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.“

“Delicious food and a great atmosphere, especially if you visit on Friday when there’s live mariachi. I’ve been in to many Mexican restaurants, and this one comes really close to being authentic. The service was really good even in rush hours. I strongly recommend this place.“

“Great authentic Mexican cuisine and service.“

“the food and the vibe were undeniably amazing. best tacos on the west coast!“

“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 went to Quesada Burritos & Tacos yesterday, and it was awesome! The burritos were fresh, full of flavor, and packed with generous portions. The best part? You can customize everything exactly how you want. The service was great too—huge thanks to Vruddhi for being so kind and making the experience even better. Definitely recommend checking it out!“

“Cheap and cheerful. Service is wonderful. Friendly, fast! Hot fresh ingredients. Well done Chipotle 👏“

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

“I came here on a Sunday evening. I was very satisfied with my service. The food was outstanding not to mention the DJ was amazing, the music he was playing had me on the dance floor at times by myself. I can’t wait to visit again. I love that there are vegetarian options. The service were outstanding and the prices were phenomenal. I unexpectedly went during happy hour. .“

“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.“

“We had an absolutely great time here!! At first we didn’t know it was a mexican spot, and it was the best surprise! The food was delicious, the staff was very friendly and accommodating & it was decorated very nicely. Overall would definitely recommend, we’ll be back!“

“Repeating customer here👍👍👍 ive been ordering from this shop 10x and food has been always fantastic and owner/staff is super friendly! Friends were shocked when they saw this huge torta, decent torta is really a rare find in Vancouver it’s crunchy and soft inside, and dipped with aquachile? 🙏 I could eat 10 tortas“

“Delicious authentic Mexican food“

“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 💯“

“The food at Ophelia was really good and nicely presented. The highlight was the shrimp tostada, very tasty but a little difficult to eat because of the size. The enchiladas were delicious and generous, we felt very full after eating them. The beef tacos with bone marrow were good, but quite heavy and we couldn’t eat more than one since we were already full. Drinks were creative but overly sweet and a bit cloying. The service was just okay.“

“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.“

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

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

“Last visit:
I ordered this dish from the special menu, apparently a popular item. However I found the chicken stinky and old, even with the flavorful sauce I couldn’t finish the meal and left it half way.
Apparently the staff don’t have any authority or control over customer satisfaction or compensation offers, so they just said nothing is wrong with the food and expressed they are sorry. Not sure if I will try their food again.

First visit:
Lovely staff, nice and clean place, tasty dessert.
Will come back!“

“We can tell the food is made with so much love and care! Taste delicious- like homemade food 😋 and the hot sauce was delicious (homemade!!) and portion was generous!

We got the bowl with lamb & beef. The meat was well marinated, tasty, and love all the toppings. The tortilla was also fried so it gives a very nice texture to the entire dish!

Another order was the burrito with spinach tortilla and BBQ chicken. Again, well marinated chicken!

As for the hot sauce, we got the level 2, 3 and 4. I would say level 3 is pretty spicy already, but personally LOVE the level 4 - it’s a little bit sweet, so balances really well with the picked jalapeño throughout the dish.

Owner was super friendly and informative. He explained to us all the dishes. And he was also very attentive when we mentioned it was to go - with extra napkins, spoons and forks, etc.

Overall, we’ll be coming back!“

“amazing tasty authentic food“

“By Far the best mexi food In Vancouver.“

“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! 😊“

“Such a great addition to the neighborhood! Authentic Mexican food and really well priced. Vibe is relaxed and the service is amazing. So friendly and welcoming. Truly service with a simile. Cant wait to try everything on the menu and go back again and again.

Their Mole is 10/10 btw :)“

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

“first time ever I tried quesada with my sister and You know wt we had the bestest experience. The girl, Mehak working over there helped me chosing the best burrito bowl ever! she assisted me and my sis with patience which normally lacks when I go to other food chains. I really really appreciate her efforts and at last i would love to come back here again and highly recommed this location for good customer service.“

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

“The food and service is decent, but there is one female server, short with dark skin, possibly mixed filipino asian, that seems sort of standoffish, talking with an annoyed tone. I didn't even do anything wrong. She acted like that the whole time. However, the server Zoe was very nice and attentive.“

“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.“

“The food is delicious and the place is beautiful, service needs to be improved though.“

“I've been in Vancouver for a couple of days and most Mexican restaurants don't have the same seasoning and don't taste good, but at La Reyna especially the tacos taste delicious and are very similar to those in Mexico, definitely my new favorite restaurant.

“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 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??😋“

“Great place on a Tuesday evening to go especially if you are a beginner to Salsa and like to learn a bit and dance with others too. During dance time you may be forgotten a bit by staff but you can always go to the bar and bartender n servers there will attend you.“

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

“I was going to be in this area and searched for restaurants and this one popped up. So glad it did! I gave mezcal a try for the 2nd time ever and it was good!
Had some good food, good drink and the bartenders were personable.
Servers and bartenders were bringing out bottles for guest to look at and read while they enjoyed the drink.
Food came out quick.
Salsa was all delicious.

Thanks for a good experience while in Van.

Vegetarian options: A few veggie and vegan options

Parking: Be careful to not park in yellow painted curb areas, or in areas that require a residential permit.

Kid-friendliness: Not particularly. It is a mezcal bar.

Wheelchair accessibility: Isle to the bathroom in the back is narrow which I imagine would pose difficult. The front door does not have a press to open.“

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

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

“El Camino's on Main Street in Vancouver is a popular spot for Latin American street food and drinks, known for its lively atmosphere and flavorful dishes.

I loved the Beef Asada tacos. It had red onions, serrano lime marinade, cucumber pico, avocado sauce, chicharone crumble.
The menu has a variety of gluten free items as well and is delicious!

I would love to come back again and try out their brunch menu.“

“Great authentic food and wonderful margaritas“

“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.“

“Love the decor and it’s amazing food“

“I’ve been hesitant to review this place for a while, sometimes I love it other times it’s feels like a rip off. Food is decent quality, perhaps a little bland (chicken especially) but I appreciate that it isn’t loaded up with fats and salt.

I stopped ordering the burritos after getting a small burrito, the price it just too high to gamble with leaving less than full.

Inconsistent portions continues to be a problem with the tamale plates, but at least they are reasonably priced. I’ve only had one staffer that serves a fair portion, while another has been consistently small. After witnessing him scoop two scoops of rice then “accidentally” dump some back, I walked out.

I don’t know how many nickels he’s saving, but if they are going to serve meager portions, I’d appreciate the option of a super size.“

“Very delicious food and very friendly progressive staff. The restaurant had a very welcoming and friendly vibe.

Large and very filling portions, we had gotten an appetizer as well as a main dish each and the appetizer alone filled us up. We also got a classic lime margarita to share and it was perfectly balanced, one of the best margaritas I've had as of late especially considering the fair prices.

All together with a cocktail, an appetizer, and 2 mains the bill only came out to about $70.“

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

“I’ve gone there several time’s since the opened. The service is fast and friendly. And I’ve tried the 3 Taco 🌮 meals Chicken and Beef and found both really nice. If you want a change in fast food then this is a nice place to visit“

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