16 Best Mexican Restaurants in Menlo Park

“The portions are large and cooked with love. Everything on the menu is fantastic. The staff is friendly and actually cares about their customers. A really fantastic secret little jewel to go enjoy“

“I saw a worker from another place come back from break holding a churro. I had to ask where, this shop was two doors down. First I ordered the churro and then I saw the fun ice cream varieties. Settled on a refreshing soursop, it had seeds! My friend got a dried fruit and he said that grew on him. There are many other flavors to try next time. Service was nice, there are a couple of tables to sit and eat other snacks that they make as well. PS the churros were OK, crispy and sweet but the middle was not as crispy as fresh out of a fry vat in Mexico.“

“I had a regular burrito at Mexcal Taqueria and it definitely hit the spot. The tortilla tasted fresh, the ingredients were well balanced, and everything was packed with flavor without being overdone. You can tell they care about the quality of the food. Portions were solid for the price, and the salsa had a nice kick to it.

Service was quick and friendly, and the whole place had a relaxed, authentic vibe. I’ll definitely be back to try more of the menu.“

“Holy underrated spot. 27 lived here my whole life and never been here til today. The chicken spot next door is legendary but this is overlooked. Big tortillas made by hand and good prices. 2 tacos here is 4 anywhere else and flavors are bomb. Maybe it's just a well kept secret but had to let yall know. Goated birria too“

“favorite place to go with friends“

“absolutely love the enchilada and guacamole here, price is very reasonable too! idk whats in the orange sauce or whats it called but its very delicious. also love the freeflow nachos station. nacho chips are light and crispy, and the grilled onions, wow! couldnt stop eating them. the bright green salsa is also so refreshing and delicious“

“I have to say, they have one of the best Authentic Pupusas I’ve ever tasted in my entire life. I am very picky with my food and I got to say man, they make one of the best if not the best pupusas in the entire Bay Area. They also offer quite the variety of food! It’s like a mix of Salvadorian and Mexican cuisine. Not to mention that the owners and staff are always very clean and they are very professional! I will definitely be back here soon. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I came here on a whim as it's close to a few of my weekly stops. The tacos were sublime, seasoned well and not too greasy. The staff were friendly and seemed overall to be enjoying themselves. Atmosphere could use some touch up but also it's not intended to be a hangout spot like a coffee shop, so I can't fault them on that.“

“Excelente !!!! Delicioso todo ...🍻👍“

“Fun atmosphere. Looks like they have a bar too for beer if you’re into that. The Taco Trio
was good. The carnitas, pollo verde & pollo asado were tasty. Mango was a choice of toppings and that made the tacos for me. The corn tortillas were heated up on a flat grill that made them a little chewy. I prefer a softer corn tortilla. Staff could have been a little more welcoming and friendly. 🥰

I was a little frustrated because I asked form my order to eat in but my food was out in a to go tray with a stupid plastic lid. The server had trouble understanding me. When in heck is there going to be leadership in this country to help with reducing plastic consumption? I’m so SICK of plastic! 🤮

What I liked the most was the early evening shade and the cool summer breeze on the outdoor patio in front of the restaurant. That’s the best on a hot summer day! BTW, are you contributing to any of the Democrats trying to flip seats in the house and senate? All it takes is a few bucks from each of us! 👍

Just wish there was a place to get a dang coffee around here! 😃“

“A good place to have some Guatemalan food, ,,,fast service and clean“

“Esta tienda es la numero 1 para mi llo siempre compro mis carnes y pescado y siempre esta fresca y muy rica.. Y la q le puso 1 estrella es obio q la pesen antes y luego la muelen en otras partes lla esta molida pero cuesta mas claro y tu cres q la molida es gratis obio q no..!! Nada es gratis..!!“

“excelente servicio y los tacos de pescado están deliciosos😋 y buen precio por todo“

“Not a good value. Their burritos are too small for $14. The grilled veggie burrito is basically just a small amount of grilled veggies and a small amount of cheese in a tortilla. Maybe I can’t expect much more from Atherton. Nice patio tho“

“This place is pretty tasty. They are under construction, but have big tables out front. The plates are an ok deal, like the asada plate for 14 bucks, or a torta for 8 bucks. But the prices are really high for a modest joint! With small tacos at 3 bucks each, lunch with a drink is about 20 bucks! Maybe I am getting old but 20 bucks should buy you more than a plate of 4 tacos. Did I mention they were tasty? Very tasty!“

“I love their barbeque chicken but lately it has been so salty to the point my kids can't eat it. Not once but two three times, I told the cook while picking it up but he kinda shrugged it off. I come all the way from San Jose to get your grilled chicken please make it like the way you used too“
