#3 Authentic Mexican food at Arcos Restaurant






Vickie and I 'stumbled' upon this gem of a restuarant one morning while running errends in Fells Point. We decided to come back for dinner. The first thing that impressed us about Arcos was the setting. The large, brick-paved courtyard in the back is perfect for a summer evening dinner. With the piped music, and grotto-like feel, we quickly felt very far from upper Fells Point, or Baltimore for that matter. We quickly ordered margaritas, thinking that any Mexican place worth its weight in Cuervo Gold would have good drinks. Well, we were not dissapointed...at all. Woooh! Anyway, dinner was excellent: home made torillas, fresh salsa, amazing enchilladas and tender barbacoa beef. By far the best Mexican food in Baltimore. We will be back, we will tell our friends. What a great find.
