50 Best Mexican Restaurants in Calgary

“Israel is the best waiter to complement the outstanding food served at Bodega. Israel knows our order by heart and we never have to complain about the service he provides. Bravo Israel and Bodega... We lived in Mexico for 13 years and this food is comparable or better. Kudo's to Bodega...“

“Vine a la taqueria porque me llamo mucho la atencion probar unos tacos, ya que llevaba años sin probar unos buenos tacos. Me pedi unos de birrias y vaya la sorepresa que me dio cuando vi que estaban doraditos y que venian con su consome. No solo eso, estaban riquisimos, recomiendo mucho este lugar si estas en busca de unos buenos tacos. Se la rifo el viejon!“

“wonderful food great lil location“

“I am mexican and this is authentic. The Tacos de Suadero (brisket) are the best I have ever had, even in Mexico. Good prices and Friendly service. Absolutely delicious!“

“Really enjoyed the tacos and soup here during our time in Banff!“

“Casa Catrina in Calgary is extraordinary! We have been coming since its first year. Just gets busier and busier as word spreads! Best in all Calgary!“

“I had it a while back with my fiancée! Come check it out when someone gets a chance to!“

“Hi there, i just wanna thank Arsh for making delicious dinner, although it was my first ever visit to this restaurant yet she handled to make me familiar with all the cuisines. I highly highly recommend this place to everyone as it is extremely hygienic and with multifarious options.“

“Delicious pupusas and tostadas! Great value priced menu“

“Possibly the only great taco place in the city. So delicious, always hits the spot. My only gripe is it closes a little early and I usually crave these late at night hahaha, but it doesn't detract from my rating or the taste. The chimichangas are also the bomb. I recommend getting a side of broth with whatever you're eating to dip, as its really amazing. I'm not a big rice fan, but they do the rice so well here that I could eat a bowl of it.“

“Prepare your taste buds for a fiesta! Sabores' menu is a journey through Mexico's rich culinary heritage. Every dish is thoughtfully prepared using fresh, high-quality ingredients, resulting in flavors that dance on your palate. From classic favorites like mouthwatering street-style tacos, enchiladas bursting with cheesy goodness, to their signature platters that sizzle with an array of grilled meats, each bite is a testament to the chef's mastery in the kitchen. Their salsas are an explosion of taste, ranging from mild to tongue-tingling spicy. The guacamole is a creamy, heavenly delight that pairs divinely with tortilla chips. You can tell that they are made fresh with care, complementing the dishes flawlessly. The friendly, attentive and knowledgeable staff at Sabores deserve special mention. Their passion for the cuisine is evident. I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant to anyone who appreciates genuine Mexican cuisine.“

“Had the pleasure of eating lunch there yesterday for the first time! The food was absolutely amazing, everything was authentic including the salsas. The restaurant is decorated with vibrant Mexican decor and the music was festive, I felt like I was on vacation and visiting a restaurant somewhere in Mexico. We will definitely be returning soon!“

“Best place to have mexican food. always fresh and hot. 😋😋😋“

“terrible service tonight...had to ask 3-4 times for part of my order.... never even got out water our whole meal... was never asked how everything was... and it's not very busy...especially with 4 wait staff....terrible experience“

“I've been three times now and the food has been amazing every time. Comes out very quickly, and there's plenty of meat in the tacos. I really like the carintas and the pescado. The tortillas are so delicious, I'm always tempted to buy the big pack in the freezer. I also like the little salsa bar that they have, though I wish there were small containers you could use. I also wish they had better hours, but when I'm able to make it there, it's so worth it.“

“Ordered a crispy chicken bowl for me to eat my food a few hours ahead of time and was pleasantly surprised the chicken was still crispy and not soggy unlike chipotle. Food was flavorful and the portion size was great can’t wait to try fresh“

“really good food & big portions“

“Good flavour!! Real Mexican food“

“This place in Calgary hit home... For starters the atmosphere brought nostalgia with retro Corona tables & Pedro Infante portraits, etc. The tacos are amazing, the atmosphere is cosmopolitan but traditional Mexican style, super friendly staff, and the mezcal drinks were on point.“

“I really loved Quesada and am very disappointed they took Beyond Meat off the menu. Sadly I will no longer be patronizing them as a result. 😞“

“One of the best Mexican restaurants in Calgary. An ever changing menu of delicious food makes this a place to return to and it has never disappointed in all the times I have been there. Located perfectly for a meal and a night out. It's atmosphere speaks to the casual but yet can cater to a more up-scale. Perfect for an intimate date night, a casual dinner, a group function, a quick bite or a social meetup.“

“unbelievable actually how they are made“

“I order the burrito bowl on DoorDash for pickup and they had hard time getting it and when I reached there is was not ready but they made it right away and gave so good amount of food that I had to transfer it to other bowl just love to visit them again and again they are going really good job the girls are just rocking it“

“Love the freshness. -- I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was build-your-own burrito style. I thoroughly enjoyed my personalized giant burrito, with vegan cheese, to boot! And I definitely look forward to coming back. The only thing that would make my burrito better would have been if they had sweet potatoes to add to it.. menu suggestion? :)“

“Forgot to add on my last comment. Their menu comes with amazing pictures so you will see exactly what you are getting.“

“I really loved Quesada and am very disappointed they took Beyond Meat off the menu. Sadly I will no longer be patronizing them as a result. 😞“

“Los chiles rellenos están excelentes! 100% Recomendados!“

“Had an amazing burrito here! It was packed with fresh ingredients, perfectly seasoned, and the portion was just right. The flavors were spot-on, and the staff was friendly and quick. Definitely a go-to spot for a delicious, satisfying burrito!“

“Look, I'm a sucker for Taco Time. It's no one's favourite Mexican place, but whenever the craving strikes, I go here and I get fast service, tasty tacos, and I always satiate my craving for Mexi-fries and hot sauce. Unlike many fast food places, Taco Time never forgets any items in my takeout bag. Can't beat the cheap Taco Tuesday deals, either.

It is what it is and yeah, I like it, okay?“

“It’s a must try/ have. Just note when you do, all you want is to go back. Everything is fantastic, the food, the drink and the people! And the lime Margaritas on the rocks double shot. Omg delicious! I don’t know anywhere that can top what they got going on.“

“Today I picked up some guacamole and corn tortilla chips and a frozen chicken enchilada casserole. All of theses were delicious. Excellent flavours. I would highly recommend shopping at this little store and taking home some super tasty homemade creations. Thank you, Salsita! I will see you again soon.“

“Great service and fun atmosphere“

“I was craving something cheesy and savoury and settled on the Bowl B Box. It was worth it! Reasonably priced, packed full of rice and veggies, good variety! Really good value for money. Plus my server was so pleasant and friendly. Thank you!“

“Fabulous going at happy hour. Great deals‼️ We lucked out and were seated in Cami's section and her service is beyond professional, friendly, knowledgeable and outgoing. Love the table side guacamole, birria tacos with consommé, and margaritas. The selection of tequilas is truly amazing. They do really lack in the hot sauce dept though. Nothing mild or subdued. You'd think they'd have more than 3... The only complaint we and other tables around us had was a large children's bday party upstairs on the 2nd level with kids literally screaming and blowing whistles non stop. Absolutely wrecked the experience and we had to leave...“

“We were here last week and had a super yummy dinner and the best service even tho the place was hopping for a Thursday evening

Food is authentic and although they were out of Pacifico they had lots of other food Mexican drinks too !

My husband Ed and I had a good chat with Alex who is generous and kind and enhanced the experience

We will be back every chance we get !

🇨🇦🤍💚❤️ 🇲🇽“

“Outstanding Service by Khushi!!!

I had an amazing experience at BarBurrito, all thanks to the incredible service from Khushi. She was friendly and super efficient. She greeted me with genuine smile and made sure my order was exactly the way I wanted — fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared.

It’s rare to see such professionalism and positive energy, especially during busy hours. You can tell she care about her work and customers. I’ll definitely be coming back.

Keep up the amazing work, lady.“

“Ela was an amazing server! She was very bubbly and open. She was patient with taking my order and had an amazing smile. Also, Selwyn was very respectful and took my order well. The food came out quite fast and was quite tasty. I had the beef taco which was a a solid choice and for a good price. Highly recommend if you are going to chinook!“

“Tasty, healthy, fresh and affordable meals! Amazing staff! What more could you ask for?“

“West Springs strEATS has great food selection as well as prompt and friendly service. The variety on the menu is great as both my husband and I like different food and we can both get what we want without compromising. Highly recommend trying the Mango Shrimp Tacos and Perogy Poutine at this location!“

“The service was quick and the staff were friendly, which made the whole experience easy and chill.
The place was clean, tables wiped down, and everything felt well-kept.
I also tried one of their salads—fresh, tasty, and way more filling than I thought it’d be.
Definitely a solid spot when you want something fast and fresh.“

“Food looks lovely can’t wait to try it🤗“

“I love Chilito's, the food is awesome, authentic and delicious! The service is smiley and quick, the Corona's are always cold! Plus you can check out all the action on 17th Ave! I go with friends, family and business associates, everybody love the place!“

“I am currently here for my 5th time since moving to the area a month ago. I have to commend the team. ALWAYS efficient, friendly, fast and fabulous ingredients. I am Vegan so the beyond meat can be dry. I always find this location to have FRESH ingredients. No dry beyond crumble. Thank you for having such a reputable establishment. You are exemplary. See you much more.“

“This is our number one go to restaurant, me and my kids all LOVE the portion of food they have along with the taste, they have always been friendly when me and my younger children go in and we were always greeted with a hello and a smile. Staff are super friendly and anyone who is looking for yummy Papusa’s id send them here 😊💗 along with carne asada (yum).“

“The chips, the cilantro sauce, the guac. Oh man, the guac. We love ordering for parties. Makes for an incredible meal, plenty of protein and so fun. All the salsas are great but the cilantro sauce is so unique and everyone loves it. Thank you for the beautiful catering offerings.“

“Restaurant is very clean friendly staff and great prices.“

“Gawdam

I’m from Houston and I’ve lived in SE Asia and Europe for the last decade and a half. Wife and I landed in Calgary yesterday and this is the first restaurant we visited. Thought I was going to pass out. Damn near a religious experience. Thank you guys for feeding me; with Mexican food this great and the Conservative Party being hilariously inept and begging to be nudged in front of a train, screw going back to the States—I think I’m staying here for good.“
