Plato El Trovador
Gisell G.

Tela Mares has beautiful decorations that makes for a great atmosphere and photo-op. They have a "tunes juxebox" electronic thing so that you can play your music (you have to pay). The restaurant had no music playing but my family played some on the jukebox for the birthday boy and it set the vibe for the dinner. I ordered a tamarindo juice drink and it was absolutely amazing, the perfect amount of sweetness. I ordered the "Plato el trovador" which consists of beef, chicken fajita, shrimp and bbq ribs served with rice, beans and salad. Mexican food is my favorite therefore I can genuinely say the food was delicious. Sadly they were out of cake /deserts and this was a birthday dinner so that was a little disappointing. The food gets a solid 4/5 stars because it was delicious but I wouldn't say its the best. Not overpriced at all, very good pricing on the food. I recommend this place for dinner or birthday (mention the cake before to ensure they don't run out ahead of time)

Taquitos (beef)

*Baltimore Eats* Yelp 365 Challenge x 2 #211/365 You have to trudge through and find this gem in Fells Point. I'm still silently laughing because many would consider this a hole in the wall but honestly, when you want authentic food? You need to look or ask around for this type of restaurant! It's located in the Latin community of Fells Point and that manager and his staff were sooooo nice and helpful. The restaurant is pretty roomy with Latin decor (It reminded me of San Luis, Mexico near Yuma, Arizona). What was funny was that we walk into a Latin restaurant and the music playing was Gangam Style. I ordered Taquitos for appetizers while my co-worker ordered fried plantains. Then she had the chicken fajita plate while I ordered their Jalisco platter that had enchiladas, tacos and tamales! I tell you..it was good. I didn't walk away disappointed. The price also for our entire meal was very, VERY reasonable too. I just regret that I had no room for dessert. Overall Customer Service: ¡Muy Bueno! Food: La comida era muy deliciosa Ambiance: La decoración del restaurante había un tema latino Price: El precio no era caro Recommend: Sí, este restaurante es un buen lugar para comer

Patron Margarita
Kimberly B.

Tried Tela Mares on the recommendation of a fellow native Californian who is also snobby about her Mexican food. The exterior of the restaurant needs some TLC. The interior however seems newly renovated. It was very clean, bright and inviting. We both had the miXed fajita platter which included chicken, steak and shrimp. So delicious and authentic!! The patron margarita also hit the spot. Totally recommend for all you foodies who love your authentic Mexican cuisine.

Wonderfully fresh cerviche appetizer started us off.

I love this place, it's covers all areas of food, as gas as vegetarian, gluten free, vegan,…read moreclassic, etc. I tried some vegan options and didn't miss anything from tastebuds. However the rotisserie chicken was everything. I love the rotisserie chicken and the sides. The mac & cheese is awesome. That little teeny salad was awesome. I go at least once a week, The staff is very friendly and pleasant, always making sure that order is correct,plus tell you have a great day. The restaurant is so cozy and clean, no rushing even if you're not familiar with vegan they will explain and tell you everything about it. I stay at a hotel downtown and go everytime.

Went here for a late lunch on a Monday and was surprised to see that the restaurant was still half…read morefull. It was an easy order process and the food came out very quick. We ordered a salad, lomo empanada, and 1/2 chicken meal with brussels sprouts & carrots and black beans. To drink we got a chica morada. The lomo empanada had a great flavor and texture which was great to split as an opener. The 1/2 chicken was flavorful with both the light and the dark meat worth trying. The chicken was halved right in from of us with a large cleaver and the freshness was notable. The brussel sprouts were plentiful, crispy if a pinch oily, and with a slight sweetness that went well with the chicken. The beans were fine; likely the only thing we would not get again. Both the mild (white) and medium (green) sauces went very well with both the empanadas and the chicken. The chicha morada tasted of corn, cloves and cinnamon and was a nice sweet treat. Overall, a wonderfully quick spot with great flavor in the inner harbor.

Choptank never disappoints! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was lively, the food was…read moredelicious, and the service was absolutely outstanding. A special thank you to Ryan and Jordan, who truly made our experience exceptional. They were welcoming, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect throughout our meal. Their friendly personalities and genuine hospitality made us feel like valued guests, and it's clear they take pride in providing excellent service. The food and drinks were fantastic, but Ryan and Jordan are what made this visit memorable. If you're looking for great seafood, a fun waterfront vibe, and service that exceeds expectations, Choptank is the place to go. We'll definitely be back!

sadly, this place was a chop for me (sorry, I had to)…read more I went here for a company dinner. We had a preset menu. All the dishes just missed the mark. Firstly, the crab dip tasted dry, despite it being a dip. The crab wasn't very noticeable either. The main proteins we were served were either too salty, dry, or just kind of bland. They also didn't give us enough serving utensils. Lastly, the desserts served were individual sized portions, but we were told to share them "family style" since not everyone got a dessert. Now, this could've 100% been on my workplace for how they selected the menu. But regardless, both desserts were not great. The strawberry sorbet tasted overpoweringly like strawberry jam, whereas I prefer and expect a fresh strawberry flavor. The keylime dessert had too much lime and not a good balance of flavors and textures
