37 Best Mexican Restaurants near Elmira

“Yesss my husband always stops by here to get tamales when he's coming back working from Sac. So good. I'm always ecstatic when he comes back with a bag full of tamales! Lol Hopefully they can find a better and more environmental way to pack them though instead of the individual plastic zip lock for each tamale“

“Why did I order the Molcajete??? Because the server told me it was really really good!!! Well she lied!!!!!! It wasn't good...it was freaking amazing!!!!!! You get a really good portion so it's shareable if you have your boo with you and you're feeling extra sweet. Otherwise, you'll want to keep it to yourself and take your leftovers home for later. The owners should put a star next to this dish in the menu with a warning "Do not order this unless you live nearby and can come back to eat it again soon!" I'm only here visiting family for a few hours and then I'll be gone. I'm in my feelings 'cause I know I'm going to want to eat this dish again soon. All the different meats were seasoned perfectly and tender to ear and so delicious. It was my first time trying cactus! Not bad! A little tangy bite and complemented the dish well. The cheese was really good! The service and ambiance was great as well. Not a really big spot but big enough for families and possibly a large group if not crowded. I will definitely return if I'm in the area again. Until then...I'll be hunting for a similar dish to satisfy my taste buds #JamersonEATS“

“Came here on a Saturday afternoon craving some Mexican food with some friends and it was really good! I ordered the carnitas quesadilla and of course a birria taco. The meat was nice and juicy, well seasoned and loved the rice and beans. The service was nice and friendly and I believe that it was just a husband and wife duo cooking and serving guests so good job on them for holding it down (: The restaurant was clean, no complaints from here really. I'd definitely eat here again (:“

“We always get take out with our two littles. They are so quick, so friendly, and so accommodating with differences from one item to the next. The mild green salsa is absolutely delicious, I could drink it with a straw. We lived here for three years before discovering Vasquez Deli and I wish we'd found it sooner....coming from a Southern AZ girl!“

“Just tried Los Arcos for the first time today. It was really good. I had the super Tacos with chicken. Nicely seasoned and a great tortilla. My mom had shrimp tacos. She always has a hard time finding a good shrimp taco. These were great. Had the right amount of heat. My son had the super quesadilla. He liked it too. We will be back.“

“My niece and nephew got married on April 14th and wanted Mexican food at their wedding. We have gone to La Cabana’s for years and wanted to try their catering to see if the quality is as good as in the restaurant. I contacted the person in charge of the catering and he was very helpful and helped us set up a menu for the venue. We decided on a taco bar for 30 people with three choices of meat, rice and beans and many fixings for the tacos. The price was very comparable to eating at the restaurant and the food quality was just as good. They arrived on time and the wedding service was still in progress. They realized we were still in the middle of the wedding and they set up the food with as little noise as possible. The catering experience was incredible and I recommend it to everyone. We will continue to eat at their restaurant and will definitely use their catering service again in the future. Thank you La Cabana for your excellent service and great food.“

“Best Mexican food in town! La comida esta deliciosa y authentica! (The food is delicious and authentic). We got home Pedro's super torta and Green chilaquiles (my favorite and always on point!) The super torta is for a big appetite. These plates can be shared.“

“What a gem! Came here because my usual mexican restaurant was 2 hr wait. The lady working the front is amazing, had me try the very deliscious cantalope agua fresca. Yumyumyum! Then we ordered a carnitas wet burrito, pastor super nachos, and many birria tacos. My soul smiled with each bite, seriously so dang good I was amazed food like this existed in the mall food court. Simply THANK YOU! GREAT SERVICE, MENU, PRICES, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY TASTE!“

“Second time here with my husband and mother in law. Not often do you find a restaurant that is authentically good. Like GOOOOOD. Everything is so well seasoned, the price matches the quantity of the food. I PROMISE. The service, the environment. It’s so inviting. Definitely recommend it to anyone craving REAL, AUTHENTIC Mexican food.“

“Portions are big, and the food is absolutely delicious! their Agua Frescas are made by them and they are so good and refreshing! to top it off their customer service is excellent, they are friendly and they are a great family who work together to make the best food they can for their customers! Can't wait to go back and eat there again“

“My family & I have been impatiently waiting for this place to open back up. I was beginning to worry that maybe they never would. I called the old # today by chance & much to our surprise, someone actually answered! Needless to say I placed an order immediately. My Husband quickly handed his freshly prepared (from frozen) pizza off to the kids & ran out the door. ?‍♂️???“

“there was a sign as you walk in that they were short staffed and there might be a wait, we were greeted by friendly staff and said it will be about 5 min, we were seated and order was placed, they weren't busy but there was only 4 staff members including 1 cook, food was served and it was hot, out dinner was enjoyable, food was excellent.“

“I've been having an extremely hard time finding good Mexican food out here as my standards are extremely high. I ordered menudo and it was delicious, flavorful and cleaned properly. The service was extremely friendly and quick. Nice large restaurant with plenty of seating. Definitely would return.“

“Great Tacos!!! they're$getting smaller almost three dollars each. Still chrispy or soft and worth the price.The junior chicken Burrito was really good and only $6.99. For for $10 you can get a good chicken burrito and a taco. Drink water just ask for the cup.Parking: Parking in back..lotsWheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“I have not gotten food from this restaurant in quite some time, but the quality of the food has not changed at all. It is still awesome! The homemade chips and salsa, the shredded beef tostada, the sauce-dripping chicken enchilada, were all yummy. For great Mexican food, El Azteca is the place to go.“

“The place is a little runned down and right next to a homeless camp. The atmosphere is not ideal.Their tacos are to die for!! All of their meat selections are amazing.The taco salad would have been good if the shell wasn't so oily.I would recommend coming here during the day time! :)“

“I have been going here for a long time. It has had its ups and downs and I would give the food 5 stars with no hesitation. Sometimes the service is lacking but it is well worth the minor inconvenience.Kid-friendliness: Open seating arrangement plenty of high chairs and boosters.Wheelchair accessibility: Normal ramp/sidewalk“

“Food was great server was really nice the asada was fresh good authentic Mexican food. All you Liberals complaining about no mask stay at home and make your own food if you're so critical of people wearing mask, I'm sorry all of you bought the government lie. This is what to expect from a cantina very good flavorful food. There is a reason they have been open for 30 years. You mask wearing people are the reason they don't have 5 stars. Salsa is on point to so stop hating or just stay home and cook you own food while not wearing a mask.“

“The Fajitas are ready. Fajita derived from the Spanish, Faja. Fajita is from Southwestern Texas and are Northeastern Mexican. The Vaqueros made them. The Fajita reminds me a lot of Mongolian barbecue, the stir-fried aspect of it. The sizzling plate presentation of Fajitas on an iron plate was from Acapulco, and that's familiar to me. The Steak in a Fajita is also called Romanian Tenderloin, Philadelphia Steak, or Arrachera. It was popularized in Southern Arizona. I don't know what is in this Fajita seasoning. But most of time there should be chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper. Those are some of the ingredients that makes it a hit. This one was mild, but it had a smokiness to it. I was glad to see them bring out the corn tortilla warmer. I rolled it up like it was a Pizza. The part of doing something yourself, is in a lot of cultures. The refried beans were better than some others I had, and the Mexican rice wasn't too tomatoey. I also had an Agua de Jamaica, and the Aguas Frescas is Latin American.“

“We randomly called Los Altos after being given a 2-hour wait time at a nearby Mexican restaurant. So glad we ended up at Los Altos! The four of us sat in a booth in the bar and were greeted warmly by the bartender who took our drink order. Before long we were relaxing & sipping delicious house-made Cadillac margaritas. Between us we had chicken wings, fantastic chicken burrito, along with a Shrimp dish and a beef dish. Portionswere huge and we were all full and happy. So glad we tried Los Altos and recommend that you try it too!“

“They're Mangonada is so good and to die for! They can get busy in the early afternoons and after dinner. Located in a plaza so parking is easy. I loved the tamarind and mango pieces! They always keep me coming back for more. There's tables to sit inside and enjoy too! Staff are super friendly and quick!“

“This is hands down one of thee best places for tacos in Solano county. Chef Chepe and his staff are always on point. The food is fresh, and full of flavor. I've tried the tamales, burritos and some of their specials but the tacos are a 12/10 everytime!“

“Absolutely the best Mexican bread I have ever had. Back in my college days I took a Spanish class and we had an assignment to bring in something related, so, I brought Mexican bread, and ever since, I only go to Panaderia Lupita, but you have to get there early, to get it fresh.“

“It was my first time visiting this place. First, the kid taking the orders had good communication skills and he is very attentive. He offered me water and while I was waiting for my to-go order. He also recommended good food choices. The food came out fast and the crunchy tacos were so good! The meat was well seasoned and tender. The place was very clean and very family oriented. I definitely recommend this place.“

“I don't normally do these reviews but these tacos were too good to not be acknowledged. My husband and I were traveling in from the Bay Area and stopped here for a quick bite and let me tell you - WORTH IT. We ordered tacos & the flavorful was incredible! Everything is fresh, prices are great, and the vibe inside makes you feel cozy and welcome. This is definitely our new favorite taco stop when stopping in the area. Don't walk - but run & try them out!“

“We came to Los Reyes on the way home from the Bay Area for a quick bite to eat. What a beautiful location! The chips and salsa were brought immediately, and the margaritas were delicous. I got the "Holy Mole" mole fried rice and 2 asada tacos. The service was fast and friendly. Great experience overall. ?“

“The food was prepared on the spot, fresh and hot. We had the birria tacos with consome, bomb! The tacos dorados de papa were spot on, too. We also tried their creme brulee, which was delicious! The young lady that attended to us was very kind, patient, and thorough. We went around 630pm on a Monday and they weren't busy, there was one other small party there and they had a few DoorDash pickups. Definitely will be back to try other items on the menu!“

“Recently started working across the street from the Taqueria. Stopped in for lunch one day and I think they’ve created a monster! Was greeted quickly by very nice gentleman who was very helpful with my menu questions and his suggestions. I ordered the shrimp fajitas and Coke, and only spent $16, which is pretty darn reasonable for shrimp fajitas and a drink! The food was so delicious! Phenomenal flavors and perfect portion. I will absolutely be going back. Yum!“

“4.5 StarsOk where do I start?! We had carne asada and chicken tacos. They were $1 each! These are really small street tacos folks...about the size of a small round donut. But worth that dollar for sure. The steak was tender, fresh, and really tasty. There was a tiny bit of salsa on the tacos so next time I'll ask for extra. Hubby liked the chicken but preferred the steak. The beans and rice had so much flavor! I love them with tortilla chips but you have to have your own since they don't provide any. Dinner (and leftovers) for 2 was $17.35!The lady taking orders was sweet and professional.The location is inside the Chevron gas station on the corner of W. Texas & Pennsylvania. There is no outward signage to indicate such but just park and go inside. You will see the large menu blackboard straight ahead once you enter the Chevron mini mart. Yes there are 1 or 2 homeless (looking) individuals outside but they won't bite. Enjoy! We'll be back for sure.“

“Great food @ a very reasonable price. You WILL NOT be disappointed with ANY appetizer or entree. Fabuloso!!Vegetarian options: Available.Kid-friendliness: Very goid.Parking: Nominal number of spaces. ...especially @ peak hoursWheelchair accessibility: One curb off parking area.“

“We have out-of-town guests. We wanted to meet our other friend who lives in Sacramento. Rather driving from the East Bay to Sacramento, we decided to meet half way. Hence, we met for dinner in Vacaville. We ate at Murillo's Mexican Restaurant. FOOD They gave us chips after we sat on to our table. I ordered the combo special, the Enchilada plate. My friends ordered the Paco Special, Shrimp Fajita, and Chicken Chimichanga. We enjoyed each of our orders. SERVICE Our waiter gave us an excellent service. I asked her to take a picture of us. She did. She seemed nice; she smiled throughout the night whenever she came to our table. AMBIENCE Though it was past 7pm, there was still a lot of people. Overall, I would come back to Murillo's Mexican Restaurant and would recommend it if anyone's looking for a Mexican restaurant to dine at.“

“Mami Chuy Tacos popped up in my FB Solano County SFC and saw a post for birra ramen and it was enticing enough for me to drive down to the food truck and get some. Unfortunately, they got booted at their S&F plaza location and they're across the street by by Walgreens, which is a better spot underneath the shaded trees. This is an unassuming food truck presenting a smaller menu but quickly delivers great flavors! Was there for there ramen, but they sold out...so we ordered two of their 3-queso-birra taco combos which included grilled onions, jalapeños/carrot/radish side pickles, and their mouthwatering dipping sauce, husband couldn't not get enough of it and killed his order under a minute. The kid enjoyed their el pastor quesadilla w/ a side of sour cream and avo/guac dip! Loved the freshly diced pico as a bonus! Also ordered up some refreshing piña aguas frescas and horchata. They're honoring a more simplistic no-frills menu and commits to a flavorful and scrumptious bite. The hubby & kid truly enjoyed! Support your local business! The two person team shows their hard work and dedication in their food! Muchas gracias and we'll cya again soon!“
