50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Annapolis Junction

“Fiero Mexican grill is a great little place with good food and great prices, that is tucked in to the National Business Park. If you're looking to get away from cafeteria food (and it's not "food truck day") rest assured that you can always get a good meal here. I've gotten tacos and burrito bowls, which are great but my go-to is one of the burritos. I favored chicken and al pastor, but the other meats are good too. There's a variety of seating options including bar, traditional table, and booth, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. I've gotten to the point where I arrange NBP business midday (so I'll "just happen" to be driving by Fiero around lunch time ;)Parking: Parking is right outside the door.“

“This place came recommended. Great food, I wish the server spoke English. It could've made things a little easier. That's why I only get four or five stars. Yes, it's very authentic. However, I wish communication could be better. For example, when she brought my food, I asked for a side of sour cream. And then she said OK instead there. I never received my sour cream. I had the "Fajita Classica," with chicken. Tons of flavors with the grilled veggies. I will return, looking forward to trying other things here. The menu was very appetizing.“

“My first time trying this place, I was on my way to work running late...stop to grab tacos to go...but I sat down to eat just ONE taco and told myself I'll save the rest for work....a long story short, i ended up late for work because i couldnt stop eating the rest of my food...the food was so good i couldnt get UP, i had to finish the rest, it was so DELICIOUS...!!!! BEST TACOS IN LAUREL!! ?“

“If you love delicious, authentic food. You've found the place!Sabor Chapin Offers amazing service, delicious food I highly recommend the Carne Asada! Compared to other local Taquerias, Sabor Chapin has Columbia’s top most flavorful tacos, and Carne Asadas! Their pasta is absolutely delectable too. The best part you get exactly what you pay for and honestly more. I recommend Sabor Chapin to everyone and not one person has disagreed on how amazing the food is. Amazingly the man who runs the show is the chef himself!I so highly recommend and support his small business. I hope to see him open his restaurant soon.“

“The food here is a solid five. Saw this Taqueria and wife and I decided to give it a try. We had Empanadas, Steak Quesadilla and the fabulous Tripleta Sandwich. All 3 were very delicious, especially the Tripleta sandwich. Why couldn't I have found this Taqueria sooner.“

“Food is absolutely AMAZING. The only 2 things: Resturant is extremely small and tight. Everyone that came in was getting TO GO orders, and they only had 1 or 2 waiters for the whole restaurant. I get that it's small, and the 2 waiters they have are good, but they are the only 2, and they can't do everything for everyone so waiting to order or get drinks, silverware is a little challenging especially if the restaurant is busy!“

“This use to be the old Applebees I think but it's handling it's business very well! It's Sunday and not a table around! The bar was stocked with patrons but our wait was t long at all. Once seated a very nice waitress approached and gave us menus. We asked for recommendations and I really like that she took the time to ask us what was our preferred choice of spirits so she could offer us something based on our preferences-BIG KUDOS! My selection of the Cancun Margarita didn't disappoint! It comes in an actual pineapple with plenty of liquor but not overpowering! The guacamole was supposed to be made table side but it was so crowded she couldn't get down the aisle with her cart! Although I like that experience as you're able to ask them to add a little more lemon or such/such but it was GREAT! We chose the queso with ground beef but that isn't anything special with that. I did see a Snapper on another table that I want to try with my next visit! Parking is great(in the shopping center lot) prices are reasonable and the staff all seem to care. Everyone chipped in on duties the manager even came around to tables thanking patrons for being there. Bathrooms were clean and easily accessible even under the influence of 2 of those drinks(had a little stumble ) and oh yes they sneak up on you so don't be like me and choose more than you should. Overall, I can see myself driving back here for happy hours or even a late night meal! Another table had some Mexican Candy shits( these weren't regular shots though) those WILL definitely be the first drink on the next visit!“

“Honestly little hidden gemIncredibly clean place, authentic Mexican food, good prices. Don’t expect the same things you might find at Mi Rancho. This is much betterEnded up here on a break for breakfast between some work nearby, and I am very happy I did. Big man promise you’ll enjoy yourself“

“THE BEST Mexican food you are going to find in Maryland! I have been coming here almost everyday for my lunch just to try a different dish and every single one has been DELICIOUS and authentic! I am so happy to find this here considering I have moved here from Calirfornia!!! This is amazing“

“Been meaning to try this place for a while and I'm glad we did. We ordered chips and guacamole, tacos, and a steak chimichanga. The guacamole was smoother with a blended texture and very tasty. The steak chimichanga came smothered in a choice of either salsa verde or rojo. I picked the verde and that also was very good. I expected the tortilla on the chimichanga to be fried so was surprised when it wasn't, but it was tasty anyway so no harm done. My friend said their tacos were authentic, with the favorite being the carnitas. They have a variety of sodas and other drinks in their refrigerator case that looked interesting. I got a Vietnamese mango drink called Oh Fresh which was good.“

“I was craving empanadas and got the cheesy beef empanadas. No regrets there, they were truly excellent. The worst part was they were ready so fast by the time I picked them up they had cooled a bit. Came with chips and salsa. The chips were seasoned and the salsa had the right amount of kick to it. This was my first visit but it surely won't be my last.“

“What a PLEASANT SURPRISE! My wife and I frequently go to this out of the way shopping center for three stores: Ollie's, Mom's and a Goodwill Thrift store. We always pass Pollo Fiesta on the way in but never ate here before this visit. First things first, I am GLUTEN FREE and MANY "Peruvian" or South American rotisserie chicken places marinate the fowl in BEER (cerveza) and/or use soy sauce in seasoning...this prohibits the delightful pollo from my diet! The wonderful young lady who was managing Pollo Fiesta the day we were there assured me that the chicken was hand rubbed with a gluten free seasoning blend. Both my wife and I LOVED it! I had a side of black beans that were good. NOT GREAT, to me, because I am used to Cuban black beans that are seasoned differently. My wife had a side of plantain that she loved. This restaurant does not offer much in the way of ambience. But it IS very suitable for a family with young kids! The service is wonderful! I highly recommend this restaurant!“

“4th or 5th time trying out Bubbakoo's, have not had a bad burrito yet! You do start to develop your favorites, but it's been nice to try a variety ? The nachos could be a meal all to themselves, so if you order both that AND a burrito, prepare for a "full day." I like to treat myself to Bubbakoo's on Fridays as a "you've made it to the end of the work week" reward.“

“We stopped here both going (lunch) and returning (dinner) on a day trip to Baltimore. The Burrito was easily a 10/10. It fed both my wife and myself (we are not big eaters) and was a terrific value. For dinner we had tacos which I rate 9/10 and a pupusa which was just decent. Easy parking and nice picnic tables. Easy access to I-95. I expect to visit a lot.“

“Where does this fat kid begin when all the food was banging?MENUDO!!!! An absolute flavor explosion.Follower by the Carne Asada tacos where were in top 3 taco experiences and I eat a lot of tacos.Then the lingua and the Al Pastor.The rice and beans were also elite. All in all putting this on my go to list.Also, and almost as important as the food the high chair game was on point and plenty of parking.“

“The food was delicious. I used to order food from here previously when I lived closer but this was my first time going in person. The shrimp street tacos are my favorite. The prices are great and the service was good as well (i even overheard another customer being very difficult and the server handled it with grace and patience).“

“The best mex food look no further! Probably the best tacos I ever had, especially al pastor tacos! I work close to this truck and it’s hands down the best Mexican food! It’s everyones favorite in our large lunch group! Burritos, tacos, fajitas, and nachos all highly recommended! Seating is close to the road but it’s worth it for the quality, or take it to go and sit in a near by park.“

“This place made my little Texan heart so happy! Our family came on Valentine’s Day & enjoyed complimentary chips & salsa, tasty TexMex (My cheese enchiladas were perfect!), and I got to introduce my MIL to sopapillas (these were much smaller than what you find in Texas but still delicious).I often long for TexMex but between the expense of restaurants and the high chance of being disappointed, I rarely venture out. We’ll be back!Kid-friendliness: Easy- going atmosphere with kid chairs & menu (kid meals <$10)“

“Outstanding Mexican food truck that gives you all the flavor of a taco truck on the west coast. The carnitas tacos were not dry unlike a lot of local taco joints and the birria tasted almost exactly like home. Whatever you are eating here, pour that red salsa on top, it is incredibly flavorful.“

“First time experience was fabulous! Fresh good, tasty and at a great price (about 20 bucks for what's pictured). I'm full and haven't finished the meal (there's rice under that chicken). So glad this is in my neighborhood!“

“I love this place ! Food is fresh and authentic. The manager and staff is always super helpful and friendly. I work in the area and usually go during my lunch break at least 3x a week. I recently had a gathering and ordered the 20 taco tray for 37 bucks and it was a total hit !“

“Love this place! I’ve been coming here for a couple years and have always had a great experience. The family that runs it is so lovely and they always brighten up my night. I’ve tried most of the menu and it’s all delicious. Recently they started making horchata and it’s incredible.“

“Ordered the chicken breakfast burrito w/ avocado inside and it was incredible. The burrito couldn’t stay closed with how much stuff was inside of it. Everything well seasoned and free.I’m not a fan of the red salsa, but the green is very good.I will be returning and will get a picture next time.“

“This place quickly became one of our family's go to eateries when they first opened. I've had a different meal each time we've gone here and every dish was delicious. We have gone probably ten times so far. Atmosphere is great and even better now after the remodel. The service is sometimes slow, but the staff are always friendly and helpful. The drinks are a little pricey too. I just paid ten bucks for a shot of Jack Daniel's on Friday. Most other places that would be between 6-8 bucks. Highly recommended Acapulco though.“

“Food was really good. I didn't love the flavor of the carnitas taco but it wasn't bad. The huarache was also much thicker than I am used to but still a great item to try. The carne asada and al pastor tacos were amazing! They are served with some generously cut cucumbers and radishes for a nice fresh bite too. Loved it. The horchata was great too“

“I loved this place so much! Especially the Queso. It was the best Queso I have ever had! The service was amazing and so was the atmosphere. Everything about It was amazing and there was nothing there that I disliked. I definitely enjoyed this restaurant and recommend it!“

“I have been going to this restaurant for 20 years and have always enjoyed the food but the last few times the food was mediocre. It just does not have the flavors it once had. The shrimp fajitas has absolutely no flavor. This was my go to dish for years. I am afraid the quality of the food here has gone down hill. Too bad because I use to love this place to go for Mexican food. ?“

“Carne Asada was nicely cooked tortillas frescas , cebolla y cilantro with your tacos , salsa Verde was good and very nice people. Five tacos cost me $18 but they are decent size with a decent amount of meat! Good place coming again for my Taco fix when I go to MD again.“

“Great food, atmosphere and service. Had dinner here with my wife one evening and we were very pleased with this food establishment. I had the Wet Burrito w/ Steak, Black Beans & Rice and Plantains. All were delicious. The serving staff was friendly and accommodating and the place was very lively.“

“Saw this place had good reviews online so decided to try it out and it didn't disappoint! Service was fast, food was delicious and staff were friendly. Tacos came with a red and green sauce which both were tasty. Will definitely be back!“

“Went today and had a taco salad and it was great!! Just the right combination of ingredients and was hit and NOT greasy. Server was very attentive and was watching as she removed the plate soon after finishing and stopped by a couple of times to see if everything was ok. Definitely will be returning“

“Excellent place, the drinks are very good, the bartender Luis was very friendly and the manager Walter is the best, I am visiting Maryland and I do not regret having visited this restaurant, if you visit Laurel in Maryland, visit Chibal restaurant.“

“Finally a perfect meal! Love this spot but the food has been so salty!!! Service is pretty good. The ambiance is okay little dated but very clean. So finally learned to ask for no salt on the food & it was PERFECT!! Still full of flavor!!“

“Visited here numerous times. The staff is friendly and we enjoy talking with the servers from varied Central and South American countries. The Hawaiian fajitas are great. During our first visits, the servers were more attentive, asking if we wanted more to drink and that type of thing. Over the past few visits, even when there might only be one other party in the restaurant, our server (a different person during each visit) has left my glass go empty and seldom stop by to check on us.“

“This experience was awesome. The hostesses were pleasant, Elsa the manager was professional and personable. Once seated and settled, our waitress Reagan was polite, friendly, and attentive to our specific needs. Even though I could tell how busy she was, she still made time for moments just to chat with our table for a bit which I always appreciate because it makes you feel welcomed. Elsa later returned back to our table to check on us and she even allowed for me to taste one of their freshly made tortillas. That's customer service at its finest. I will be returning and I recommend this location.Vegetarian options: The cauliflower (veggie) bowl was very tasty and flavorful. I didn't expect to like the taste of the cauliflower but I was wrong it was really good. I also was able to customize it by adding things and removing things with ease.“

“I love this place. Used to go to Tippy's Tacos in College Park....for many years, and only realized the connection about 10 years ago. I don't go anywhere else for tacos or any Mexican food. Their guacamole is top notch. Even the sodas are good! I like the low key atmosphere and the staff are quite nice. Toucan Taco is the best place to go if you want good food, low key atmosphere and good people.“

“I have been here a few times now since its pretty close to where I live. The food here is good, the ingredients fresh, and the staff is always friendly. I usually order between burritos and bowls depending on my mood. They have a variety of different hot sauces on a shelf you can choose from. Great place for a quick bite to each on a lunch break.Also their burritos are MASSIVE. You WILL be full.“

“eunice,with all respect to your review but no where in the area red-snapper cost $13.99 a red snapper wont cost you less than $30 in any type of restaurant from low end to high end. living cost are going up every day. prices are difficult to maintain always the same. i’m a customer that have been visiting from a longtime and have seen the prices changes but the quality and quantity of my food will never change. if you want to maintain the quality of the of a good product you pay for it.Food is definitely good BUT the prices you see on the menu ARE NOT what they charge you.$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$Food is definitely good BUT the prices you see on the menu ARE NOT what they charge you.I ordered a fried fish and they asked me if I wanted tilapia or red snapper, I said snapper. The menu showed 13.99 for tilapia, so I figured the snapper would be around that price, they charged me $25 for that plate. Not even in a fancy restaurant they charge that much for fried fish.Pupusas are 2.75, they are good.Tacos are 3.75, also good.The lady who cooks and serves is nice and it would’ve been a great experience if it wasn’t for the overcharge.If you show a price on the menu commit to it, or just adjust the prices. Easy.“

“The food was bland. The blandest I’ve ever tasted in my life. The Birria tacos were $10 and came with two tiny tacos and a small container of Birria sauce I couldn’t even get my taco into. No garnishes or sides or anything. Waitress never came back so had to go inside to ask for our check. She never gave us our water. Never checked in (I planned on asking for hot sauce at least to try to taste something besides sour meat) and the I truly believe the drink had zero alcohol in it. The overly iced glass not even filled $10 sangria. I will never step foot in this place again. Everything is bland and overpriced. People I was with complained of the same things. The waitress was so high she sat in the “bathroom” most the time we were there (that’s where the hostess stated she was if you ever need to find her) This is the first time in my life that the people I was with and I left with everyone not even eating a quarter of their plates and thirsty. And that says a lot seeing the tiny portions smh I miss the old restaurant that was there :(“

“they are the best food truck I've ever come across. I found out about them from working in the area. I tried them once in January of 2023 and literally go at least 1/2 a week now, I'm a bit obessed. they move so quick and are so kind! if you haven't tried them your missing out! and the birria tacos are the best!!“

“I love a good authentic food spot. I've been here twice before, and as they say 3rd time's the charm. And believe me when I say that Original Burrito with steak and my girlfriend's Steak Quesadilla were phenomenal! It lasted maybe 5 minutes after I got home cause I was left wanting another. The green salsa that came with it was the perfect accent to my Burrito while my Gf's Quesadilla was so rich she couldn't finish it. To top it all off, the Passion Fruit drink we got was a sweet elixir that helped the food go down and soothe the palette. I'm no food critique, but this spot is a definite 10/10 spot.“

“Authentic Mexican cuisine! The preparation and the food itself was just like how it was when I went to Mexico. The staff is very nice, the atmosphere is very good, it is spacious, has Mexican decorations, and two TV’s in case you want to watch Mexican news / US news in Spanish or Mexican Soccer. There’s also a panadería / bakery in the restaurant with some delicious pastries. I really recommend Tacos al Pastor, or anything, honestly their food is so good!“

“Had my first visit to Banditos Columbia yesterday afternoon and it will be the first of many. My husband, friend and I had wonderful Happy Hour drinks and delicious tacos at the bar. The staff were really friendly and efficient - big shout out to Kyle (even though he is a Tottenham fan) and to Egypt. Both of you were wonderful,?“

“This is not a Restaurant, if you look for the place there is a house that apparently sells beer, on one side you will see a white food truck and this is where you have to order the variety of dishes they offer.The price-quality-flavor are very good and they are very worth enjoying either right there on some tables that they have which would be uncomfortable in cold weather because it is outdoors, so it is better to order to go.“

“I did NOT hear about this place on TIKTOK. I saw a few Yelpers post about it and decided to try it out, but I kid you not, people were coming in here asking if this was the TIKTOK Taco place--Que? Finding this location was hard, parking is small, and the area is not exactly the best (police officer is stationed inside due to the area's recent mishaps). We came here to celebrate a birthday and ordered tons of food and even dabbled in their dessert freezers (yes, they have four freezers of desserts to pick from). Each dish was fresh and full of flavor. It is the type of atmosphere where you feel as if you could just continue to order more and more while doing the happy food dance (work it off while ya eat, ya know?). But it is all so fresh that it is hard to stop eating! Tacos, tortas, quesadilla, gorditas, and birria were all amazing. We also tried nopal (cactus)--cooked perfectly. Don't forget to try the desserts! Flan, Tres Leches Cake, Fresas Con Crema, flavored Paletas (popsicles), Rice Puddling, Mangonada, and other frozen yummy treats.“

“This food truck has the best food. We have ordered burrito bowls, pork rib platters, and beef rub platters over the years. Everything and anything we order is seasoned well, tender, and well portioned. We will definitely keep coming back for more of this delicious food.“

“The chicken quesadilla needs better seasoning and the tortilla that does not harden so quickly or becomes hard and for the shrimp cocktail it needs more shrimp and less acids. That is a recommendation or tip so that you can improve in those dishes and more people come. Greetings and Happy Christmas and Happy New Year.PS: I will edit if they improve in those aspects.Vegetarian options: There are several vegetarian dishes without meat.“

“The atmosphere was fantastic and the food was outstanding. With my husband and daughters, we could have picked anything on the menu. I couldn't decide if I wanted breakfast or a pupusa. Next time, I will order the pupusas. The food presentation was awesome and we loved the owners. My youngest daughter is a picky eater and she actually wanted more. So, Angel Las Delicias Restaurant is a winner!!“

“Came here on a Monday afternoon for lunch and it was pretty quiet. The food is really good. I had the Mixed Fajitas ($16), which came with shrimp, steak, chicken, and tortillas. Everything was well seasoned and flavorful. The steak was a bit chewy, but it wasn't so bad. My favorite was the flautas ($10). It comes with 4 chicken flautas and avocado. The beef tongue tacos ($10) were delicious as well. You couldn't even tell it was beef tongue because it was so tender and packed with flavor. You can ask for their spicy sauce on the side that really does give a kick to all the dishes. The strawberry margarita was strong, but was a bit too sweet. They have a wide variety of Spanish beers and Jarritos. The service was fast. Since we were the only ones there, the bartender was very attentive to us. They also had a coin-operated ($0.75) pool table. The felt is a little worn out and the cue ball has some chips in it, but it's still playable.“

“This little spot is perfect for anyone in the BWI, Linthicum area. Two minutes from the hotels, plenty of parking, extremely fast service & incredible food ? I've randomly picked up carryout countless times over the years and they never miss ?Tip them well if you can, they deserve it ?“
