El Golfo in Hyattsville
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. We're 14 min · 5.7 mi — 8739 Flower Avenue, Silver Spring.

We stumbled in on a Monday and there was good food and music! Vegan options are great, ceviche was a hit and Janet was the kindest server! Will be back!
Great as always! Quiet when there’s no live music, but the live music is always good. It’s a matter of what you’re in the mood for!
