Mexican Restaurant

I love Mexican food and so I wanted to recommend a particular restaurant that I believe serves the most Authentic Mexican Cuisine in the area.


I took the family out the other night and we dined at a place called," El AZTECA at 12210 Clarksville Pike, Clarksville MD 21029."

The food was Awesome!!!:eek:

It was recommended to me by a Mexican couple who I've known for a while now and boy were they right.

I ordered the Enchilada de Mole, tender chicken simmered in their famous Mole sauce, which is Mexico's signature plate. Mole is a spicy chocolate sauce that is famous in good ole Mexico. OMG it was soo good.

My daughter ordered the Fajitas Fiesta Combintion with Chicken, Steak and Shrimp. It was absolutely delicious! I mean this is Gourmet Mexican food and far from Tex Mex food.

The wife had el Chile Verde, which is a Tender Pork in a spicy green tomato sauce with a touch of sour cream and fresh Cilantro and of course all the plates came with refried beans and rice.

MMMMMM mmm good.:happy0100:

I highly recommend it:happy0144:

Iv actually had a hard time finding a place with good authentic Mexican food around here. I'll have to keep this place in mind. Around here the best if found is Tampico Bar and Grill it's usually decent to bangin.

Now I'm in the mood for some salsa con queso and chips! And enchiladas or fajitas mmm nom nom nom

I think the further from the border the harder it is to find good Mexican joints. The southwest and west coast has it down fo sho

Holy cow someone knows about In N' Out on this side of the country!?!?!? The best burger joint hands down! I'm back to SoCal for a week in July and that is the first place I'm hitting up. There's no jack in the box out here either... or sonic.....

I love to eat and eat a lot. I went here *www.fogodechao.com@ the harbor by espnzone, for my birthday. let me tell you as long as you have the green side of a card up they keep bringing food to your table straight from the grills. you need a break just flip it to red. I thoroughly enjoyed the service and food. its about 150 for two but well worth it. I stopped counting after the third ribeye........mmmm mmmm! some kind of good.

Umm, now I'm hankering for some good Mexican food! Sister and her family are coming up from Richmond this weekend and I've been charged with making those "chimmy thingies" My mom won't make them from my brother-in-law - he loves fried flour tortilla's.

When she was pregnant with me, my parents had dinner at a Mexican couple's house. Mom came home with the recipie for "taco sauce" I've loved the stuff since before I was born... lol
