Service was great and incredibly polite! Tables were well cleaned with almost nothing left to be desired, and the menu was varied with lots of great options! The food was a first time experience as I've never had tacos without cheese before, as well as having them with onions, but I was impressed and tasted very good! The portions were huge with lots of grilled steak and onions in my tacos. They were so good I had to save one for later! The speed was top notch, with 4 dishes out on under 10 minutes, that's faster than a blink of an eye in restaurant terms! My rating would be 4.4, but my mom rated this place 5.0, so that averages out to a 4.75, rounded up is 5.0 I would highly recommend going here for an amazing experience! :) read more

I love the salsas in leonardtowb so when my brother in law asked if we could go here I was all for it! The chips and salsa are always top tier but what really set this apart what my husband is keto and they had chicharonnes and salsa. I half expected the bagged variety. Yall-- these are fresh and hot!!! Sooo good and worth it even as someone who's not the biggest fan of pork rinds. My sister in law got the big margarita and we shared it. Strawberry on the rocks. So good!!! read more

Salsa's Mexican Cafe - Mexican Near Me - Lusby, Maryland

Our all-time favorite Mexican spot the most friendly staff you'll ever meet extremely quick service have never been disappointed here. The chips and salsa are homemade as well as everything on their menu. It's really really tasty and we always feel special and like the most important customers in the whole restaurant, they're always sweet to our sons and make sure we leave a full belly. Highly recommend this delicious restaurant. read more

Servers are pretty nice, Salsa is okay and the food comes out rather fast. It's my go to Mexican restaurant around here. Definitely the cleanest in my Opinion. read more

My parents picked up a black bean burrito for me on the way home. I got a pan of black beans with a rolled up tortilla

So, minor peeve, nothing to "burn the house down for", but I will do my part to make restaurant service better. As a customer feedback point, maybe, it would be better to just raise the price of menu items instead of breaking with typical services at most food establishments in the area by charging for a lemon. Per the explanation from the one of waiters when asked, lemon prices went up. Hmmm. Imagine Longhorn charging for lemons, or Outback charging for bread. Reading prior reviews here, Salsas even started charging for the chips on the table? Thank God I didn't get that. I take it Lusby is a more well-to-do section of Maryland? So I don't think there is a matter of cost for a consumer in Lusby to be charged like this when eating at a food establishment like Salsas in Lusby. However it may be more of a failed expectation, a misalignment to such consumers. I would say to them it says something about the establishment, something desperate, maybe even a cry for help. My first time there. Was just testing it out. I would suggest, unsolicited, to the owners, instead of charging for lemons and chips (slippery slope says next is water and ice), just raise the price of menu items overall. If the quality of the service is high, and cooks are doing their best to keep the food looking at tasting good, the Lusby demographic I don't think is going to hate. For those that may ask about the meal, how was it? Well it was steamed veggies and shrimp. None of the establishments added seasoning. Nothing Mexican about it. As expected. It was normal. You can't mess that up, right? I was hungry. Starbucks was having a card reader issue. I gave Salsas a shot. read more

Salsa's Mexican Cafe - Charged for lemon. At least it was a whole one, clicked twice. Asked for it as a seasoning to my food order. - Mexican Near Me - Lusby, Maryland

The food was really not good. Greasy, unseasoned, not great environment. Will not return.

The food and service is terrible they up charged me and didnt give me my requested add ons! this place is terrible i wouldnt recommend!

May 2021 update. Although life is still not back to normal we're nearing the end of the pandemic. All the covid rules are still being followed here at salsas. This is still a great place with fast service and tasty food. All of the servers are motivated, friendly and professional. The food orders are never wrong and I'm always happy with whatever I order here. You can dine inside or out. read more

Good food, large parking lot. Open great hours. You cannot go wrong with the chips and salsa.

This place is so disappointing. Food has no flavor and everything is cold. There is no difference between an enchalada, a burrito, or a chimichanga. All are soggy apparitions of what they should have been. Beans had no flavor even with "cheese". Nachos had flavorless ground beef on top of stale chips. Attempted due to school fundraiser. Sorry I did. read more

Wow, I hope the Tacos Birria end up on the permanent menu ! Went to Salsa's Saturday night and REALLY enjoyed this special, along with a refreshing margarita. Excellent !! read more

Decided to give this establishment a try given the mixed reviews. Service was good and the people friendly; equally important the environment was clean. They served nachos and salsa immediately, which I enjoyed. The nachos were fresh & crispy without being oily. The salasa is more on the thin side but has decent flavor, not spicy but nicely balanced. I had a traditional margarita ($6.50) with salt and it was good...you could taste the alcohol. The Carne Asada dinner was large but the complete meal lacked flavor. The refried beans were the most bland I've ever had and even with salt & pepper added I was unable to eat it. The entree is inexpensive ($12.50)?so I wasn't surprised by the poor quality of beef served. The beef wasn't fatty as described in another review but didn't have a lot of flavor and was pretty tough/stringy. When cut and placed with the fresh avacodo and salas, it wasn't bad. They should consider pricing up and serving a better cut of beef. Regardless, they still need to season their food. I'll give this place another shot based on the chips and margarita. Not sure which entree I'll try but will keep you posted when I return. read more

Salsas is OK Mexican. It's nothing to write home about but we don't have many options down here. The place is usually busy. Chips are good and salsa has the right spice. Meats are mediocre and mostly everything is inconsistent. Tacos are not great. read more

I ordered a taco salad which was supposed to come with some shredded cheese. Didn't come with the shredded cheese I said it's missing may I have it please- Was charged 4.50 extra for a side of queso dip- liquid cheese- Was told because the desser was sent back was taken off the check this queso I didn't order wouldn't be taken off the check, but I never ordered it. Customers shouldn't be charged for something they didn't order, ever. Will be contacting my credit card company to contest that portion of the check and the tip the waiter hovered over me watching me fill out to pressure me. Weird. Won't be back. read more

Salsas never does us wrong! This place has become our comfort food spot! 10/10 service and food

Quick, friendly service - and yummy food at a very reasonable price. Kids meals were a good size, too.

I'm kind of in the middle for this one, based on the two experiences that I had here. I think they were about three years apart or so, so maybe in between then the chefs changed, or my tolerance for mainland food changed, but the first time I went here, I felt like I had food poisoning. I don't remember what I had, but that night and the two days afterward I just could not eat anything. Ugh I don't even want to think about it. This time though, around December 2019 after Christmas, the food was a lot better than it was before. I only had something small like the queso or something like that... No I had the chorizo queso and that one was really good. I would get it again because that seems to be my favorite kind of queso dip. I didn't try anything else because I was wary of how my stomach would react, but based on my experience this time, I wouldn't mind going again the next time we are in the area. read more

My boyfriend and I are new to the area, and we love trying new restaurants. We rode past this place a few times and we decided to check it out today. The food is very tasty and we received excellent service from all the staff members. Did I mention the prices are fantastic? I got lunch chicken fajitas and my boyfriend got the Nachos Texanos (picture below) and we spent less than $20! I highly recommend this place and we will return! read more

Salsa's Mexican Cafe - Nachos Texanos - Mexican Near Me - Lusby, Maryland

That's a shame that salsas only has 3 stars. I would give it 5. I have been here lots of times and tried many things here. I have never really been disappointed. The employees here have been here a while, this place seems to have a low turnover. The employees are friendly and always remember you. I have never had any bad food here. I'm always sure to get the chiles toreadas, it's not on the menu but it's fried jalapenos and fried adobo peppers with some seasoning. Delicious addition if you like spicy things. Honestly not a big fan of the cheese they use on the chili relleno and the cheese sauces found on various things. It's like a white American cheese, I generally avoid it. That being said, everything here is good and I visit almost once a week. The carnitas are worth trying, and the fajitas are what you would expect. I kind of wish Mexican places in Maryland would offer more authentic foods rather than the Wisconsin Tex mex version. For southern Maryland this is to be expected. For the taco truck SOCAL experience there's some other places around where you can get your fix. That being said, this place is good and I don't see why people dislike it so much. read more

Love Salsa's! Always have a great meal here, no matter when or what we order. Friendly servers and fast service.

Don't bother. Sometimes I'll say that food was good even if not authentic. This was neither. My kids wouldn't even eat it. Ground beef in enchiladas? The sauce was, blah bland. Chile relleno was greasy. And what the heck kind of cheese did they use?! I'll stop there. read more

The place changed hands but never really changed. The poor people that work there can barely speak English, sorry but we do! The chips and dip came out fast but after that you have to ask for everything including silverware, it's very hard to communicate with their staff. The food is, nothing special. I guess they stopped serving frozen margaritas, that's what we ordered but it was never really explained why we didn't get one! Again the problem is: they are not being able to communicate! Not a pleasant experience, once again! Will not be going back read more

Great food and a nice ambiance! Been here 100+ times and never had a bad meal here. Servers always friendly and accommodating.

Consistently good food and service. Great stuffed poblanos and frozen drinks. More of a family or date night atmosphere. TVs throughout but they're relatively small for watching a big game. My favorite restaurant in Lusby. read more

This is their third day open, and they are going through standard growing pains. With that, I ordered a drink off their menu that they could not serve due to missing one of the ingredients. I got a frozen margarita instead. Low and behold ten minutes later the manager shows up with the drink I originally ordered, on the house! They had dispatched someone to the nearby store to by a bottle rather than let me settle for the second choice! (it should be noted I did not complain in anyway beforehand which makes this all the more amazing). The shrimp tacos are delicious, the Tres compadres is phenomenal as well. They clearly know a good first impression is key to repeat business and they did not disappoint. read more

Salsa's Mexican Cafe - No difference in a burrito or an enchilada. Guess they are both tortilla with just meat in it. Never coming here and wont recommend - Mexican Near Me - Lusby, Maryland

The environment is appealing and comforting. The server was polite and on point. Chips were warm and salsa tasted good. Even my husband ate it and he doesn't like salsa much. The food was bomb!! Nice portions and good prices. I had the seafood chimichanga and a margarita which was on point! Hubby had a chicken quesadilla. We both left full and happy and will surely return after our first visit read more

This is our second visit and it was just as good as the first time. Tonight we had the Fiesta Guacamole ( was disappointed they did not make it at our table this time) still tasted wonderful. We had Hawaiin Enchilada which was very tasty, chimichangas which my girls loved, shrimp burrito which had some large uncooked onion in it, and some shrimp and pepper dish which was great with many shrimp. Our first visit was 12/18/15 with a party of 7. We had great service and the food was good. read more

Food is simply meh.. I'm a fan of Mexican food but this place is white forgettable. I came here for a birthday dinner. The waiter was ok-he didn't really seem to want to be working and made sure to only appear when absolutely necessary. The food came out decent, again nothing special. I would probably go back if I were invited, but really wouldn't go out of my way to choose this place to eat. read more

Went on a Friday night and the service was great. Our server was attentive and got us everything we needed. I like my tacos pretty plain with just sour cream and cheese and that's how I got them. Plenty of meat and everything that had me stuffed. The chips and salsa were delicious and I'm excited for another strawberry margarita when I need a break. We ordered takeout from them as well and it came out quickly and correctly. read more

I would give this place 3.5 stars if I could. I'm from Arizona so I have pretty high standards for Mexican food, and this place was ok. I liked the ground beef and the salsa was tasty. The enchilada sauce needs some work - it was kind of sweet and chunky, more like a marinara sauce than an enchilada sauce. The quesadillas had a good amount of cheese but the cheese itself tasted like a white American cheese, not a Mexican cheese or even cheddar. We ordered take out and the food came out fast and the service was friendly. read more

Food overall was okay.good quantity but not the best quality.had to send multiple things back to get it right.but overall not bad

This is officially the last "mexican" food place I'm going to in this area. It was just food with no real flavor. My bf got a Carne Asad place and the meat was cooked right but it was 75% fat that he couldn't eat, so he only got a small amount of meat and some dry rice. Nice customer service for pick up, but not worth the money, in my opinion. read more

Great little fast food Mexican place. Very clean. Staff friendly. Never disappointed when we eat here.

It's kind of our neighborhood restaurant. Not the best Mexican food but it's cheap and fast and the beer is cold. I recommend the chorizo dip. The quesadillas are usually all meat, no cheese. read more

It doesn't taste authentic. Lacks flavor. I was hoping that it would be delicious. I have been craving Mexican food since i left San Diego.

We frequent this place for a quick but delicious meal. The service is always quick, and the staff have always been friendly and tentative. The chili relano here is like nothing I've ever had before. It's enormous and tastes amazing with some kind of cheese sauce that is out of this world. You can't go wrong coming here. Perfect for a quick but yummy meal that beats fast food any day. read more

This is my all time favorite place to go. I have felt like apart of the family since the day they opened. To have a relationship with the staff and the owner and his partner in the business means a lot. All staff are nothing but excellent in my eyes and I bring my family and my clients to this restaurant all the time. I celebrate my kids birthdays here and pack the house and they always make room for us. It's a family place to be. Great food and great vibe. read more
