    Pupusas
    Art T.

    I'm overdue in updating my review, but it's needed. This place has definitely grown on me! The food somehow got better! The chips and salsa are free now, and the salsa is way better! It can be spicier than other nights depending on the ingredients, but it's always delicious. Taco Tuesday is so worth it! Just be warned, it can get crowded! But for $1.50 select tacos and pupusas, you can imagine why. The salsas continue to be flavorful and vibrant, the food is delicious and filling, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. And don't sleep on their Agua Frescas!! Refreshing!!

    I've decided that when I need a wife to cook for me this is where I will go. The food is fresh and the prices are reminiscent of pre-Covid times. Checked it out for a moms note out, went back with daughter, then back again with both kids. What caught my eye the first time was beef tongue tacos, beef head tacos, and a side of cactus. I don't consider this to be your Americanized Mexican restaurant. The service was great considering how busy they were with carry out orders. My second time there I thought I would try the ceviche... I'm normally not a fan of tomato bases but this ceviche was awesome for this meal and the next. Servings are hearty across the board.

    This place is so inconspicuous. A Mexican restaurant next to a 7-11. What are your expectations? I had none, and what I got was the best everyday Mexican food I had in MD thus far. Nothing fancy, but good fundamentals. I stop by here every time I'm nearby. You should too.

    I have been to ElCabrito several times before. It was always pretty good. Prices are pretty good. Food pretty good. But. Just went and got a steak burrito, like I always get. I found a FINGER NAIL in my burrito. It was actually in my mouth. There's no possible way that was an accident. The only thing I can think of is that someone did this on purpose. I don't want to get into racial conspiracy theories, but it seems like.... Anyway. I will not be back. Gross. Never again.

    5 Tacos + beans and rice for $11

    that's what I like on Taco Tuesday! They were packed full of flavor and were very filling. Excellent first time will come again!

    Chicken torta. Delicious!

    I've been here before where I had a Godiva which was delicious. This time offspring and I had the late night munchies and tried their chicken torta. It was soo good! The bread was fresh tasting and soft the jalapeño was spicy and hit the spot. We loved it and will def stopagain SOON.

    The food is good, but the service sucks. Twice I've been here, and it's awkward from the time I walk in until I leave. They have seating, but i'm not sure if I seat myself or wait. First time I sat myself, and then had to walk up and go get a menu. Right before I walked up to order the waiter came. The second time they just looked at us, and my wife was able to ask them in spanish. My son looked at me and stated that our waiter seemed as if he didn't want to be there during our meal, and i totally agreed. Hopefully they get it together. Maybe i'll tap back in down the road.

    3 Taco platter, carnitas, barbacoa and chorizo

    The parking is difficult with the 7-11 and liquor store neighbors, but after your first meal you will overlook it. So far, we have had carnitas, barbacoa, birra, al pastor, and chorizo tacos; chips guac and salsa; pork papusas; and chicken tinge tostada. Sides of slaw, and rice and beans. Everything has been delicious and filling. Do not expect the heat to be turned down for the American palate, spice and heat make the food all the more memorable. Most dishes are mild hot until you use the sauces or bite into the grilled onions and jalepenos served with most dishes. Those who love a real hot dish should try the chicken tinge, flavorful and spicey. Don't miss Taco Tuesday where papusas and a select variety of tacos are only $1.50 each. We have yet to try Fajita Fridays, will update the review as soon as we do.

    DGD treated me to a birthday lunch here and wow, was it great! We requested to sit on the patio and…read morewere seated immediately. Chips and salsa came right away and it was hard not to eat too much, it was so tasty! The chips were fresh and hot with the perfect amount of salt; salsa was medium hot, just right for my spicy preference. After a very short wait - maybe 5 minutes, tops - our server came to take our order. The food arrived within 10 minutes. We shared nachos supreme with beef (ground beef) and four street tacos with carnitas. I can't begin to tell you how hard it was not to gobble down every bit. The carnitas were spiced perfectly and were moist and melt-in-your-mouth tender. The ground beef was, as well. The vegetables in both dishes - lettuce, onion, tomato, jalapeño - were fresh as can be. DGD enjoyed a strawberry Jarisco, while I stuck with water. The reason we held back from gorging on this feast was a planned stop at Coldstone after ;) Service was excellent, food was delicious. Parking is mildly annoying but that's just me. It's in a large shopping center and there's never any parking right in front of the businesses on the main entrance street. But we didn't have to walk far, just across an interior street from the parking shared with a theater. It's free, so a little walk is OK. With tip it was around $50 I think, but as DGD treated me, I wasn't involved in paying. Worth another visit, regardless.

    Honestly, save your money and just go for drinks and appetizers. The margaritas, cheese dip, and…read morepozole were great, but everything else was a mess. My red snapper was basically rubber it was cooked so hard that I was literally shaking the table just trying to cut a piece off. My waitress was in shock. The carne asada was cold and tough you got tired of chewing it. Super disappointing for an "authentic Mexican" restaurant.

    Yesterday, I had the absolute pleasure of treating my son, mother, and myself to one of the best…read moreValentine's Day dinners I have had. I have to share our experience from the beginning. So we drove a good 30mins to get here, with anticipation from seeing this restaurant on a travel channel, but the original location is in NY. We get there, and its plenty of free parking. We ask for seating for 3 and we are told they are only seating individuals who booked a reservation. Totally understandable considering its Valentine's day. I dropped the ball folks. I didn't make a reservation. So I noticed a bar lounge which we were told we could wait for a seat to open up. As we were waiting a coupled jumped in front us and took a seat. The manager Claudia came to the rescue like the dark knight but with more grace. She mentioned she was willing to put us on the list for a table in the main dining area. I accepted her kind gesture and continued to wait for bar lounge seating to open up. A couple was kind enough to come over to us and ask if we were waiting for bar lounge seating. They offered their table to us as they were ending their night. There was a 2 man band playing in the lounge area that was very soothing to the ear. As I tried to help my mother get comfortable at the hightop table, I noticed she was having a difficult time getting seated in such a high chair. Guess who came to the rescue, you guessed, Claudia! She's the best, 100 grand, made me a real fan. So she came over and said our table was ready if we wanted a booth seating and we all know that's the best seats in the house. All I could think is look at God. The wait wasn't even long either. 10 out of 10 for saving the day. In addition our waitress was such a sweetheart. I mentioned a white malbec I saw on the menu that I was astonish to see b/c I never knew of such a thing. She bought me a small glass to taste and my God, I am a true believer Jesus turned water into wine. Its so clear like water but the taste is amazing. The food is so delicious. The restaurant is very clean. The staff is very personalable. Everyone cartered to us. You would have thought we were the Obamas or something. As we were stuffing our faces, Claudia comes around handing out roses to the men/boys to give to their dates. Complimenting my son and his daper outfit she hands him a rose and tells him to give it your mommy. At the moment he lights up with a big smile as if he paid for the rose himself. I can tell he felt like a gentleman and good that he could give his mother a red rose on Valentine's day. That small gesture was very thoughtful and appreciated. I apologize for my essay, but they desired it. I love the service, the ambiance, the food, and service. I haven't seen my mother smile so much in a while. So it bought me great joy to give my mother this experience on Valentine's day. I thank Nonna Angela's staff for such a wonderful experience.
