50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Irwindale

“Some of the best food you will eat. Service is great.“

“My favorite taco place! I used to frequent here when my office is close by. I still make the drive here to get their tacos and burrito and ceviche because I, or my kids, have the cravings. I've been getting their catering trays for company events and it's always a hit. ?“

“I love all their food , and its always busy so today i called to place order that way i could just pick up. I called about 5-6 times nobody answered , the last called i made i was in the corner of la Bufadora , when i came inside place was empty maybe two tables were taken at the most and one person waiting for an order . I asked the cashier, Alejandro if the phone was working and he said they didn’t answer because they were very busy .. Yes they were busy but talking among each other with the cooks when i got there . Nobody in line .😞“

“I'm here just about every other weekend to get takeout for the family. The Indian flavors really come through in an exciting way. The rotisserie chicken is one of the best I've found in LA, and it's not even the best chicken on the menu. Anything with beans are a must-have.“

“Went with a good friend on mine and I had the chorizo and eggs which was amazing and they had nescafe coffee which no one has. It reminded me of my mom RIP. They also have an amazing cafe de la hoya which was also delicious. Highly recommend this spot.“

“I absolutely love these fish tacos. Doesnt ever have to be summertime for me to want fish tacos and ceviche! The staff is helpful and courteous. Food is brought to your table, they have tv on so if your watching a baseball game, it may possibly be on.

Their service hasn't ever disappointed even while having to attend to drive through orders. Restrooms are clean. There is outside seating as well.“

“great meal and very Pleasant service..“

“The food here is like Grandma used to make. Delicious“

“Amazing birria tacos 😍🌮 came in at around 9pm and I also got a Cantarito. Soooo good. The consomé is also really good. The queso birria tacos are $3.50 & the consomé is $3. Really great price. The Cantarito was $15 but it was really good. I had it with Mezcal 🍹I took the food to go and even though I ate about an hour after I got them, they were still really good. No soggy tortillas 😆 overall 5/5 ⭐! Great service, too! Thank you so much! 🙏“

“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.“

“Deliciousness! Very good portion and reasonable price! Staffs are nice!“

“I come here so often some know me by name.

Get the shrimp burrito is you want to blow your name. The fish/shrimp taco is also really good here!!

Anytime I have a difficult day, I love coming here and treating myself to the shrimp burrito. They also offer grilled shrimp!

To be honest though, the consistency of how good the burrito is varies, but it varies between “yummy” to “my mind is blown this is the best thing ever”“

“food is delicious. 😊😊😊😋😋😋😃😃😃“

“If you have not had the chance to dine in at Girasol, I highly recommend it. The chicharon with guac is a must as a starter, make sure you get some of the spicy sauce. As for a recommendation for a meal, well you have to come in and try. We loved the chilaquiles, the carne en su juego, the menudo, and the breakfast burrito. If you have a sweeter taste, the French toast, the pancakes and the crepe are awesome. But as mentioned before, you just have to come in and try everything.“

“I was told about this place from an out of town coworker that has relatives near by. The owner/cook was very hospitable and everything was surprisingly low priced. Tacos were very tasty and well balanced. I would go back definitely. The only thing I didn’t really like was the parking lot cause its entrance is very close to a busy blvd with fast traffic. You have to exit very carefully. I recommend either parking in the back, side street or back in.“

“I have been going for about 4 years really recommend delicious food 🥘 love it 🥰“

“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 😍“

“Excellent food and service“

“Ordered a bowl of albondigas and the chile colorado plate. Holy cow! Shouldve ordered one or the other. I cant breathe now. The soup was amazing. Came out perfect temperature. Veggies were right between soft and crunchy. Meatballs were perfect. Really good bowl of soup for sure. Chile colorado plate was great as well. Full of flavor and beef was very tender. Rice and beans were perfect addition to smear on the flour tortillas. Good music and good ambiance. Staff are very polite and professional. My iced tea never got even down to half a glass. Chips and salsa were also good. Salsa had a bite but not too much. Chips had just the right amount of salt. Awesome experience here. Im gonna ask to load next door every week. Lol“

“Love his YouTubes even if they are in 100% Spanish and am not. Bench watched last night.“

“This is my cousin‘s restaurant, but even if it wasn’t, I still love love, love their food.This family knows how to cook! Handmade tortillas and sopes like they do in Mexico. Their beans are better than my mothers, but don’t tell her that lol I’m a big believer that if the beans aren’t good the rest of the food isn’t good so I always start with the beans!“

“Super friendly staff and a cozy atmosphere. The chicken was crispy and juicy. Salsas are definitely worth a try! Food was served straight to our table within 5-10 minutes after ordering. The staff was so helpful in picking out deals and coupons. I highly recommend this place. The prices are low, and just a great establishment overall.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Yummy food and great people!!“

“Pozol de Cacao was Amazing drink, Plátanos con crema delicious, hand made tortillas every bite delicious, real authentic flavor Plate, Tamal de chipilin, chorizo with black beans all bomb. Hungry thinking about how good it was, i recommend this place 100%“

“Best place to go, when hunger hits. Good price good taste“

“Best!!! Mexican food, outside of my home I’ve had in Forever!!! Thank you Sr. Carlos🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🧂🧂🍋“

“Food delicious 😋 Staff is very nice make u feel welcome“

“A gem in the city of Monrovia. It’s in a small plaza next to a laundromat, near a liquor store and across from another taco stand—this taco stand across the way doesn’t serve fish tacos. This place has a good variety on their menu, but the prized item is their fish tacos. Quite tasty and delicious with green or red (for the more spicy palettes) salsa. A good place to stop off for a snack or meal. Great and friendly service, especially from Mario.“

“Quick and friendly service! Every bite of food was like the first! Wonderful Cadilllac Margarita!“

“Buenisimos., apenas los probamos semana pasada y volveremos pronto!...“

“We ordered menudo and tamale de chicharon with green sauce. Yes, yes, yes I am happy, absolutely flavorful. We were greeted with a great smile and then handed delicious meals. The café de la olla was not too sweet which is my preference. Gracias Carmen!“

“Just ate here for the first time. So good, so fresh! I had the chicken molé enchiladas. The molé is the best I've ever had! My wife and daughter had the green chile enchiladas and they raved about them. My youngest daughter had the quesabirria, and again, highest rating. We also had the ceviché. The shrimp were perfectly tender and all the produce is fresh. It does not taste like ANYTHING sits around all day. All our food tasted freshly prepared. Generous portions!
It's a cozy, little place. Very clean and homey. The owner and waitress are so nice and hospitable. We are looking forward to our next visit.
Shout out to all my Baldwin Park folks, you have The Best Mexican restaurant in the area out there next to the quarries on Azusa Canyon Road!“

“This place is amazing! I've been coming here since I was a kid, and everything tastes incredible and is totally worth the price. The best part is how easy it is to strike up a conversation and become friends with the other customers. It's more than just a restaurant; it's a community“

“(Translated by Google) For those who crave carnitas prepared daily in the Michoacán style, this is the place for you.The prepared carnitas are delicious, and even more so when they are enjoyed with a good spicy sauce and handmade tortillas.They have the option of eating inside the restaurant or ordering for home.Personally, I prefer to order to go. They sell assorted carnitas or to taste with a good variety of hot sauces. They also offer the option to buy handmade tortillas. What does it matter, to bring a good meal home to enjoy with the family and in the way one prefers.For fans of good carnitas, without a doubt, I recommend this place.(Original)Para los que tienen antojo de carnitas preparadas a diario al estilo Michoacán, este es el lugar para ustedes.Las carnitas preparadas son deliciosas, y más cuando se disfrutan con una buena salsa picante y tortillas hechas a mano.Tienen la opción de comer dentro del restaurante o hacer pedidos para el hogar.En lo personal, yo prefiero hacer pedidos para llevar. Venden las carnitas surtido o al gusto con una buena variedad de salsas picantes. También ofrecen la opción de comprar las tortillas hechas a mano. Que mas da, para llevar una buena comida a casa para disfrutar en familia y de la manera que uno prefiere.Para los fans de buenas carnitas , sin duda, les recomiendo este lugar.“

“Good food & good margaritas too!!“

“Probably the best little hidden gem in this area. It's got a big quiet parking lot. The place is completely unassuming from the outside.
I've had burritos, tacos and sándwiches from this place and everything I've ever picked up from here has been A+. If you're near, you should definitely stop by.“
