This place is so cute and the food is 10/10 so delicious, fresh and authentic. Had lobster empanadas, steak quesadilla and tacos al pastor. Outdoor seating and drinks!
These are the best Tacos I have ever eaten I usually don't leave reviews but this place deserves it. The AL Pastor is perfect the tortilla is fresh you can watch them make tortillas while your tacos are cooking! Anyone stating they were "ok" or "needed more flavor" is just wrong and probably eats and Don Pablo's. Just go trust me.
Ate 2 shrimp and 2 al Pastor tacos. Warm tortillas. Everything was absolutely delicious. Enjoyed the opportunity to converse with the owner/operator. Make sure you taste the house-made green sauce.
These were solid tacos, but not the best I've had. They were very wet, but the shrimp was seasoned very well.
The server was engaging, the food was cook fresh and and pretty darn filling. Guac was okay, I would have liked it to have slightly more flavor. I would return for a quick bite if nearby.
First time at Chef Valentino’s restaurant. The Tacos al Pastor and the Chorizo tacos were delicious , the sauces added the perfect touch of flavor and spice but not overwhelming heat.The flan was delightful , you can clearly feel the homemade taste. Mexican beer makes it easier to enjoy the authenticity of the latino food. The friendly atmosphere, music, decor and the welcoming smiles of Chef Val and his staff make of this restaurant a wonderful cozy little place to enjoy a great meal. We will be back for the empanadas and ceviche!!!
This is the best taco spot in Baltimore if You are really looking for authentic, delicious, good quality and fresh food. It brought me back to Mexico! The staff Was super friendly and they all work together to make Your experience there the best. The chef is incredibly talented and it is always bringing new ideas and things to the table, so be prepared to have a very positive experience with very good food. Small and practical menu that lets you know everything is prepared from scratch daily. Tortillas are super good and al pastor is the king of the place. They are soon going to be opening outside sitting and it is on a very nice area and clean location. I also loved that the salsas weren't overwhelmingly spicy and everything was seasoned perfect. Definitely recommend and we will be coming back to try everything on the menu!
Great tacos and great people!! Love the open kitchen concept— the place is super clean and employees/owner are super friendly and personable.A must-try in Baltimore!
I tired the al pastor and nopaltios tacos. I didn’t think they were all that flavorful. The meat was a little dry for al pastor. Not awful but not exciting. Maybe I would try the al pastor again for a $5 taco Tuesday to see if it was an off night, but not worth the $10 in my opinion.
This is one of those places that couldn't make anything better. The food and staff are perfect. There's great attention to detail and they stick to what they know, which is a large variety of homemade tacos/sopes/ceviches/quesadillas. The land and sea protein options are all cooked to order with lobster empanada and fresh Al pastor¡! tacos carved by the chef himself stealing the show. I eat tacos in every city with Mexican influence that I step in and your next step should be here.
