32 Best Mexican Restaurants in Indio

“Great food and friendly service.“

“This place is so good......“

“We have been coming to Taco Gonzales for YEARS, and it has truly become one of our family’s favorite places. The food is always delicious, but what really makes this place special is the people.

This is a family-run restaurant, and they genuinely make you feel like you’re part of their family. Armando, Anna, and Alex are the familiar faces we see most often, and their second son also helps in the kitchen. Every time we come in, we’re greeted with that warm, welcoming feeling that you just don’t get everywhere.

And I have to mention one very important detail: my youngest daughter LOVES the carne asada tacos here — tortillas and all! 😂 This is actually the ONLY place where she will eat the tortilla with her carne asada tacos. Anywhere else, she eats the carne and leaves the tortilla behind. So clearly, Taco Gonzales has figured out something special!

After all these years, we keep coming back not only because the food is so good, but because it feels like we’re visiting people we know and care about. If you’re in Indio and haven’t tried Taco Gonzales yet, you absolutely should. Support this wonderful family-owned business — you won’t regret it! ❤“

“It's a very nice Mexican restaurant. My waiter was great and the food came out fast. I only have one complaint. I'm from the Midwest, Kansas and our Mexican food is served with ground beef, not shredded meat unless you order fajitas. I guess it's a California thing to use shredded meat instead of ground beef. Next time I google a Mexican food restaurant, I'll check out the menu first to see if they use ground beef!!“

“Over the top amazing. The fish tacos were incredible, the chili relleno is something I always order. Yes it is a Mexican restaurant but the food and the Cadillac margaritas are truly memorable, the experience is similar to exquisite dining. No table cloths no cloth napkins limited upscale decorations but a restaurant we always visit from Phoenix.“

“This restaurant has been around for 60 years. I have been a regular guest for 5 years. The staff is very professional and friendly! If you want a pleasant experience, I will look for you there! The menu is full of great dishes and if you like Margaritas, the ladies will set you up nicely! Located in Old Indio, they are open for breakfast, lunch and dinner! They have outdoor seating and any restaurant around this long means they are very good!!“

“Birria tacos, quesadilla, deconstructed Tamales, great condiments! Not only is the birria delicious, but the owners are awesome. We come from Seattle for sun and family and always eat here. Don’t miss it!“

“Fantastic customer service!“

“We were looking for a sweet treat, did a quick search, and ended up here—and we’re so glad we did. The menu is simple and focused entirely on raspados, and they truly specialize in them. The flavors were delicious, and the texture of the ice was perfect—every bite was packed with flavor.

The owners were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and efficient, which made the experience even better. If you’re in the area and craving something refreshing, this spot is definitely worth a visit.“

“We tried out this restaurant and we loved the food. We have been back multiple times trying different dishes on Menu. Today Shrimp green enchiladas plate. Also Vuelve a la Vida coctel. Simply amazing. Last week we had Menudo and Chilaquiles w/Steak eggs loved ❤ it. 100% recommended 👌 service is great!“

“I have gone to the restaurant and to the stand and I recommend both places. They're friendly and attentive; the restaurant is clean and the staff is welcoming. I've tried their Al Pastor tacos, carne asada and suadero and its a really good flavor. In my opinion their Al Pastor is very authentic; it reminds me of my childhood in Mexico.“

“Absolutley Yeahhhhh. Great breakfast. Friendly people“

“First time visiting Taqueria Mazatlan and we were extremely impressed!
We were greeted within seconds of walking in, and once seated, the staff went above and beyond by bringing us samples of their different meats since it was our first time. Everything we tried was absolutely delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. The food was exceptional, but the amazing service made the experience even better.
Definitely the best taco food truck we’ve tried in this area — we’ll absolutely be back!“

“Love the Tacos!! Always go there on a Tuesday or Thursday for their tacos. They have some amazing Salsa as well. The workers are always very friendly and nice. Definitely will be visiting them again when im in town. Try their burritos as well! Huge and delicious.“

“so amazing! we are obsessed, the consume was a very pleasant surprise. I want to try all the things now ♡“

“Tacos Galaktikos is seriously one of the best food trucks I’ve tried! The food is always fresh, full of flavor, and the portions are really good for the price. I had the al pastor tacos and birria nachos and everything was packed with flavor, especially the meat and salsas. The aguas frescas were also super refreshing. Service was fast and friendly, and the whole vibe of the truck is really cool and unique. Definitely coming back again and recommending it to everyone!“

“We really enjoyed Tacos Habibi! The service was excellent. The young lady who helped us was so sweet, friendly, and helpful. Our food was made fresh to order, came out pretty quickly, and everything we tried was really good.
They have a nice-sized menu with different specials throughout the week, and the prices are very reasonable. There are already several other things on the menu we want to try, so we will definitely be going back. Great food and great service—we're glad we gave this place a try!“

“I worked with Oscar on a catering order for my friend bachelorette of 17. He was responsive, helpful, the food was AMAZING. the best part is you get to choose unlimited veggies and sauces with your order!! Highly recommend for a group order!!!!“
