8 Best Mexican Restaurants near Highlands

“Delicious, fresh food with Casera style flavor. 4 out of 4 meals were rated 5 stars! Service was excellent, especially, while they were packed! Ambiance was quaint with heavy carved wood trims ala Mexicana. Recommended by our hotel desk clerk from Veracruz, MX. She is correctomundo!“

“On my list for ALL TIME best margaritas anywhere! Great spot for casual lunch. We had the daily soup which was Baja chicken soup and the queso with chips! Awesome all the way around. A bonus was the great music, owners Playlist was unique upbeat and just a little out of the ordinary. Highly recommend!Opps forgot to take a picture before I was almost finished with my yummy margarita!“

“Best food, drinks, and service in the area.“

“What a gem! Not much of an atmosphere but who cares. Incredible food. Quesabirria was so good. I love how the tacos are infused with the broth but still very crunchy. Usually quesabirria is soggy, but not here. Wish I lived closer, bc I would go couple times a week if I could.“

“This is definitely a place to stop while you are in this area. My wife enjoyed steak fajitas while I had the monster chimichanga. Unbelievably good food. This was the best chimichanga I have ever had in my life. Our server was very friendly and the place was very clean. We also got to watch the goldfish swim through the window while we ate. There was so much food that my wife took home a large portion of her meal and ended up making five meals out of it. Their portions are large and a good deal for the money. We will be returning here!“

“My husband and I have visited every year we come to Sapphire Valley. They have the best service, prices on the food and bar beverages are excellent and everything tastes awesome. I got the nachos fajitas cancon with a Bahama momma and hubby got fajitas with beef, shrimp and scallops with a margarita. This trip we may have to go twice while we're here.“

“Very Good Mexican Food in Cashiers. The place has a very large menu, with a wide variety of choices--all at reasonable prices. I think the most expensive thing on the menu is a steak dish at like $15. Most choices are in the $8 to $9 range. The service is fast, so everything comes out hot. There is a full bar and their Texas margaritas are the best!“

“Passing through, Took a random chance on Chile Loco. We are beyond glad we did. For one the people are super nice. We got the Mexican style tacos, and they were amazing! My husband ended up trying all meats… and still end up ordering two more. The Al pastor and chorizo were definitely our top favorites. My kid ended up with the hard tacos (ground beef) and she left nothing! We also got horchata! It’s was delicious!!! This place is a must try! It’s clean, people are friendly and it’s delicious! Wish I would have taken more pics ? but we were too busy enjoying all the food.“
