50 Best Mexican Restaurants in Little Rock

“Best Mexican food I’ve had since living on the west coast. Brought me back to my childhood! So so good!“

“This is probably the best Mexican restaurant in town I really enjoyed my meal I had a Taco salad and Campechano tacos and my missus had the Enchilada plate. The homemade restaurant style salsa was great as well as the cheese dip was tasty but was a bit on the watery side for my taste. So If you're looking for great Mexican food I highly recommend this restaurant for your entire family.

The only issue I had during my entire visit was my taco salad bowl was slightly overcooked which is clearly visible in my images but it still had a great taste. My server offered to have the dish remade but it still tasted fine to me even though the shell was clearly overcooked.“

“Very comfortable.. Family atmosphere... Smiles !!! Cant ask for more... o yea. GREAT FOOD“

“Food is absolutely delicious“

“Incredible Catering for Our Daughter’s Graduation Party! 🎓🌮🇲🇽 We recently hired this amazing team to cater our daughter’s graduation party, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. From the moment the food arrived, it was clear we made the right choice. Everything was fresh, beautifully presented, and absolutely packed with authentic Mexican flavor. Will absolutely use them again. 💙💙“

“Great food and service! Definitely recommend“

“Very fast. Wonderful food. If you order a large cheesedip to go they give you two drinking cups full of both cheesedip and salsa and an entire sack full of chips. Delicious! Friendly! Great service.“

“Auténtica comida mexicana sabor casero sabor a una tierra con tradiciones con sabores exquisitos“

“My daughter chose Local Lime for her special 16th birthday party and wanted to invite 25 of her friends. I was so worried about having that many teens show up without a guaranteed room, but everything about our experience was flawless. Our tables/area for 27 was ready exactly on time, our server (Justin B) did absolutely amazing, the food was hot and everything was correct. We were blown away by how perfect the entire large party went. Thank you for helping us celebrate our baby girl’s milestone!“

“The food was wonderful. Our server was great until it came to time to pay. Our bill was $49.74, my husband paid with a $100. When she brought our change, she laid down $50. My mother once said, they are stealing your money, even if it is .26¢ . So we left her a note on the receipt.“

“I love this place! Absolutely fantastic food and service! You are missing out if you do not try this place.“

“My husband and I arrived at Taco and Tamale Co in the Heights as we were scouting for places to eat and ended up sitting at the bar for amazing service. The restaurant was packed, yet we still received excellent service. We placed a to go order for our main course food and had cheese dip and chips during the wait. Very nice environment. Friendly people. The food was delicious. I had the 12 tamale meal. I will definately be back. I'm so glad we discovered this place.“

“Yesterday afternoon my husband and I came in and the hospitality was amazing!! First my husband tripped outside and the waitress and waiters were on it came to help immediately!! We had just left Carti and he was very weak from a treatment. The meal was awesome and the waiter we had was first class!! The next was getting back to the car and my husband was very weak, again here this guy came to help in anyway he could!! I thank all of y'all!! You never know what love and kindness means till you're in these shoes!! There are good people in this world!! We will be back!! Go try this wonderful restaurant!!“

“I don't know if they are the best in town or not, but I highly doubt there is any better. I've eaten a lot of tacos all over the country, but these are some of the best! Might seem like a strange place for a food truck but I can't quit going back.“

“my mom ordered some chicken tacos along with some cheese dip for me today this was my very first time trying food from here from the Bryant location I absolutely loved it! if I could I would give this place 200 stars 🌟“

“Always good...i always get the chicken or steak burrito...huge, fresh and tasty. Real food.Update: Seems more expensive...however, I am a bit broker... maybe that's it, I'm just broke.$13 burrito. It's large fresh & great...but I can get great indoor restaurants for that level of price.“

“Hidden Gem with Amazing Mexican Food

We stumbled upon this little hole-in-the-wall Mexican restaurant and were pleasantly surprised! The food was fantastic—authentic, flavorful, and well-prepared. We had the steak fajitas and a chimichanga, and both were cooked perfectly. The fajitas were sizzling hot with tender, well-seasoned steak, and the chimichanga was crispy on the outside and packed with delicious fillings.

Despite it being a Friday night, it wasn’t overly busy, which made for a nice, relaxed dining experience. It’s one of the only places in the area with sit-down seating, so it’s a great option if you’re looking for a cozy spot to enjoy a meal. Service was friendly and efficient, and the prices were reasonable for the quality of food. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area!“
