50 Best Mexican Restaurants in Vancouver

“I've been to all the Mexican places in Vancouver and seriously, none of them are as good as this one. Everything is super delicious, all the girls on the staff are super friendly and they also have great prices. I always recommend this site. 10/10. Very good. Everything tastes what it should taste like, just like going out to eat in CDMX. Talavera forever.“

“The food was delicious and the ambiance of the room were great. Main courses were decently sized and full of favor. Enjoyed the pork belly with mole verde the most. Enchiladas were delicious and were delivered flat and layered instead of rolled. The service was mostly great and attentive. We had to asked for a plate change because the appetizer left it quite messy and we were sharing everything. Overall, everyone was friendly and we left satisfied and full. They did have some great dessert options and will be sure to try them next time.“

“They say it’s usually the hole in the wall places that have the most authentic, delicious food and this proves to be true for this restaurant! The food is absolutely delicious, full of flavour, and tasty from the very first bite to the very last; it is quality Mexican food that is often only found in the country where it’s from. From the few interactions we’ve had with the owner, Carlos, we have come to find that he is a genuine person who loves to cook and entertain every customer that walks in the door. You can see him whip up all the food right there and it’s very fast!

We highly suggest making this a stop on your list when visiting the Kits area!

Kid-friendliness: There are a lot of options for those with kids! You can get chicken tacos, plain quesadillas, etc. which offers something for everyone’s appetite and interest!“

“The food today, was absolutely wonderful, healthy Mexican was greatly delivered and to her telling me she is a dietition, oh no kidding healthy, food was delicious in everyway, fresh, flavourful, colorful and made some great recommendation, the Pork Pastor, and two Chicken tacos, absolutely wonderful, delicious, it will be one of the Vancouver foodstops. A good ending to a beautiful day before the rain.“

“The dishes here are delicious, all the flavors are a taste of home. Congratulations to the chef and all the team. It would be great if you start using cotija cheese again for the enfrijoladas and enchiladas instead of the shredded cheese. It gives a better and more traditional taste. ?“

“When the owner meets you everytime the home town folks visit. Priceless. Thanks Caz“

“Deliciosos tamales y muy servicio.. Lo super encomiendo“

“We are two Mexicans and we had our doubts when we wanted to go to eat at Carnitas El Rolys; However, when we tried the real food it tasted like the carnitas that we miss so much from Mexico. They are the best carnitas in Vancouver. Furthermore, the service was excellent, as they were about to close we contacted them and they prepared our food with great pleasure even before we arrived. If you are a Mexican who misses their food, you won't regret coming here :).“

“OMG who knew there was such a great authentic Oaxacan Mexican restaurant in Kits?!?!?!?! I must have driven by the old Jerry's Cove pub location hundreds of times without ever noticing it had been converted into a real authentic Mexican restaurant (not TexMex) over a year ago. Food was absolutely amazing with flavours and spices i've never tasted before. From the mole to molcajete (stone bowl) dishes everything was incredibly flavourful. NO JOKE this place is the real deal.“

“Big portions, Tasty .. A little pricey but what the hell !“

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

“By Far the best mexi food In Vancouver.“

“Happy to find a burrito place by my work, the burritos are a great size for the price and yummy, very nice owner.Update: Photo of my usual burritoChicken burrito on sundried tomato wrap with beans, rice, #3 hot sauce, banana peppers, jalapenos, cheese, cabbage, onion, lettuce and cilantro. It's so tasty“

“Los tacos de asada son deliciosos!“

“Although I'm not typically drawn to Mexican cuisine, I discovered a restaurant that piqued my interest in unexpected ways. The vibrant atmosphere and colorful decor set the stage for an exciting experience. While the main dishes didn't quite resonate with my taste preferences, the cocktails were a delightful surprise. Each drink was expertly crafte and left me wanting more.“

“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.“

“amazing tasty authentic food“

“The flavours were amazing absolutely delicious food! My boyfriend and I stopped in for dinner and we are so glad we did. The staff is also super nice and welcoming. Definitely coming back!“

“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.“

“Las Tortas might be a bit more pricy than a subway or other sandwich shop, but there is a big diference when you get fresh made grilled ingredients, some imported from Mexico
If you like to enjoy a delicious sandwich that have even avocado (guacamole) in, with no extra cost.
Is important to compare to other places and see the diference in quality and service
Tip: when you order a combo you can get a good deal on side and drink .
How about a tortilla soup and horchata for only $3.95?“

“recently found out about this place and i been i love .

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

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

“Went in last night for dinner and drinks. The food is pretty consistent here but the service last night was horrible. It has to be the worst service I have ever had in a restaurant but at least the food was good. The staff here is amazing but the waitress we had was horrible. She was cold and impolite right from the get go. I will go back but if I get this waitress again I wont stay for dinner.“

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

“Great little Mexican resturant, food and atmosphere were authentic and super enjoyable!

Friend told me it was his favorite "burrito place" in Vancouver about 7 years ago and I finally got to go haha, was worth the wait honestly!
Good price too.

Will be going back again!“

“The place was very clean and pleasant, the food was very delicious, I ate a drowned cake (obviously the bread is not the same and they were missing the golden tacos that they offer in Jalisco as an accompaniment but it is delicious, what we didn't like very much is that You have to order and pay first, but in general everything is very good“

“Big portions for three tacos. I got three cactus tacos for 6$ and they were stuffed. A great inexpensive vegan option! Also... The hot sauce is ACTUALLY spicy so proceed with caution.

Vegetarian options: Cactus tacos (vegan)“

“Amazing food and presentation! We had Del Comal a su Mesa cater my daughter’s quinceanera, and the food was delicious, plentiful, and cost effective! Nancy and her team served the food, and the catering even comes with lemonade — it was perfect for the size of our party. They are very professional and organized, I highly recommend!“

“First time here, and came during Peruvian night. They had a special menu for Peruvian food. The ceviche is a little different than the ones I've had in Mexico. Fish pieces were cut bigger, which I enjoyed more. Service was excellent, even though it was a full house. Great to watch all the good dancers strut their stuff. Would definitely come back.“

“The Lemongrass Chicken Burrito (previously the Grilled Chicken Burrito?) has been my go-to take out for a few years now. It’s been consistently good, perfect almost every time.

The one I had today? 15/10!! It was amazing, it was incredible. “Complements to the Chef” good that I am leaving a review after 50+ burritos.

Thank you, please never change.“

“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.“

“Amaazing food & drinks! My new go-to spot :)“

“I tried the lemongrass chicken and the pacific cod tacos so far. Both were amazing. The size of the tacos are huge one taco with a small side dish is a perfect meal for me.

Also reheating the taco I couldn’t eat in my air fryer the next day worked great and the taste was still top notch.

Great price, amazing taste, so I will 100% be going back again and again.“

“"we have been meaning to visit this place, but for some reason we always hesitated or decided to go somewhere else, today we just thought "well we have to try it sooner or later" we went for the vegetarian burrito, and we were shocked on how good it is, definitely we will come back, good burrito!!"

Vegetarian options: Vegetarian burrito“

“Los tacos de asada son deliciosos!“

“The best tacos so far in Van.“

“Great drinks and employees!“

“It's a taco time in a food court. It's not the best place in town for a taco, that's absurd. It's also not a one star restaurant, that's also absurd. It's a place to get cheap fast food style burritos. People need to relax.“

“My husband and I shared the California Burrito! It was sooo delicious!!! The cheese on the outside was heavenly!!!“

“I can say that it is one of the most welcoming places in Vancouver, the service is excellent and everyone is very friendly, the food is delicious, homemade and made with a lot of love, the place is small but it is beautiful. Thank you very much and believe me I will come back to try the other dishes. ? God bless this business. ?“

“The Burrow is one of my favourite restaurants in Vancouver. Not just because their food is delicious and service is so kind and quick, but they never disappoint. I have eaten here numerous times and it’s always been 10/10. I usually eat here and get takeout for dinner, so this is my first time trying their brunch. I was blown away again by the flavours present in the dish. I had the Hick’s Benny and it was delightful. Key tip: get both the ranchero and salsa verde (one for each benny) for optimal flavour. I love how cornbread is used for the base of the bennys, it adds a bit of sweetness to this savoury dish and makes it a sweet&savoury delight. The Hick’s Benny is a well-rounded dish and I highly recommend it! Thanks again for a wonderful dining experience! See you soon :)“
