La Palapa Grill & Cantina Description:
The owners of El Azteca, the first to bring authentic Mexican cooking to the area, have since opened several more outposts, including this agreeable grill in the heart of historic Ellicott City. La Palapa, which means tiki shelter, charms with its star-shaped, pierced-tin lamps, colorful murals, and namesake thatch-roofed structures that stand in as bars in the various dining rooms. But it's the food that really sparkles. Tasty versions of the usual suspects are here---burritos, tacos, enchiladas---along with more sophisticated fare. The pork asado burrito is a standout, with its savory chunks of pork and piquant tomatillo sauce. Even the sides---smoky refried beans, spunky red rice---are prepared with care. Throw in a margarita, and you'll be ready to party, south-of-the-border style.
