50 Best Mexican Restaurants near North Vancouver

“Wow! That was awesome food and service! Thank you for hosting our traditional POSADA EXATEC VANCOUVER - Amigos y Familia. We truly enjoyed the night, the service was exceptional. Loved the cochinita and rajas tacos. The ponche was delicious and all the Mexican traditional water, my daughter loved the horchata.“

“I was hesitant to eat Mexican food in Vancouver, since I live in Arizona! And I needed a break! I have to admit the food was great and better than what I get in AZ. We got tacos.
The place was rather cold and didn’t help to take refuge from cold there. I asked for hot water, which wasn’t hot enough. Otherwise loved the food!“

“Great authentic Mexican cuisine and service.“

“Food for one $50ish including tip.

Postive: Fantastic food. Fantastic beers that pairs well. Nice, clean, spacious decor. Outdoor seating available. Try everything..

Neg: sometime its gets so busy that they forget to make what you ordered (twice in one night). Waited 2 hours for one time.

But it was nice of them to give you free drinks for their mistake.

Food for thought: really good hispanic food, and gets busy quickly.“

“Tacos Dorados de papa It was just like being back home!“

“I ordered burritos for my wife and me, and they were absolutely delicious! It was our first time trying them, and we were really impressed. We’ll definitely be coming back again — they were so good I’m even planning to post a picture!“

“oh, my new favorite place while in Vancouver. LOVE everything about this place!“

“This place is amazing!! From the cheap tacos to the good music & drinks. But the highlight has to be the service 🙌🏻 Alexis made us feel at home and helped us choose what was best for us! Bonus points: he has a great style (kudos to the silver hair)
Ps. You NEED to try the churro donut! (Thank me later 😉)“

“I love coming to Talavera for lunch! The food is soooo good and their desserts are my favourite. I love the traditional Mexican pastries. It’s a really cute family owned and operated business and I’d love to see more of these kind of places in Vancouver. I have recommended this place to all my friends💫❤️“

“It’s good! Real authentic street tacos & more! Get the Hibiscus Water!“

“¡Delicioso! Los jueves de super tostadas, totalmente recomendable 👌 La comida rica, los cócteles buenísimos.“

“Delicious authentic Mexican food“

“They are definitely busy on the weekends, but I understand why! Lots of people want to eat here and it’s due to the workers, atmosphere and most importantly food. I also really appreciate Maria & Catalina for accommodating me during my visit. I’m allergic to nuts and my meal came with it (i had no idea and usually i specify before i eat, but i forgot this particular day) and they re-made my food for me without hesitation and it came out pretty fast even thought I ordered the ribeye hash. Definitely stop by if you’re in the area!“

“Simplemente deliciosos!!! Y el chocolate tan rico como el de mi abuelita!!! 😋“

“Such amazing food and great staff made our visits amazing. An absolute go-to every time we are downtown. ♥️🤍“

“Our go to when we visit the city! Delicious food!“

“Just had the chicken burrito made by Karan, and it was absolutely delicious! The flavors were perfectly balanced — tender, well-seasoned chicken, fresh ingredients, and just the right amount of spice. You can really tell it was made with care. Everything was wrapped up perfectly, and it held together without being soggy or dry. Easily one of the best burritos I’ve had in a while. Great job, Karan.“

“Todo delicioso, muy recomendable“

“amazing tasty authentic food“

“We had a reservation for four to celebrate a birthday, and about 30 minutes before our scheduled time the restaurant called to say they were fully booked and asked us to disregard our reservation. This was understandably frustrating, especially given the occasion. After expressing our concern, they checked with the manager and called back to apologize, explaining it was an internal issue and ultimately honored our reservation, which we appreciated.

While I had mentioned in advance that we were celebrating a birthday, it wasn’t acknowledged by the staff during our visit. It’s a small detail, but those little touches can really make a difference for special occasions.

That said, once we were seated, the overall experience was good. The drinks were great, the atmosphere was enjoyable, and the value was excellent. With better communication and a bit more attention to special moments, this could easily be a standout spot.“

“I was very impressed and satisfied !!The service & the food was amazing. Raul made me feel right at home.“

“Los tacos de asada son deliciosos!“

“Was there last night and enjoyed some wonderful food and drinks. This place is and will be a winner in our community.“

“We ordered take away and the meal was delish! I have a very severe allergy and the staff were 100% in taking care of my order. Thanks for the yummy, and safe meal! 😊“

“Great addition to the Granville strip. We enjoyed our time here. Recommend the Molcajete Mexicano and the Del Trompo a tu Trompa. Desserts including the churro were all fabulous. Portions were pretty decent and we were full and still had a big take away box. The server was such a sweetheart and really attentive. Will definitely be back and bring friends once covid is over.“

“I've been here in Vancouver for 10 months, and since I arrived from Mexico I've missed "carnitas" and I finally found the best ones, here at arturos 2 go fraserview, they taste like Mexico.“

“I think is one if the best places in vancouver to order carnitas, we ordered 500 gr of mixed carnitas and it came with a good amoumt of corn tortillas, green salsa, lime and pico de gallo, everything was pretty tasty, is not my first time ordering here, the flavour and service is great and pretty solid.“

“🌮🌮🌮🌮 Great tacos before flying back to Montreal 🌮🌮🌮🌮“

“This Mexican fast-food spot is a total gem! Their tacos are absolute standouts—fresh, flavorful, and packed with authentic goodness.

The service here is equally impressive—staff are super friendly, quick to help, and genuinely seem happy to make your experience great. They’re happy to answer questions about the menu and even offer recommendations, which adds a nice personal touch.

Their house-made Mexican beverages are a must-try. From the refreshing horchata with its subtle cinnamon sweetness to the tangy, fruity agua fresca, every sip tastes like it’s straight from a local spot in Mexico—no artificial stuff, just pure, authentic flavor.

All in all, it’s a fantastic spot for a quick, delicious meal that doesn’t skimp on quality or authenticity. Highly recommend!“

“Was a great experience. We’ve gone there a few times…always good. I’ve had some normal restaurant mix ups with food. But they were attentive, apologetic and fix them. It happens. But would still recommend 💯“

“Excellent food and drink! Excellent atmosphere! Excellent service! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Best in Mexican cuisine.“

“So tasty and delicious!! Authentic Mexican flavors!“

“You guys never fail to satisfy. I love your food. My only issue is that you’re so tight fisted with the green sauce. 😁“

“No photos because we devoured the food too fast but wow what a find! Great prices, delicious food, and the gentleman working the restaurant at the time was so friendly. We had the Wilbur Bowl and a bundle of 6 tacos - everything was delicious! Great for dinner or a late night snack. Will definitely be back 🌮🌮“

“Authentic Mexican flavor. Their green chilaquiles are delicious, and the service is very friendly!“

“The service was excellent, Lucy was very attentive from start to finish. The food was good; I would just recommend using a baguette for the torta ahogada so it’s more like a virote, and serving it in a deep plate. Everything else was excellent. We’ll definitely be back.“

“I have been going here for years. The food is excellent, authentic and the staff are amazing! I suspect with their going viral recently has led to some reviews which are not real but an attempt by mediocre establishments to have their clients return??😋“

“The tortilla soup was absolutely delicious, with melted cheese and a rich touch of spice that gave it the perfect balance of flavor. It was comforting, flavorful, and very well prepared. Our server, Sebastián, was very kind and attentive, which made the experience even better.“

“amazing food. I'm from san Diego so I wasn't expecting 100% authentic Mexican food and I was NOT disappointed. the best way to describe my " bean and cheese burrito " is maybe "van-mex" 😀 not the same as here, but definitely just as good!!!(if not even better in some ways) I had barbacoa the second time I visited and it was just right. there's a very good reason the line was out the door. visit with an open mind and I can assure you that you wont be disappointed.“

“Excellent food and service. We will definitely go back when we visit Vancouver again.“

“Great authentic food and wonderful margaritas“

“Carnitas Benny 8.5/10 - potatoes were so crispy and paired perfectly with ketchup - wish there was more! the carnitas benny was flavorful and i liked how the flavours paired together on the cornbread

would highly recommend if you’re in the main st area!! service was lovely!“

“I've been here in Vancouver for 10 months, and since I arrived from Mexico I've missed "carnitas" and I finally found the best ones, here at arturos 2 go fraserview, they taste like Mexico.“

“Los mejores tamales y pozole! En verdad tienen que probar, delicioso todo! Best pozole and tamales. You have to try them! Yummy 💯“

“Great experience at Red Burrito. The tacos were really good, fresh, and full of flavor, but what stood out just as much was the customer service. Zack was friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience easy and welcoming. You can tell she cares about both the food and the people she’s serving. Definitely a spot I’d come back to!!“

“I recently visited El Comal Mexican Foods and was pleasantly surprised by how good everything was. The food was fresh, flavourful, and served quickly. The tacos had the perfect balance of seasoning and texture—nothing soggy, nothing dry, just delicious.

The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the place had a relaxed, cozy vibe that made the experience even better. Prices were reasonable, portions were generous, and you can tell they put care into what they serve.

I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended for anyone craving great tacos done right! 🌮✨“

“If you truly want to experience something authentically Mexican, Cielito Lindo is the best choice, from the warm welcome you receive to the most delicious food from Guadalajara, along with amazing drinks inspired by Mexico City 🤤👌🏻 It’s truly a beautiful experience from start to finish! Place, service, and food: 100/100! 🇲🇽 Highly recommend it! ✨“

“nos encantan las tortillas chips "el comal" las regulares y ahora tambien las de chipotle. totalmente recomendadas“

“This place is great! Family owned restaurant and the staff are super polite and welcoming.
Food is 10/10 and for the price you can’t beat it.
Been here twice and will keep coming back.

Had the quesabirria and horchata as well as the carnitas plate. Great value for the portions you get.

Sabor is #1!!“
