50 Best Mexican Restaurants in Gilbert

“This place was COOL. Chips & Salsa. The Chili chicken burrito was recommended and it was amazing. Our server Tyanna was BEAUTIFUL, friendly and very attentive. She catered to our every need. we will be back“

“Awesome food. Great staff makes you feel welcome and remembers you!“

“Some of these one star reviews honestly make me laugh because half of them don’t even say what was supposedly wrong. It feels like people are just looking for a reason to hate on a place that’s actually doing something different.

Lujo’s isn’t trying to be another basic Mexican restaurant serving the same food you can get on every corner. These guys are doing something incredibly unique, from the presentation to the flavors to the whole atmosphere. You can tell there’s real thought and effort behind what they’re creating.

I’ve tried plenty of Mexican restaurants, and Lujo’s is easily some of the best Mexican food I’ve ever had. Everything tasted fresh, the portions were great, and the food actually felt memorable.

People are always going to hate when somebody steps outside the box and starts getting attention for it. I’d rather support a restaurant willing to take risks and do its own thing. Easily five stars for me.“

“Delicious! Delicious! Delicious! Great for any occasion.“

“My second time here and it was just as good as the first time! Lots of flavor in the chicken!!! Definitely worth it. And the girl that helped us is super friendly and attentive.“

“OMG! THIS WAS AMAZING! Best BBQ in AZ. The brisket was smokey, smooth and cooked perfectly! The pulled chicken was outstanding! Mac n Cheese... not one elbow macaroni left in the dish! The homemade sauces are perfect (try the Arizona Gold for something different). Anyone who rates this places below a 5/5 is just wrong...“

“The ice cream was delicious! Can’t wait to go back and try their burrito“

“We stopped by The Taco Spot for the first time on Cinco de Mayo and, not surprisingly, the place was packed—but absolutely worth it. We ordered the surf and turf loaded fries along with a couple of street tacos, and everything was incredible. The flavors were spot-on, and both the green and red hot sauces were some of the best I’ve ever had.

What really made the experience stand out, though, was the hospitality. Immanuel, one of the owners, took the time to chat with us after closing. He and his wife clearly care deeply about their business and their customers, and it shows in every detail.

Great food, reasonable prices, and genuinely good people behind it all. Liz was really kind and friendly. If their new location in Maricopa is anything like this one, it’s going to be a huge success. Highly recommend!“

“fresh food everyday, polite on point service“

“Amazing experience. Went first time last night. Excellent food and drinks, large portions, very friendly staff, very affordable.“

“We did a walk in to go order yesterday. The parking lot was PACKED...we thought for sure it would be a long wait for take out. We were told 15-20 minutes. The food was out in less than that! Wow...friendly guy, (sorry can't remember your name) took our order. The lady at the hostess stand even asked if we were taken care of. The place was busy, but they took the time to make sure we were taken care of! I will for sure go back. The food was GREAT! :)“

“The food was really good. The chili relleno was the best I have had in the Valley. It is a small place where you have to get your own utensils, napkins and salt from the kiosk, and drink from a soda dispenser, but the food is worth stopping here.“

“I was greeted immediately with a couple of dudes who looked happy to help. They were quick, efficient, and very kind. They asked about my loyalty login, talked to me about my birthday, and made this a special little visit. Great staff, location, and quality. 👌“

“Love the spicy New Mexico cuisine. Just wish we didn't live 2 hours away.
The green was delicious.... but the red was better IMHO. I got a little forehead and some sniffles from both.
Can't wait to go back !!!@@“

“That burrito was worth every penny. My wife and I will be back soon!“

“Truly one of our favorite restaurants, every dish we’ve tried has been exceptional, and the service is consistently amazing!!“

“I am from Mass and was in the area for a birthday celebration. I ordered a platter of food with all the fixings. The food and array of guacamole and salsas were amazing! Mass has nothing on those chimi’s! Thank you!!!“

“love az burrito 🌯 & pozole is off the hook ! service always good too. keep up the good work Lulu's 👏 ✌️“

“Since 2009, I have loved this place. I can only eat there chicken, no one else's idk why or what they do to it.. they hooked me up with the chicken chimmy to help me go into labor with the hottest salsa. Baby Vivianna was born 27 hours later lol yes they gave me a plate for the hospital lol my son ( rip) Omar had his first job here. He didn't last long, but he loved it. The food is always amazing and fresh. The workers are amazing and so sweet.“

“A couple weekends ago my husband and I had a late night out, we woke up not wanting to cook breakfast but craving a good burrito. We went to this Los Favs and I have been thinking/dreaming about that damn burrito now for two whole weeks so I decided a review was needed...it was soooo good! I got the machaca burrito con papa and my husband got Chile verde con frijol. I don't know if his burrito has been living rent free in his head like mine has but this will be my go-to breakfast burrito place from now on! Oh and those carrots and jalapeños, dayum those were good too, I'm drooling now. Thanks Los Favs!!“

“Great place, the Nachos were fantastic, the manager was so awesome, Our bartender was great, he made me the Salt Old Fashion, a Mexican take on an Old Fashion that was spectacular, try it!!!“

“Mmmm yummy always delish! The remodel looks great!“

“Best carne asada burrito. I have tried searching for the best one, and I think this one hits the mark every time . The meat is seasoned perfectly, and the quality of meat is what sets it apart. I hate chewing fat in burritos and huge pieces of meat. I love the fact that they chop the meat up into small pieces because every bite has a perfect bite of meat. I add cheese to it, and I moved to South Chandler, and I crave this burrito. I will drive 25 minutes to get it because it’s so consistent, and I know what I’m going to get every time— never a disappointment. Hidden gem!“

“Was driving by and decided to give midnight taco a shot. Did not disappoint, their food is delicious and I rarely ever give reviews. Thank you midnight taco, we will be regular customers here! See you soon!“

“Friends and I went for my birthday. Waiter was very personable and accommodating. The food and service were excellent. The staff made it special for us.“

“everything is so fresh and tasty. I have also never been to a restaurant that served steaming hot tortilla chips. I highly recommend this restaurant“

“Friendly staff and the best food. What more could you ask for!“

“1st time there and the food was great“

“Really wanted to love this place, but first impression wasn't great. Ordered food to go for the whole family and my wife and daughter ordered chicken protein bowls. Got the food home, and not a single piece of chicken in either bowl. Food was decent though...beans seemed a bit salty.“

“First time here. Server was friendly and treated us well. Food was good and salsa was top notch.“

“I can't rate the atmosphere, because I ordered on door dash. The Sunday family special is amazing. It is a great value. The tacos were amazing, and the chips and queso dip were fabulous. Love this place!“

“Muy bien. Me mucho gusto!!“

“Enjoyed the Shredded Brisket tacos!“

“Fabulous new addition to Gilbert!“

“We frequently eat at all three locations. The food is top notch with HUGE generous portions. Our favorites are the shrimp tacos, stuffed quesadilla and flying saucers. Their horchata is the best in town! Great atmosphere, wonderful customer service, excellent food!“

“I come here every 2 weeks, the guy at the counter every time I’ve been has been the nicest human I may have ever encountered. He always has a smile on his face and seems genuinely happy. Crazy! Whatever he’s making it’s not enough. I appreciate you bro if you ever see this.“

“Was driving by and decided to give midnight taco a shot. Did not disappoint, their food is delicious and I rarely ever give reviews. Thank you midnight taco, we will be regular customers here! See you soon!“

“Very good breakfast burrito. On my list as regular stop. I would suggest the faux plants & trees be taken outside , wash the dust off. Freshen up the interior“

“My favorite whenever I go to any of their other restaurants is shredded beef tacos and shrimp cocktail. They make the shrimp cocktail fresh so it does take a little bit to make.

Loaded with shrimp and avocado. The flavor of the tomato broth is so good.
They do put in hot sauce when they make it. It tastes a little hotter than I like so I asked them to not put any in. Then I will add some of their green verde sauce.

If you go here you have got to try the shrimp cocktail yum. They will give you a bunch of Ritz crackers and you can dip or load up the cracker.“

“This place use to have the best burritos. Now they are smaller and taste more like ready made burritos you get from the gas station and loaded with salt. They consistently get orders wrong and give you salsa cups that are empty after 2 bites. Another case of a small business gone bad..“

“Had lunch there yesterday and the food was terrible. The chips where old and when I went to order three items I had to pick the same items three times. My choice was a Taco, Enchilada and a Torstada. The food , I would rate it at a 1 out of a 10. I will never go back there . Very disappointed.“

“The food is great and the service is on point. Staff are engaging and efficient. First timers and we are coming back.“

“Great food and fast service!“

“Went a while ago with my mom, waiter was very attentive and polite, service was fast since it was not too busy. Food was delicious, the bean dip is my favorite part every time.

It was a bit pricey, but I have been a lot and its very tasty.“

“We walked in and were greeted right away. The manager was very kind, welcoming, and took the time to talk with us, which made the experience even better. Our food came out quickly, everything tasted fresh, and the restaurant was clean. Overall, it was a great experience, and we’ll definitely be back.“

“MY FAVORITE Filibertos. I have one right next to my house but this one is my favorite and I will drive 15 min to go to it. I grew up eating this before my first job!!! Fresh and hot chips always available for free. Tripa and lengua burritos that other locations don't have.“

“stopped here on a whim. Very impressive food. Had tacos with chicken and al pastor and a quesadilla with al pastor. The pastor here is delicious. I would go here every week if it wasn't so far from my house. Highly recommend to those who like real tacos.“

“Love their chicken tacos too (which is big news, as I almost NEVER order chicken tacos), but their Shrimp tacos are unbelievably good. I am fussy about shrimp tacos, but these are the bomb, not kidding. If they had shrimp every day I'd probably eat here 4-5 times a week. What a pleasant surprise!“
