It's there and cooked without oil immersion or the awful trap of terrible portioning. Here, the nutrients shine. And that is healthy. Price: Decent. Very Decent. Everything I bought there was roughly over 45 dollars (before the tipping) and keep in mind, the condiments and sauces were complimentary. For this quality and quantity? I definitely got my money's worth. Experience: Wonderful server. Even in a busy dinner cycle, she came over and literally started to hand me a menu almost right as I sat down. Even gave me a great recommendation for the Enchilada platter and brought the holster of extras over to the table as well. The food was delivered quickly, and the small details (utensils, cleanliness, chair organization etc.) were great. Taste: Honestly this place is a standout for seasoning. It's flavorful, unique, and skewed towards spices over oil. Tasteful impact, without the baggage. A gem. Even among so many other restaurants serving this cuisine in the area I've tried, this is a standout. I'll come eat here again. You should too. It's right next to Patterson park with so many parking spaces nearby. I'm gonna run here. Soon.

They were fresh, flavorful, and hit the spot. The food comes out fast and the prices are very reasonable, which makes it an easy go-to for a casual meal. Customer service has been consistently great on every visit, which really adds to the neighborhood feel. My only downside is the salsas. They are a bit watery and not really my thing. Still, between the solid tacos, quick prep, and friendly service, this place is definitely worth checking out if you're nearby.

We stopped here on a TUESDAY afternoon…read more It wasnt fancy but a chill open space with plenty of seating in multiple areas. It was not busy and open seating anywhere. We ordered quac and chips first. Then tacos (pork and chicken). The pork was $3 each, as it was the day special taco. The chicken was $5 each. Note any checks totalling $40 will have an automatic gratuity added. I didnt get a lot of pictures as we were hungry and didnt think to snap any photos. I will definitely visit again.

Honestly their tacos are so so good but they are pricey! I got three tacos to go for dinner, and…read morethe staff was really friendly. I got the shrimp, nopales and Al pastor. The tacos came with two green sauce (a creamy mild sauce) and two red (hot sauce). They were $5 per ish per taco which is a lot for street tacos. I was also surprised to see they didn't double wrap the tacos in tortillas (normally for corn tacos you get two tortillas). They fell apart so quickly but the flavor was so good I forgot to add sauce for the first shrimp taco. I loved the tacos came with radishes. The Al pastor isn't really Al pastor - they do cook the meat on the rotisserie but the Al pastor usually comes with pineapple and the meat is slivers, this was thick but good. The entrance to BMore isn't where the awning is it's the other door which is really confusing. That's the only thing I would caveat. The interior of the restaurant is bigger than you think and the table setting seems more formal than the street tacos vibe

Inside of Lexington market, there is easily 20 food vendors in there and we chose Charro Negro because the food smelled SO good. Pictures don't lie; everything was absolutely amazing, seasoned well, FRESH and the best part? Fairly priced! The homemade salsas were outstanding and the guac was perfect (which is rare but I'm also biased due to my Latin background). I ordered the Al pastor tacos and my husband ordered the quesabirria and both were incredible. Everything was ready under 10 minutes! We will definitely be back next time we're in Baltimore :)

The Carne Asada was alright 5/10 - beef was a bit overcooked and on the dry side. Seasoning could've used more punch, maybe a creamy mayo sauce to balance it out. Plenty of lime helped though. The El Pastor was better 6/10 - meat was more tender with a nice touch of sweetness from the pineapple, and the lime brought it all together. Tortillas were soft, warm, and moist but is fairly generic. I'm from Texas, so maybe I'm a little picky, but for Baltimore tacos, I'd give this spot a 6/10. The real winner was the pineapple Agua Fresca - not too sweet, slightly foamy, and super refreshing in the heat.

I went into the restaurant instead of ordering online so that I could ask specific questions. One of my favorite Mexican breakfast entrees, chilaquilas was on the menu and the other restaurants I looked at didn't have it so I was definitely going to order with La Cabana. I went in to my order and it already came with either beef like it should, so I chose chicken with the verde sauce, the icky way to order it lol The only thing I wasn't a fan of were the huge white onions on top where red sound be. The avocado helped cool it down from the spice. My egg was fried correctly and the verde sauce was delectable. I would come back to reorder although the huge onions were an eye sore. They also have an outdoor seating area that looks prefect for chilling and hanging out

They mainly speak Spanish here but the waitress knows English and they are able to accommodate and still communicate well with non Spanish speakers--according to my non Latino friends who came here after I recommended it to them.

Hands down best nachos I've ever had. Splurge on the Nachos Especiales for sure! Horchata was also superlative. Green salsa was smokey with a nice delayed heat.

Parking is a bit tricky, street parking is possible but best bet is probably parking in the lot across Eastern.

After you try a local, independently owned taco shop, you will never go back to Taco Bell again…read more.. okay, maybe if you're highAF and it's after midnight, but I frown on your decision making. Not because of the smoking, but because Taco Bell is trash. You're better than that. Tacos Tolteca is amazing. We've been trying some other local places recently, but made our triumphant return last night, on our way to do some laundry. I got the chicken chimichanga - fried. It comes covered in cheese sauce, with a glorious side of refried beans and some rice. Do yourself the favor and get a container of their freshly made pico de gallo, too. My boyfriend got the Gordo Burrito (Large burrito stuffed with grilled chicken, chorizo, refried beans, Spanish rice and pico de gallo. Covered with queso dip). And some nachos (Nacho chips topped with your choice of meat, queso dip, lettuce, sour cream, and pico de gallo. + .99 for Guacamole) to share - but we were too full up to eat them, so we brought them home. Those are gonna be great with a cocktail! Would definitely recommend!!

This last time, I tried their birria for the first time, which is my go to the last couple of years when eating Mexican, and was genuinely shocked by how bad it was. The meat, while tender, was flavorless, as was the broth and the cheese used for the quesabirria was American. I took two more tentative bites after the first one because I thought, there is no way they're using American cheese. No, they definitely are. I ended up calling because I was disappointed that I didn't have anything to eat for lunch (it was that bad, which is remarkable when you're talking about tacos), and the staff confirmed, with no irony, that they use white American and further, that they use it on all their dishes. Crazy. I'd also ordered lunch for the staff of a local business who had been really kind to me recently, so I can only hope their food wasn't anything like mine. I probably won't try them again, but hoping their sister restaurant, La Tolteca hasn't similarly declined.
