La Food Marketa: A Hidden Gem for Latin American Delights in Baltimore

This place is a hidden gem in Pikesville. The food is good, very krispy wings, nice tacos, nachos and fajitas. The drinks are awesome with their mixologist the Lovely Linh and her Gran Mango Marga. Great area, lake across the street, simply nice.

Looking over some old pictures and realized that I never reviewed this gem. Went to La Food Marketa just to try the Taco Tower and it was phenomenal. They say it can feed up to 4 but it’s very possible to feed maybe 6 or 7 ppl easy. It’s so much good food and you get to build it with choices. Definitely give this place a try and get the Tower if you go with a larger group. I believe it was around $100 but completely worth it. Follow more reviews @IG: Robthefoodguy @eat_n_critique

The food and the decor was great. Biggest negative was the automatic door behind me constantly opening and closing during my meal letting in the hot summer air. I enjoyed the margaritas and their version of a Miami Vice. We will be back to try the regular menu...taco tower looks VERY enticing.

Definitely a MUST TRY. After doing some shopping , I decided to stop by and give the place a try . I got there right when the doors opened at 12pm . The place is large in the inside with plenty of sitting either at the bar or in dining area and very clean . I decided to sit at the bar . The bartender was real cool. The calamari is by far my favorite it was made to perfection . The tacos( turkey , fish and pulled pork ) were beyond fulfilling . The strawberry margarita was just an added bonus . Definitely would go back .

La Food Marketa delivers beautifully crafted dishes with bold, creative flavors. Every plate felt thoughtful and well executed, and there’s truly something for everyone on the menu. A fun, vibrant spot with great energy and even better food — highly recommend!

Our food was delicious and the service was friendly! Their outdoor seating area was perfect for the start of fall weather. They had awesome margaritas also!

UPDATE 5\4\25 Party of two. Dined outside. Nice selection of Mexican dishes that they put their own twist on. Our first time here. Party of 8 and we dined outside. Food and drinks were great as well as our waiter. Unfortunately they were out of the scallop tacos that two of us wanted to order. We'll be back for sure.

I checked this restaurant out with a friend who liked it a lot. She'd been here a few times. We ordered quite a few things off the menu. The Pan De Queso. These are cute little cheese balls wrapped in dough. The bread portion is thin and it's way more cheese than dough. Still very good! The Calamari Definately one of the better calamari I've ever had. Not rubbery at all. Coated and fried. It came with two different types of dips. The green dip was something I've never had before, couldn't quite place what it was. Finely chopped scallion with other ingredients maybe. The other dip was good too. I enjoyed both with the calamari. It was also a good portion. Crunchy chicken wings. My friend got this dish. She enjoyed them. They came with dips. One she enjoyed and the other she didn't like as much but the wings themselves she said were good. Shrimp in coconut sauce My friend ordered this dish. I didn't try it though I regret that now. She enjoyed it and it looked delicious. Crispy Fish Tacos Decent tacos though not the best I've ever had. I think the fish could have used more seasoning instead of relying on the toppings to season the dish. They were pretty and though there were a lot of toppings the fish portion was still decent. I also had a peach based cocktail who's name I can no longer remember. The peach on top is soaked in alcohol (boubon? I can't remember) and it had a peach based liquor as well as some other flavors. I had two. They were very good. Overall a wonderful lunch. Great atmosphere and service.
