Enchiladas & Chile Rellenos in Hyattsville, MD
Red-and-green topped enchiladas, a creamy seafood version, and egg-battered chile rellenos. We're 14 min · 5.7 mi from Hyattsville, at 8739 Flower Avenue in Silver Spring.
Hyattsville's Route 1 Arts District has plenty of taprooms and not much table-service Latin seafood, so the run up Queens Chapel Road to El Golfo covers what the corridor can't. Fourteen minutes for salmon Acapulco and a $20 sangria pitcher is a trade the Arts District crowd keeps making.
From Hyattsville we're 14 min · 5.7 mi, which makes enchiladas a short trip rather than a whole day's errand.
