Guacamole
Latesha J.

I stopped by Lexington market and saw this Mexican restaurant and decided to try their menu. I love Mexican food, so it was not hard for me to decide that this is where I wanted to eat. I ordered their shrimp quesadilla and added jalapeños in it. I also ordered their chips and guacamole. As you can see from the picture I wasted no time eating the quesadilla and completely forgot to take a picture before hand. The ingredients are fresh and the quesadilla was so flavorful. I could tell they seasoned the shrimp before placing it in between the tortillas. When I asked for jalapeños, they gave me the option to have fresh or pickled jalapeños. I chose the fresh ones to give it an extra kick. The chips and guac were also good. I'm not sure if the chips are made there in the store front, but it definitely tastes fresh. The guacamole could've used a little salt and maybe some lime, but it was still good. I just added one of the salt packets that they gave me with my utensils. The staff was friendly and you could tell they were really taking the time to make sure the customers ordered exactly what they wanted. I will definitely be returning for another lunch trip.

Decided to grab lunch here while stopping in Lexington Market. We ordered quesabirria, al pastor tacos, and a chicken quesadilla. Our orders came with the choice of salsa verde or salsa roja and we received complimentary bags of tortilla chips. It seemed like there was a bit of a lunch rush right after we ordered, so we had a pretty long wait. This was my first time trying quesabirria, and I was really excited considering all of the hype they've gotten recently. Unfortunately, I wasn't too impressed with these. Nothing was bad about them, but they just weren't really anything special. I liked the flavor of the consome, but I think I wished the cheese was a little meltier and the tortilla a little crispier. The al pastor tacos were the same - not bad, but not great. These I have had lots of times before, as they are usually my go-to if a place has them. The flavor was okay, but I thought it needed more pineapple, and the meat was pretty dry. The quesadilla was decent for a quesadilla. It was filled well, and I liked that it came with guacamole. Overall, everything was good, but just not something that I really really enjoyed.

Quesabirrias Tacos order of 3
Jessica K.

Food was really good!! I got the quesabirria tacos and they were very flavorful. I really liked the pico de gallo that came with it as well. Additionally my friend got the Al pastor quesadillas and she really liked them. The guacamole that came with them were especially stand out. It takes a bit of time to get your order, around 10 mins but it is worth it. Definitely check this place out if you are in Lexington market.

Chicken Quesadilla with chips and guacamole.
Brendan G.

So happy to be writing a good review about this gourmet eatery in Lexington Market Baltimore MD. While my order was not the fastest it was worth the wait and while the chips were mediocre the guacamole was terrific. The quesadilla I got here is easily one of the best I have had in a long time maybe within the entire area. Absolutely delicious and made to order perfectly.

Tacos Dorados
Nazary N.

Solid take out spot - tacos aren't anything crazy to write home about but the tacos dorados are awesome. 5 chicken packed taquitos with salad on top and a dipping salsa. Great lunch if you're in the area. Staff is friendly and there's lot of seating inside Lexington market to enjoy your lunch.

Newly opened merchant at the Lexington market. No prices shown on the menu but the tacos were $4 - $5 per taco depending on the meat you get. I ordered Al pastor and lengua and both were $5 each. The lengua taco was little salty for me but still decent. Al pastor was good but I've had better elsewhere. I think the place is little pricey compared to other Mexican places in the area but willing to try other menu items in the future.

Maximón - Quesadilla with steak

Maximón

Inner Harbor

What an amazing way to bring in the new year! Great ambience and service (though my husband and I…read morewere not fans of our initial seating arrangement (by the kitchen entrance). Our server was attentive and professional. Had the spicy margarita (even one was on the house after I told them I was a teacher). Appetizers were the crab fritters and quesadilla with steak. Delicious. Entrees were the roasted chicken and Wagy steak. Highly recommend!

My husband and I had dinner at Maximón a few nights ago. I'd wanted to check it out for a while,…read morebut I'm almost never in Harbor East. Maximón is the Atlas Group's Mexican/South American restaurant in the Four Seasons Building (between Azumi and Loch Bar), and it's as beautiful as you'd expect of an Atlas restaurant: high ceilings, leafy plants, pottery, gorgeous bar, great light... With Latin music playing, it fault like a beautiful and relaxing space for a Mexican meal. (They consider themselves a Mexican and South American restaurant. Other than a couple of dishes, like a more Peruvian take on a ceviche, the menu and decor read almost entirely Mexican-inspired to me). We started with a few drinks. A spicy mezcalita for him; a fruity, smoky Sotol-based cocktail for me. It's rare that we stick with a drink if ordering a second round. I almost always want to try something else or switch to wine with the meal. But both of us ordered the same for our second round - the drinks were good. Our food was less successful overall. We started with their yellowtail ceviche (with sweet potato, corn, cilantro, red onion, radish, fresno chile, and leche de tigre - the ceviche that leaved very Peruvian), which was good, but the fish was surprisingly fishy (it might have improved the dish to marinate the fish - it was more like a crudo than a ceviche as it was served, since the fish just sat on top of the leche de tigre). But it was a pretty good dish. Next up was their chile relleno appetizer (roasted poblano pepper, fresh pomegranate seeds, mozzarella, queso chihuahua, and avocado puree). This dish was pretty good (although - am I crazy or did they use a wonton wrapper rather than a flour dredge for the fried relleno?!). The relleno was simple and the cheese had a great cheese pull. The avocado puree was acidic enough to be a good accompaniment to the fried component of the dish. Next, we had two tacos. (FYI their tacos are one per order and pretty wildly expensive. The cheapest is their al pastor at $10/taco, and the most expensive is their Angus ribeye for $22/taco). We ordered one al pastor (duroc pork, pineapple, avocado salsa cruda), and one pulpo zarandeado (chile-spiced octopus, cabbage al escabeche, and salsa borracha). The filling of both tacos was pretty good, but - and this has never happened to me before - one tortilla didn't even make it one minute at our table. I picked the taco up and the tortilla just gave out - it was soggy and fell apart. I've never seen this happen with tortillas made in house and fresh. I suspect that the filling sat on the tortilla for a while before they served it (which is weird, because the food came very fast and all at once). We showed our waiter, who immediately brought us two additional tortillas so we could transfer the filling. These tortillas - when fresh and not having sat out with filling on them - were excellent. (Their menu says they source their heirloom corn for their tortillas from Oaxaca, and the flavor and texture of these replacement tacos were great.) We also ordered a side of black bean risotto (with caramelized manchego cheese), which had great flavor but very overcooked rice. Then, we shared a dessert, too - their pastel de chocolate (which they now serve with fruit to break up the rich chocolate). The dessert was okay - I wish it had much more of the guava puree, because that was so bright and delicious, but you couldn't taste it against the strong, rich flavor of the chocolate. (I also had a shot of great tequila with the dessert - their bar program really wowed me.) I absolutely have to give a shoutout to our waiter David. He was great. I started this review at three stars - the food was just inconsistent and didn't wow me - but as I was writing this paragraph on service, I knew I had to raise it to four stars. On the food alone, I might have given Maximón three stars, but at the same meal, we experienced five star service. David was friendly and helpful and was hands out the best part of our experience at Maximón. Ultimately, the food was a little underwhelming to me, but I would absolutely return to Maximón based on the quality of the drinks and that great service. Maximón has a Harbor-facing patio, which in warmer months, looks like a dream. I'd absolutely come back, request David as our waiter, and drink cocktails on the patio all evening!

Don't let the outside deceive you. Once you walk in you'll smell the fresh cilantro and chile. It took a bit to translate the menu, but you'll figure it out. There are plenty of options. The server helped us figure it out and we were set. I ordered the El pastor tacos, beans & rice, and tortilla chips. The tacos were theeee best! What I loved the most is that the corn tortillas didn't fall apart!!! I hate it when I go to eat a taco and it falls apart. They cooked the tortillas enough so they held up, but were still soft. Did I already say how good the tacos were?! Along with the meat is cilantro, some onions, and you can top it with some green chili sauce. Sooooo good! The pico de Gallo was some of the best I've ever had. I know what you're thinking. How could you go wrong with pico de Gallo? Yeah, I wonder the same thing, but this pico was FRESH with just the right ratio of tomato, onion, cilantro, etc. Next time I'll order two of them. The chips are restaurant-made. That was our first indicator that the food was going to be ALL that we hoped it would be. AND it was. The beans were pinto beans. Memories from home and the ultimate comfort food. The were cooked perfectly with just enough seasoning. The rice was perfectly cooked too. This is the taco spot you need to try.

Health: A menu with wide variety and genuine Hispanic cuisine is more than appreciated. Rice,…read moresalad, meat, soups. It's there and cooked without oil immersion or the awful trap of terrible portioning. Here, the nutrients shine. And that is healthy. Price: Decent. Very Decent. Everything I bought there was roughly over 45 dollars (before the tipping) and keep in mind, the condiments and sauces were complimentary. For this quality and quantity? I definitely got my money's worth. Experience: Wonderful server. Even in a busy dinner cycle, she came over and literally started to hand me a menu almost right as I sat down. Even gave me a great recommendation for the Enchilada platter and brought the holster of extras over to the table as well. The food was delivered quickly, and the small details (utensils, cleanliness, chair organization etc.) were great. Taste: Honestly this place is a standout for seasoning. It's flavorful, unique, and skewed towards spices over oil. Tasteful impact, without the baggage. A gem. Even among so many other restaurants serving this cuisine in the area I've tried, this is a standout. I'll come eat here again. You should too. It's right next to Patterson park with so many parking spaces nearby. I'm gonna run here. Soon.

They were fresh, flavorful, and hit the spot. The food comes out fast and the prices are very reasonable, which makes it an easy go-to for a casual meal. Customer service has been consistently great on every visit, which really adds to the neighborhood feel. My only downside is the salsas. They are a bit watery and not really my thing. Still, between the solid tacos, quick prep, and friendly service, this place is definitely worth checking out if you're nearby.

Both were good but, the oaxcaca and packed a flavor punch. It complimented the pico with the chips. For my main, I ordered the seared Ahi tacos. Nicely prepared. Cooked but, still had that fresh pink color. Nicely seasoned and awesome portion sized for pricing. I did add a little guac and pico taco for added flavor. To wash it down, I sipped a peach Palmer. Think Baltimore half and half with added peach flavor and Vodka. A refreshingly boozy good time. Our server Diana was a pro with our table of 10. I'd recommend this spot for big groups. Just be forewarned they don't multiple cards on a large tab. Would definitely come back again and again.

Their brunch is great, their tacos are yummy and they have so much variety in terms of meat/veg and flavor profile. The first taco I ever tried was the Bang Bang cauliflower taco and I'm pretty sure I ordered it every single time I went there for a year. I also love steak taco, and at one point there was a taco take had Korean inspired flavors that was super yummy but it's no longer on the menu. For drinks I love the Julio smash and the red sangria. I also love that they always have bottomless mimosas. There's always ample seating inside and outside. However, if you're sitting on the outside that's closest to the harbor, you're kind of in the outskirts and I'm not gonna lie the two times I've sat on that far side it almost felt like our server completely forgot about us but you're by the water, it's nice and sunny, there's a nice breeze. It's also great for people watching or if you just want a little bit more privacy. The service is usually great, they are frequently training staff tho. I'm not sure if it's just a summer thing and maybe they have younger college aged adults who just need a summer gig, but once the weather gets nice there's a higher chance of you getting a server whose simultaneously training someone or you have a trainee as your waiter and then someone comes every so often asking how they're doing. Not a big deal but it can get a little annoying. Either way the food is great, the drinks are great, the location is perfect for the summer time and they have friendly staff. I will always be a regular there.

Fajitas-- good; burrito-- good; guac-- good; salsas-- good; enchiladas-- good; churros-- good; esquites-- good; ribeye-- good.

If you are looking for San Diego-class Mexican, where every part of every dish is on the verge of collapsing under the weight of its own flavor, you're in the wrong place. Normally I'd give 4 stars. But El Agave earns its 5th just by being *comfortable*. It's reliable, no-miss, well-portioned, well-priced, quite tasty, nearby, and it's served promptly with a smile.

There was lettuce, tomato, and cheese on the plate on the side, so I had to dress my own tacos. They tasted okay, not great, not bad. The $6 Monday margaritas are for the 12 oz and are made strong. It's a $1 more for a flavor and $1 more for a larger size (16 oz). The men's bathroom is small and had two urinals that are right next to the bathroom door. I will probably stick with my usual spot in Laurel, called Chido's.
