6 Best Mexican Restaurants near Alexandria

“In the area doing some estate sale shopping! Popped in for lunch, and were so glad we did! Awesome food and service! I didn't catch our servers name, but she was very attentive & friendly. Will definitely stop again when in the area. I built my own platter. I had a beef/cheese chile rellano, a chicken tamale, and a beef burrito. It came with rice & beans. I had them put cheese sauce on top. Loved their chips and salsa too!!“

“Delicious food and great atmosphere. It's been a long time since I have had mexican this good! Good was hot and fast with great friendly and knowledgeable service from Rhiannon. The menu has a wide selection and in my opinion more traditional and authentic than most restaurants. They go the extra mile and choose not to cut corners on every dish I saw.Kid-friendliness: Chicken nuggets and fries. Highchair and booster seats. Many booths for kids in boosters and can sit still or quite a few lower tables great for small families in need of both.“

“My husband and I moved to Calhoun County in 2020 and have been eating at Baja every week since we arrived. It is so consistently good. Rarely have we ever waited for a table, even though the place is perpetually full. They are just great at turning things around. Tonight, though, we discovered they have a new chef, and an always top-notch restaurant has actually become better. The chef's new enchilada sauce and ground beef are magical. Their fajita butter makes anything addictive. If you are looking for healthy options, get a plate of their veggies from the a la carte menu. Or get the huge bowl of their chicken soup with generous portions of avocado in it. Their staff and managers are wonderful. It's very kid-friendly. TVs to watch your ball games. Great decor around holidays. Visit!“

“It was mine and my husband’s first time after we have been following Heirloom Taco on Insta. We drove all the way from Gadsden and it was soooooo worth the drive! We each had a taco plate with different tacos. I had the fried chicken, carne asada and the birria tacos with pinto beans and Mexican rice. It was awesome. I also ordered the tastiest spicy mango margarita and my husband ordered the oatchata and that was delicious as well. The staff was also very kind and accommodating. We loved the decor and the location! All around, very great spot! We will be making the drive back!“

“We were promptly shown to our seat and the chips and salsa were there by the time the waitress came to take our drink order. She was very helpful, nice and the food was amazing. There was a good portion of it plus it was tasty. We will definitely be coming back again soon!“

“Personal opinion only means so much, each person has their own tastes, i enjoyed a Fajita quesadilla, large cheese dip and a side of jalapenos, never ate fajitas before i visited, they tasted nice for me but my friend said tasted dry, that was probably because it fell out the quesa. Overall i enjoyed it here, would go again.“
