    Mucho Gusto Fajita
    Grace J.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great ambiance, great food, great service![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was slightly apprehensive given the mixed reviews, but my experience last night was great. Fair warning, try to get your name on the waitlist if you're going for a popular time (dinner) as the wait was about 25 mins though that wasn't a problem for us I know some like to get in and get seated and this place is fairly popular based on the crowd. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The decor is extremely beautiful, and I was surpassed at the layout as I expected it to be super cramped, but there's more than enough space between tables and parties which is nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server, Kylie, was amazing! Her recommendations were top tier and she checked in on us frequently to ensure we were well taken care of. We ordered spicy guacamole, amazing! Usually guacamole is kinda flavorless but having the spicy element really made it taste amazing--and they didn't skimp out on the serving size you get a HUGE bowl! We also ordered the queso fundido, this wasn't as good and I probably wouldn't order again as it was pretty tasteless. As my entree I ordered the Mucho Gusto fajita (includes shrimp, steak and chicken), the dish came STEAMIN hot which I really appreciated. I will say though the fajita mix itself was amazing the Mexican rice and refried beans were cold and didn't taste good at all so I didn't end of eating those. However, the fajita mix itself was great and I had a lot of leftovers! For drinks we ordered the Blueberry Pina Margarita, very good! They were not shy with the patron either, so that was a plus. Overall, a great experience and I would definitely be back to try their other menu items!

    Taco Tuesday! Everything was delicious! Served hot and fresh. Plus Alfredo, he will take good care of you. His service and drinks are on point!

    Nice decorations!

    I wish I'd known when they'd opened, so I could have tried them so[[HIGHLIGHT]]oner! We visited in December 2025 and, despite how long they've been here, they were jam-packed! There wasn't a long wait, though, which was nice, maybe 10 minutes ultimately. I have two complaints. One, the noise. MAN is it LOUD in here! Even the server apologized for it when she greeted us[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. I'm guessing that means they field a lot of complaints about it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]But, it was the holiday season and everyone was having a good time, so it wasn't that big of a deal.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Two, prices. It's not exorbitantly expensive, but for a cuisine that's known for being a bit more budget-friendly, it was a little more than you'd expect to spend. This applies to both the drinks and the food. I will say, though, that you absolutely get what you pay for! The portions are pretty generous and the quality is exceptional! We started with the chips, which were not included for free, but they are well worth the 5 bucks! The chips themselves are thick and well-seasoned. The salsa was fresh and tasted fantastic! I had the birria quesadilla as my entrée. Despite the fact that it came with nothing on the said (except the consommé of course), it was plenty of food for me. If you generally run hungrier (I've been eating less lately), then you might want a side. But, I didn't need one. The drinks are great! I had the Bourbon Slap, and I would get that again 10/10! I also had the Flor de Jamaica (apologies on spelling), and it was quite good! Per the server, they make most everything in house, including this beverage. You can tell, too! Highly recommend! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, it's a great new place in Waugh Chapel with some stellar food and beautiful beverages. Just don't plan on it being a quiet meal or an inexpensive one. But, well worth the experience![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Mimosa flight and guacamole
    Sunni P.

    As a non-meat eater, this review is a reflection of the service rendered and the food and drinks I ordered Here's the positive, the flight mimosa was reasonably priced at $12 and you get four options. Additionally, Mucho Gusto offers a wide variety of mimosa options. And, the freshly made guacamole is a nice portion size and shareable, Unfortunately, the wait staff lacked personality and it took more than 20 minutes before I received my drink {and it wasn't crowded}. But my brunch buddies enjoyed their food {not pictured}.

    The side salad. It was actually good.  The dressing was slightly sweet but surprisingly good.
    Jacquetta P.

    I've been wanting to try this place for some time. So we decided to just stop by. Upon arrival we had approximately a 10 minute wait for 2 which wasn't bad. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Once seated, it was a little busy and felt like a fast casual restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Reviewing the menu I realized it wasn't as authentic as I was expecting. We ordered the chips & salsa, the barría quesadilla with a side salad, blackened grouper tacos, the empanadas and the chicken burrito. Everything came out pretty fast and the flavors were just ok. Definitely not bad but again not what I was expecting. It may have been an off night, or maybe it was me. I'd definitely try them again and would recommend you give them a try too if you're looking to try somewhere new.

    Fajitas
    Nille P.

    We arrived at approximately 8:45 and were seated promptly. I ordered the blood orange margarita, which was delicious. The chips and salsa were good, but fried just a little too hard. I ordered the shrimp, chicken and steak fajitas. Everything was really good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service was great and the environment was comfortable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would definitely return.

    Boom Boom Shrimp
    Ebone' H.

    We visited Mucho Gusto in Gambrills, MD and overall had a really good experience with both the food and drinks. The ambience was nice--clean, modern, and relaxed--and it wasn't crowded at all for a weekday during their happy hour, which made the experience even better. We started with the Nachos, which come with tortilla chips, refried beans, cheese, lettuce, pico de gallo, and salsa ranchera, topped with Cotija cheese, avocado sauce, and crema. We added ground beef, and while the nachos were tasty, we definitely could have used more meat. There was plenty of everything else, but the ground beef portion was light compared to the rest of the toppings. We also tried the Birria Sliders--two sliders brushed with birria consommé, packed with Birria meat and melted Mexican cheeses, served with an extra side of consommé. These were delicious and full of flavor. The Boom Boom Shrimp was another standout: beer-battered shrimp tossed in MG Boom Boom sauce, served over Mexican slaw with pineapple pico, and topped with Thai chili aioli. You can also make it vegetarian, which is a great option. Both dishes were great! For drinks, we ordered The Ocho Gusto Margarita (Tequila Ocho Reposado, Grand Marnier floater, agave, mandarin & lime juice), which was strong and well-balanced, and a Strawberry Lemonade, which was refreshing and paired nicely with the meal. Overall, the food was flavorful and creatively put together. With a little more generosity on the nacho meat, the meal would have been perfect. We'd definitely return to try more of their menu!

    18% gratuity added because it was after 3 pm! (Party of 2)

    We were excited to try a new place. However, this was a huge let down in many ways. Party of 2, arrived around 6:30 or so. The place was mostly empty. The font size on the menu is extremely small, even with 20/20 vision it was difficult to read. Bring your readers! Got seated quickly. Took roughly 10 mins for a server to arrive, they brought water. Asked if we'd been there, we said no. He basically read the table tent about how everything is prepared fresh to serve from drinks to food. Unlike other Mexican restaurants, no chips and salsa served, unless you purchased it for $5, and extra chips/salsa cost even more. One beer was $6 One high ball class basic marg was $15! The taquito app was $11. We assumed it would prob be 4-6 taquitos for the price, it was 3 chicken ones, luke warm in the center. Nothing mentioned on menu about it being 3 taquitos. So we each had 1 and a half. Odd number for an app/starter. Long wait till the Server eventually came back to take our dinner order. Server appeared to be bothered by our presence and/or to be working. We ordered: Fajita quesadilla $19 -it was good, but not worth the price to the size 3 mix/match tacos $16- mediocre to poor. No sides included with the tacos. Chicken taco, tasted like a mixed salad thrown onto a corn tortilla. Carnitas tacos were dry, cut cubed like, not pulled, not much flavor. Could only choose either flour or corn tortilla for all 3 tacos; couldn't mix and match tortillas for some reason. Do not recommend either chicken or carnitas. Server never returned to check on meal/food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambience was good. The establishment appears to be wanting to be more upscale, however the food and drinks is not matching the prices and quality of the items.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Most importantly an 18% gratuity is added!! We were a party of 2 and the gratuity was added because it was "after 3 pm". We read about the gratuity in a previous review and looked for it to be posted. On the bottom of the menu it states 18% gratuity added to parties of 6 or more, $150 or more and all day Tuesdays. Nothing mentioned about after 3pm. We were told when our bill was handed to us. Not impressed! The prices are outrageous for what you get. Sides aren't even included in most of not all options. I won't return, better and less expensive Mexican food elsewhere.

    Chiliquiles and blackberry Leche margarita.
    Brent C.

    This is one of my favorite restaurants. The staff is always attentive, nice, and quick. The food is also always top notch. I tried the chilaquiles with half the plate with red sauce and the other half green sauce. I enjoyed both saucees. Chips were fresh and absorbed just the right amount of sauce. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe is always great, open feeling, not overly loud even when busy[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]].

    Vanessa K.

    I had been looking forward to coming here since they opened and I finally made it. The food was okay but our server, Noelia was great. She was friendly, enthusiastic and really knew the menu. There's no free chips and salsa here. Chips and salsa are a $5 menu item. It did take awhile for our drinks to be ready. Our meals were good. But the dessert I ordered to go was not "allowed" as a "to go" item which makes no sense to me because I could have just ordered it, taken a bite and then asked for a to go box.

    Razzle Dazzle Mocktail
    Rae M.

    I met up with my BFF for a little dinner and A LOT of laughs! Mucho Gusto aesthetics are EVERYTHING! Cute lounge area that you apparently must book to be seated in that space, cute and vibrant bar scene and a welcoming environment! Much Gusto is located behind the Dick's Sporting Goods in Gambrills and has plenty of parking. We were seated at one of the high table tops near the bar. We ordered the guacamole for an appetizer, a few drinks and entrees. The guacamole is probably the best I've had in a long time. Seasoned perfectly! They even had homemade chips for dipping! I had the chicken enchiladas with verde sauce as an entree and they were absolutely delicious. I also ordered the Razzle Dazzle as a bevie and it did not disappoint! We had to give the desserts a try, so I ordered the churro ice cream sundae. Excellent choice on my part because it was a 10 out of 10! The only complaint I have is the noise volume. With the restaurant being a big open room, the acoustics are extremely loud. Other than that, I really enjoyed my time here. I think that's actually an understatement, since we were seated at 5:30 and didn't leave until 9:30! If you're ever in the mood for some awesome drinks and delicious Mexican food, I'd give Mucho Gusto a try! You can thank me later. PS arrive early because they fill up quick!

    there is a host stand when you first enter the main entrance. there was no one there and I waited there for an extremely long time, the bartender saw me waiting at the host stand until I just sat at the bar. it wasn't busy when I came. when I finally sat, my waitress was helpful with letting me know about the restaurant and food information. she was very polite. she brought over a glass of water and water jug without me having to ask for water. I had to repeat my order to her one item at a time. when it started to become busy, it seemed like she was pretty much the only one person attending multiple tables and making the guacamole station. service was ok speed and she checked on me enough, she was busy. food and drinks are good, average portions and came out at a reasonable time [[HIGHLIGHT]]large dining area with lounge area and bar area with bar seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]they have multiple single room bathrooms which were clean and maintenanced[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] located in a nice shopping center with plenty of free parking lot

    Lump meat from the Crab Enchiladas
    Carlena F.

    Went for a quick date night bite with my husband. We stopped in around a little before 6 on a Saturday night and were told there was a 30 minute wait. Our table was ready in about 15 minutes. The guacamole was the BEST I've ever had. The chips were hot and fresh and not loaded with a lot of salt, which I loved. Our server, Javier was phenomenal! He was polite, attentive and hospitable. I had the crab enchiladas which were filled with lump crab meat and dressed in a slightly spicy sauce, such was delicious. My husband had the mahi blackened tacos with a side of black beans and rice. We enjoyed our food. It was hot and fresh. I had the Gusto margarita cocktail; it was tasty and strong. We will definitely recommend this place. The only thing we did not care for was the seating. There isn't really a dignified waiting area. Upon being seated, we were east behind a couple waiting for their food which was separated by a long rectangular-shaped planter with a cactus and two other plants. There isn't really much privacy in that but we made the best out of it. Overall, we'd return and probably sit at the bar.

    They have a decent amount of flavours to try. I ended up getting the banana toasted coconut caramel…read moreice creamy. The flavour was delicious and decaí. You don't need to add anything else because there is a bit of saltyness meets the sweetness of the banana and the coconut flakes gives it a decent amount of texture over the ice cream base. I got to sample the banana almond chocolate ice cream that one was good. The toasted coconut ice cream left me a lot to desire because I did not get to experience the actual coconut flavour besides the texture of flakes. That one felt like it was vanilla ice cream with toasted flakes. They do make sure customers are satisfied. The ambience reminds me of Ladurée in NYC minus the crowds. I loved the decor and the intentionality behind it. I loved the wallpaper in the bathroom. It was so cute and whimsical. I need to come back and try the crepes by coming in before 4pm. Otherwise, if you come past 4pm you can still try their pies, and ice cream with a glass of dessert wine( I saw they had during my visit a good port selection!). One last thing, I took home some their homemade cookies. That academia cookie, hit the spot and will definitely recommend you to try it!

After some perusal, I elected a chocolate mousse slice. It was a resplendent work, with strong chocolate but a mix of flavors including a surprise hit of caramel at the bottom. The ice cream is locally made but I certainly did not have room to try it. There seem to be several local businesses under this general ownership, which gives one a good reason to pull over while traveling through the region.

I preordered and paid for a…read morespecific cookie, as I normally do, and when I went in to pick it up, I was told by a young employee, "Oh, I just sold it, sorry." I was completely confused. How do you sell a cookie that has already been purchased by a customer? I had already paid for it and was there specifically to pick up my order. She then asked if she could offer me another cookie. No. If I wanted another cookie, I would have ordered another one. I ordered a specific cookie for a reason. She then offered me a refund, which I agreed to. At that point, William, a shift lead, came over and told me they could not process my refund and that I would have to wait for a manager. When I asked for the manager, I was told "they don't have one." So let me understand this: Crumbl took my money, sold the product I had already purchased to someone else, and then could not refund me because there was apparently no manager available. William explained that although he was a shift lead, he did not have the ability to authorize the refund, and apparently only certain leads or a manager can do so. He gave me the manager's email and told me I could reach out to get my money back. This is some of the poorest customer service I have ever experienced. Mistakes happen, but what is unacceptable is having no ability to resolve the mistake for the customer who was directly affected by it. I should not have to chase down a manager by email to get a refund for a product that I already paid for and never received. I am extremely disappointed with how this was handled and expect my refund to be processed immediately. Customers should not be left paying for products that employees accidentally sell to someone else, nor should they be expected to figure out how to get their money back afterward. Crumbl needs to do better. This should not be allowed to happen.
