50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Belmont

“Great tacos! The buche, carnitas, and cabeza were all really good (and large/meaty). Each one had a different delightful texture but cabeza was my favorite.... so tender! Fresh salsa bar and free chips are a huge plus. Also the free deep fried jalapenos was a nice touch. Next time I've gotta tried that awesome looking giant fried fish plate.“

“Food is fantastic! I usually order a super burrito and it has never disappointed. Meat is cooked to perfection, rice and beans are always delicious, their salsa is very spicy and very good! I'll definitely change it up next time I go, but they have been very consistent every time I go.

Service is okay, not the best, as some of the seem shy or embarrassed to talk. But not rude by any means. They at least offer chips, water, etc.

I love the location and parking is very easy. The lights and windows make it look nice at night!“

“Needed to feed my plumbing repair crew nearby, so stopped at Coyote and got several burritos and large sweet orchatas.
The carne asada was really good, and so too was the pollo asado - the super size burritos were substantial and the crew was stuffed - no seconds needed.
The chips were fresh.
The Coyote crew put the to-go order together very quickly, and we're friendly and courteous.
Good place for good food.“

“I always come here on Mondays when I work in San Carlos. One of the best burritos and quesadillas I ever tried so far. The portions are huge, barely can finish it. Very delisious and juicy burritos, specially shrimp one. Nice service, the lady very friendly, and always smiles. Defenetly reccomend👌🏼“

“Amazing food and excellent service - highly recommend“

“Delicious food, super friendly service. A little slower than a typical restaurant, but that’s because everything is made to order and not sitting around in a pan waiting to be served. The food was amazing, and so pretty!“

“I love Cuco’s!! All women staff. They do everything right.“

“My son and I YELPED for Mexican food.Good Mexican Food, and decided to give this place a try. I had the Spicy Shrimp Plate, and my son had the Steak and Spicy Prawns. They also provide Tortilla Chips and a Salsa Bar. The guy who cooked our food, knows how to cook! My shrimp was absolutely a balance of green/red peppers, onions, in a slightly sweet, savory and mildly spicy sauce. The Rice was done just right(not dried out).The Black Beans, were tender, with just the right amount of salt. The Iceberg lettuce and sliced radish was cold, fresh and crispy— Served with a dollop of sour cream, avocado sauce; a slice of tomato and sprinkle of Mexican cheese top the salad - it did a nice job to balance the heat of the main course. Everything was well executed. The overall indoor atmosphere is very clean, simple and no frills. Love their neon menu signage. And, their prices are reasonable. Thank you for the delicious meal. We will be back.“

“If you land in SFO and you want some amazing authentic Mexican food within range THIS IS THE SPOT!

“The food is delicious. The sauces really stand out here at Palo Alto Sol. See my review at EssentialPaloAltoRestaurants.com“

“This is by far thee best spot for the most delicious and authentic Mexican food around hands down the best in the business the staff and super nice and their prices are great! The tostadas de ceviche, chile relleno burrito and birria ramen are just some of the crowd favorites too much to list I highly recommend them give them a try it’s a must!!!!“

“Love this place so much! Some of the best tacos I've had in quite a while. I got 3 tacos. 2 al pastor and 1 asada. The meat is fresh and the right amount of flavor and the salsa on the tacos are perfect. What's nice is they also have a salsa bar where you can get a bag of ships and different salsas. Definitely going back again“

“Me encanto les pedí un pastelito para mi niño y ellos le cantaron las mañanitas .no lo esperaba me gustó mucho!!!“

“Do you love going to Flavortown? How about dreaming with your eyes open? Then try these birria tacos. The first time I had it was from leftovers that my daughter brought home for lunch. Then I drove from Oakley to San Mateo to have them fresh. It was AMAZING! They provide extra stuff to add to the tacos, but it honestly didn’t need them. The meat was so tender & flavorful that I had to close my eyes so I could fully appreciate the taste. Then I added the extras one by one & it tasted like a new taco each time. I know it seems like I’m exaggerating, but it’s really that good! My only wish is that they had seating nearby & a second location closer to Oakley.“

“Still the best kept secret in San Mateo. I’m moving tomorrow and this food is what I’m going to miss the most. The portions are generous, the price is affordable, the service can’t be beat. Cash only. Small parking lot. Family owned and operated. The carne asada is delicious! Actually I haven’t had a bad meal here. Take away is available. You won't be disappointed . Skip the la cumbre and pancho villa. Come get the best!“

“The restaurant has a really fun vibe, we enjoyed the tacos, drinks and chips and salsa. Service was exceptional. The creamy tomato spaghetti in the kids menu was a surprising option considering it’s a Mexican place but it was really comforting and we enjoyed it as well.

The only disappointing part was Flan which was hard and overcooked and the prices being on the higher side for what we got. But it’s a fun place and we’ll be back for the food we enjoyed!“

“recuérdame reservación taquería por chiquitas buenor por editor de facebook Rigoberto Muñoz ochoa“

“The Super Shrimp Burrito is the best thing on the menu, idk what the chef does back there but he’s amazing. I literally come here maybe once every 2-3 weeks just because it’s so good. best thing to do is get chips and put it in the burrito. Fire!!!“

“We were visiting friends and decided to eat here. Its a great little gem. The food was delicious, the prices were reasonable and the sever was great. The food didnt take long at all. The place was clean and not too loud.
I noticed quite a bit of locals here which is always a good thing.
I dont know about parking as we took a Waymo here.
I had the enchiladas with green sauce with an extra taco. My wife had the really big burrito. I was able to eat all mine, which was the perfect amount and my wife had to take half the burrito home.
Overall well worth a visit of you like no fuss great food.“

“Best Chile Verde I have had in years! Excellent food, friendly staff, and pleasant setting.“

“Excelente atención los tacos 🌮 de pastor y zuadero riquísimo el agua de horchata riquísima 100%recomendado“

“I only submit reviews in situations where the experience was outside the norm in some way. In this case, the Nachos that I just scarred down might be the best I've ever eaten in my 40 years of life. I wish I took a picture before I started eating them because the chips were stacked really neatly with the toppings on top. It was actually very esthetically pleasing, which I assume probably took some effort. Well, it didn't go unnoticed. Absolutely delicious!!“

“buenísimo 👍lo recomiendo 💯💯💯“

“I've had many dinners her with a group that can fluctuate between a couple folks to 8+ and we always enjoy the meal. The food quality is always solid. And though one doesn't normally expect anything special from counter order service, here the staff is always kind, attentive and generous with servings.

I'm a fan of the tostada bowl but the menu has got ample variety including limited but solid vegetarian options.“

“Not fancy just great Mexican food done right I go from San Jose just to eat here. The best and I mean best tripa and lengua tacos in the bay. Get extra green sauce and a little red to go. And carrots and lemon. Squeeze the lemon. Hit the salsa and enjoy“

“It's one of the best Mexican food restaurants in the area. They offer many home style cooked meals, but I usually go on the weekends to eat their beef barbacoa. They serve it in tacos or as a stew in a bowl to which you can add the salsa, onion, cilantro and lime. In addition they provide hand made tortillas which is the best way to have it. With great service and ambiance it no wonder people keep coming back for more.“

“Food delicious and authentic“

“Living just two blocks away, I made it a weekly ritual to dine here, and it remains my absolute favorite spot for street tacos. While I miss the salsa bar, a casualty of the pandemic, it was heartening to find the tacos tasting just as delicious as they did six years ago during my recent work trip. It's reassuring to see that this gem is still thriving.“

“Everything here is good but I have to say the Huevos Ranchero and the birria tacos are the best on planet earth. The handmade tortillas are absolutely delicious. The young lady who works at the front is so kind and has a warm welcoming personality. I live in Sunnyvale but I try and eat here any time I'm in the area.“

“Each meal I’ve had here has been consistently fresh and well-prepared. Did I mention delicious? The staff is friendly and attentive.“

“un sabor authentic Mexicano. tortillas hechas a mano. Todo muy sabroso.“

“The bistek asado. omg! soooo tender. we ordered it medium. it was perfect. We also ordered the pollo rostisado con mole. it was tender and tasty. Thank you for accommodating us with no reservations. make reservations. place gets packed quick.“

“los mejores tacos los recomiendo🤤“

“Great food menu & fast service“

“This food truck is worth a stop if you're wanting delicious tacos, tortas, and burritos. I have not been disappointed. They offer a variety of drinks including a strawberry horchata. I appreciate the fast and friendly service and delicious Mexican food. Atmosphere rating technically doesn't apply.
They generally park in a shaded area, so you can wait for your food in the shade.“

“I rarely leave food reviews, but this place deserves one. Fresh ingredients, tasted great, generous portions. Amazing value to boot. Handwritten thank you scribbled on the box, and easy ordering process.

If I could give this place 6 stars I would. Thanks for doing stuff the right way!“
