Best Mexican Restaurant
El Salto II
8816 Waltham Woods Road, Carney, (410) 668-3980
Your taste buds are roaming south of the border, but you're short on time and cash. No sweat. Just go north of the city to El Salto II. Sip a margarita or suck on a Dos Equis, and savor the salsa while you contemplate a menu with 35 combination plates and more. Within seconds of ordering, it seems, your server is offloading the multiple hot entrées he's balancing from wrist to shoulder on one arm. You can round up the regulars--bulging burritos, chunky chimichangas, racy rellenos, fab fajitas. But go on, try something more. A shrimp cocktail features a dozen big ones with hunks of avocado in a mild red sauce. Hell, we even love the T-bone steak, served with silky smooth refritos and Spanish rice.
