Review El Salto Inc. - Baltimore

Great food and great service Prices aren't that bad. Make sure you come hungry because the portions are huge! I recommend the chimichanga or the "burrito California"!

My husband and I were in Glen Burnie for an event and decided to try El Salto. It was a wonderful decision. The staff were all happy and upbeat. It felt so friendly, like you were visiting home. The food was incredible, portions were large and the service was fast. I really only review places that are exceptionally good or bad. This was so good that I had to let other people know that it's worth a visit.

Locals have been telling me to go since I've moved here. I'll be honest, it was pretty good. Full disclosure: I used to live in Oklahoma and was spoiled with authentic and amazing Mexican and TexMex, so my bar is somewhat high. I went during off peak hours, around 3pm. As a result, I was literally the only table there until I was about to leave. The service was great, and the building was clean. As for what you're really interested in, the food, it was good.. but I guess the things people had told me set my expectations much too high. I got the "stuffed jalapenos" which I was expecting would be like fresh stuffed jalapenos but were actually just frozen and fried jalapeno poppers. The complimentary chips and salsa was good - chips were fresh and crunchy and the salsa tasted very fresh. I also got the combination fajitas - chicken and steak. It came out on a sizzling platter and the presentation was good. It came with three tortillas, and a side of guac, sour cream, lettuce, and refried beans. No pico, which was unexpected. The sides were fresh and tasty. The meat and veggies were good as well, though a little overcooked. And finally, I got a jalapeno margarita. I'm not going to lie.. it was the star of the show and couldn't have really been any better. It was amazing and included fresh sliced jalapenos. I don't mean for this all to sound so negative, it was really good all around. As I mentioned before, I came in with the wrong expectations. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone if you're looking for fresh, delicious, tex mex that hits the spot. Just keep in mind this is more chain type food rather than authentic.

had a great experience, the staff was more than accommodating to pur largish party and the waitress was extra attentive and helpful. the food was made super fast and quite tasty. priced fair and very clean. would definitely go again. thanks El Salto for making our celebration so festive and fun.

If you walk here hungry somethings wrong. Eat here all the time. Today was first time my daughter came with me she loves it.

I know the outside doesn’t look to appealing. But trust me, the food is great. Standard Mexican restaurant, with great service. I always stop to eat here when I’m in town.

Very delicious and the service was excellent! Only thing I didn’t care for was the jalapeño poppers because it was filled with nacho cheese instead of cream cheese. Delicious salsa

We like el Salto. They have consistently good food and we frequent them a lot. I find them over priced in a lot of ways but there are few exceptional Mexican restaurants in town.

The food here is excellent, I got the carne asada this time but have had their burritos and street tacos previously. The service is good. The atmosphere is family friendly but nice enough for a casual date. Prices are very reasonable and the margarita was the size of my head.

The food here is always good, we have been coming for over 20 years. This is singularly my family's favorite restaurant. I would go as far as to say we are regulars. We have done many birthdays and special events here. The last birthday we did here was my sons and it was actually a few months ago. Tonight when we came in one of the waitresses came up to my son and ask him if he forgot something when he was here for his birthday party. She pulled out a birthday card that he had left at the restaurant with money in it. The fact that it still had the money in it and they remembered him. Was incredibly heartwarming. I cannot say enough good things about this place the food is amazing and so are the people!

While passing by Glen Burnie today we decided to stop at this restaurant, it was very easy to locate it. El Salto has it's own parking lot which makes it more convenient for customers. We were seated directly and we got a high chair so quickly. Our server was very friendly, welcoming and spent enough time to chat and take our order. We ordered Nachos ElSalto and Corne Azada and both were really good. Below is my detailed rating for this place in Stars: Location & Parking: 5 stars Atmosphere & Decoration: 5 stars Service: 5 stars Food: 4 stars ( as it could be better) Price: 5 stars ( could be little cheaper)

Spotlessly clean restaurant, quick service, and amazing food! Good kids menu. Highly recommend - just go! (Hint: Get the Birria tacos).

Amazing food and amazing service the waitress was very friendly we took forever to make our order waiting on others and indecisive lol she never once rushed us she was awesome.

The food was delicious. So glad i finally visited this place. I always ride by it since it’s in the same location as my grandkids daycare. Will be going back.

the food was great. a friend recommended that i try one of the dishes here. it was excellent. the prices were very fair. it beats going to taco bell. the atmosphere was also very nice. very clean!

Great quality, great service. Love this place, and they make me feel like Norm rolling into Cheers. For some it might be a small thing, but one of my first favorites about this place is the fact that they serve genuine queso Blanco! Cover a couple chicken burritos in that and I'm in heaven! Give them a try, and don't be scared off by a full parking lot! Enjoy!!

I've been going here since 1996. I love this place! It has gone through some changes inside and out but the food is still amazing!

Lo siento pero no me gusto no tiene nada que ber con el sazón mexicano

Never disappointed! Great food, great service, great prices!!

EXELENTE COMIDA ..UN PEDACITO DE MEXICO EN BALTIMORE MD,.

There weren't many reviews but most were positve, was looking for a Mexican place that would have my favorite dessert "Soppapila" did I spell that correct? Anyway, did a search on all the Mexican place & decided to give this a go, it was south of the city in "Brooklyn" didn't seem too good an area. THe place seemed like it was in an old "food chain" type building. Atmosphere & service was good, food was average but the "presentation" was below average...

By far the best, most authentic Mexican restaurant I've ever been to! I had the Tacos ElSalto with Chorizo and chicken. The Chorizo is absolutely awesome. Highly recommend.

Good Eats. Friends been recommending El Salto and a finally went.<br/>Really good Mexican ...<br/>Prices are right and the service good.<br/>We go there at least once a month, sometimes more.<br/>Always busy, but we always get seated right away.<br/>Enjoy!!!!

I go at least twice a week. Great service, amazing food. I'm just not a fan of their salsa, its usually served cold. Other then that if you haven't had El Salto yet you're missing out

A Family Favorite. My family has been going to El Salto for over a decade and have enjoyed each visit. I highly recommend that you start out with a big bowl of queso to dip your freshly made chips into. Then venture into any of their authentic Mexican dishes with inexpensive combos that will leave you full and satisfied. Most of my family goes for the fajitas or the especial la casa, both of which are an experience. The homemade margaritas are on point and you'll find a wide variety of speciality drinks not offered at most places.

My favorite Mexican place!! I choose this place over any other

First walk-in we were not greeted for at least ten minutes. The hostess stand is lacking. You are served chips and there version of salsa. It tastes more like tomato a paste then authentic salsa. Food came quickly and was amazing. I am a vegitarian and my husband is a big meat man.

Wasn't brought the food I ordered. Good prices, but no flavor. I'm new to the area, but there must be better Mexican restaurants around. I wouldn't recommend this place

I had a terrible meal here. I ordered one of the steak dinners that was recommended. The steak was so tough that it was inedible. I complained and nothing was done about it until I called the waitress back a second time and asked for something else. I thought I couldn't go wrong with a burrito but I was wrong. The plate was hot, the beef was cool inside the shell and oversalted. Their was some cheese melted over the top and some red sauce that tasted of raw chili pepper. With no other accompaniments at all. No sour cream, etc. This turned in to a very disappointing evening after anticipating a good Mexican meal. The margarita was very good bit I wish I could have had two more to make for needing to buy dinner somewhere else. I didn't come expecting a 4 star meal but had hoped for at least an edible meal.

Who doesn't love this place? Great Mexican food,great service, and cheap! Awesome lunch deals.

My go-to Mexican place. The food is so simple yet addictive. In college, my friends and I once drove through a blizzard to have dinner there. Ah, college. :)

Excellant version of Mexican food. I have been dinning at this location about once a month for several years and have scene it transform from a Wendy's retrofit to very nice tastefully decorated walk in restaurant. <br/>The food has always been good, filling and presented tastefully. Try the Tacos El Salto, but with Chicken in place of Beef, and don't forget to have a Texas Margarita (have a designated driver they are strong) Over all the only location I have had more authentic Mexican food has been in Mexico and Long Beach Cali. A strong recommendation would be to go at lunch or between lunch and dinner less traffic.

Great food!!!

I do not understand "tdodsons" review. I eat here with my family at least once a week, sometimes more often. The food is very good. I have never been disapointed. Good food at good prices. Give it a shot.....

It's my favorite Mexican restaurant. Great flavor and large menu. They bring Mexico to Brooklyn

I love the white cheese dip and steak fajitas! Yum!

Nothing good to say. I can recall few Mexican places that are as bland and pedestrian as El Salto. I did not find the prices to be attractive at all.<br/><br/>The "salsa" seems to be pureed canned tomatoes with nothing added. The "guacamole" looked like mayonnaise with green food coloring added, without any real flavor. We had to flag our waiter down when we needed him.<br/><br/>The locals seem to like it for some reason. Frankly, given the choice of El Salto and Taco Bell, I'd choose the latter.

This is a popular restaurant and I understand why; it's okay food for not a lot of money. If you've never had good Mexican food, this place would rock. Going into the restaurant itself was confusing- it's a converted fast food joint (Wendy's?) and both doors are used still. Get inside and there's no clear hostess station. My food was bland and took half an hour to get to me. It was also cold and some of it over-salted when it *was* seasoned. The salsa was an embarrassment. In all honesty, I could deal with the slow if the food had more flavor and less salt. That said, the flan was excellent despite the rainbow sprinkles, the masa in the tamales was perfect and their cheeses were great.

Value Menu. Fairly typical casual Tex-Mex with one difference: the food is cheaper. The decor is nothing, and the service is efficient without having much personality. But the food and alcohol are priced lower than most other places around, and the food is good - not great, but good.

Everything tasted pretty good. Good seasoning, hot toppings and cheesy queso. Can’t complain about that!
