After nearly 7 years of living and dining in Baltimore, I can confidently say that this place has the best tacos in the city. The fresh corn tortillas really make the incredible flavors of the meats and veggies pop. The staff are so nice. This is a very cute place to sit and enjoy a small meal in the midst of a busy day. Don't forget to take some tortillas home! read more

ive been meaning to grab lunch here for quite some time and finally got around to it over the weekend. ordered online and it was ready quickly. here are my thoughts: - kind of expensive. $5-$6 per taco is pretty steep imo. the tacos are filled, so they are worth it. you cant just get chips and guacamole, you have to buy everything separately. - of the tacos the al pastor was the best. we tried the chicken (good), shrimp (pretty spicy, wasnt prepared for it), steak (fine), and barbecue (good). the tortillas are the StARs of the show. some of the best ive had. - the pico was also spicy, if i would have known that I wouldnt have gotten such a large container to share with the fam. but it really was so fresh and delicious! - guacamole was very smooth and standard - chips were thick and had a good crunch - beans that came with the quesadilla were sort of bland and needed a lot of additions to get them in a good spot - my son loved the chicken quesadilla! - the sauces that came with the tacos were so so subtle. usually I expect the sauces to pack some heat and the Pico to be mild but this was all the opposite. we will definitely grab for lunch again :) read more

Tortilleria Sinaloa - Mexican Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Fantastic little spot with homemade tortillas. Order at the counter for take out or they have a few counter seats inside. Already planning our next visit back since they were out of al pastor tacos by the time we went there late Sunday afternoon. I really liked the carnitas and my husband fav was the carne asada. Plus the chips are my favorite kind of chips, thicker cut and crispy. read more

Excellent lengua tacos. We also tried a few other tacos (carne asada, barbacoa) and tamales but the lengua was the best. Carne asada was not bad either. Salsas are pretty good as well. read more

The tacos here are the real deal. I ordered the carne asada and it had great flavor with just the right amount of char. Everything tasted fresh, and the ingredients felt high quality. I liked that they give you options for different salsas and toppings. The staff was super chill and made me feel welcome. It's a small place but it has good energy. I'll be bringing friends next time. read more

Sad to say that the tacos lacked flavor the meat was dry. The salsa needs flavor too and $5 each is kinda crazy for having no flavor and not much on them. Also wasn't hot when I got it. The lady was nice though. read more

The food was delicious and well prepared. Very generous and tasty tamales. Friendly service and the food was ready quickly. The place is basic looking and easy to walk by but if you're looking for authentic and gluten free Mexican food check it out. Will definitely eat here again read more

I've heard so much about this spot and finally was able to try it recently! Tacos range from $5-6 each, but they are packed with meat (probably enough for two tacos at other restaurants) and the flavors are incredible. I was starving but after two tacos and some chips and guac, I was struggling to eat my third taco. The tacos come with two flour tortillas each, which probably didn't help with becoming so full so quickly. Highly recommend if you're looking for delicious tacos and authentic flavors! Just note that there is very limited seating inside and you'll likely have to take your order somewhere else to eat. read more

This unassuming Mexican spot in the Upper Fells neighborhood is a hidden gem. Their prices are reasonable, people who work here are lovely, and the food is quite decent. Tacos/tamales are delicious (they have lengua!), and their eggs with sausage & beans are a solid hangover cure. Most importantly, this is my go-to spot for tortillas; they make tortillas fresh in the restaurant and sell them in kilos: perfect for taco days at home with friends! Worth noting, the place is quite small, but I never had an issue finding a spot. Also, it is mainly for grabbing a quick bite, so don't expect a sit-down restaurant experience. read more

I have not been to my fav tortillería in a bit since I moved from the area, but today I too the trip for my kilo de tortillas and decided on 3 tacos de carnitas. With a Sangria as my choice of beverage! The hit the spot but I definitely preferred the Asado Tacos. The sauce game changed from last time I was here and I like them both, still not as spicy as I would love them to be. Service is always a 11/10! Very welcoming of anyone and food is always well portioned. People complained about the price but you don't get this freshness, portioned, and tasty service everywhere. The taquerias nearby may have a fancier look and whatnot but they do not compare, they are over priced and food is mediocre. I definitely prefer quality over hyped-up places. I am looking to get a kilo of my choice of meat some other time and see how long it last me and what the taste would be. read more

Tortilleria Sinaloa - Tacos de Carnitas - Mexican Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Just north of Fells Point is a small taqueria popular among locals. Walk in and order at one of two registers. Within 10 minutes, your order will be ready. There's a long window table, but most people get their order to go. Here's my experience: 1) Menu: It's large and includes tacos and other platters. My wife and I ordered the chorizo tacos. They were full of flavor, but more dry than other chorizo tacos we've had. They came Mexican style with onions, cilantro and salsa on the side. We also ordered guacamole, which is where we went wrong. It was way too limey and more watery than solid. It's among the worst we've had. Guacamole is a staple so it made us wonder about this place. 2) Service: It was friendly and quick. 3) Space: It's a quintessential taqueria with no-frills. It's perfect. read more

Echo what others have said - a gem!! My bf and I are always looking for a lot of quality food at a good price point because we eat a lot. We ordered 1 lb of carne asada meat ($19.50, a lil dry), 1 kilo of fresh, warm tortillas ($3, this was a little too much though but now we have more to make our own taco night), and we both got to eat a lot of tacos (yum!). It comes with onions, cilantro, limes, and green and red sauces - so it was perfect for assembling back at home! Pros: - online ordering was quite easy to figure out - simple, no frills menu! I would have given this place a 5 except for... Cons: - I paid $1.50 for a small guac which ended up being the size of the sauce cup (v small) -- it was truly shocking but I decided not to ask about it because the lady at the front wasn't too approachable. - Like another reviewer said, COVID precautions aren't taken too seriously here. The staff are wearing masks under their nose, they touch your credit card (a lot of places let you swipe your card instead to minimize contact), and they don't wear gloves. The lady at the front swiped my credit card with her bare hands and proceeded to reach into their bucket of limes with her hands to get the limes for our order and then help the next customer. I'm puzzled at why they don't just get a large ladle or wear gloves when they are putting together the food. Even in non-COVID times, I feel that using your hands to reach into the stock of food would be considered non-sanitary. Even despite this, I will be back when I am craving tacos. The Californian in me is happy. read more

Best. Tacos. In. Baltimore. BOOM! I was absolutely thrilled to stumble upon Tortilleria Sinaloa today while walking around Fells Point at lunchtime. I've driven by the shop before and have always wanted to go inside, today was my opportunity. I was welcomed by the woman working the counter. The chalkboard menu is not expansive but impressive all the same. The offerings were tacos, tamales, guacamole, chips, and some huevos dishes. All of the tortillas and chips are made by hand in house. I ordered two al pastor tacos (at a little over $5 each) and a pineapple jarrittos to wash it down. It's cozy but lively inside and the walls are adorned with framed accolades, awards, articles and such. The tacos came out quickly and were massive. So fresh and flavorful, I rudely licked my fingers after finishing every tasty morsel. They also provided two sauces on the side but admittedly I was too focused on housing the delicious pork, I didnt give a thought to using them. Such a good and tasty experience! I'm already bugging my husband about going back, he's been complaining about finding good tacos in Baltimore.... No longer! read more

The food is DELICIOUS! I really enjoyed my first time dining here. I ordered the Birria tacos and a fried pork taco. Both were very tasty. The food is seasoned well and very flavorful. The food was so good that I forget to snap a pic. Tortilleria Sinaloa is very easy to find off of Eastern Avenue across from Patterson Park. There is street parking and it was easy to find parking. Service was wonderful. I believe this restaurant is family owned. Everyone I encountered was pleasant and very friendly to me and my niece. There is a space to dine inside and there is also outdoor seating, or you can order to go. If you want authentic Mexican cuisine, check out Tortilleria Sinaloa. read more

I love their tacos but the last time I attempted to visit the doors were locked at 5:40. I called to check on what time they closed before driving 30 mins and they said 6 pm and to my dismay when I arrived they were inside with the doors locked counting cash. One of the employees came to the door and said the grill closed at 5:30. So make sure you ask the right questions before you show up! read more

Never disappoints. Babacoa and the fresh warm tortillas! Red hot sauce is home made and it HOT AND tasty! Love stopping here whenever I'm in the area read more

Years ago when I was on a kick doing my own nixtamal at home, this place came up as a fresh tortilleria. I so wanted to see what they were up to but never got up to Baltimore and over the years forgot the name of this place A couple months ago fate ( work trip and my boyfriend sending me a random list that included Sinaloa) finally got me here. Barely room to sit but popular. Small menu. Both good signs in my opinion. Tortillas=Phenomenal. Almost flour like consistency with the faintest whiff of alkaline corn. I don't know how they do this! -Pollo= Generous portion (tortillas are quite large!), fresh flavors, and well cooked. Definitely needs the compliment of salsa to pop. -Salsas= Serious punches of acid and chiles and herbs. Perhaps a bit understated (didn't impress on their own) but they went very well with the tacos without obliterating the taco and making it merely taste like whatever salsa you just squirted onto it. read more

THE REAL DEAL. I am here at least once a week. The food is so fresh. My favorite is literally everything. But on a normal day I like to get 3 tacos (carnitas, al pastor and carne asada) and then I will get a few tamales (one rojas And one pork). The tamales I save and eat in the morning with an over easy egg! The service is great and the food is always good. This restaurant is consistent with their food always being on point. read more

Tortilleria Sinaloa - Al pastor taco, tamale (Rojas and pork) - Mexican Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Authentic tacos and the tortillas are excellent! I always pick some up when I'm in the area.

I would say Tortilleria Sinaloa is a local hidden gem that you MUST try if you're craving tacos and other Mexican dishes. I've been here several times and each time I've just been blown away by the quality of the food. The tacos are huge and filling with the meat cooked and seasoned to perfection. You can see that they make their own tortillas in house as we as they have their whole set up and kitchen open that you can see as you walk in. read more

Doesn't look like much from the outside though don't let that dissuade you from stopping in. The menu is simple and perfect for grabbing a quick bite to eat for lunch or dinner, or for takeout. My wife and I had the chicken and carne asada tacos, guacamole and chips, and a pork tamale. The food was delicious and everything is freshly made there in the restaurant. There are a few counters for seating though you won't be sitting long, as we both devoured our food. We stopped in on a weekday afternoon and there was plenty of street parking and a parking garage not far from the restaurant. We've been looking for a go-to taco place and we can happily say that we found it. Definitely coming back! read more

You can't get a taco that good in Texas. I enjoyed the chorizo and egg breakfast taco so much that I went there twice in the five days that I was staying in Fells point. read more

The huevos con chorizo y frijoles (eggs with sausage and beans) is my favvvvorite breakfast food. It comes with tortillas and green/red hot sauces to craft into breakfast tacos. Can never miss on any of the other tacos either - Mexican street style with a hefty scoop of cilantro and onion. In the morning you can watch the machine crank out hundreds of fresh tortillas. They sell a half kilo for $1.75. Super soft, fresh, and way better than store bought! read more

Ordered some tacos there and the food was so good. It has great flavor and everything was well-prepared. Lots of stuffing and my husband really like the Chorizo Tacos. The salsa was so good and has wonderful flavor. It taste so fresh and fantastic. They have great portion size. Wonderful selection of tacos. read more

This is my tortilla place. They will sell you a kilo of tortillas for like 7 dollars. That's good eating for a week! And a great deal! I like to go in early in the morning and get a nice stack that is still hot. This is also easily the best tacos in Baltimore, and I will fight you on that. And by fight I mean eat tacos together in until you admit it. Very fresh ingredients and all around savory and tasty tacos. This is not a dine in kind of place, definitely take out. There is a small area where like three people could dine in, pre-covid. But it is very small. read more

You know - I've had tacos a lot of places, good places - expensive and on the cheaper side but still REALLY GOOD. South Philly Barbacoa in Philly, Clavel in Baltimore, King Taco (a chain) in LA.... And now this place. It was just ok. Juuuust ok. I don't really know how they climbed to the top spot in Baltimore - but I have to say I think they could have been better and cheaper. I got 2 al pastor tacos and 1 carnitas - the total came in at about $15 dollars. They were about the same as far as rating, a little on the drier side, decent flavor but nothing that blew me away. On the plus side, they had a decent amount of meat in them. What is also cool is it looks like the make tortillas on the spot. Still on the hunt for the best in Baltimore though... read more

Tortilleria Sinaloa's tacos are fine, sometimes its hard to make a distinction between what you are eating since they all almost taste the same. I have gotten the barbacoa, carntitas, lengua, and carne de res. The carne de res is sometimes dried out, all of them are ok, and filling if you want a hankering. Their roja is pretty legit as well. read more

This place was good. I might have been in here a bit too early, it was the weekend and just before lunch. I really wanted to try the butter poached fish tacos but they didn't have any because something was down to prepare them. My food was good. The salsa was good. Chips has no salt. So I guess totally authentic. I had carne and pollo tacos and took home a side of green sauce which was pretty good. I want to check this place out again and hopefully they will have the fish tacos. read more

Tortillas are bomb! Tamales are good. Regret to say the guacamole and tacos fall short. Really wanted to like it here. It's been on my list for six months, because it just has that legit vibe. And they apparently make the tortillas for many other local businesses- so I was thinking this place was the real deal. Tortillas are amazing. Super soft and tender and don't fall apart at all. that's a thing of beauty. But the meat in the tacos was just not flavorful. A classic taco doesn't need to have all kinds of crazy bells and whistles, but it does have to be packed with flavor despite the simplicity! We tried the carnitas Taco, al pastor taco, chicken taco, and one more (can't remember) and objectively, just lacked flavor. Tamale was tasty though. read more

Tortilleria Sinaloa - Pollo, carnitas, and al pastor tacos, each on two corn tortillas - Mexican Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Wonderful, homemade torilleria! ¡Que bueno! My date and I went to this shop on a cold day craving delicious tacos. I ordered a set of three: Barbacoa, pollo, and carne asada. My date got similar tacos. We ordered these with two Jarritos sodas and sat at a small marble bar looking over Eastern Avenue In Fells Point. The place is very small and was really busy. Here had to have been at least 12 people in and out do the building in the 45 minutes we were there, most of which were take out orders. The website for the restaurant allows you to order in. This place was very authentic. We got to watch one employee make fresh tortillas for tacos while we were there. It was a fun and unique experience, something you don't see often anymore. I will definitely come back for more food later on. I am considering having the restaurant cater, as they had great catering prices. read more

Took my dad. My dad has always claimed he has not found a place that he can say has good tacos. Which is why he doesn't eat out and just sticks to my moms cooking. Because 1) moms cooking is as authentic as it gets & 2) he BETTER say that lol.. I was very impressed when he told me the tacos were pretty damn good. This place is a tortilleria and the tortillas are made fresh at this shop. Only reason I gave it a 4 is because I like my tortillas a little dipped in oil or the meat juices when being heated. Also, gave it a 4 because nothing can top my mommas tacos‍ read more

Hidden gem! This little hole in the wall makes some of the best and least Americanized Mexican food you'll find. They also have excellent tortillas among other items you can take home. I only ordered some tacos and they were fantastic. No rice or cheese, just greens and chicken that tasted very fresh. The tortillas you take home dry out very quickly so you have to keep them sealed in an airtight container or bag and also re-hydrate them with paper towels when using beyond a few days. The tortilla chips are also excellent, not a lot of salt and a simple flavor but a very satisfying snack. Overall highly recommend and wish I'd discovered this place sooner. read more

This small restaurant hit the spot perfectly when we stopped in for lunch. While they had ran out of some options earlier on, the available tacos we chose were big and delicious. I would recommend getting 2 if your hungry, or 3 if you're really hungry. My favorite from all the tacos I tried was the shrimp taco, closely followed by the fish taco. We also tried the guacamole and chips. While you get a ton of guac, u think it could use a bit more salt, lime, and tomatoes. It's good tho, give it a shot! I loved the hot sauces they offered. The green is mild and tasty, the orange is pretty hot (caution). All and all I liked this small taqueria and look forward to coming back very soon! read more

The food is very good, MUCH MUCH BETTER THAN NEW YORK CITY TAQUERIA everything we order WAS wonderful. It is the second time I go to this establishment. The only thing that is not very good is that it is too expensive and there is nowhere to sit when it is a large group. I recommend it if you like good food or good mexican tacos fresh tortillas fresh an good spicy salsa loved i will come back again read more

Wow, this place was so amazing! Never visited prior to today but boy am I happy that my husband brought me here! The tacos were so authentic and so delicious! Great flavor & very filling. I had two carne asada's (steak) and one fish! They were OUTSTANDING!!!! I'm not usually one who likes pico de Gallo but theirs was amazing as well! They gave us plenty of fresh limes to squeeze over our tacos! I washed everything down with a delicious pineapple Jarrito's soda! The service was quick and everything again was just amazing! We will definitely be back in the very near future! There was also a large window overlooking Eastern Ave where we sat and ate our food. Very nice ambiance although this is definitely not the place for groups. If you're stopping in with a friend, it's perfect! Do yourself a favor and try this place! You won't regret it! read more

Tortilleria Sinaloa was absolutely delicious! I'm still thinking about my meal. The al pastor taco was stuffed with meat and full of flavor. The tamale was soft and the chicken was super juicy. The green salsa on the side paired perfectly with both items. A total hit for affordable, delicious, traditional Mexican food. read more

When I go on a date with a girl of a similar mindset to me (or boy), it ends in Sin. When it happens in Hawaii, I Sin-aloha. This restaurant has nothing to do with that. What to get: Barbacoa, Chorizo Tacos Next door to the best Horchata and Tacos in Baltimore (Cinco De Mayo), but not suffering at all, in fact TS (I mean this restaurant) is more famous and successful than its neighbour, perhaps because it has a more Americanized decor and is more of a restaurant than a hole-in-wall despite its tiny size (tiny size is rarely a good thing, right?). The tamale was a little dry, but the Barbacoa taco was heavenly, and I've tried the Chorizo in the past and that was always really good too. Well worth a stop, and not too pricey, although not too cheap. Wonderful service from a very flirtatious Chica Mexicana, and all things considered, in a city without the greatest food choices in the world (compared to NYC and Buffalo, for example), Sinaloa must score a 5. It would be a Sin not to give it a 5, but if I have bad experiences in the future, then Aloa it. read more
