Papi's Tacos Towson

I arrived a Papi’s Towson /taco joint on 9/13/2022 at 7:00 pm. I noticed a sign on the door stating that all carry out orders are subject to a gratuity. Not a good first impression. I went to the bar to place a carry out order. I ordered a Fajita Mixto, Birria tacos and a Signature Altos Margarita. The Margarita was $9.50, served in a tumbler. I watched it being made and there was nothing impressive about the preparation or the bland taste. I was sure it was a mistake, however it was not. I got my food to go. There was no gratuity on the check. Total amount for 3 items, $49.50 plus tax, $52.76. I gave a 15% gratuity and left. Total bill with gratuity was $60.18. I took the food home. I was completely disappointed in what I received. The portions were minuscule and the food was bland. The tortillas were the smallest I have ever seen. A quick estimate of the food cost was about $4.50 for which I paid $49.50. Overpriced small portion bland food is not where I will spend my money. I am on

The moment that I walked in, my gut said “leave” but I decided to give a try. My gut was right. I asked the host that I wanted to order “to go” she barely answered me saying that I need to go to the bar and she walked away and sit at the bar and grabbed her cell, I was standing there. I thought she was going to give me more info or show me so I asked her again while she was at cell and with an attitude said “ask anyone here” and back to her cell. Waitress at bar were busy and talking between them so I asked again. Someone gave the menu, I asked another lady and she answered my question. Ordered. Food tasted horrible. Super pricey. When I opened the box, the tacos are microscopic. The carne asada tasted like nothing and it was cold. The Al Pastor were even worse. Each tiny and bland tacos cost about $4-5 each! Ridiculous for the quality and size. Beans were just ok. Rice taste really bad. It’s like microwaveable kind, it’s uncooked. Do not waste your money and time. I do not recommend t

Leisurely lunch. Food tasty and nice presentation. $7 enchilada special was just the right size, spiced vixen mule very, very good, short rib quesadilla was full of meat. Server was a little sassy about corn being gluten free. Great selection of food, regular, gluten free and vegan menus with large selections on each. Decor and music authentic Mexican shabby chic. Parking lot is is better than paid parking in other areas of Towson
