“ The food here is always excellent, but brunch only began today (June 22). We were probably the first customers for that. It was really extraordinarily good. 3 of us had western omelets, which were huge and tasty. I had the French Toast with a side of sausage. I usually take some home as leftovers, but this was too good to leave any at all, even with the sausage side having about twice what I expected. Will definitely be back for brunch on Sundays. ”

“ We heard the nachos were good, so we stopped by to try them out!! Sooo good and lots of toppings. The churros was delicious and service was fast! Would definitely recommend to others! ”

“ I’ve come to this restaurant a couple times and the food is great. I was a big Xitomate fan so I was super happy when this restaurant opened up. The food and drinks are great! I wish they served chips for free with salsa and I wish the restaurant was bigger, but ultimately, I would keep coming back. Went for Mother’s Day and the food was great. Service was extremely extremely slow but I guess they only had one person serving. Mimosas are great here!! Pictured here is the shrimp and crab enchiladas with tequila sauce. ”

“ If you want to enjoy some very large margaritas stop by! Additionally, the food is great, I highly recommend the paella. It was delicious and beautifully presented. ”

“ Cilantro’s Neighborhood Cantina is a special place for my husband and me, and we wish we could give it more than the maximum rating stars, not only for the quality of the food but for the exceptional people there. We have gone to Cilantro’s on numerous occasions since it first opened in Glenelg, MD and have enjoyed all of the Latin delicacies they have to offer (it’s scratch-made Latin food, not your typical Mexican taco joint). The reason we kept going back in addition to the food was because of the customer service from both Emily and Blake at the bar. No two people make you feel more special than they do. Well, here comes COVID-19 and we have been on lock down at home for six months with nowhere to go for our 35th wedding anniversary in September. We wanted a special experience and immediately thought of Cilantro’s so we talked to Emily to reserve their outdoor seating area and requested a special five-course surprise meal made by the chef/owner, Mr. Yampier Santana. They not only accommodated us but decorated the area for us with flowers and gifts, had our favorite libations at the ready (checking with us in advance to see what we wanted to drink) and then presented the MOST AMAZING six-course meal. Yampier outdid himself and presented an incredible array of delicacies where he was able to showcase his prowess of culinary mastery, and Emily made us feel like the term “VIP” was nothing compared to how we were treated. The Butternut Squash Soup, Scallops with Polenta, Chicken Tamale with Mole Sauce, Beet and Avocado Salad, Sea Bass with Cilantro Rice, and an incredible dessert of Fried Donuts and Plantains with Custard were to die for. We did not feel rushed at all, we felt safe in this environment, and knew that they exceeded our expectations in delivering a special experience for us. If you want a quick carry-out meal, a seat outside for a peaceful dinner experience, or a special occasion experience, they will not let you down. Without reservation we highly recommend Cilantro’s Neighborhood Cantina and their exceptional staff and owner. We feel like part of the “Cilantro’s family” and I hope they have a long-lasting stay here in Glenelg, MD. ”

“ The Chicken soup is one of my favorite things on the menu. Great food and great people. This is a regular stop for us. ”

“ Cilantro is a gem of a cantina nestled in Glenelg, MD, serving up Latin-inspired cuisine that never fails to impress. Despite its relatively small size, the restaurant packs a punch with its lively atmosphere and vibrant decor. The menu offers fantastic renditions and innovative takes on classic dishes, each prepared with exceptional care and bursting with flavor. Whether you're a fan of traditional Latin dishes or looking to try something new, Cilantro's offerings are sure to delight. The service is good, with friendly and attentive staff who try to make you feel welcome. The lively atmosphere adds to the overall dining experience, making it a perfect spot for a casual night out with friends or family. For anyone seeking excellent Latin-inspired cuisine in a fun and inviting setting, Cilantro is the place to be. ”

“ Oh my gosh - words don't describe how great this place is! The classic margarita: delicious and well-crafted with fresh squeezed lime juice. The guacamole: made to order with fresh tomatoes and cilantro - delicious. The mahi mahi tacos featured perfectly grilled filets with purple Cabbage and pineapple. The spinach and corn enchiladas were the best I've ever had with enchilada sauce worthy of licking the spoon. But the best part of our dinner was meeting Emily and Mary who immediately welcomed us and guaranteed we will be back. Very highly recommend. ”
