Sometimes the best meals aren’t around the corner, they’re a short drive away. I recently hit the road to Papa Joe’s Authentic Mexican Restaurant in Westminster, Maryland, and let me tell you, this spot is a whole experience. With a cozy vibe and flavors that’ll transport you straight to Oaxaca, Papa Joe’s brought the heat.
We started off with their perfectly seasoned salsa and crispy chips, thin just how I like ‘em. The queso with house-made chorizo was rich and savory, and their guacamole hit every creamy, zesty note. The star of the show? Their chicken enchiladas with sour cream sauce, a nostalgic favorite that’s hard to find in the DMV. I also tried their green chile enchiladas, juicy birria tacos, and wrapped it all up with tres leches cake and fried ice cream that left me speechless.
Wash it all down with a watermelon Paloma or a spicy margarita, and you’ve got a full-on fiesta. If you’re in the DMV and craving authentic, hearty, and comforting Mexican food, trust me, this spot is worth the trip.
