50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Bonsall

“Stopped by and got the carne asada fries
I love the portion meat wasn't burnt or over cooked and they re generous with the guac
My complain is that fires are tasteless and they re literally the cheapest thing you can buy on the market definitely a 7.5/10 no more on the good side you can see where they cook the food and it seems clean enough to me the dining room is clean as well the tables outside were clean even tho it was a rainy day and they have a waiting area for togo orders that can sit around 8 people also you can get free green/red salsa I ve seen some places charge for it overall 3.8 stars“

“We love Z. Z South with its Mexican food just down the street is excellent too. Great food service and prices. Prices are so reasonable we usually are glad to tip 30%. These people work hard and make us feel cared for.“

“Amazing!! I'm not a big fan of Mexican food, but this place is the best. Everything is made fresh. The beans are awesome. I had the Pastor Burrito, it was so good. The meat was so tasty. Drinks was delicious too!! Can't wait to go back!“

“Ate here for the first time last evening after driving past it many times up and down Oceanside Blvd. All I can say is "Incredible!!" We parked our car, walked into the grass carpeted area and felt like we were no longer on Oceanside Blvd. The area they have set up with tables, fame heaters and a large screen TV is great. It is immaculate, and actually cleaner than a lot of local restaurants I've been in. The young lady who helped us since it was our first time, was excellent. She was making sure the condiment area was supper clean, I could have eaten off of it, lol. She had a great smile and was very welcoming as she helped us with answering our questions about the menu. The food was excellent, and the portions were great. Pricing was excellent and we will definitely be back. Again, both the area and truck are immaculate and the cleanest I've ever seen. Thank you, Gaby's Tacos, for an excellent "truck" dining experience!! If you have not stopped but keep wondering about it, give it a chance and support a local business.“

“The nicest people with the best food!!“

“We started with their Cadillac margarita straight up with an extra shot of tequila on the side. The margarita and tequila was very smooth. I usually get Patron Silver but this time we tried Cierto Blanco. We nibbled on the chips and salsa as we enjoyed our drinks. Then we ordered the chicken Fajitas de la Casa with all rice and no beans. The guacamole was bright green. They cover the chicken fajitas with a crema. I assumed the crema was on the side. Their corn tortillas are amazing. I could eat them separately by themselves. There’s no shredded cheese, just the crema which was different. I definitely prefer shredded cheese. Then there’s the grilled bell peppers, onions and a couple tomatoes. Excellent flavors. Great service from our server. The restaurant has a fun upbeat vibe with positive energies.
For me, the margarita was a 5, service a 5, corn tortillas, guacamole, grilled vegetables and rice were a 5. The crema on the grilled chicken was a 3.75. This is why the food score was 4 stars and not 5. Almost 5 stars across the board.
Suggestion: have the server inform the customer the crema usually is on top of the chicken and would they prefer it on the side.“

“Good food and service! Always a great experience!“

“Yes. Highly recommend. Alicia and Luis from Esquedas Produce Strawberries Avocados. Finds us off frwy 15 deer springs mesa rock Drive. Join us cool people.“

“Food is delicious, service is great“

“We were a little iffy about trying this place. It seemed to be more of a bar than an eatery. We were pleasantly surprised by everything about this place from the food, atmosphere to the service from Andy. Great breakfast. I suggest trying the verde chicken enchiladas topped with eggs. Our new favorite Carlsbad spot.“

“Attentive server. Awesome food, hot and just enough of it. Moderatly loud, was able to have conversations with the people seated next to me, any farther away was very hard. Salsa had a nice kick, with short legs, won't burn out your taste buds.“

“Always great food fast service and very friendly“

“Best carne asada burrito I have ever had! Very consistent, generous size, and truly mouthwatering. At least once or twice a week we pickup from here. My wife loves the shrimp diabla. Since she's not a big eater, it's 2 meals for her. She gets it every time, so must be good 😁“

“Best food I’ve had in years! So glad you’re here in Temecula, can’t wait to go back!!“

“Authentic and fresh Mexican Food like my Abuelita used to make. I especially love the California Burrito with guacamole added and their hot sauce adds the final touch. Enough for two people. The drive-through made it very convenient. Highly recommended! ❤️“

“Excelente servicio y la comida riquisima! Con el auténtico sabor mexicano 100%, sirven una porción muy grande! Y todo muy limpio!“

“I come here at least once a week for fajitas, tacos and/or drinks. But it’s not only the delicious food or drinks that have me returning but their exceptional bartender, Gretta. She takes it upon herself to go the extra miles for not only her restaurant but her customers. She is a diamond in the rough and the perfect embodiment of a fun loving So Cal gal. Keep on pouring em girl. I’ll be back for you!“

“Great food, pleasant atmosphere and good 👍 service“

Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options available. Potatoe tacos ? and veggie burrito ? as well as the bean & cheese if ya feel like pushing it as a Veggie-saurus ?“

“We came with the whole family (7 of us) from San Diego & Murrieta because based on its menu Los Cabos in Vista offered all the types of seafood (raw oysters, whole fish with head and tail, shrimp, octopus). Everything including the tacos we ordered was so finger-licking good!!! Compliments to the chefs! And best of all was the service from Beyonce & Karina - quick, helpful, friendly!!! Our only suggestion would be to please add oxtail to the menu!!! Gracias a todos.“

“THE best salsa anywhere and ever! Very good vibe. Food is mediocre but generous.“

“Best Mexican restaurant in Oceanside!!🇲🇽“

“The food is always fresh, flavorful, and made to order. Their al pastor and carne asada tacos are best in the city. The salsas pack a punch, especially the green one . Service is quick and friendly, and the prices are super reasonable. Whether you’re grabbing lunch or stopping by for late-night eats, Don Paco never disappoints. Highly recommend!“

“Mimosas, shot del patron,cazuelas mazapan lover,unas cuantas de las tantas bebidas que ofrece el restaurant vamos a texcoco en vista ca, riquisima comida, bebidas y ni que decir de la atencion, una chulada“

“Best chicken soup!! All the daily specials are great! Flavorful food at a reasonable price“

“We only had burritos, but holy cow! This is a gem. We live in L.A., and I honestly might drive down here for lunch again. This is the kind of business that should be patronized during these times, so that it survives to provide REALLY GOOD FOOD.“

“Great mexican food! I love their Quesobirria🤤“

“I was lucky enough to have carnitas, chicharrones, & tortillas carried up to Alaska for me to try! It was all AMAZING and a great taste of back home. Authentic carnitas done simply. The tortillas compliment the meat too. ¡Muy delicioso!“

“Breakfast burritos are the best. I love their their rice and bean burritos and their fish burritos as well as the mistake burrito. They could add a little too much white sause on the fish burrito, so I always ask them to go easy on the sause. Fish burrito have a lot of cabbage but it's still good. Prices have increased everywhere, so that's no surprise here either.“

“What an amazing place to eat, fresh food and great service. Shout out to Mike, what an amazing gentleman always checking up on customers and making sure everything is top notch. Best food in the county.“

“I love El pollo loco on vista ca: they have a big menue, and the employees are so nice, also serviceable, my order it was so quickly, and fresh.“

“No sabes a donde ir a comer?, ve ahí y no te arrepentirás.“

“Don’t let the location sway you! It’s inside the Chevron gas station. Tried the Birria taco, steak quesadilla and chicken taquitos. All were so good! Their habanero sauce was pretty bomb too. If you love rolled tacos, definitely try this place out!“

“Breakfast lunch and dinner in one meal“

“Oohh wow i ordered a tripas burrito, and I have to say, it's the best burrito I have had. The ingredients are fresh, cooked to perfection. Service was top notch. If your in vista stop by and try this spot, you won't be disappointed!“

“Margaritas are always great. The one with the beer was a little strange but fun and surprisingly good- presentation was great. Love their chips and salsa. Food is consistently good. Never had a dish I didn't care for. Service is experienced and consistently very good. Ladies powder room... Gotta check it out girls! Have fun at Garcia's. I always do.“

“Best fish tacos ever😍!!! Thank y’all for the great service . Simplemente fantástico 🤩.“

“everything was great!!! had rolled tacos and cheese enchiladas. their chips are great too“

“Great food all the time and great service too. An establishment in Fallbrook! You have to go if you haven’t gone yet!“

“CATERING REVIEW
This review is overdue but I still wanted to share. I ordered food for pick up for birthday party of ~50 guests. Manager was very helpful. I needed to call to increase the # of guests once and it wasn’t a problem.

Food was hot and ready on time. Person working was very friendly and helped load it in the car. We got tacos - carnitas, carne, and pollo plus rice and beans, tortillas, and chips and salsa. It was a big hit. Lots of compliments and plenty of food.“

“Hoy comí Mole de pollo y las tortilla’s hechas de allí muy rico. Si gusta pasen a comer tienen variedades de comida a estilo Chavelita y sus aguas fresca de frutas naturales.“

“This place is tough to beat if you like cheap Mexican food. The atmosphere is very fun if you like old taco joints. The carne asada burritos and tacos are very good and it’s a great place to drop in for a quick lunch if you are driving thru or vacationing in Fallbrook.“

“I love Rubio's. Their fish tacos are consistently good. I wish they still had the mango mahi-mahi, but the wild-caught mahi-mahi is good, too. The staff here is always friendly and helpful, even when I mess up my own mobile order. Thanks to Rubio's for good food and good people.“

“Best Churros I have eaten. Made fresh when you order it. Has custard filling on the inside. They don't do a good job advertising or promoting it. My grandson loves their burritos - reasonable price and large enough portion to satisfy him. Friendly staff and chef.“

“I found this place by accident while walking to Jack in the Box. But I had been wanting to try some fish tacos in California, and yeah, this place has fish tacos.

It has amazing fish tacos. They're six bucks each and they're huge. The fish are in breaded chunks, and there's a lot of fish on these tacos.

This is a 24 hour place, and most people sit outside. The folks in the kitchen deserve a shout-out. Most seating is outside. The menu is huge. And of course in Carlsbad, the weather is always perfect for outside seating.

Update: I went back the next day and got a breakfast burrito. It's as big as a house.

I give this place an A+“

“Good food. Pleasant host. Plenty of space. It’s good to have a restaurant in this area. Parking, dine in or carry out. My first time I only had a burrito because it was almost time to close the kitchen. But now that I’ve been there I will definitely be going back.“

“Great place, highly recommended. We had the machaca plate, love the green sauce at the salsa bar. Delicious!!“

“The food is out of this world. Get it mixed, fantastic. I’ve never seen a fellow gringo here and everyone is speaking Spanish so I have no real idea of what’s going on but all I can tell you is show up Sunday, the earlier the better because they will sell out. There isn’t a place to sit down but nothing matters because the food is amazing. See photo for address or to call in a to go order which I recommend so you can skip the line“

“Amazing veggie fajitas and mango margaritas 😋“
