Papa Joe's Mexican Restaurant

Stopped by yesterday with the girls, I was disappointed mostly with the service. My waitress didn’t even come check on us, had an attitude when asked if we could get a side of sour cream and red/green salsa. Her service was just terrible. However I can say the young man who asked if we’d like some boxes was very polite and attentive. I was a bit disappointed with the food. Food was very bland for it being “authentic” Mexican food. I had a torta de pollo empanizado and I felt like the bread and cheese had an off taste to it, the breaded chicken needed some seasoning. My one cousin had chilaquiles verdes de pollo and she said that the tortillas tasted undercooked, flavor was bland. My other cousin (who goes there very often) got a huarache de bistec and a tamale and she only had something to

Papa Joe's is our go to for great Mexican food in the area. They always have great service and on one occasion during a carry out order, they called me because they had forgotten something in my order. We were able to turn around and were saved the frustration that comes with getting all the way home (20 minutes away) to find something missing.

I started to look into the menu and I must to confess that everything sounds delicious, also the music was just accurate to our season, not to loud, not to low just telling you what season we are. The drinks menu is also another highlight on this review, all those wonderful names on those drinks were just inviting me to get

Food and service were fantastic! I look forward to returning next time I’m in the Finksburg area!

Papa Joe's has been the absolute go to spot making it the crown jewel of true authentic (primarily southern Mexican affair) for nearly 2 decades now. I meet people from time to time that almost aggressively disagree. These ,"complaints," come from the people who have tried one meal and one meal only, apparently not finding it to thete satisfaction, who then proceed to the ," I went there once, and it was awful," To all and everyone of you, that have come to this restaurant only one time and deemed it as you have. Shame on all of you. This restaurant goes above and beyond. Including fixing any dishes found to be unsatisfactory. The only problem is , if all the ," one timers," actully spoke up instead of staying silent then carring on to write a hateful review, you may know that the hospita
