This Restaurant belongs to the category of Mexican restaurant.
I have been coming here since 1999, when they opened their doors. It is selfevent why I keep coming back. The food is outstanding and the staff. I have met the owners and they are very devoted with quest and their employees. When it comes to pricing, they are priced right and this includes alcohol drinks too. I do not have anything bad to say about them and I go there two time a week on average (yes I don't have time to cook). But I will say this, "if it is your birthday" make sure you informed them, take out your cameras. I hope you enjoy this restaurant the way I have over the years.
Always delicious with very attentive service. Best margaritas in Baltimore.
Bleh. The food was not good. It wasn't seasoned, cooked well, or have anything on it. I ordered steak tacos and it was literally steak in a tortilla and the steak was overcooked and not flavorful at all. I would rather hit up On the Border for "authentic" Mexican food.
I love coming here to eat. It's very authentic. You get chips and salsa as soon as you sit down. The staff is very nice. The frozen drinks are sooooo good. I have tried many different things from the menu and i have never been disappointed. The food is amazing!!!
Best Mexican food I've ever had. My personal favorites are the queso and their tacos.
Excellent. The tamales a must have
We hadn't been in years and didn't miss anything. While it was good there are better.
Good food at reasonable prices and great service.
1st time eating there. Delicious delicious delicious more than enough
Good food but it's more TexMex than Mexican. Wish the salsa had more flavor, it's mostly tomato sauce with very little of anything else. Every food on the menu is pretty much covered in cheese but wish they add a hint more garlic and cumin to the mix to give it more of a Mexican taste. The best bang for the buck is the pitcher of margarita for $22.95 makes about 5 drinks and it is NOT watered down, makes you real tipsy for two people. Even though the food is a little bland to be considered Mexican, the margarita makes up for it.
Quick service always good food.
I love El Salto's it's my favorite Mexican Restaurant.
El Salto is my go to Mexican spot. They are always friendly, they have great prices and the food is always amazing. If you're looking for a quick bite or a place to take the family, this is it! Try the California Burrito! I would go back again!
Love this PLACE! Lived here for 20+ years and never went in. Now we dine regularly. Food is delicious, huge portions, attentive staff and super fast service! Muy bien!
Food was bland. Service was good. Servers were very nice.
Very good and tasty mexican food not found of the salsa excellent service friendly staff
I have been here three times and really enjoyed the food. This is definitely an authentic tex-mex restaurant. The prices are fair and portions are large. I would highly recommend.
This has been a family favorite of ours for over a decade. In the past couple years this place has gotten SO MUCH BUSIER- but that only confirms how great this restaurant is. Very traditional Mexican food and very reasonable prices! I highly recommend the mango margaritas... and they are SO BIG that it’s like drinking out of a soup bowl! There’s usually a wait for a table, unless you go on a day or a time when there’s not the usual rush. But even when we’ve had to wait, it hasn’t ever been longer than 10 minutes.
Terrible only thing authentic about this restaurant is the music. Staff was nice but the food was terrible and drinks just as bad.
Came home after a long day. Didn't want to cook. Ordered simple tacos. They sucked, next time I will go to taco bell. Who ever heard of a Mexican that can't make a taco. No more
Lunchtime service was friendly and fast. Decor is interesting. Sadly, the food was average. On only two small tortillas with a fajitas order. Refried beans were flat. Tomato was not even chopped up. This location used to have better quality food.
My girlfriend and I stopped in after visitng a local produce farm which is close to El Salto. I'm glad we did. First off, you're greeted and warmly welcomed by the staff at the door. The interior is very clean and nicely decorated. Service was prompt and the food arrived HOT and sizzling to the table. The complimentary tortilla chips were warm and the salsa was delicious!! Both of us enjoyed the food and the portions were nice sized and the bill was under $30.00 total for us both. It's an extensive menu with plenty of food and drink options. We definitely will be going back!!!
There food is great.
Great food. Cozy environment. The salsa is a bit more sweet than spicy though.
Food is tasty and service has been good. Prices are more than reasonable.
Plentiful, tasty Mexican cuisine. Always quick and friendly service. A local gem!
Not the best Mexican you can get in Baltimore, but tasty none the less. Very friendly wait staff with prompt service. If you are planning to go for Friday or Saturday for dinner, be prepared to wait for a table as this place can get busy.
Great food.Reasonably priced.Fast service.
Best Mexican food I've had in Maryland....and I'm Mexican!!
An oldie but goody. Still one of my favorite spots to hit up when in the area. You can get a lot of food for fairly cheap here. I like their Texas margarita which is like this giant cauldron of margarita and a shot of tequila on the side. My favorite thing of theirs is their rice and beans - its like a comfort food for me. While it's not mindblowing or anything, it is still good in a pinch and good quality food.
Have never had a bad experience here. They can accommodate a larger party too.
Oh the queso!!!!! Love the queso. Also a big fan of quesadilla rellena!
Good authentic Mexican food great prices great service good atmosphere you love this place and you will return
Everything there is delicious!!!!! I highly recommend this spot. Service is top notch.
Went here with my family and you really get what you pay for. The food was great and service was quick even during lunch!
We have come here so many times. I love the tacos de cameron, especial de casa and the nachos supremos. The churros are amazing. Their margaritas are delicious too and you can get all that for a reasonable price. This place is legit.
The best American Mexican restaurant in Md. Fabulous food at a great price. You never leave there hungry.
El Salto is a favorite and highly recommended for quality, generous portion size, and cheap pitchers.
Great service and big portions. Can be crowded on weekends.
Quality Mexican food for a very affordable price.
I enthusiastically love this place. I’ve been here a couple times and it’s always wonderful. Sometimes the service is a little slow, but the food is delicious and the restaurant itself is attractive and clean. It’s an amazing Mexican-American eatery, with affordable prices. It’s not super-authentic Mexican good, but most places in America aren’t. El Salto offers a large variety of the typical Americanized Mexican food, and they do it well. Everything I’ve had here, from burritos to salads to nachos and beyond, has been exactly what I wanted. I’m writing this review, I’m craving some of this food and i wish they had a delivery service. It’s great. If you’re looking for Mexican, i think you’ll be very pleased with El Salto.
Great prices for the portions you receive nice friendly wait staff.
The food is pretty good here. My co-workers and I stop in whenever we get the chance. If you like to eat a lot the California Burrito is pretty darn good and they give you chips and salsa when you are seated.
Excellent Service Great Authentic Food
Even on a busy Saturday, service was prompt, food arrived quickly, and the quantity and quality were excellent. I read a lot of reviews before visiting for the first time today, and I heartily agree with all the favorable comments. I will be back, probably many times.
Great food, prices and people.
Good prices, big portions, authentic food
Best sit-down Mexican restaurant in the area. Reminds me of La Tonalteca chain over in DE. Excellent food, fast service, even when relatively busy, and kind staff. Like most Mexican places, excellent vegetarian options!
Salsa was good. Chips ok. Fajitas were bland and not good. They use tomatoes and onions apparently instead of red/green peppers and onions lol. Won't be back.
It's close to home. Good ambiance and somewhat quick for being a restaurant.
Authentic Mexican food. Rich menu, lots of choices, friendly staff.
Always a great time.Delicious, Fresh, quality food.Prices are reasonable .Drinks are awesome (try the peach margarita)Wonderful staff! Clean! So much fun!!!
Delicious! We love this place. Never a bad meal or drink.
Love their food, staff is so friendly!
Always visit when in the area. Great food.
Decent price, friendly staff, good sized portions.
Excellent restaurant. Maria was is an awesome waitress.
Always a great place to visit. Homemade Sangria, cold refreshing Margaritas, a festive atmosphere and some decent Mexican food. Staff is always friendly and welcoming. A place to pick up your spirits any day of the week
Drinks are excellent, service excellent as well. Food came out quick. Good prices.
If you want a mix of quality Mexican food, good service and decent price, look no further. El Salto is my fiance's favorite Mexican restaurant. It is now mine. It is always at the top of the list when we are deciding where to eat for dinner. They have two different types of salsa. The chips are warm and salty. I had the mole chicken which was bursting with flavor. I can't wait to go back.
Fantastic place. My wife and I used to ear here constantly. Since we moved, it s a little more far between, but well.worth the trip down. Affordable, fast and extremely delicious.
Felt a little cramped, and our server wasn't super attentive, but I'd gladly deal with much worse for their food. DELICIOUS. DELICIOUS. DELICIOUS. Will definitely be back, and I can't recommend it enough.
Food was great and service was good. Fajita texacano was great.
Good food at good prices and very professional staff
Great Tex Mex food, and good service despite how busy it was. Nice decor, will definitely be coming back.
Love love love love El Saltos! Neighborhood staple that is just fantastic. Their queso and margaritas are great. The staff is always so friendly and nice. It does get very busy around dinner time and they don't take reservations, but definitely worth the wait. Try their huge California Burrito!
i honestly cant say much about el salto but i love the quesadillas there and the good quality serves
Definitely a very busy place. As expected big portions and delicious Mexican food. We will be returning for sure
Great food. Great prices. Friendly service. Everything you can want in a Mexican restaurant.
Pretty good, but very bland for Mexican
Great service & very tasty food!
Good atmosphere and service but very mediocre food. The runniest most bland salsa I've ever had and the refried beans were pureed like baby food. Plenty of better choices around.
Always good food here. Authentic
Best chicken quesadillas I've have in my entire life. Cant wait to always go back, highly recommended resturant
Authentic Mexican, reasonable prices and huge serving. Yummy!
Cheap, plentiful, reminds me of back in Texas
I'd give it a 5 but only because when we do take out they always put the Heavy food on top of the light
Waiter a bit distracted. But food was decent and fairly priced. Large portions. Do yourself a favor, skip the sangria and have a margarita. Also do chicken tacos instead of beef. Plenty of chips and salsa. And we didn't get grief when asking for more. I didn't judge for myself, but was told by others in my party, that the bathrooms were only fair. All in all ok but nothing great.
Dropped by with some friends on Halloween. The service was great and the food excellent. Never had to ask for a refill. We topped it off with fried ice cream.
Best authentic Mexican restaurant in town, highly recommended...!
My favorite place for Tacos and Margaritas! Great staff great and service that you don't find everywhere.
Inexpensive, quick, and fantastic food
Waited fifteen minutes without a greeting, another fifteen with no drinks or return from our waitress. Approached the host asking to see our waitress, waited another five minutes and left. Including wait time for table we were there for an hour and never received even a glass of water. No manager, no ownership present on a Friday night - they should be ashamed. Sad - the food is good.
The food portions are perfect sizes! If you get the fried ice cream, ask for NO sprinkles! They put WAY too many on there!
Nice homey Mexican restaurant. Very popular with the neighborhood. (Salsa could be spicier to suit my taste.)
All the dishes on the combo menu seem to be the same no matter what you order. We really like this place but the dishes could be presented better.
We had a great time, excellent food, drinks and service. Extensive menu. Highly recommended.
Great Food and service
The food was kind of ok. I was hungry and though it lack flavor, it wasn't nasty. The service lacked much to be desired. I was the only one in the restaurant and that should've clued me in that I should have moved on. However, my car was being fixed and my go-to spot was closed. Next time, I'll just get a snack from the convenience store. So, again, I'm the only one in the restaurant but the waitress seems to be rushing me. I'm asking her for explanations of what makes one item different from the next because they have similar ingredients. I'd come in a few minutes too late for the small portion lunches.
The food was great, traditional Mexican and very reasonable prices! I had a Patron Margarita and it was excellent! Highly recommended!!
Great food, great service, and the food usually comes out really fast. Great place for lunch, especially if you don't have a lot of time.
Delicious food, kind staff
A party of four. Got the menu immediately. Then we got to wait five and ten minutes to order drinks. Almost left. Ordered food with drinks. My wife was not pleased. The food was not what it could have been. I got the cheese steak. The meat was thick and gummy. Went at three pm. It was fourth time there. I will not be raving about el salto any time soon. Had to ask three times for the menu.
Awesome combos. Real food. Free chips and salsa.
Really sad unauthentic Mexican food(unseasoned, how is that possible ?)+ Unhappy disinterested waitress = no repeat business from this customer.
This food is AWEFUL! YUK!!! And I love Mexican food....
The enchiladas and tacos were fantastic.
Real Mexican food and great,service
Great food and service.
The food is fantastic, the atmosphere is charming and the price is affordable
Very tasty, rather inexpensive. Quick, friendly service.
Another great local place - the food here is as good as what I got growing up in Arizona.
1st time at this location. Very, very good!!!
This is one of my girlfriend's favorite places and for good reason. I got a number 19 (1 taco, 1 quesadilla and one burrito) and it was delicious. My girlfriend got a #29 which was same as mine except replace the quesadilla with an enchilada. Food was great, staff was great, environment was great. We were very please like always.
They were wonderful at this restaurant . . My kids and I wanted to share time at a restaurant but we had our dog and It was a 100 degree day we could leave him in the car so we ask if our dog could come in and sit with us. This place actually let me bring him in. Food was large portions and very good.
Consistent food quality, service, and overall experience. El Salto is, and has been for years, a favorite of mine for family outings as everyone enjoys their food/drinks and the bill is never outrageous. Highly recommended.
The food and service we're excellent. This was our first time but we will be going back.
This is the second El Salto we've been to and they've both been great. Both times we went on a Friday night so there was a bit of a wait, but it was worth it. I got the Burrito California and it was the length of the platter. This is our "go-to" for Mexican in the Baltimore area.
Great food Service is quick and family friendly.
Great food good atmosphere
Good food & drinks. Fast service. Solid all around.
The best Mexican food ever there salsa is to die for
A favorite place of mine to eat and practice my Spanish. Service is always good. The food is consistently tasty, not too salty, very generous portions. It's a family friendly place with plenty of parking.
El Salto is fantastic!!!!! It's casual dining at it's best. The service is fast and accurate. Prices are very reasonable and the food is always served hot but not spicy. You can order spicy dishes or spice them to your taste.
The food was excellent. My family all had a wonderful meal. My wife especially loved the Taco Salad. We all shared a Fried Icecream, which disappeared pretty quickly.
Love this Mexican place. Service is good, staff is attentive, friendly, polite, & accomodating. The Restrooms get ZERO STARS. Only two stalls in the ladies room. Has the sewer smell in the hall BEFORE you even open the door to the restroom!. NO paper toilet covers are EVER in the holders! CKECK THAT THERE IS tissue even before you close the door, because they are usually VERY low on tissue inside the stalls!!! they REALLY need to consider knocking out a wall it extend the restrooms or remodeling them to create more space or an extra stall. TOO many tables to ONLY have two stalls. Not sure how the men's room is, but its probably worse!!
Great food at great prices
Very nice chile relleno, taco was a little soggy, but overall a good meal for the price.
Great tasting food great prices staff is very nice
Great for a cheaper bite of lunch. Busy during lunchtime so be prepared to wait a little for your food to come out, but it's worth it! I didn't see much info on alternate diets such as gluten free etc.
Good Service Large portions
Great service from our waiter! Our food was delicious - our family ordered enchiladas, tamal, California burrito, el Salto nachos and steak quesadillas which only had a little shredded cheese inside and it was not melted.
Good service, obviously popular. Food average. "Michelaga" (so?) drink, beer-V8, lime juice, salted rim, was very weak and watery; spoiled dinner.
Great food, nice waitress and fast serving
I had the Burrito DELUXE and it was very good. Mango Margarita was very good.
This is a pretty nice and neat place. My family has done Father's Day and Mother's Day here several times. Food is okay, but it is often times understaffed and difficult to get served when needed.
Went for lunch. Nice embience. Fresh food. Salsa w/ free chips was just sauce, not salsa. Refried beans were fine, if you like them without any seasoning at all. Otherwise chicken fajitas were good. Agree that staff was very nice.
My entire family loves this place!
