“I tried De Cantera for the first time today. It was excellent. I’ll definitely eat here again.“

“Chipotle, Chipotle, Chipotle! I visited this location yesterday and asked an employee why they don't put more vinaigrette in the containers. He responded that the ingredients used to make it are quite unhealthy, so the small portion they provide is in line with health regulations. Am I overthinking, or was he just messing with me? Haha, because seriously 😐“

“best Mexican food in all of Westminster, probably all of Carroll county“

“Nearly every Saturday for the past 4 years we have been going to Ernestos. Yes, we are the old couple that sits in the same booth, orders the same food, and same drinks lol. Very exciting. I just wanted to take a quick second to shout them out. Their margaritas are amazing, their food is consistently great and the service is awesome. If you are looking for a locally owned great priced restaurant, look no further. Their happy hours are top notch and they give teachers a discount ❤️. Say hi to our girl Amy if you drop by.

“tasty and fresh food will go back“

“I've ordered a different item from the menu each time and have never been disappointed! Mi Casa is quickly becoming one of our regular spots!“

“This place is seriously amazing. The menu is huge, the workers are very friendly, and the food is always ready on time. They recently added a bunch of menu items and took off a few including the General Tso burrito, but you can still get it by customizing your own burrito. Homemade chips, salsa, curly fries, queso, chicken tenders, and every burrito I have had are all excellent. Tacos are superb. They even have fried oreos, and the best ones I have ever had! Their menu has something for everybody in your family. Truly one of a kind.“

“El hambienteuy sano y amigable y con muy buen servicio.“

“Over the past 6-months or so, I’m becoming a regular at Compadres restaurant and bar. The food has been excellent on several visits, and the staff and regulars are real nice. On this visit (Jan 2026), I was just stopping in for a quick brew before a long evening. I’ve known some of the staff here, so I knew I’d be comfortable. The bar staff remembered my usual drink, which is always a welcoming feeling. They have a full bar. And they remembered my favorite dish, which I’ve ordered here only once before! I love birria tacos, and they make a terrific recipe. It’s tender slow-cooked shredded beef with rich savory flavors too complex to know all the ingredients. The beef picks up the sweet smokiness of mild peppers, perhaps chipotle, deeply-marinated for hours with herbs that i will guess as cumin, thyme, and others, and caramelized diced onion. It’s loaded with some queso into a folded soft corn tortiila, which is soaked in the marinade, then pan or griddle-seared. Or maybe seared and then filled? Either way, it’s a deeply-colorful hand-held like a super-flavorful super-juicy quesadilla. This birria-dilla is served with a dark reddish consommé of all the flavors of the beef and the marinade, for dipping and dousing and generally risking your clothing to splashes, spills, and wild abandon. Compadres also served me freshly fried thin very-lightly-spiced tortilla chips with a zingy fresh chunky red salsa, and i realized that, without thinking, i was dipping the chips in that luscious consommé more than the salsa! I enjoy the food and the relaxed ambiance of this little place. They recently added a lovely terrifically-detailed mural by a local artist of a pueblo magico, a village of delicious food and good compadres. You know those friends who you always seem to visit at meal-time for a taste of whatever is simmering? These Compadres are those compadres.“

“I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant! The staff were extremely friendly, especially Ana and Maria are welcoming, and attentive. The service was quick and professional, and they made sure we had everything we needed. The food was delicious, and the overall atmosphere was comfortable and enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this place and will be visiting again!“

“This food was amazing. It was all home made and fresh, it was very authentic Mexican food , not Tex Mex. The atmosphere reminded me of when my husband and I were on our honeymoon. It was 2020, the middle of a pandemic and We drove from Maryland to California. We stopped in every state. New Mexico has very authentic Mexican food. My daughter in law is from Mexico, so I am familiar with the real Mexican cuisine. The staff was friendly, and hospitable. I am definitely recommending anyone who loves good food to check this place out. The birria tacos were fantastic as well as the chicken enchiladas. The verde sauce and freshly made tortilla chips were outstanding.“

“Great atmosphere, fantastic food“

“My family loves this Qdoba. We go here rather than some other close by places. The food is always fantastic. The staff is always happy. I don’t think we even pay extra for the guacamole. How awesome is that. I usually get the chicken, but sometimes get the beef. Either way it’s just great. I think it’s actually decently healthy if you choose the right options and stuff. Plus everyone, so I just need to eat a great tasting meal. I’m always looking for protein in this place is got it. They have special drinks like Jaritos there too if you have a little extra cash. Again, I think the prices are fairly reasonable and the food is just phenomenal so I would eat here. Although don’t come a lot because I’ll have to just wait longer in line probably.“
