What Ry H likes about Ernesto’s Fine Mexican Food:
I always turn to this place for Mexican food. The prices are reasonable and the food is top-notch. Everything tastes fresh and the hot salsa, which I love, is amazing! The only downside is that sometimes they forget to include it in my takeout order, which can be disappointing. View all feedback. What Colleen C doesn't like about Ernesto’s Fine Mexican Food:
Good was disappointing. Our party of 5 tried different items and all agreed the dishes lacked taste. Black beans had no taste, rice was bland. Various meats we had all lacked sufficient seasoning. Overall, not to our taste. Would not recommend. View all feedback.

Best Mexican food I've had in my 10 years living in the Baltimore Washington area. I'd keep going back for the service alone, but the food is excellent!

Food was great as was the service. It does get crowded so you may have to wait for a table. We waited 10 minutes on a Wednesday night at 8pm.
