Reviews for Mother's Cantina 78th Street in Ocean City, MD

By far the best Mexican food I’ve ever had. My family went there for dinner while on vacation and we will most definitely be... going back when we visit again next year. Staff was super friendly as well. All around great experience. Will be order there hotsauce as well to have at home! Read more

We made reservations and were seated immediately. We had a party of six. Our server arrived in a reasonable period of time and... took the drink order. The drinks were very good. Our food was also excellent which consisted of fajitas and burritos. None of usleft with a take out box. While the menu describes the fajitas as "a huge" amount, I didn't find that to be the case. I wouldestimate the chicken portion was about 3 oz and the steak portion was similar. Our server was on point and efficient. Read more

Would you like to spend your entire paycheck on dinner? No? Ok how about just a quick margarita for happy hour? Sure that’ll... be $30 and half the pitcher will be ice. On the bright side our waiter was nice. Read more

I’ve heard that the 28th street location was amazing, so I thought I’d try this one. Keep driving folks, it’s not worth... it. I’ve been more satisfied about a 7-eleven corn dog than the culinary travesty I was served here tonight. We were seatedpromptly at a wobbly table, but whatever. It took 10 minutes for the server to take our drink order. My margarita was pathetic.It was basically an undercover lime slushy, where one wedge of lime was used to flavor the ice. It was served in a pub glass forsome reason. I’m usually pretty patient for service and food (especially post covid) but we waited 55 minutes for 2 burritos.When they arrived, the beans were so cold the cheese thrown on top wasn’t melted. The rubbery tortilla of my chimichanga wasno longer crunchy and felt like I was cutting into a balloon. I think our food was just sitting in the back somewhere for a halfhour. The rice was under cooked and there was a ridiculous amount of cumin on everything. Most tex-mex is well worth the GIdistress. Not this time. I blame the sea of black beans worthy of Poseidon’s rule. End. Read more

Went for dinner tonight around 5. The food was good. Not great but good. The guacamole doesn’t have much flavor other than... avocado. Patio is dog friendly and the staff is friendly and nice. Our waiter was great! He checked on us frequently and ourfood arrived quick and correctly. Check your tab before paying though, gratuity is automatically added to the bill regardless ofparty size.

I sat at the upstairs bar and got the Chorizo Quesadilla with a 2oz side of queso and the Prickly Pear Margarita. Both were... large portion sizes and you got more than you paid for in both cases. The house made hot sauces were amazing, and the staffaccommodating and friendly. I really enjoyed the side of their insane inferno sauce that the Bartender suggested. If you likedelicious heat I definitely recommend pairing it with whatever you are eating. Read more

Amazing!!! Our group enjoyed the Chile Relleno, the steak fajitas, the steak tacos, guacamole, and fried ice cream....each dish... was incredible. Flavored perfect and filling. Definitely going to be another one of my 'spots' when I'm in town. The owner is sosweet as well as the servers! Read more

I read some bad and some good reviews. I decided to try it myself. I wasn’t let down. Prices are fair, portions are good.... House salsa and chips come to your table with the meal. We ordered queso which was very good. They have Dos Equis on tap andsome nice mixed drinks. My wife and daughter got portabella fajitas, my other daughter got a chimichanga and I got steakfajitas. Everything was good and our waitress was nice as well as attentive to our table. I’d do this again. Read more
