Los Chorros guacamole seems to have a creamy quality that I'm not enamoured
of since I'm a purist, but is made fresh at the site.  It does not seem to
be made out of those plastic smooth skinned avocados like some guac is, but
it isn't bad. It is still better than most guac in restaurants, which seems
to come from a can these days.  I tend, therefore, to make my own, with XTRA 
garlic.

Taco Fiesta guac is made fresh, and I find it yummy.  Properly lumpy with 
chunks of veggies in and left mild.  If you want HOT you can kick it up a 
notch from the salsa bar. It is also made from the proper type of avocado, 
and has a smooth texture.

As for other places... well I mostly go to Los Chorros when I want Mexican 
or Salvadorean, though I recall decent guac a the place on Route 1 in Colleg 
Park.  I am trying to remember the name... ARG  I cannot.  It is on the 
Southbound side south of the beltway and north of the campus.
