Mexican Restaurants near Burtonsville

“As with every Chipotle I visit, the tables were all dirty. I have never seen another food service chain with such consistently dirty tables. Surely corporate trains the managers on how to manage their employees' time. There never seems to be a shortage of employees at any Chipotle I have visited. Other fast food businesses work with fewer people and rarely have dirty dining rooms and overflowing trash cans (also a common theme at Chipotle restaurants). An easy solution would be to require each employee to wow tables, empty trash and check the floors and THEN go on break. It is also not unusual to see an employee eating in the dining room with this madness around them.

I have worked in fast food at several locations and know this company can do better.“

“I cannot express to you how much I go here, it's a great place for every meal, with a wide range of styles, I usually get a couple bean burritos, they're super cheap and quick, absolutely love the place

Vegetarian options: You can sub things out and into burritos/tacos to fit your needs

Parking: It's in the middle of a decent sized shopping center so trust me whatever time you go there, there will be parking, as for drive thru it does get a bit busy during the lunch rush but it goes really quick“

“I recently went for brunch and the French toast was out of this world — perfectly cooked, flavorful, and one of those dishes you keep thinking about after you leave. The whole experience was such a vibe. Great atmosphere, beautiful presentation, and bold flavors that really stand out. Definitely adding this to my go-to brunch spots!“

“I have been coming here for years. The food is great.“

“Authentic, delicious Oaxacan food! The owners are so passionate – not only is the food spectacular but you will also come away knowing so much more about regional Mexican cuisine. DC has needed a restaurant like this for a loooooong time. Go eat there and support them as soon as possible!!!“

“The Cadillac margarita was amazing and so was the chicken burrito bowl! The staff was very attentive and the food was priced well. very authentic and very amazing! 5 stars!!“

“The food was great, I had a California burrito and my wife had the quesadillas. Both meals were excellent and Christian did an excellent job preparing our food. He was clean, fast, gave good portions, and was very kind. Will totally go back again.“

“Love stopping by for a quick, fresh meal! The chips and guac here are a standout — creamy, flavorful, and perfect to share while you wait. Their veg rice bowl is tasty and customizable with lots of fresh toppings, and the guacamole adds a great creamy boost to every bite. A solid casual spot for Mexican-inspired eats with good portion sizes and vibrant flavors.“

“DMV Taqueria food truck is highly recommended! It’s smart to call in your order as they’ve grown in popularity as the word’s gotten out. My neighbor loves their chicken quesadillas. My favorite is the shrimp quesadillas, but honestly, you can’t go wrong with any of the menu items. I understand the churros are a favorite too, though I’ve not personally tried them. The drive home is brutal. The food smells so amazing, I can’t park the car fast enough. 5⭐️“

“After moving from Florida I have been tirelessly searching for a good taco place in Maryland. I was so happy to find Tacos A La Madre! When you go inside it is very under decorated, but clean and they have a good sense of branding with their black and yellow color scheme. The tacos are amazing, flavorful, and consistent every time I go. The ingredients taste fresh. If I had to choose a favorite, it would be the shrimp tacos and the birria tacos! 🌮 This is our new go-to taco place. You have to go- you won’t be disappointed.“

“First time trying them, I got the chorizo breakfast burrito. Overall could tell they use fresh ingredients and most of the burrito was very good. The Chorizo however was very very salty. Will definitely try them again, just something different next time.“

“The food was amazing. The service was exceptional and the people were incredible. They wanted our dining experience to be enjoyable“

“Luz (Peruana) nos dió buenas recomendaciones, nos encantó la atención, buen ambiente.“

“I kid you not when I say that this is one of the top ten Mexican restaurants of ALL TIME. Im pretty critical of food but I could not find a single thing wrong with the cuisine. I think I had an outer body experience by the time i finished my quesadilla. I would 112% go out of my way just to come here. If you ever need Mexican food in the college park area, look no further than here.“

“Great atmosphere, fantastic food“

“Delicious food. Great service.“

“Highly recommend! The food was to die for and the service was great! No wait time and everything was decently priced! My favorite was the aguachiles especial with salsa negra. The tuna and shrimp was also soo good. Tuna taste fresh and they have so many different hot sauces to compliment the dishes. The fish taco was crunchy but fresh at the same time and the beef taco was wrapped in a cheese filling - wow! Cannot wait to come back! I didn’t try any drinks but will be back soon!“

“Fantastic, fabulous, everything on the menu is amazing. Wait staff is really good as service and completely.“

“My family and I have been coming to El Azteca since I was little. The food and the service have always been excellent. When I think of going out for dinner with my family, I always picture El Azteca—always. Highly recommended 👌👌“

“First time coming here and I did a take out order. Store was very clean and staff was very friendly. I always get nervous trying new places because you just never know but I was happy with Bubbakoo’s. It reminded me a lot of how chipotle used to taste if you know what I mean. I will definitely be going back“

“Habanero’s is between the College Park Metro stop and campus. We saw it, evoked memories of one in Arizona with same name. We ordered Chicken Tinga Tacos, Chicken Taco, Beef Taco along with a Beef Tounge Taco along with Guacamole & Chips. Food was good, flavors top notch, service efficient and pleasant. Only observation was the portion of Guacamole was ‘light’ for $8.00. If back in College Park would return.“

“The food was absolutely amazing! I had beef fajitas, my aunt had the salmon with a wine sauce, my grandma had the carne assada, and my husband had a beef milanesa. I tried everyone’s food and loved all the plates. The meat was so juicy and tender! I have eaten at numerous latin restaurants over the years and this is definitely on top of my list. We received a tres leches cake for my grandma’s birthday and I can say it was the best one I’ve ever had. Just perfect 😍“

“Loving the quesadillas, guacamole and tacos so far. The crispy shrimp tacos were my fav.“

“This is the best Cafe Rio I've been to in the DMV. One complaint: they're not located closer to my house! The folks behind the counter were nice and cheerful. The food was excellent as always. Great portions and fresh. I'll be going to Cafe Rio for years to come!“

“La comida mexicana el ambiente y la atención 👌👌👌😉😉“

“No muy bien siempre. Me gusta comer allí pero. Cuando ordeno para llevar siempre pido mis tacos sin sebolla y sin silantro. Y siempre me le ponen. Y. No entiendo porque si claramente digo sin sebolla. Ni silantro. eso me molesta porque mis hijos no los comen y solo se echan aperder deberían de. Ser más atentos ala orden. Que uno ase“

“Been here a couple times. Waitstaff always super friendly and attentive. Large selection of food items that include the standard of what you'd expect from a Tex/Mex place. Menu also has some Salvadoran specialties that I've enjoyed each time.There isn't a lot of cost put into the atmosphere and fixtures of the restaurant, but if you are looking for some good food and service, this place is very consistent and remains one of my gotos.“

“Been my new favorite spot last few months. The Carne Asada or Chorizo taco VERY GOOD. And very well priced.“

“This restaurant is my go too spot. My favorite is the seafood chowder! The servers are always super friendly! I highly recommend!“
