutes. We got two different tacos, chips, and salsa, and churros. The churros didn't come with any dipping sauce on the side and after we ate our tacos we moved to the churros, they were pretty hard but good. They had a few seats inside and a few tables outside on the patio. I definitely recommend and will be going back. The chips and salsa were really salty.

3x Birria Tacos w/ Consommé

Had tacos from big papis a little over a month ago. Place looked new, very clean and organized. Had the birria tacos and of course absolutely delicious. Service was great as I ordered the food for take out and was ready on time.

Birra grill cheese and fries

Wonderful service! Food was bomb!! The burrs was very flavorful. Fries were crunchy and seasoned well We will be back.

I found this spot on TikTok and added it to my list of places to try/review. Luckily we had family in town from Hawaii so we decided to treat ourselves. Location: The location is in an Industrial Park setting off in the cut a bit. They have limited seating and one table outdoors. The inside is lit with good lighting and green lights that shine on the plants to enhance the atmosphere. It's an open floor plan with two bench tables inside. Most people order and wait in their car or inside. You have the option to order on the tablet and if you enter your information you'll be notified via text when your order is ready. It also had pictures next to each item so you'll know what you're ordering. They had music playing as well with a green plant photo wall. Service: Service was good, they were welcoming and answered my questions. There was even an accident that happened where my churros container fell on the floor from the counter as they were packing an order. They promptly replaced them without me having to mention it. They even took our trash and put it in the other trash can while they were replacing the other bag. They cook our food made to order and it took a little while because this place is busy but that just means it's really good food so we were prepared for this. Food: The food here was excellent. 9 outta 10 easy. We all got something different. From the tacos, to the Birria taco pizza, to the corn to the ramen, yes ramen at the taco spot! Everyone loved their dishes. One described it as receiving a "warm hug" and the meat was tender and flavorful. We also got their juices which were refreshing but a bit sweet and finished our visit with delicious churros with caramel and powered sugar. We got different types of tacos from chicken to steak and all were on point. You can see the chef cooking up live in the corner on the stove all the cheesy goodness. Corn could use more cheese one said. SupaFlyITGuy approved Overall rating 9/10 this place is nice, seating is limited though and best to order ahead.

Elote with no seasoning and no cheese, just mayo....

So I tried Big Papi's for the first time today. I had a big order consisting of birria tacos, a fish taco, shrimp taco, elote on the cob, salsa, guacamole and chips. The only thing good was the birria tacos and fish taco. The shrimp taco had no real seasoning. The salsa had no seasoning, its tasted like store bought along with the so called homemade guacamole. Oh and the tortilla chips were stale so they got put in the trash. The biggest disappointment was the elote. My elote looked nothing like the picture on their website. No cheese, no chili powder or tajin just mayo (I'm attaching the pic) smh. We spent over $40 for food that we didn't enjoy. I will never order from here again. Save your money and go to Fajita Grande, Plaza Mexico or even the Mexican spot in the mall outside of JCPenny is better than this spot.

Couldn't resist trying their large birria quesadilla, which was the size of a pizza, after the delicious pics posted on IG. I was in Frederick at the time and decided to stop by to order one, as well as their birria nachos. It didn't take long for my order to be ready and the food was pretty delicious. It was enough to feed the 4 of us. Keep in mind that Big Papis isn't a sit down spot. You can order ahead or in store and the wait isn't long for your food. It's a must try if you're in the area.

Great, every single time we go. Wait times vary depending on day and time, but when ordered ahead online, you can just grab and go.

Best pupusas in the area! Service is great too!…read moreUnfortunately the beans and plantain portions are incredibly small. So if you are only getting pupusas, this is the spot !!!

This a new little unassuming restaurant that opened right outside Fort Detrick and we finally tried…read moreit tonight. I cannot say how happy we did. Got there at 5ish, and had a few patrons and kinda quiet. Very clean, music playing. The staff were SO FRIENDLY! They let me sample the tamarind drink = yummy. We ordered CARNE DESILADA CON HUEVO with French bread vs tortilla, I had the TACOS DE LENGUA and a TAMALES DE POLLO. Every bite was amazing for us both! I gotta say I have judged restaurants solely for their tamales alone, and this is literally one of the best I have ever had. It was huge with a giant tender piece of chicken in it, with a potato, tomato and chickpeas in it! Very unique but the taste...goodness. I want to go back now for another but I am FULL. The Lengua street tacos were on point, delicious. My husband's breakfast dish was fantastic he said, just enough. And he was SO HAPPY he chose the French bread, because apparently that was delicious. He wouldn't let me taste it, it was so good! We wanted to try the BUDIN (Salvadoran-style banana bread pudding) but they were sold out, likely because it was super delicious as well! Next time... Needless to say, we will be back and I'm going to brag to my office mates about this place. Please, try them out!
