Mucho Gusto Fajita
Grace J.

Great ambiance, great food, great service! 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. 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. 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 sooner! 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. I'm guessing that means they field a lot of complaints about it. But, it was the holiday season and everyone was having a good time, so it wasn't that big of a deal. 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! 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!

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. Once seated, it was a little busy and felt like a fast casual restaurant. 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. Service was great and the environment was comfortable. 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!

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. The vibe is always great, open feeling, not overly loud even when busy.

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.

Dining area
Denise A.

Nice welcoming spot. We were seated right away, but had to ask to have our table cleaned. The food was good & we will definitely return because we felt a bit rushed since it was nearing closing time. Mt assist fruit mojito was very tasty. My partner had a chimichanga & liked it. I had soft carnitas tacos which I really enjoyed. Unfortunately, we must have been super hungry because I totally forgot to take any pics of our food. The dining area is well decorated with a positive vibe. Glad we stumbled upon this spot & will return.

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!

Guacamole
Ashley J.

Tortillas fresh ! Guacamole made table side ! Incredible $12 dolls lunch special, huge portion. espresso martini flights are amazing($32) with a great price point and a must try ! well as the hibiscus margaritas were fresh and sweet. The waitress was new but very kind and helpful! As soon as you enter you feel at home. Cute aesthetics on the inside, cute bar. it's located in the back of the shopping center in a small business park.

Chicken fajitas
Christina L.

We tried this place for my sisters birthday dinner. Her man invited us out and we met there. Service was slow at the bar. Our waitress did say a bartender was in training but that doesn't excuse our drinks coming out at different times. And my mans margarita didn't show up until after our entree was served. And his drink was served after someone asked if we needed anything and we explained that we were waiting for the last drink of the table. He did apologize for the delay. Cute place but a little small and snug. Too many tables but I get it. Our apps were bacon wrapped jalapeños stuffed with ground beef and cream cheese, elotes and taquitos. The guacamole said market price so for me when it says that then I'm most likely not willing to pay the price. So I didn't even ask. The faves were the jalapeños and elotes. Our entrees were carne asada, chicken fajitas, steak fajitas and shrimp with steak fajitas. My sister said her skirt steak was great, tender. Our fajitas were just ok. The flavor was not there. Maybe they don't want to over season and risk the food coming back to the kitchen. But for me if I'm eating Mexican food I want all of the flavors. I do like that they have small plates if you don't have a big appetite or just need a snack to go along with your cocktail. Oh the drinks - meh. Under delivered and overpriced. While there, we watched 2 people get the sparkly, flared happy birthday treat and a song sung to them. When it was my sisters turn the waitress informed us that they were out. Ok. So her man ordered her dessert. But when she brought it out no happy birthday, nothing special for her. And he did make reservations prior. Was the dessert at least comped? Of course not. But go, try them out. Maybe your experience will be better than ours.

I don't even know the last time I've had such amazing Mexican food....all this time, I thought the…read moreplaces we were going were great. Surprise! Senior Chile Cafe has them all beat! It's a small place compared to a few of the larger places in our area, but that's just fine. This restaurant is worthy of your time! I was looking for something out of the norm and I was not disappointed! From the moment we walked in to lively to the wonderful aromas, we knew this was going to be a stellar experience! We were greeted promptly and told we could pick a table. We were promptly brought menus and asked for what drinks we wanted. I opted for a Tropical Pina Margarita and hubby got Sandia Chile Margarita. Came very quick and we liked them so much we got another. We could have stopped at the house made salsa that had a smoky flavor and didn't look like it was poured from a jar in the back. The chips were outstanding. We opted to get some queso dip and it was just as good! Better than any other place we have had it. For dinner, my hubby opted for the Cameron Tacos on corn tortillas as he is a celiac. He remarked that it was the first time that he had corn tacos that were *solid*-meaning the taco stayed in shape and didn't fall apart while eating. The slaw was crispy, not overpowering, the pico de gallo was spicy, but not in the burn your tongue sense. He also liked the accompanying black beans and rice. I had Michelin Tacos. The first bite of mine was a bacon wrapped shrimp in a flour taco with a very pleasing sauce. The second one I had was chicken and it was just amazing. Nice slices of chicken with a pretty spicy sauce. Since I'm a big fan of spicy, this was amazing! The last one was steak, and I mean a nice piece of steak! Very tender, not overcooked! I couldn't tell you my favorite, because they were all equally delicious. Juan took very good care of us! Great evening and we will most certainly be back! To all of you that may like the *larger restaurants* on Ritchie Highway, please do yourself a favor and seek one of these stores out! We live closest to the Severna Park location, but all the stores seem to get good feedback! This is so out of the ordinary and definitely worthy of your time!

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.

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.
