We tried Café Bueno last night because we had wanted to try it for a long time. I have to say that…read moreI was not overly impressed. The burrito I had was decent although the steak was of average cut. The shrimp inside the burrito were great. It was tasty so I will give them that, although it would be nice to have some sour cream for the top of the burrito like I get at other places. Additionally, the refried beans were a little thin. Not watery per se, but just kind of runny. The chips were fresh, although the one thing I really didn't like was that we had to pay for them and the salsa, which was bland. Virtually all other Mexican places bring you chips and salsa to start your meal. And honestly, for what I got, I think it was kind of pricy. I think there are much better options out there in the Frederick area for Mexican food. I'm not really sure what all the hype was for this place.

The food at this restaurant is absolutely fantastic. The…read moreEnchiladas we soft and so flavorful. It was more food than I could eat. I saved the rice and beans afterwards because it was so good. And the Tacos al Carbon were amazing!! Literally the best we've ever had - including at some of the best NY restaurants. The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars is that it took almost an hour to get our food. We came New Year's eve for lunch so it became busy, but I wish the management had planned better and not just had one server (later they added a second). Def eat here!

The mole sauce was incredible. The enchiladas were prounoused awesome. The steak weas perfect. Overall, a great presentation, great food and on our list of places to visit again!

The menu is very good- something for everyone. A great selection of cocktails and the margaritas are big and good. Everybody liked their foods.

They have an amazing protein meal that I'll have to get next time. We all had a great time and I highly recommend this great place.

We had dinner at Las Tunas last week. The ratings were high so we expected a lot. Here's what we…read morethought: 1) The jalapeño margarita was fantastic. A good size and great heat and flavor. 2) The chips and salsa they bring out were good. The salsa was a little thin and not much flavor, but still enjoyable. 3) The regual guacamole (not the fresh one) was very onion heavy. Almost too overpowering. 4) The chicken Tamale and Enchilada were fantastic. 5) The rice was great. Soft and flavorful. 6) The refried beans were bland and needed salt. 7) Birria Tacos were good, but the consumme (dipping birria juice) was also bland. 8) The carne tacos were fantastic. But the best part was how friendly the service was. They were so nice and attentive. I would go back, but I may take my own hot sauce with me.

The place is nothing to look at- it is small and inside a shopping plaza. We have been here a few times and service is quick, attentive, and friendly.

They make their salsa fresh and it comes unlimited with hot crisp chips prior to your meal. I ordered the chicken flautas for appetizer and the chicken quesadilla and supreme fajita burrito (chicken, shrimp and steak) for the entrees. I was stuffed and had leftovers which was still so tasty the next day. It's a very small and understated space. But even though our server was the only one facing the customers, he was very attentive and checked in on our table several times during our meal. This was good experience and I would've given it five stars if they did something more with the decor. Good food and good service always deserves props.

Got there at 5ish, and had a few patrons and kinda quiet. Very clean, music playing. The staff were SO FRIENDLY! They let me sample the tamarind drink = yummy. We ordered CARNE DESILADA CON HUEVO with French bread vs tortilla, I had the TACOS DE LENGUA and a TAMALES DE POLLO. Every bite was amazing for us both! I gotta say I have judged restaurants solely for their tamales alone, and this is literally one of the best I have ever had. It was huge with a giant tender piece of chicken in it, with a potato, tomato and chickpeas in it! Very unique but the taste...goodness. I want to go back now for another but I am FULL. The Lengua street tacos were on point, delicious. My husband's breakfast dish was fantastic he said, just enough. And he was SO HAPPY he chose the French bread, because apparently that was delicious. He wouldn't let me taste it, it was so good! We wanted to try the BUDIN (Salvadoran-style banana bread pudding) but they were sold out, likely because it was super delicious as well! Next time... Needless to say, we will be back and I'm going to brag to my office mates about this place. Please, try them out!

This was our first visit and everything went smoothly from prompt service, good drinks, and tasty food. The fried sweet plantains were perfectly cooked. Additionally, we tried the bowl, brisket burritos, tacos, and quesadillas. The complimentary chips and salsa were a hit with thin crisp tortilla chips and a thick unique salsa, which was quite tasty. Overall a positive visit.

We decided on just an appetizer since the music was so loud. So we went with the chicken nachos. I can't imagine what it was but it tasted like they spilled the sugar bowl on them. I guess it's possibly the bbq like sprinkle on the chips. Either way the sugary taste was definitely unexpected and not desirable. Shame it's a nice place

Well, we were sorely disappointed in what arrived. Including a picture of my Lengua taco. I asked for no onions but keep the cilantro and add cheese and tomato's. Instead, they gave me a horribly tiny portion of meat and nothing else [smh]. My husband was excited to get a breakfast plate. It did not have 1/2 of what was described (no cheese, no avocado, and only a mouthful of rice!). Additionally the eggs were supposed to have "peppers, onions and tomatoes" in them. The peppers were JALAPEÑOS! Loaded. Almost an inedible joke. And, they forgot to send the pupusa I ordered.... Again, very sad. Never again. I can't justify a second chance based on what they served. No pride in what they sent out tonight.

What's great is they often an array of options to sit down and enjoy, or even take home, from tamales to papusas and baked goods. The restaurant has plenty of seating and had a welcoming ambiance.

The lady at the register saw me taking pics of the menu and grabbed a paper menu to take with me. I will definitely stop by again and try some of their hot items.
