33 Best Mexican Restaurants near Sparks Glencoe

“250828 - By the time we reached Sparks, the muffins had begun to take effect; we were low on fuel, having come off the highway, aware wet were close to ‘Empty’ in unfamiliar country. Nervously looking for a gas station, ambling along our way back to Canada after a week in the capital. Some said we were brave to visit, we never minded, soaked it all in, we were just there to check on our American cousins, see how y’all were making out in a rather turbulent time. Loved the rolling countryside and gorgeous homes in the area - hmmm…a preserve of the ‘horsie set?’ we thought. Now, even lower on fuel, we caught the sign and stopped at TFS. We surveyed the place, quirky storefront and round the back which felt surprisingly, decidedly chill. Straightaway, we struck up a conversation with a friendly physical therapist, because we’re that kind of chatty. Had a spontaneous, lovely and wide-ranging chat including the whole family. A delicious milkshake, I think a cookie, and couple washroom breaks later, our new friend sent us on our way to the Exxon down the way and a nearby turnoff to get us back en route to the north land. Felt really good to meet a kind helpful soul along the way, the kind of people we wanted to show the kids, and we somehow knew we would certainly meet on our drive into NY, PA, MD, VA, DC. Now back in the land of the silver birch, home of Lord Stanley’s sport and the ‘double-double,’ I am just reading about your late friend Rosa and how much she’d touched you all and your beloved TFS :) Nice lil place. Glad we got to stop by and say hello :) Best regards, hope to see you again“

“I dined there for the first time tonight, and I was pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere is quaint, cozy, and perfectly decorated. The first two drinks that I got were absolutely amazing, as they were custom-made. We also tried a flight of tequila, which was also very delicious. We both got an entrée each, and got nachos and queso. It was all absolutely delicious. The waitress kept coming back to check on us and was very attentive. Thank you for a lovely evening. We’ll be back!“

“Malfi, Alex and the crew are amazing! I've known them since the mid 2000s when we all worked there at one point in time. Coming back today while i was close by sound some movie detailing work, it is great to see such a clean, well ran business and still holds down the fort! Malfi took my order, the service was very prompt and food was ready a minute after my arrival. Boy oh boy, I haven't had a burrito ultimo in a LONG time! Especially enchilado style! Super consistent. Warm bold sauce and cheese on top with a full and very fresh meal full of rice, veggies, baja salsa and all. Cravings fulfilled! Excellent service! Chipotle and Qdoba couldn't touch Baja Fresh with a 10 foot pole lol. Thank you! Signed- A forever customer 😇😎👌🏽✅🏆“

“Randomly driving through Timonium on our way back to PA we were looking for food. Fuentes showed with good reviews and we stopped. Now once a month (sometimes more) we drive an hour back to Timonium for amazing food. We’ve even brought family down here. The italian food is plentiful and tasty but the fish and shrimp tacos are our favorite. A lovely couple owns the place and they cook all the food and they’ve always been kind to us. We hope to come here for many more years.“

“What a find! A friend and I were planning on going to another Mexican restaurant, but they were closed. We just happened to pass by this one and decided to take a chance, and we're so glad we did! The restaurant was bustling, but we had no problem finding a seat. The staff was friendly and helpful and the plates were huge, tasty and the prices were amazingly inexpensive. I would definitely recommend Taqueria La Mexicana for cheap and authentic Mexican food!“

“Love Taco Bravo. They have some of the best authentic Mexican food in town! We often order carryout since we live close by. My only suggestion is that they have someone organize their menu for an on-line presence. It is a little hard to view all items with just viewing an image of their menu.“

“Fast, friendly, and delicious. We went twice today and had the same great service with different staff.“

“Most authentic Mexican food truck in the area. Everything is made-to-order, so it will take a few minutes for your food, but it is well worth the wait.

Do yourself a favor and check this place out the next time you are in the area...they blow away every chain store around.“

“We ordered on door dash. Everything was so very good! Can’t wait to order again!!“

“I want to update my review. I sincerely apologize to Big Cheese. My order was delivered but found out someone else took it
They did nothing wrong.
I ordered today. They said it was delivered but was never delivered. Nothing I can do I am at my money and I am out my food. I called. They were rude. Sad thing is I can watch on the camera to see if and when it was delivered.“

“Im a non Hispanic American. They speak English! This is the BEST REAL MEXICAN RESTAURANT..OMG. the food is good. I would never go to Qdoba ever again..the amount of food they give is huge and for less money with authentic taste!!! Best Papusa. Best Quessdillo I've wver eaten. Best sweet buns too.“

“Love, Love,Love the Enchiladas Suprema..no beans though, shrimp substitution..😊“

“We used to go to the Cockeysville location every other week before they closed, and this one is no different - large portions, great food, and ready quick!“

“An absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, the service is phenomenal—the entire waitstaff, especially our wonderful waiter Claudia, is exceptionally polite, welcoming, and attentive. The food is out of this world and packed with authentic flavor. The tacos and burritos are delicious, the sizzling molcajete is a must-try, and the fish is cooked to absolute perfection. Whether you're craving a quick bite or a full feast, this place delivers an unforgettable dining experience. Highly recommend!😋“

“I've been eating at this place since it was in a tiny dive in Randallstown. The food is still as good as always with classics like the Mexican pizza with taco meat or Mexican fries with taco meat, spicy chimichanga..it's the best comfort food there is!“

“Very nice and friendly workers. They do not skimp on the bowls, and the ingredients are always fresh and tasty. The rice is never hard or undercooked, and the chicken is well seasoned and hot. I go here once a week for lunch and have never been let down! Attached bowl size for proof:“

“The food was authentic and delicious!!! I / We will return���“

“I wanted to give a big thank you to the manager today! (Kicking myself for not getting his name.) I made a big mistake on my pickup order and this gentleman made it right and didn't charge me extra! Not only that, he was very courteous. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. We will be back.“

“One of the best sweet plantains I’ve had (Salvadoran style), and large portions for sides. The atmosphere is my favorite part. Very clean and homely with the walls littered in home plants and other bric-a-brac; like I’ve been invited over for dinner in their home. I would have given 5 stars if the chicken and yuca were a little less dry. With that said, I’ll be coming back!“

“can’t say enough about my experience at the York Road Taco Bell. The quesadilla I ordered was nothing short of divine. each bite was packed with cheesy, savory goodness that melted in my mouth. The soft taco was an absolute masterpiece. the tortilla so soft and fresh it felt like it was made just for me, delivering the perfect balance of flavors in every bite. And those four cinnamon delights? Pure magic. Each one was a little burst of sweet, warm cinnamon goo that literally melted on my tongue, leaving me craving more. The best surprise of all was when my dad secretly ordered me a Pepsi. finding out I had a whole cold, refreshing drink waiting for me was the cherry on top of an already amazing meal. Sure, they mixed up my brother’s order entirely, but honestly, my meal was flawless, and that’s what really matters. This place deserves every one of these five stars. maybe even a 6 or 7. I’m smiling just thinking about it.“

“Hands down my favorite Taco Bell location! The staff here is consistently top-tier, but today’s cashier went above and beyond. He was extremely friendly, attentive, and made sure I was completely taken care of. It’s rare to find service this genuine and generous nowadays. Big shoutout to the team for always taking such good care of their customers!“
