I ordered Birria Tacos w/consome (beef) and Tinga Tacos w/rice&beans (chicken). Everything was very flavorful to our delight but too expensive. After a short ride home, the tacos were soggy so we had to add Tostitos chips inside of each taco before dipping them in the consome. The rice tasted like the parboiled variety (not a fan) so hopefully they change it in the near future. Glad to support a local business but not sure this will be my regular lunch spot due to the menu prices. The restaurant interior very nice, website design nice, Merch options nice and most importantly the flavors are delicious. read more

love big papis service is amazing and tacos are fire love the cakes everything here is good and made fresh

Good food and excellent service I would even recommend for vegans as well. The fries are delicious.

10/10 best Mexican restaurant I've ever been to. Been 3 times and it hasn't disappointed me. They were out of the hot Cheetos street corn but that's only because it's one of the best items on the menu. The churros are the perfect crispy texture and have a delicious caramel sauce drizzled over them. I definitely recommend the chicken tacos or carnitas but that's just a personal preference. The tacos come with 2 hot sauces, the green one is less spicy than the red. The only thing is that they don't have seating. But that perfect if you want to take it to the park for a picnic, eat in your car or just take it home for the family to enjoy. read more

I love getting dinner from here! I always get the big papi taco and chips with queso and I'm STUFFED. The food is so delicious and for $10, it a great meal! My only complaint the last couple of times I've ordered is that the amount of the queso has gone down significantly. read more

The first time off the chain but the second visit it was way to salty. Hesitating to give another chance. Got to work on consistency

Excellent tacos! Probably the best and juiciest tacos I've ever had. Service is very quick and friendly.

I ordered Birria tacos for my husband. He is not a big fan of tacos in corn tortillas. He told me repeatedly "THOSE WERE THE BEST TACOS I'VE EVER HAD". I also ordered the churros which were AMAZING and a vegan chorizo quesadilla which was also delicious. I love the quesadilla dipping sauce! This is my new favorite taco spot! read more

Best Darn Taco I have ever had. It is a corn tortilla which adds to the flavor. Super friendly, Super fast. Could use some picnic tables somewhere as there is no seating. read more

We last-minute ordered a huge amount of food for my son's birthday party. It was absolutely incredible and we got comments and compliments from everyone there about how good the tacos are. The owner of the company showed up with the food himself and delivered it to our house. He worked so hard to get it all done so quickly as we change the order multiple times up to the last minute. We've already been going here for a while for takeout food but catering just hit a new level of higher expectations. Thank you again! read more

Amazing! We had these for lunch this past week. The flavor just bursts..... We'll totally put this in our rotation of dining out stops. Yummy read more

Amazing!!! Best birria I have ever had. There was plenty of meat and sides. Hot when I picked it up. read more

Hidden location, but great food! I've had it twice already and I definitely plan on going back. I've had Birria in Cali, plenty of times. I can assure that Big Papi's has that touch to their taste, unlike nearly every other spot in Maryland that I've tried by far. read more

Foods delicious every time! No complaints there except they should really work on the packaging. Especially since they are carry out only... The broth for the birria tacos was so hot it melted the plastic container and spilled all over me getting it out of the car... ouch.. read more

So I just tried this place out, and will say, hands down, one of the best taco joints in Frederick Maryland! They are off the beaten path (not seen from a main road) but word of mouth goes a long way! It is absolutely, melt in your mouth good! I had their birria with consome, a side of rice and beans, and some of their sour cream. I was not disappointed! Go if you can, they are amazing! Thanks Boxcar Burgers for reping local businesses! You never disappoint! Big Papi's is no exception! And thank you Big Papi's for a delicious meal! read more

we recently moved to Frederick and wanted to try this place based on the reviews. The food did not disappoint. Excellent flavors and fair quantities. The service how ever can be improved a little bit. The restaurant has no seating and the service is pretty chaotic when busy. Everyone was standing around in an open area and there was no designated spot for pick up orders so it was a bit confusing and it took some time to get the workers' attention. The food definitely made up for it tho! Will definitely be back again. read more

I went there twice. Figured the first time could have been a bad day. Went again a month later and was disapointed. They didnt improve. Didnt even get any cheese on the tacos this time. On top of no seating I am going to have to pass on any more trips here. Tijuana $1 street tacos are hard to beat. Dont think papies will beat taco bell. read more

Best tacos hands down. They can take all money if I'm being honest. Very nice and professional staff as well

Big Papi's had some really great tacos. They were delicious, moist, and had great flavor. The only issue was the shrimp salad. The shrimp salad took forever and the staff seemed like they weren't sure what went into it. They kept looking it up and were telling each other "no that's not right" etc. That was a bit unprofessional. The salsa was also very watered down but the guacamole was absolutely to die for! read more

Great new location in downtown Frederick. A true Mexican restaurant that competes pricewise with chains, such as chipotle and other fast food chain restaurants. read more

we stopped here randomly and were shocked by how delicious the tacos are... simply tortilla, vegan chorizo, and pico and they were heavenly. came back for a burrito later in the week and it did not disappoint. Big Papi's is located in a random office park but it's close to the highway so we will definitely be back every time we pass Frederick! read more

Don't let the location/building fool you! It is in an industrial park where you might not expect a delicious restaurant to be found. Had to check this place out after I heard great reviews at work. A friend and I ordered the 3-piece Birria Tacos and oh my goodness!! We were not disappointed!! They were delicious!! They're stuffed with tender, juicy, flavorful shredded beef and come with a side of the consommé. Do not skip dipping it in the consommé!! Or drinking it as a soup-- it's that good! 3 were PLENTY! We each ate 2 and were stuffed. Ate the extra for lunch the next day. No seating inside. This is a carry-out only place. That's about the only thing that would make this place any better than it is! read more

Stopped in for lunch with my daughter who loves Mexican food. The rewards system was down but the lady went above and beyond to assist. Food was being prepared as we worked through the issue. Not skimpy on meat at all. We both ordered three carne asada tacos and they were overflowing with meat. The meat was seasoned perfectly. Definitely on my list of places to eat when I am in Frederick, MD. Keep up the good work. read more

Most amazing and authentic Birria tacos I've ever had. Quick and friendly service, and the interior is really cool.

Best tacos ever! Fast and quick service. Very flavorful. Great parking. Cheese is perfectly melted

Came in for the Ramen, but they don't do it anymore. Got the carnitas tacos and the chicken burrito bowl. Both were good, and I will be coming back to try more stuff. Only thing that bummed me out, the hot sause was not very hot, and tasted a lot like tomato. Either way, guys behind the counter were cool, and attentive. Will be coming back. read more

I realize COVID has trapped me in the state of Maryland for nearly a year, but I'm quite certain these are the best tacos I've ever had. Southern Cal, Arizona, Denver, Mexico... nothing compares! These win. If I've gone delirious from lack of travel, I can, at the very least, For Sure guarantee that these are the best tacos in Frederick, MD. Get the shrimp with guac. Flavor bomb. Unreal. Coming back. Everyday. read more

I made a mistake and ordered to the Hagerstown location!! The manager was kind enough to make the food at his location. It was so kind of him even though it was my fault for clicking the wrong button. The food was amazing and my boys can't wait to come back. Thanks again. read more

I wanted to love it. But it was just ok. I think so many are deprived of proper food that they clamor over this spot. It wasn't terrible. I would pay $10 bucks a taco if it were great. It was just ok though. Got birria tacos and carne asada tacos. The birria tasted a lil bland, and the tacos barely the standard onion, the limes were dried out, the birria juice was so so. And I got like 2 lil slices of radish. Would I go back if my coworkers were planning on getting takeout from there yeah I probably would but on my own probably never again. read more

The flavor is there but why am I paying $12 for 3 tacos?! I appreciate that they melted the cheese on the tortilla. The meats were all juicy and the flavor is there. However, the location is really tucked away, wouldn't really even know it's there unless you're looking for it. I do want to go back to try their pizza but probably won't be a regular lunch joint since there isn't much bang for your buck here read more

This spot was so bad I found a hair in my sauce and it was the worst tacos ever. The consume was literally just tomato sauce. Worst tacos ever. read more

Hunger satisfying, authentic tacos. Good amount of spiciness- not bland. Will be back to try more of the menu

The food taste great however, if you go there on a weekend, you will wait one hour to get your food do not walk in without ordering online first all you have to do is look at the countertop and look at how many orders are stacked up with bags, we didn't realize it And once we did, we realize there were about 50 orders in front of us read more

Out of the 3 most popular Mexican restaurants in Frederick this is by far our favorite and we won't be going back to the others again. Food was very fres and delicious!!! read more

Birria tacos are the only way to go! The elote corn wasn't bad either. Once you have Birria tacos you won't want regular tacos

Our total was over $70 for 2 taco meals chips and guac churros and delivery fee. The food was just okay. The steak tacos were better than the chicken one but in general they were both just okay. I couldve made better and more seasoned tacos myself at home. The best part of the meal was the churros honestly. Also the guac was filled with huge chunks of cilantro. As one of the people that hates the taste of cilantro they had so much cilantro on literally everything. It was more cilantro than avocados in the guac. read more

Great food and service! I purchased a ton of food for my staff for family meal and we all raved about the birria tacos! My burrito was clean and flavorful and everything was ready in just 30 mins. I received stellar service upon pick-up and the gentlemen behind the counter were friendly and helpful! Looking forward to returning, thanks Big Papi's! read more

Ooooooo damn! Their food choices are so delicious! Each time I come here, I order something different and never disappoints. My favorite is the Carne Asada tacos and quesadillas. read more

We have eaten here several times and I will say I am impressed with the consistency of the flavors. I love the shrimp tacos and the chips, queso, and salsa. The birria tacos are good and I can not wait to try the birria quesadilla. We will definitely be back to try the other items on the menu. read more

Great take out. Our food was delicious and authentic. Have returned twice since first visit and have to say my new favorite taco place!
