21 Best Mexican Restaurants in La Mirada

“As you walk in birds chirp to welcome you in. I ordered the carne en su jugo, it was delicious. Born in Jalisco, and eating this dish at homemade, it definitely hits home! I also tried the red pork pozole and was ok for my standards,but for my American friend it was a 10. The bigest disappointment was the Tamale de Rajas ( cheese with jalapeño slices) it had no cheese, but had tomato, onion and jalapeño. I would not recommend it. Service was excellent, very clean establishment. Only recommendation is to offer a desert, like churro, flan or arroz con Leche. I would come back, I would like to try the albóndigas next time.“

“My second time here with my son. Great music, plenty of seating. The food is great. Variety of options on the menu. The carna asada tacos were delicious. They give you red and green sauce for the tacos. The sodas came in a tall plastic cup. Plenty of soda. There are no trash cans, after you eat they clean up the table.“

“Excelente Servicio y muy Limpio el Lugar. Y sobre todo Muy sabrosa la comida. lo recomiendo.“

“Place was clean and food was really good but service was horrible! Other reviews said the same. They had my son waiting a while for a drink refill until I went to get it myself. After eating our meals, I went to get a drink refill and they just ignored me and had me wait a while as well. 2 ladies didn't acknowledge me or the gentleman serving.Even a customer stated that it wasn't kool to have me wait a while for a refill. If you advertise free refills, then give it! You need to improve your service if you want regular or new customers ! Edit: since my last review, they placed the drink dispenser out in the open. Now you don't have to wait for a refill. Good job guys!“

“We found this place by accident today. Wow!!! The food is authentic and so delicious!!! You got to try the trio fajitas and the chorizo torta. Mmmmmm.

Many thanks to our wonderful waiter Walter who made us feel like we were at home.

We will be back soon....“

“Tequila Ceviche was Delicious! Their Craft beer was not only yummy, but nice and Cold. They serve samplers too! The staff was very friendly. I look forward to my next visit.“

“Muy buena comida y servicio“

“Very friendly, cozy spot. I had the pleasure of trying this place with my family and it did not disappoint. Prices are decent and affordable, and the service is truly top tier.

They bring out free chips and salsa, and the portions for the meals are huge, so you definitely get your money’s worth. It feels like a very family-oriented restaurant, and the interior design gives it a warm, welcoming vibe.

We enjoyed munching on chips and salsa while waiting for our entrées, and the staff was friendly across the board. Highly recommend for a casual family meal.“

“Amazing food and compassionate kind-hearted people. It’s my favorite place to eat, a routine spot because of the great service!“

“It was absolutely the best Mexican food. Had the best waitress Mallory. Efficient and kept checking on us if we were ok or needed anything. Very friendly too. Food being excellent and a great waitress tops it all off. Thank you and we’ll be for sure!!“

“Got 1b Barbacoa,3 small consome and three drinks for 3 ppl, paid around 70. It was very much worth it, more than enough food for everyone. I appreciate that the consome came with garbanzos and rice,honestly best ive ever tasted. Also tried their cucumber limeade, excellent perfect pairing. Finally, fresas n crema was perfect thick sweet cream. Would definitely come back and recommend!“

“I wish I could give this 5 stars. The food is amazing, the staff is great but the drive through intercom sucks. I have been here 3 times and they haven’t gotten my order correct once because the intercoms is so dated and has such bad clarity. I wish the owner would take some pride in the establishment and make some updates to this incredible establishment.“

“Great food, great service. Friendly employees, friendly owner. Can’t go wrong with this place.“

“I have been coming here for years. The food is amazing and they are the nicest people. It's always fresh and the staff goes out of their way to serve you. Very hospitable, always welcoming and are super quick. I make sure to stop by when I get back in town, first thing, for their Chorizo & eggs. Recommend to anyone who supports the old school places that make really good food!“

“This place has by far the best seafood in So Cal bar none. There's not a single thing on the menu that hasn't been exceptional. I am not sure why I never paid attention as I have driven by this place for at least 24 years. Now that I have tried it , I can't have enough of it. They have the best fried Mojarra, and they have the superlatively delicious cucaracha shrimp. Their shrimp dishes are out of this world. Their prices are also moderate for seafood. Stop wasting your time when looking for some good Mexican seafood restaurants. This is it. Don't make the mistake I made. You can thank me later.“

“Great service, good food.“

“very good food! I highly recommend Tom's. great deals.“

“The restaurant provided an outstanding experience marked by great service and excellent food. From the start, staff created a welcoming environment that made guests feel at ease. The menu was diverse and thoughtfully crafted, offering appealing choices for everyone. Food arrived quickly, hot, and beautifully presented. Each dish tasted fresh and flavorful, leaving a lasting impression. Service was attentive throughout, with staff checking in just enough to ensure comfort. The dining space was bright, clean, and inviting, which added to the enjoyment of the meal. Everything combined to create a positive, memorable visit that guests would happily repeat.“

“I had lunch with a friend who lives nearby. Ordered the thigh and leg combo. It was really good. I live in the San Fernando Valley, but I think the food was good enough to warrant another visit here. I also enjoyed the Orange Cream drink. I rode the Metrolink train to Norwalk and took Norwalk Transit Bus 4 and got off at Imperial Highway / Santa Gertrudes bus stop to visit the restaurant.“

“I sorta didn't have enough money to pay my order but the staff was really helpful in offering solutions. But in the end they gave me a free soda and I apologized and went on my way with my head buried in the sand and my tail tucked between my legs.“
