I ordered a frozen margarita, unfortunately there was way too much sour mix for my tastes and I couldn't drink it. We ordered the chicken quesadilla, kids mozzarella sticks with fries, and carnitas tacos. The quesadilla was humongous with a generous helping of chicken. The mozzarella sticks and fries were perfectly crisp and tasty. The carnitas were soaked in a tomatillo sauce and were divine complimented by the fresh avocado. The tacos were served with refried beans and rice, not were underwhelming. The rice was dry and the beans were very under seasoned. The restaurant itself is very clean with plenty of seating. We came between the lunch and dinner rush so it wasn't very busy. Overall, I'd recommend Ernesto's.

I also really enjoyed the strawberry and mango margaritas, which paired perfectly with the nacho chips. While our server was very sweet during the initial order, the service was unfortunately nonexistent after that with almost no check-ins. The ambiance is very loud--almost like a club--and the music was blasting so much that I had to step outside a few times for a break. That said, the flavors were on point, so I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu.

Our server was friendly. I ordered a mimosa to start with since it was during brunch hours. My bf and I decided to share enchiladas and we were able to choose different ones; we had the carne which was ground beef with a delicious enchilada sauce, the pollo tinga with a roasted tomato salsa sauce, and the pork verde with a green salsa. All of them tasted great! It came with a choice of refried beans or black beans (we had refried which were good) and rice (pretty tasty!). The first round of chips and salsa are on the house, but it's a pretty small serving. Very good though. We did ask for a second round ($3 I believe) but never got them, but we were full from the meal so it was okay. Overall, we enjoyed this spot and would definitely return!

The Only Review You Need To Read…read more We decided to check out this restaurant, as my funny little honey is actually from Colima, Mexico and if anybody knows Mexican food, it would be her. Also my Aunt Johnnie (RIP) who relocated from El Paso, TX to Ellicott City years ago, this was her favorite restaurant. First off, I'd like to say that the word "authentic" is thrown around a bit too liberally when it comes to Mexican restaurants around here. The Hispanic population here in Maryland is dominated with people from Central America, of which Mexico is not. The restaurant itself is rather quaint, with plenty of room for either couples or a large party. The staff were very friendly and attentive; definitely seems like a family-owned business. Now, let's talk about the food. In a nutshell, we were not particularly impressed. The chicken tortilla soup was basically a watery bean soup with little flavor and two large tortilla chips placed in it (no tortilla strips?). I ordered my "go to" dish which is chicken enchiladas. Meh; the enchiladas were just fine, the rice was brownish in color (we're used to orange Spanish rice), the black beans didn't have a lot of flavor and refried beans are refried beans - hard to mess that up. My girlfriend got chile relleno and she was taken aback a bit that it had shredded chicken and onion in it (usually it just has cheese). She also pointed out that this was a Mexican restaurant, but there were no albondigas, no molè, no sopes, no guacamole nor sour cream anywhere in sight. And I pointed out no pictures of Vicente Fernández on the walls either. But what was good were the chips and salsa we had to munch on while waiting for our entrees - that I can recommend; good salsa. Three stars is the best I can do. Personally, we tried it, and we didn't find the experience that great where we need to go back again. And I don't want to give the impression that I'm trashing the place - it's a nice sit-down restaurant and if you're looking for some South Of The Border fare, then it's fine. But it's actually more Tex-Mex than "authentic Mexican."

This is my first review, and I must say this restaurant exceeded my expectations. I decided to sit…read moreat the bar, where I was greeted by a very nice young lady with locs. I don't normally drink when I go out but I was feeling a bit wild that night. She recommended a drink called "la suegra", I'm not to sure how to describe it but it was very nice. It scratched the back of my throat in a pleasant way, I had to order a second one. I then ordered food, which I was a little intimidated by the scale of their menu. The tacos asada were delicious, and the paired salsa was amazing. I ordered a red salsa against my better judgment and found to spicy, but the flavor was still spot on. Very impressed with the food and atmosphere, not used to such welcoming staff in Maryland. I just want to draw attention back to the wonderful bar staff, the young lady was very on it. Even in the rush she was very attentive and kept up her friendly attitude. I never got a chance to speak to the gentleman working with her but he was just as busy as she was. The customers he was assisting looked as happy as me. Great job soluna, you guys really live up to the name "tequila bar". Will definitely be back very soon and I suggest everyone in the area to come as well!!!
