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.“

“Great authentic Mexican cuisine and service.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Me encanta es delicioso!! Soy Colombiana y no había probado algo tan Rico súper súper recomendado 💖“

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

“Muy deli las entradas: Chicharrón de ribeye perfecto con ese guacamole recién hecho y frijoles refritos de fondo. El aguachile blanco muy fresco y rico, bien sazonado. La comida también muy buena: Molcajetes de arrachera y camarón. Salsa picor medio, el queso muy delicioso. La carne algo dura, el cilantro y cebolla deberían estar presentados aparte y unas cebollitas asadas faltaron, o nopales... Sería bueno que para el pollo en mole pongan más mole (un recipiente aparte donde podamos poner más al plato). El tres leches fue decepcionante, por muuuucho un 2/10 cumple la función de postre peor en textura, humedad (prácticamente inexistente), sabor, inclusive combinación de sabores.... Quedó debiendo muchísimo.“

“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!“

“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.“

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

“Todo delicioso, muy recomendable“

“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.“

“Delicious authentic Mexican 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!“

“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 💯“

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

“Los tacos de asada son deliciosos!“

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

“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! 😊“

“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!“

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

“amazing tasty authentic food“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“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.

“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.“

“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??😋“

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

“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.“

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

“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.“

“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! 🌮✨“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Great authentic food and wonderful margaritas“

“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!!“
