Wish I can give no stars Food was rushed I didn't get receive everything I ordered the salsa wasn't really salsa they gave me some type of greasy sauce they cooked meat in I'm a chef so I would know the difference my first experience was horrible gotta do better read more

Loved this casual and comfortable restaurant buzzing with happy people coming in for Taco Tuesday! We sat and started with chips and salsa, which we enjoyed. Their menu had a lot of really good options. We decided on the tacos, it was Tuesday, and had our choice: the steak and the carnitas! But I knew this was an authentic Mexican place because with our beans and rice on the tacos platter, there was lime! Loved the grilled onion and jalapeño on the platter too. We thoroughly enjoyed the tacos.. Lastly, the service was good. We were greeted by our server right away and we were always checked on by other servers. We enjoyed this local grill and for sure we'll be back for more on that menu! read more

Excellent service. Delicious food. The Pozole was good and a huge bowl with lots of meat. The birria and tongue tacos were very good. The Crofton location doesn't have a liquor license and pop is only served in bottle or can. read more

I'm overdue in updating my review, but it's needed. This place has definitely grown on me! The food somehow got better! The chips and salsa are free now, and the salsa is way better! It can be spicier than other nights depending on the ingredients, but it's always delicious. Taco Tuesday is so worth it! Just be warned, it can get crowded! But for $1.50 select tacos and pupusas, you can imagine why. The salsas continue to be flavorful and vibrant, the food is delicious and filling, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. And don't sleep on their Agua Frescas!! Refreshing!! read more

AMAZING place to eat. I wish I had one in my town. I was driving through to meet up with a friend and landed upon this place and WILL be revisiting every time for now on! The food was great, service was great, came out quickly, and the prices were the BEST I've seen for the quality. The menu also has a lot of options, I can't wait to go back! read more

I've decided that when I need a wife to cook for me this is where I will go. The food is fresh and the prices are reminiscent of pre-Covid times. Checked it out for a moms note out, went back with daughter, then back again with both kids. What caught my eye the first time was beef tongue tacos, beef head tacos, and a side of cactus. I don't consider this to be your Americanized Mexican restaurant. The service was great considering how busy they were with carry out orders. My second time there I thought I would try the ceviche... I'm normally not a fan of tomato bases but this ceviche was awesome for this meal and the next. Servings are hearty across the board. read more

No debería haber ni una sola reseña negativa aquí. Si no te place, sigue de largo. Para empezar, este es el único establecimiento mexicano en el que deposito mi dinero con total confianza. Los tacos son una verdadera obra maestra culinaria. No hallarás en ningún otro lugar unos tacos tan colmados hasta el borde, y aún menos con tal exquisitez. Soy quisquillosa para comer, y estando embarazada de seis meses, mi paladar es aún más exigente. Pero aquí, acerté de lleno. Cada oportunidad que tengo, pido tres tacos de lengua y tres de cabeza. Francamente, con dos tacos quedo satisfecha, pero, bueno, la gula de embarazo no perdona. Lo que distingue a este lugar no es solo la calidad de los tacos, sino también el precio: insuperable. Es un auténtico dos por uno. Y no hablemos de los Martes de Tacos -- el festival gastronómico definitivo. Si te aventuras por la tinga y la carne de res, te aseguro que estarás en plena celebración. Si pudiera conceder 10 estrellas, lo haría sin titubear. Lugares como este deberían proliferar, opacando a esos otros que solo ofrecen mediocridad. Y para que quede claro, ¡no cap! read more

This place is so inconspicuous. A Mexican restaurant next to a 7-11. What are your expectations? I had none, and what I got was the best everyday Mexican food I had in MD thus far. Nothing fancy, but good fundamentals. I stop by here every time I'm nearby. You should too. read more

I have been to ElCabrito several times before. It was always pretty good. Prices are pretty good. Food pretty good. But. Just went and got a steak burrito, like I always get. I found a FINGER NAIL in my burrito. It was actually in my mouth. There's no possible way that was an accident. The only thing I can think of is that someone did this on purpose. I don't want to get into racial conspiracy theories, but it seems like.... Anyway. I will not be back. Gross. Never again. read more

Forewarned by reviews, I knew that I had to order at the counter, so that was no problem. Then DGD and I just picked out a booth and someone brought paper napkins with silverware. I wish I had thought to ask for water; DGD got a bottle of soda & I didn't have a drink. Not a big deal, just something to know in future. I ordered 2 carnitas tacos & was very pleased with them. I only ate 1 because the order of chips & guacamole came first & I *may* have pigged out a little. ;) The carnitas were perfect: slightly crispy edges, moist and tender morsels with just the right spices. DGD loves birria, so she ordered a quesadilla, not realizing it was a combo meal. The plate was huge & filled to overflowing. I benefited from the dollop of sour cream, which she doesn't eat, just to augment the already yummy carnitas. As expected, she only ate about half of her food so there was a lot to take home. She ate some rice (it was OK, nothing special) but no beans. The dollop of guac was added to our leftover from the appy. The birria was excellent & she enjoyed some the next day. I must say, we were both impressed by the guac; it was, as she said, "Like when we make it at home!" Hearty chunks of avocado instead of blender-smooth. Fair prices & a small but adequate free parking lot. And as she also remarked, "Dad says you can tell a good Mexican restaurant if we're the only white people in it." True story. read more

The quality and taste of the food was excellent! Size was perfect for the price. My kids loved their food as well.

I really want to love this place as their food is very good, but it seems like a mission of theirs to mess up my order just a little bit each time. I'm not sure how it happens but out of the 6 or 7 times I have been there my order has been incorrect 90% of the time. They are the nicest people and the restaurant is always clean and kept up, so maybe that's why I keep going back. Please go and enjoy and I hope your experience is better than mine have been. read more

I would this one million stars because it's the best food in the world. The Biria is so good, I would highly recommend it

The food is good, but the service sucks. Twice I've been here, and it's awkward from the time I walk in until I leave. They have seating, but i'm not sure if I seat myself or wait. First time I sat myself, and then had to walk up and go get a menu. Right before I walked up to order the waiter came. The second time they just looked at us, and my wife was able to ask them in spanish. My son looked at me and stated that our waiter seemed as if he didn't want to be there during our meal, and i totally agreed. Hopefully they get it together. Maybe i'll tap back in down the road. read more

The parking is difficult with the 7-11 and liquor store neighbors, but after your first meal you will overlook it. So far, we have had carnitas, barbacoa, birra, al pastor, and chorizo tacos; chips guac and salsa; pork papusas; and chicken tinge tostada. Sides of slaw, and rice and beans. Everything has been delicious and filling. Do not expect the heat to be turned down for the American palate, spice and heat make the food all the more memorable. Most dishes are mild hot until you use the sauces or bite into the grilled onions and jalepenos served with most dishes. Those who love a real hot dish should try the chicken tinge, flavorful and spicey. Don't miss Taco Tuesday where papusas and a select variety of tacos are only $1.50 each. We have yet to try Fajita Fridays, will update the review as soon as we do. read more

During my first visit there was hair in my food. I ordered the Birria tacos and the steak corn tortillas tacos. I called to inform the restaurant and was treated very nicely and I could tell that it was a genuine mistake. My food was remade and O received accommodations so that when I picked my food up I did not have to wait they were also very apologetic. This restaurant is a family oriented place with a comfortable environment for people of all ages. It is a very busy restaurant but the staff , owners and the food is more than worth the try. It is authentic and the comfort that the staff provides is beyond exceptional. Despite our small mishap I highly recommend this place ! read more

Don't make the same mistake as me and drag your feet on giving this place a shot! This place is a real find. Great food. Excellent value for money, and friendly service! We grabbed takeout and ordered a random selection of items. First was an order of the chips, guacamole, and salsa. Delicious! Chips tasted fresh. The guacamole was smooth and buttery, not overly seasoned, we fought over every last bite of it. The salsa is sooo good! Perfectly spicy and I literally dipped everything I ate into it! Next, we tried tacos. The chorizo wasn't bad. The shrimp was good, but a little bland. Both these tacos reminded me of the ones I've had in Cali. Corn tortillas, diced onion and cilantro, and radish/grilled onion. Thirdly, we got a birria taco. I've heard of these but had never had one, and omg have I been missing out!!! I don't really eat a lot of red meat, but I'm more than happy to make an exception for these! The meat is crazy tender. The grilled tortilla with melted cheese is like next level good, but then you dip that thing in the consomme and it will literally make you see God (okay maybe not literally). We were supposed to be sharing this meal, but I devoured that entire birria taco without regret, lol. And I'd do it again! They had pupusas on their breakfast menu, and even though we ordered in the afternoon they were happy to prepare 2 for us. I haven't had a pupusa in years, and these didn'tdisappoint! We tried the queso, which was yummy, and the bean/pork/cheese which was equally delicious! And I was so excited they provided the red sauce and slaw- it's the perfect bite!! Lastly, we ordered a torta. I'd never had one before, and again this has been a major oversight in my life. I believe we ordered the Cubano and I think it was $11 and it weighed as much as a baby, I kid you not. It was packed with meat. You simply cannot find value for money like that in this economy. Again, this sandwich was loaded with the most tender, juicy meats. And melty cheese. It was so good. The food was perfectly packaged. They didn't skimp on anything, we got tons of sauces, etc. This entire order of food only cost us $24. I tipped them $10 because I absolutely couldn't believe how cheap it was. It took us 2 days to finish it all! Will literally be telling everyone I know to go here, and I will absolutely be back soon! read more

Newly opened Mexican/Salvadoran place located next to the 7-11 on Davidsonville Road. It's more of a carry out than formal sit down restaurant. You order at counter but there's tables if you want to eat inside. I tried them for lunch recently and find that their prices are reasonable for tacos, pupusas, etc. Their taco meal comes with rice and tasty black beans. Included in my order was a grilled onion and jalapeño, very nice. I ordered the carne asado taco, Al pastor, and shrimp. The tacos are very small as they are street tacos and quite good. I would have preferred more sauce and pineapple for the Al pastor and the carne asado was a little dry but it usually is in these types of tacos. I would come again when a craving for tacos or pupusas hits. read more

Food was great value for little money. Got a full meal for me and my friend for under 25$. However, they are definitely short staffed. It's hard to wave down someone and they can forget about you sometimes. Good food, cheap. Cozy. Ideal family restaurant (but keep it mind most of the food has some spice to it) read more

Love the authentic Mexican food. Service is very good. I haven't been disappointed. You have to try the birria tacos.

Great food and service. My husband and I saw this place driving by and decided to stop by. We ordered Carne Asada and el pastor tacos and chilaquiles. Food was amazing and very authentic! Definitely recommend if you're in the mood for REAL Mexican food! read more

wow...i could not be more disappointed and wish i had eaten in the restaurant so i could send things back. as in, all of it. side of steak was horrible. tough and salty. first chip i bit into had zero crunch. stale as hell. guac had brown throughout. god i hate rating this place so low but goddamned people, this order could NOT have been worse for the money i wasted. first time and never again. you must seriously unload your worst food on delivery services. i am embarrassed for my delivery guy. read more

El Cabrito Mexican Grill - Crofton - side of steak...absolute beef jerky. god knows when this was cooked. - Mexican Near Me - Crofton, Maryland

My husband beat me to the punch to try this place. But once he told me they had pupusas I had to go!!! Unfortunately, they didn't have any when we went last night but that didn't stop me. I had a carne asada torta which was good. The meat was chopped making it easier to eat. I was given a side of nachos without any dipping sauces. But beware if you ask for salsa be ready to be on fire! The green sauce with avocado chuncks was hot but the red creamy one was hotter! I wasn't ready lol..my daughter had steak quesadilla with nachos, beans, rice, pico de gallo, and sour cream. My son a traditional Salvadoran breakfast. Overall the food was good...Can't wait to go back and try more dishes! read more

Came here fir dinner. The cueritos tacos were really good. There's not a lot of Mexican restaurants who offer it. I wasn't a fan of the red pozole soup. The pork did not taste fresh. I wouldn't order it again. The rice & beans were really good. I will definitely come back and try other dishes. I like that they have lots of tables to dine in. I don't know what the other reviewers were talking about when they said it's mostly take out. It's a casual Mexican eatery with enough seating to be comfortable and enjoy your tacos! read more

This place is authentic and the food is always fresh! There is usually seating and it's self seat. The service is great, the food can take a little to come out so if you're in a rush order/call ahead. But this is authentic, good food. On the cheaper side too. Pretty much all of the workers are Hispanic so there can be a language barrier but they have all be super nice. read more

They can never get an order right. We ordered take out from here multiple times and they gotten our order wrong time and time again. I don't understand how either because I place my order in Spanish and they still get it wrong. I always try to order stuff with no onions and they always add onions. I recently ordered a breakfast burrito with just eggs potatoes and beans. I got a burrito with eggs peppers onions and potato's. I guess they just don't know how to listen to peoples orders over the phone or they just don't care. read more

Expected so much more. Since this spot was recommended I made it over to Crofton as i was really looking for a good spot to get good Mexican food. We ordered take out so that went ok i guess. I ordered the Carne Asada plate and one chicken taco and the hubby ordered two shrimp tacos. Bill came to 27 bucks and was asked to tip (annoying for take out). Anyway, the shrimp tacos were ok according to hubby but the onions that are added are raw. Had we known we would have asked for sauteed. The Carne Asada plate was not a plate. If fact they just put the chicken taco in the plate with the Carne asada taco. No rice no beans. And all the onions were raw. So in essence we paid almost 30 bucks for 4 tacos. The best thing about the entire meal was the guacamole. Yeah wont be going back for that. read more

I've eaten here twice now and both times the food was delicious! In my opinion, it's the best Mexican food in the area!

Really enjoyed our first visit to this very authentic/very affordable place. It's very casual and when asking others (yes as indicated in another review there's a number of Hispanic folks patronizing this place) and they say it's GOOD, I asked). I saw the chefs making fresh tortilla dough at 7 pm. The order taker recommended the flautas and they were crispy, full of tasty tender chicken and covered with fresh avocado and lettuce. The Burrito Enchilado was awesome too. Ordered steak and chicken tacos. They don't seem to have ground beef tacos but the steak was tender and delicious. The green sauce with fresh cilantro added a lot of flavor. The orange sauce has some real kick. The coconut shrimp was good but it just doesn't rise to the same level as their home cooked chicken and beef. Will definitely be back. read more

total so so or less experience. Ordering was ok. food was ready when I arrived and they were nice. food not so great. i got the chicken mole, and a chorizo taco. There was more meat on the leg than the breast (very little meat on the breast, and it was fatty. The mole sauce was a red sauce without even a hint of chocolate, and the rice was mush. I don't eat the beans so I can't say anything about that. The chorizo was dry in the taco. I will go back but I think I will stick to the other types of tacos. read more

Small, new and a hidden gem. This little restaurant was squeaky clean; the waitress was really nice and helpful; several Hispanics were eating (sign of good, authentic food). The prices were excellent and portions huge! The food was tasty and hit the spot. I had fajitas, rice, black beans and salad. There was way too much sauce on the beef and it was very salty (to my taste). Reading the menu items was a big challenge - they were mostly written in Spanish and had little or no descriptions. I'm sure the waitress would have helped me, but she would have had to read the whole menu for me! I'm looking forward to visiting again soon. It was truly a great experience (in spite of the minor issues noted above). Give it a try!! read more

Checked out this newly opened Mexican/Salvadoran place. Prices are very reasonable and food was very good. I had 3 street tacos (Chorizo, Chicken & Barbacoa). Chorizo was the best of the bunch! They have a LOT of food options - you may want to peruse the menu before arriving (the font on the menu is pretty small - so descriptions can be tricky to read). There are places to sit/dine inside but is not a very big place. You can either order at the counter or have table service. They did not appear to have a liquor license so we were missing a margarita/beer to go with our meal. We both liked the green sauce that came with our meal. The staff were very pleasant. read more
