The birria tacos were very flavorful and well-prepared. The meat was tender and seasoned perfectly, making each bite enjoyable. The service was good, with the staff being attentive and friendly. The ambiance was also pleasant and added to the overall dining experience, making it a great place to sit down and enjoy a meal.

Burrito
Cherish F.

Pretty tasty birria tacos. They aren't super spicy but flavorful. It's a simpler birria taco that I've tried. Good for someone who likes the basics in a taco. The consume wasn't very spicy either, went well with the tacos. The burrito was okay. I wasn't a fan of the texture of the cheese with the shell, but it wasn't bad. I liked how the churros had the perfect amount of sweetness. Good service overall. Great place if you're looking for mexican cuisine. Love the vibe overall.

Birria roll, fried shrimp tacos
Destiny S.

I think the birria roll were too oily imo but the fried shrimp tacos were on point. However they do really good with quesabirria and perhaps the rolls could be made with eggroll wraps bot the ones use for spring rolls

Carne asada tacos FTW
Kristina V.

I had the carne asada and a tamarind jaritos! Perfect. I tried the tamales and they were a little dry, but maybe it was an off day. I will definitely try again. The tacos were amazing. I would go back again and again.

Definitely would come back to get tacos. We ordered 8 tacos in total. The Al pastor was extremely flavorful and was the bet of all of them. Chicken was flavorful and juicy. Carnitas was the Least flavorful. Like 0 taste. Sauce is mandatory. Barbacoa was overcooked and a little hard to chew also . Not very flavorful Steak was good. Well seasoned even tho it was overcooked Chorizo has a slight kick and was crispy. Some of the best tacos I've had in the area. Minsaw the fajitas go by and while dramatic it smelled Amazing. Might venture outside of tacos next time. Space inside had a few tables and was cute over all and the food came out quickly. Give it a try if you are in the area! Happy tacoing!

Biarria Tacos
Nicole J.

My friend and I were in the area for a festival and decided to have lunch. A quick Google search and a 7 minute walk later, we arrived at the restaurant. The menu had plenty of great options and very reasonable prices. I ordered three beef biarria tacos and one tongue taco. I've tongue years ago, but this one was very tender and seasoned well. The two sauces were great additions, especially the green one. Before I left, I ordered some churros. The order came with 6 total and was filled with some cream or sauce. They were so hot and crunchy, I had already eaten four by the time I remembered to take a picture! This was a great restaurant with great staff, hopefully I get the chance to visit again.

La Patrona has been open for a few months and it has quickly become one of my favorite taco joints! Conveniently located for top tier lunches when in the office, I can't get enough! This is the Baltimore location of a longstanding HoCo fave. I've had the carne asada (steak), carnitas, al pastor, birria, and churros. Nothing has disappointed! Everyone is on the birria train but I've had the authentic goat birria on the streets of Puerto Vallarta and nothing compares. These are fine but I highly recommend the carne asada and carnitas. The seasoning on each is absolute perfection and the meat is tender and juicy (chef's kiss). Run don't walk!

Nice spot in Baltimore not far from the harbor. The tacos were good and price point was pretty solid. Think between the two of us we had about every taco.Food came out fresh and service was good.

This was my first time eating their food. I ordered the floutas meal. It came with yellow rice and beans (mostly liquid) and 6 floutas with lettuce, jalapeño cheese and sour cream. I suggest that they put more chicken in the floutas. It ate mostly shell. I also suggest that they add more acidity in this dish. The jalapeños were a fine choice but there needs to be more. I think a pico de gallo would have worked better because it would had the acidity and sweetness that is needed to balance the savory of the dish. Also there needed to be some sauce. A red or green sauce other than sour cream. The food was subpar. The floutas were crunchy for the most part but the chicken was consumed by mostly shell and the lettuce seemed slightly old and no freshness. The service was good. They were friendly and informative and it only took 5 mins for my order to be done. The ambiance was nice. Mexican music played in the back ground and there were 3 tables to sit and eat. I wouldn't order this item again unless they give more chicken, also more acidity and sweetness via pico de gallo and or some sauce and a fresher green.

Ordering counter. Straight up from entrance/exit

I visited the place in the last day of May as I've started a diet, and decided on this place to have my 1-monthly meal-out. The place was empty when I dropped by(around 7pm). The costumer service was really friendly and welcoming. I had a hard time seeing the menu, same color as my photos indicate. I didn't see a brochure so I took my time to order. I got the Birria Tacos(qty 4); they were okay, I was not impressed and I wanted to be, honestly. I'm so used to big tortilla that I forgot about tortilla taquera. The consume was lacking flavor, less cheesy and meat was not so juicy. I did like them, I think that for those who don't like birria, these are great to start--I say this as someone that used to not like Birria because of the strong taste, lol. My next item in the menu was an Al Pastor Machete. I like it! The only thing I didn't was that it had 1-2 fat pieces which I hate in any kind of meat when I eat out cuz I want meat--you feel me. The highlights of my order were the agua Fresca; I had hibiscus and I was invited to try the Horchata which was just perfect!!!! Both aguas frescas got me, and THE SALSAS!!! Ohh how long I've long for taquerias to have THE RIGHT SALSA FOR TACOS!!!--Almost all places I've been to have salsas for Antojitos; empanadas, tostadas,sopes, etc... They really hit the nail with flavor however my only suggestion is to let it thicken more otherwise it's watery. In total I spent $35.25 I will be coming back to try more items in their menu before raising my rating. My next order will be Horchata & Tlayuda(I didn't see this until after). Couple things, restroom is for only costumers and I used it during my visit and they did not have toilet paper--lucky me, I carry wipes. Nevertheless, they keep their restroom very clean. Music level is well balanced with outside noice. I also liked that the staff that day was composed of more women than men which emphasizes their name.

The Hype Is Absolutely Deserved!…read more Clavel is a highly acclaimed, family-run mezcaleria and taqueria in Baltimore -- and after finally visiting, I completely understand the hype! First things first: they don't take reservations, so plan accordingly! We arrived around 5:45 p.m. and were quoted a 45-minute wait. Apparently, if you arrive after 5:45, you should be prepared to wait anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. Thankfully, around 6 p.m., a few people got up from their seats at the bar and we QUICKLY grabbed them. Crisis averted! We started with the Mezcalita with cilantro honey, which came highly recommended by the bartender. It was SO delicious -- the perfect balance of sweet and spice without either overpowering the other. For my second drink, I switched to the Suero, made with El Buho Mezcal Espadin, green mango, lemon, agua mineral, and Himalayan pink salt. It was completely different from the Mezcalita -- super refreshing, crisp, and not sweet at all. Both were excellent! Then came the food. We started with the Queso Fundido -- bubbling hot queso Chihuahua with guacamole and frijoles y totopos. I mean...you really can't go wrong with bubbling cheese. For our tacos, my friend went all in on the mushroom tacos while I decided variety was the move. I ordered: Barbacoa de Borrego -- house-butchered lamb and beef shank cooked with Mexican coffee, Negra Modelo, and spices. El Luchador -- lightly battered cod with house-pickled cabbage slaw, habanero crema, and cilantro. Al Gobernador -- wild-caught Pacific shrimp in salsa Anaheim with melted queso Chihuahua and pico de gallo. All three were delicious, but I loved being able to try such different flavors and textures in one meal. The ingredients tasted fresh, everything was flavorful, and you can tell there's real thought and care behind the menu. The restaurant itself is also deceiving! From the outside, Clavel looks fairly small, but once you're inside, it's anything but. There are so many little twists, turns, rooms, and tucked-away spaces -- and somehow every single one of them was packed. I also loved the rustic, traditional Mexican-inspired décor. It feels warm, lively, and authentic without trying too hard. And the service matched the food! Everyone we interacted with was friendly and helpful, and our bartender's cocktail recommendation was spot-on. From the drinks to the tacos to the atmosphere and service, everything was superb. Clavel absolutely lived up to its reputation, and I already can't wait to go back -- I'll just be getting there BEFORE 5:45 next time.

This that last min dinner run or date night…read more It so mixy, vibey and energetic here; it almost feels like a slice of lower Manhattan New York. I love they have a waiting room, that doubles at a Carryout pick up and merch shop, so genius. It reminds me that Baltimore food scene is on the rise. I've been here before with my chef and the back of house crew, but I had to run it back; because I loved it Food was great, I enjoyed the queso fundido, the chihuahua queso was delight. The tacooooooos, this gotta be their bread and butter I definitely bodied it. The flan was classic, I got what I expected. Definitely high on my recommendation list, if you haven't you should go and if you have it's probably been a minute go run it back solo or w/ the homies

Mmmmmm! Good ole' comfort food in the form of tacos and home-cooked chips. We wanted some tacos…read moreand this spot was close, rated high on Yelp, and that's all we needed to know. Don't let the outside deceive you. Once you walk in you'll smell the fresh cilantro and chile. It took a bit to translate the menu, but you'll figure it out. There are plenty of options. The server helped us figure it out and we were set. I ordered the El pastor tacos, beans & rice, and tortilla chips. The tacos were theeee best! What I loved the most is that the corn tortillas didn't fall apart!!! I hate it when I go to eat a taco and it falls apart. They cooked the tortillas enough so they held up, but were still soft. Did I already say how good the tacos were?! Along with the meat is cilantro, some onions, and you can top it with some green chili sauce. Sooooo good! The pico de Gallo was some of the best I've ever had. I know what you're thinking. How could you go wrong with pico de Gallo? Yeah, I wonder the same thing, but this pico was FRESH with just the right ratio of tomato, onion, cilantro, etc. Next time I'll order two of them. The chips are restaurant-made. That was our first indicator that the food was going to be ALL that we hoped it would be. AND it was. The beans were pinto beans. Memories from home and the ultimate comfort food. The were cooked perfectly with just enough seasoning. The rice was perfectly cooked too. This is the taco spot you need to try.

The entire menu looks great, but I really wanted tacos so that's what I was going to get. I ordered…read moretakeout from the counter. Super nice service. Good music, and clean restaurant. The tacos taste amazing.

Health: A menu with wide variety and genuine Hispanic cuisine is more than appreciated. Rice,…read moresalad, meat, soups. It's there and cooked without oil immersion or the awful trap of terrible portioning. Here, the nutrients shine. And that is healthy. Price: Decent. Very Decent. Everything I bought there was roughly over 45 dollars (before the tipping) and keep in mind, the condiments and sauces were complimentary. For this quality and quantity? I definitely got my money's worth. Experience: Wonderful server. Even in a busy dinner cycle, she came over and literally started to hand me a menu almost right as I sat down. Even gave me a great recommendation for the Enchilada platter and brought the holster of extras over to the table as well. The food was delivered quickly, and the small details (utensils, cleanliness, chair organization etc.) were great. Taste: Honestly this place is a standout for seasoning. It's flavorful, unique, and skewed towards spices over oil. Tasteful impact, without the baggage. A gem. Even among so many other restaurants serving this cuisine in the area I've tried, this is a standout. I'll come eat here again. You should too. It's right next to Patterson park with so many parking spaces nearby. I'm gonna run here. Soon.
