27 Best Mexican Restaurants in Glendale

“The burritos are phaaatttttt. Amazing flavor on everything I've tried so far. My wife and I moved to Glendale and worried that we wouldn't find good tacos and burritos but this spot blows it out of the park. Carnitas: bomb. Carne asada: fantastic. Cabeza: Si, por favor. If you like lengua, go here. Their tacos are filled to the brim with meat. I haven't had a single bad item yet.“

“Literally the best bakery I have been to! I ordered my birthday cake from here and it did not disappoint. Not only was the cake designed beautifully, but it was super fresh, delicious and jam-packed with strawberry jam. Customer service was excellent as well. The employees/owners were very friendly and nice.“

“Just happened upon this place a couple of weeks ago and I've been back three times. Everything is sooo delicious. Love their hard shell carnitas tacos. Their beans are delicious too. They have a variety of homemade hot sauces which are so good. I want to try their soups. Authentic, homemade tasting food. It is now my go-to when I want Mexican.“

“This community, family owned restaurant has been a personal favorite since I first dined there in the early 90s. Over the years the quality of La Cabanita's Mexico-City style cuisine has always impressed me. House made salsas and tortillas, best chiles rellenos (including the labor-intensive chiles en nogada), taco de rajas con cream and other terrific menu offerings - not to mention great margaritas - make this place a local treasure. Kudos to the family and staff for maintaining La Cabanita through all the challenges seen over its 30+ years in business. So grateful to visit and share this wonderful restaurant with family and friends!“

“I stopped by today because I was in Glendale getting my car fixed. I could tell it was going to be good because the people were cming and going I have the best quesadilla I've ever had it was actually a quesadilla with pork and I got 2 chicken tacos to go for my daughter I can't wait to go back to this wonderful place it was so delicious.“

“I ordered a “pollo a la plancha, sope(pollo), burrito, carrot juice and a flan.The chicken was ok but could use a little more seasoning, the carrot ? juice was on point, and the sope was a little too hard. The service by the 2 young men was excellent! If the food had a little more seasoning, I would’ve rate them a 5 ⭐️! Prices are affordable and quantity of the food is good.“

“The perfect asada tacos, I kid you not. The meat is diced nice and small and is the perfect firmness while being juicy. The sala is the right blend of spicy, but doesn't burn going down, just leaves your mouth and lips warm. The chips are thin and salty and just a dream, especially when paired with the salsa. I travel a lot for work, so I have a lot of really mediocre tacos, and these are definitely not mediocre, they're fantastic.“

“Beautiful restaurant. First time for me and my girlfriend. We both loved the atmosphere. The decorations around the restaurant were very nice. I had the burrito, and it was huge. 1lb. She had the Tostada. Huge as well. Neither of us finished our meals. The waiter was very friendly. All the staff we encountered were friendly. Affordable prices as well.“

“I love these burritos. They have burgers & other things on the menu, but I haven't gotten past the burritos. Generously sized; loaded w/rice & beans, cilantro & onion, many choices of meat. And here is the kicker-- American Cheese! I know it isn't traditional, but it is super delicious. Patio seating only, so it is definitely fair weather dining for me. But the patio is clean and covered, and I think this is the best burrito in this part of town.“

“GREAT FOODZucchini fries 10/10Big portionGreat fryGreat flavorPastrami Sandwich was also wonderful!Tons of delicious thin sliced meatThe ladies behind the counter weren’t the friendliest, but that wouldn’t stop me from coming backKid-friendliness: Kids would love the burgers here and probably the chicken“

“Been coming here for a while, but i don't know why, i've never tried the "flaming style" burritos, they are fire! I was in between on getting the "bomba style" or that one, but Boris helped me a bit lol he was really cool tho! Food and service are lit!“

“This is such an enjoyable place to eat for a few reasons. I've only had the huevos rancheros and Chile Verde but both dishes were outstanding! The lady who takes the orders is a delight,also. Altogether a very pleasant experience. Hmm, I think I talked myself into getting some of their huevos now. It's a little hole in the wall as they say so you kind of have to look for it.“

“1st time coming here with my Son and his Mom And I'm a tell you Something my Son LOVED the Arcade Machines They had Here FREE CREDITS... And the food was Good ? I had the Asada Burrito ? and 2 Asada Tacos ? I'll Be Back Soon...Parking: It has a beautiful mural L.A Legends...“

“Love their newly renovated space with an upgraded menu and full bar. Beautiful spot to hang out and have good food, drinks and hookah. Great to share appetizers. Everything was delicious! Minus 1 star because the service was very slow. Towards the end we had to ask for our bill 4 times with 4 different staff because our server did not come around. Easy parking in their private lot or on the street. I'd like to try their brunch!“

“Very good restaurant! The food was very good and filling as well. I got the enchilada but I also tried the quesadilla. Our server Erick had outstanding service and he made sure to make the experience better. If you ever come definitely recommend asking for Erick he’ll make sure you have a good expeirence.“

“Always love their guacamole and chips and salsa and the drinks are strong and the beef fajitas are the best in the world and I have traveled. Missed this place after covid I didn't come for a long time as they stopped serving beef Fajitas. When I called to see if they had them this afternoon I was delighted to hear they did. So I immediately told mom we were going there for dinner! She had my other favorite there ... cheese enchiladas.“

“Food was good, but attention is a bit lacking , the gal took my order brought my food then went to chat with some other table people and it was only until another staff called her attention she brought the species. Then She was upset because I did not include the tip on my card despite of me giving cash instead. But the other staff were very attentive and cordial.“

“Great little Mexican restaurant. El Sol is a very quaint little Mexican restaurant in Montrose California. It's a very small restaurant, authentic Mexican food, delightful owner and staff, amazing service, wonderful all around! If you're going to be in the Crescenta Valley area, please make it a point to stop by El Sol and enjoy their fine Mexican cuisine!!Kid-friendliness: A special kid's menu and crayons for everyone! Your kids will love it.“

“Eat here! So good. I'm so glad they're in Glendale so near my house and not the bustling side of Glendale so it's such a chill spot in cute Kenneth Village. It's kinda hard to find good Mexican food in Glendale so I'm very happy they're here. They have so much variety and I've tried several things on their menu and all have been delicious. I would like a spicier dark red salsa but still yummy with that they have. Go visit!“

“I like the burgers. Tried the breakfast burrito today. Solid burrito. I like hot salsa. But their salsa is more like paste. It's not really my preference. I like chunky salsa like restaurants give you with chips. Next time I'll just get it with pico de gallo. It was still pretty good. I couldn't finish it in one sitting. Solid all around place. Can't go wrong with anything“

“I stopped by today because I was in Glendale getting my car fixed. I could tell it was going to be good because the people were cming and going I have the best quesadilla I've ever had it was actually a quesadilla with pork and I got 2 chicken tacos to go for my daughter I can't wait to go back to this wonderful place it was so delicious.“

“Love this place..I have been eating here since 1993 and it always hits all the Right Buttons..there Carnitas is very good and always flavorful.If you haven't tried Taco Naco I highly recommend this place..but worth any small inconvenienceSeating is limited and it is Cash Only...Parking: About 15 spaces...“

“Great food. The Chile Relleno Burrito Ultimate Style is a MASSIVE burrito, probably over 1.5 lbs of food. So good. The hot salsa from the salsa bar is tasty and spicy. Service is very friendly and prompt. Atmosphere is that of a small restaurant in a strip mall... but that isn't why you go here.“

“Stopped by on a Saturday afternoon with a homie and they ordered three asada burritos and I ordered a fish burrito which was amazing honestly. The fish was light but and flavorful and all the ingredients tasted really fresh, friend stated their tacos were good as well. I will say I did find the fish burrito to be a bit on the expensive side to not be accompanied by any rice or beans but honestly I feel like the taste justified the price after having ate the burrito. Would def come here againParking: Parking was pretty easy as they have a dedicated lot and there were plenty of spots when I arrived“

“I can very easily see why this place is so popular they’ve got a number of items priced under $10 the ingredients are fresh the wait is not very long at all and the sauce is that they give you a delicious actually because I live in Huntington Beach which is a good hour away from this place I cut my burrito and half so I could enjoy it tomorrow giving me two days of enjoyment. I ordered the steak burrito or the Kearny Asada burrito is it Stone and my only regret is that I didn’t order two of them. They have convenient payment options it’s a wonderful little area to visit and I highly recommend you stop and it’s very easy to see why this place is so popular.“

“Been trying all the Mexican places in the area since I moved here last year. This is hands down the best Mexican joint in La Cresenta/ La Canada Montrose area. I ordered 4 entrees and all were excellent. My wife and baby girl agreed. I will make this my number one for Mexican going forward. Muy bueno.“
