Friends treated us to dinner and they let me pick the place. I asked, "do you guys have any taco…read moreplaces except taco bell?" Boatloads of people enjoy taco bell but I've become a snob over the years. I'd much rather have a street taco or something made by someone who isn't slopping ingredients around a kitchen that has more cheese on the floor than linoleum. My friend consulted the internet and came up with el Pilar, which turned out to be a total homerun. I got a chicken burrito bowl and ate on it for three wonderful days. The house made tortilla chips are probably the best I've ever encountered. And the side order of guacamole was heaven. Jeremy had some kind of shrimp and beef nachos with a creamy pinkish sauce that were out of this world. Other food was consumed and all of it a taste sensation... I was just too busy in my own burrito bowl space to pay much attention. I'm pretty sure the meal won us all over to el pilar!

My favorite meal is the chicken flautas with double rice and my husband gets the combination plate with rice and beans. His plate comes with steak, chicken, shrimp, peppers, onions, salad and tortillas. The food never takes too long and is typically ready prior to the quoted pick up time. The employees are always friendly and the food is always delicious.

Fajitas texicanas The shrimp were under cooked, the steak and chicken was tough and chewy. The tortillas were microwaved so they were also chewy too. The guacamole tasted old, and is watered down.

Rarely a wait, and the bar also offers tabletop seating. I've had the white fish tacos and the taco bowl (seperare visits). Both are filing and easy on the pocket. The margaritas come in different sizes and several flavors, I've only had the mango and it shakes. Chips and salsa are served in two sizes and are not on the house. Try em out and see what ya think!

They handed me this thing off chips with salsa that was enough for five regular people or two Joshuas. The chips were good, fresh, slightly warm. The salsa was fantastic, though a little cilantro forward for someone who thinks it's soap. I ordered a chicken chimichanga for my main. I'll be honest, I'm not sure what came out qualifies as a chimichanga -- it wasn't deeply fried (or baked), and was covered with a cheese sauce like a smothered burrito. Maybe someone sent me the wrong thing? I don't bite. But, it was delicious. The sauce actually greatly complemented everything, and it was evenly seasoned. I'll definitely be back the next time I pass that way.

It comes with salsa and sour cream on the side. What really stood out to me was the amount of protein options--they give you a lot to pick from. I went with lengua, and it ended up being the perfect choice. Tender, well seasoned, and honestly just delicious. This location feels like it's about one-third the size of the Arnold spot, but the service here still has that same team-oriented flow I like. Even in a smaller space, multiple staff members kept an eye on things, and I never had to flag anyone down. The food quality is just as solid as the Arnold location, and everything I've had between the two has been consistently good. The Severna Park location has a more compact, cozy feel, but it still works well for a casual dinner or a quick bite. And if you're coming alone or with a small group, the size actually makes it feel a bit more personal. Overall, the Crunchwrap hit the mark, the lengua was a standout, and the service was exactly what I expect from Señor Chile. I'd definitely come back to this location.

While customer service was a bit gruff considering it wasn't busy, the food was delicious! Of course no white glove here, but when I asked for a receipt, it wasn't itemized and was charged 'one comida'. I've not been to their restaurant but had I known, perhaps price points are at least shared. The truck itself is clean, has a picture board and options posted, and marked clear of other locations. We chose two orders of quesabirria (half/4pcs), an order of chicken flautas (5pcs), and a gordita al pastor. Quesabirria is meaty hefty and cheesy loaded, consome on the side! The flautas was crispy and packed with shredded chicken, and the rice and beans were seasoned well. The lettuce were not limpy at all lol! I took a bite out of the al pastor and the ratio of protein and pineapple was money. Esooo, fuego! Not a cloud on this stone, Taqueria Los Jarochos food truck is a diamond on Ritchie Highway. Easy to bypass, they're staged in front of a red and black building, next to BoA, opposite side of HP Racing. Pull up and get some food truck grub and grab a spot at the picnic tables!
