42 Best Mexican Restaurants in Covina

“Real deal. My new favorite Mexican restaurant.“

“Excellent food and service“

“Love this place service is great food is delicious nice atmosphere well worth it only my second time going there but won’t be my last still want to go for breakfast 😍“

“It's located next to Mi Pulgarcito Pupiseria Salvadoreña and near GS Ethiopian Cafe. I had went to this plaza for another restaurant but they closed already for lunch. I decided to try this grilled chicken place, reminds me of Juan Pollo or El Pollo Loco. It seems family owned with a young teen taking my order.

I chose to try the 16 piece family special with half spicy and regular chicken ($44.99) which came with 4 large sides, tortillas and salsa. I chose their macaroni salad, potato salad, rice, and beans. I got a lunch special for myself that came with a can of soda. The seasoning on the chicken was good, the spicy chicken had a good heat. The skin was crispy and the chicken was moist. My family did not like the sides of macaroni and potato salad.

The staff was nice and the wait time was not long.“

“This place is consistent. Great food great service with friendly staff. Came in for breakfast. Ordered the chorizo a la Mexicana and the ham and cheese omelette. They gave chips and salsa. Chips were fresh and crunchy and the salsa had a little spice to it. Portions are generous so be sure to bring an appetite.“

“Their chilaquiles was so delicious and my son has been asking to come back to try their dinosaur pancakes! He was so thrilled coming here! Thank you for the great service and great food, so Authentic!! My family and I Love it here! You can also try their canpechana or shrimp cocktail, so good!!“

“The Molcajete Sinaloa and the barbecue of roasted meat, cheese, shrimp and chicken are 10/10 !!!With rice, beans and corn tortillas made right there, it is a delight!Fully recommended. [Original] El Molcajete Sinaloa y La Parrillada de Carne asada, queso, camarones y pollo están 10/10!!! con arroz, frijoles y tortillas de maíz hechas ahí mismo, es UNA DELICIA! Totalmente recomendados.“

“The place looks unique from the outside, also has a drive thru. Inside seating about 4 tables plus outside patio seating. Very friendly staff and inside decor has a very Hispanic/Mexican homestyle warmth. Now the food... so far I've been stuck on their carnitas and asada tacos! Comes with grilled onions and roasted jalapenos! Sooooo gooooood! Meat not dry and very tasty. They are not cheap on the meat either! I also love the abodado burrito (may have mis spelled that), I will try that on a sandwich next visit. Great little gem in town. Us over at the Acura dealer enjoy their food very much! See you guys there!“

“Check out the new restaurant in town. Good portion at the right price. First time here and had the Taquitos so delicious.“

“Señor Baja has stolen my heart with their incredible food and friendly atmosphere. The fish tacos are hands down the best I've ever tasted. The fish is fresh, and the batter is light and crispy, making each bite an absolute delight. But wait, there's more! Their señor nachos are a flavor explosion. The combination of savory toppings and a perfect blend of cheese leaves me craving for more. Whether you're a seafood lover or a nacho enthusiast, Señor Baja is a must-visit spot that will leave you wanting to return again and again. ???“

“Every time I come to Covina, this is my spot. Tacos (quesobirria & lengua) were on point. But my babe got the Cali burrito..man it was so huge and delicious. I was so happy cause he didn't even notice how many bites I took haha. Definitely recommend ??“

“On Arrow Hwy and Barranca city of Covina, there's this little gem call Luigi's tacos B.O.M.B tacos!

Best around street Tacos and Burritos all their food is packed of flavor, fresh and best of all unlike other taco stands that barely put any meat, not here they always put more than enough meat on their tacos and Burritos so definitely you get your money's worth.

All the times I've been here they keep their taco stand pretty clean again unlike others that have trash laying around their taco stand this one here they keep it clean. Service as well pretty friendly, dudes cooking the food as well friendly with that welcoming attitude no salty faces here.

Overall awesome spot to hit up for some late night taco cravings. Prices are really reasonable, some of these taco stands around the area are way overpriced that's why you never see anyone hitting those up, so definitely recommend this one!“

“Came in for lunch. Camilla was our server. So attentive, nice, friendly and we really enjoyed the chat! Camilla was a highlight to our visit! The food was also good. Chips were warm! The ranch salad dressing was homemade. We had a carne asada burrito and the lunch chili relleno plate. The place had beautiful decor and we would come back! Great spot!!“

“Ricos Bionicos, Jugos, nieve, flan, taquitos, nachos, tortas, Cafe de Olla, y mas!

This small, family-oriented Juice bar is located on Arrow Hwy & Hollenbeck Ave. by Vicky's Barbershop with a small private parking lot.
Their menu consists of so many yummy treats such as 'Ice cream, Raspados (shaved ice), Bionicos (Fruit salad), shakes, smoothies, iced coffee, fresh juices, and even food such as hotdogs, sandwiches, salads, tortas, taquitos', etc.
I tried their 'Strawberry smoothie' and a 'Bionico', which is a fruit salad with sweet cream and toppings over it. I liked that the cream was not too sweet. The fruit was fresh and everything tasted great, ideal for this hot weather.
They also have 'Fruit Party Trays' which are perfect for a potluck or simply a gathering.
Service was amazing, very friendly, and welcoming.
Overall, I had a good experience here and will definitely return to try other goodies.“

“I ordered from Doordash and I am now posting my review here: The absolute best Carne Asada burrito I have had and I am not a big burrito person. Everything was perfectly proportioned. The meat was extremely well seasoned. I got red salsa from ordering tacos but it was soo good. The perfect amount of spicy to keep you wanting more in every bite. My kiddos loved the tacos and the rice tastes home made. Everything was fresh and I will definitely be a return customer. 🙂“

“Chile Verde..🎤dropped 😬🌮🤘“

“tacos de pescado delicious“

“real authentic Mexican food“

“Ima start off thanking the two employees there today. They had amazing customer service in both English and Spanish. The food was made in front of you quickly and the burrito I got was huge and fulfilling it was really good. Want some quick Mexican street food stop by it’s worth it“

“Great vibe, great food! Go there!!“

“This is the last time I buy anything from this establishment. ...this is not the first time ..I purchased a double chicken bowl $14 by itself ..and I got a handful of chicken or I should say remnants It looks like they cleaned the chopping block ..this supposed to be a double chicken bowl ..I'm done w epl“

“This is my first time trying this location as we just moved to Covina and were worried we wouldn't find a spot we'd love but we were not disappointed at all. The food was made correctly and as ordered, the workers there were polite and courteous, the prices were fair and the food was absolutely delicious. We definitely found our new spot by our place that we will be visiting frequently. Definitely recommend to go here, you won't be disappointed....“

“I got the Famous Breakfast Burrito this morning. I must say, it had enough of everything in it. The eggs, cheese, bacon and potatoes. Wasn't dry and great with a side of green salsa. I'll definitely be returning. My new place for a breakfast burrito.“

“The Carne Asada Plate! Bomb!!“

“Alberto's is the real deal, plus it's one of the only places in the Covina area to get some late night food
Don't be fooled by the many wannabees that use the red and yellow color scheme and names that kinda sound like Alberto's, they're just not the same.“

“The food here is amazing. Best salsa in town and the ceviche is fresh.“

“dope place!!! I'd be back for sure“

“The Best Taco truck in Covina !!!!!!“

“I loved it so much!!!

I recently took my wife back to her hometown in La Puente, and we stopped at Snap E Taco in nearby Covina. The food was excellent — flavorful, fresh, and made with care. The portions were generous, and everything tasted just like authentic home-style Mexican food should.

The service was friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere had that classic local charm that makes you feel right at home. It’s the kind of place that reminds you why small, family-run spots often beat the big chains.

If you’re in town and craving Mexican food, Snap E Taco is definitely worth the stop. We’ll be back next time we’re in town!“

“The food is really good, they are open pretty late, however the staff can be cold or rude at times. It seems they are just like that, so don't take it personal, if you can look past that the food is solid. Big potions, at a reasonable price considering, and very tasty!“

“Got a fish sandwich was excellent. I ordered combo and when I picked the bag up I thought maybe they put a brick or something in there because it had more weight than you would expect from a fish sandwich and some fries. When I looked there was another bag inside with enough fries to feed Guatemala... the entire country of Guatemala! I already knew the fries were going to be high quality because who would put 20 lbs. Of shitty fries in an order?
Prices reasonable, seemed to have a large selection even though its named a burger place.
If in and out had fries like this place they would take over the whole world.
Based on what I got here and what I saw as I waited for my order I would recommend this place.“

“Each time I eat at Mariposa I'm reminded how much I enjoy it and what a special “secret “ it is in Beverly Hills. All the other best restaurants tend to be so loud and hurried but at Mariposa it's a very pleasant experience, the food is delicious, the staff are Neiman Marcus level great and I always want to return sooner. It's a value, too for all the amenities it offers.“

“Drove from DTLA to Covina just for Taco Tuesday. Love the Club Theme Vibe the music was Amazing. The food and Drinks out of this World.“

“Muy recomendable, los nachos están súper deliciosos y con bastante carne ! Y su horchata muy rica. Su atención al cliente : amables y hablan español. Gracias ☺️“

“I just went in for a quick bite earlier today and the service was amazing. Brandon and Susan (I hope I spelled their names right) were working up at the front and they were very friendly and helpful, and the food was good. George worked in the back, but the service was fast and the food was perfect but the staff really made my day.“
