33 Best Mexican Restaurants near Imperial

“I had been wanting to try this place out for a while; several of my friends had raved about how good the food is. I had the Tuesday taco special—tripas, carnitas, and carne asada—and they were really good; the meats were well-seasoned and tender. My son (a very picky eater) had the quesabirria egg rolls and gave them a thumbs up. It’s a small, unassuming place with ample parking and the staff is very friendly and welcoming. For the price of a fast food combo you’re better off getting delicious, authentic Mexican food from this local business.“
