50 Best Mexican Restaurants near North Palm Springs

“We stopped by Jalisco’s this morning for brunch and it ended up being such a great experience! As soon as we walked in, we were greeted with a warm, friendly smile and told we could sit anywhere. The vibe was welcoming right from the start.
I ordered the cucumber lemonade and OMG — highly recommend! Super refreshing, crisp, and delicious. For food, we got the chilaquiles and the nachos (as pictured), and both were packed with flavor and the perfect amount of spice.
The place stayed busy the whole time we were there — even a local sheriff’s deputy came in, which to me says a LOT. You know they’re picky about where they eat, so that’s when you know the food is good!
If you’re visiting the area or just passing through, Jalisco’s is a must-stop. Friendly service, great food, and an overall awesome vibe. Definitely going back!“

“Our meal at Maleza was the best dining out experience that we've had in a long time. Our server Anthony was fabulous, extremely knowledgeable and helpful. All of the courses were outstanding and unique, and the mezcal old fashioned was a great take on a classic. The meals are generous and flavors delicious. A must try restaurant in Palm Springs!“

“Sat outside around 9 tonight and had wonderful service. Food was excellent and the cocktails were delicious. Margarita flight was the perfect choice. 10/10 would recommend“

“I apologize but I have been going to get food at this location ever since they opened. I should have given a review from the start, but I wanted to wait until I truly experienced all of what they have to offer. All I have to say is, AMAZING. Everything from their carnitas tacos to carne asada nachos is the best. I can say I even drink their hot sauce lol. You want food that gives every bang for the buck, you need to go here. They are such wonderful people to deal with, which makes it even better.“

“If you're looking for a casual place for tacos & burritos The Super Taco place on highway 111 by Del Taco in Cathedral City is great! Went there for lunch today and ordered a carne asada taco with the works and a chicken hard shell taco. Both filled with tons of delicious meat and fixings. Price was less than $15. Cute place and a great patio in the back that would work well for a group of maybe 40+! I’ll be going back again!“

“Great food and drinks..Relaxed vibe and atmosphere. Tacquitos Dorado and Tacos LA Paz were excellent...We'll be back!!!“

“The atmosphere takes you to a village in Mexico. The food is authentic. Love the nachos. Pleasant wait staff.“

“Great neighborhood hole in the wall Mexican Restaurant behind CVS on Vista Chino and Landau Blvd.“

“Food is great as well as the prices. Margarita are good as well. I will definitely be coming back. I’ve been here four or five times now. The waiter didn’t once ask me once how my meal was. Nor did he offer dessert. The gentleman refilling my water, salsa, and chips was awesome though. Maybe I happen to miss it each time I’m but I really would like to hear some mariachi or other types of traditional Mexican music whether live or recorded. This is a Mexican restaurant after all. Again, I definitely plan on coming back.“

“place is clean/spotless. staff are super friendly. food was great. Will be back“

“Great food and they are wonderful at supporting our hometown community“

“Chips are made fresh, salsa is fresh as well... I do not care for their version of guacamole. Its more like a creamy/thick avocado sauce. Its good, just not guacamole.

The birria tacos were a home run.

The service was absolutely on point..

FYI, No real appetizer section on the menu, just main dishes...

I wish they had a hot salsa option for those that want heat.

I will be back soon.“

“The mole enchiladas were TO DIE FOR! I cook mole and this recipe has me stumped, the presentation is also 10/10 The staff was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. The chips and salsa were excellent as well and I had the Jamaica agua fresca and it’s was just sweet enough any sweeter or diluted would be too much!!! Definitely coming back!!!“

“Old school neighborhood joint! Perfect. Our server was always smiling. The cod tacos were great as were the rice and beans. Chips were thin and crispy. Scratch kitchen. And to make the experience complete, clean bathrooms. This business has definitely been cared for over the years. Nothing fancy. Just good food and service.“

“The food and service at Tortillas Restaurant is amazing!! I had the Chile Relleno with cheese (vegetarian options available, which was super nice!) and my husband had the Enchiladas de Mole with chicken - and both were delicious! The mole sauce is definitely of 5-star quality! It was all so fresh and authentic, with the foods being beautifully presented on the plates. I also highly recommend the horchata drinks there too!“

“I went with a friend for Taco Tuesday and will definitely be back. Salsa is not out of a can, it’s made fresh, on site and is GREAT! Tacos were really great and very reasonably priced. EXCELLENT friendly service. Interior of the restaurant is nicely decorated. I’ll definitely back. 😊👍“

The burrito n tacos are a major must try! I believe they have menudo n birria on certain days of the week also.“

“Bring Rubio’s to Dallas, TX!“

“Good food I love the barbacoa yum 😋“

“So good!! My husband grew up in a palm Springs and we have been enjoying date shakes for 40 years together and have tried them all. The date shakes here are the real deal. They are the only one that uses real dates and ice cream. Not date flakes or ice milk. The pastrami sandwich is so good also and enjoy the peaceful patio. If you see the bus there come back later. It’s a small family store and can get busy“

“Es todo bien. From the breakfast burrito to carne asada fries you won't be disappointed. There's a lot of competition for this flavor of food and this is the best in the general vicinity of Ramon and Date Palm. Honestly there are roughly 20 plus places to eat on any corner of Date Palm and Ramon. I always choose here for Mexican.“

“the best in town I highly recomend best birria ever“

“Wow!! Absolutely amazing restaurant and bar! Flew in late last night and wanted a fun place with atmosphere to have appetizers and drinks. This was the perfect place!! Outdoor or indoor patio with mist kept is cool and refreshed. Loved the dim lighting and the modern decor! So inviting and relaxing. Fresh flowers on the tables and comfortable chairs. Very good service ! Excellent food! Tasty drinks that were visually appealing!! I’ll definitely go back ! Julio The manager greeted us and chatted with us and made us feel so welcome!! Our waiter was Jonathan was very friendly and attentive . This place is a gem and in the perfect location downtown!“

“I’m blown away! This food should be Michelin recommended. I’ve lived in California for over a decade and been to Mexico multiple times - and these may be the best fish and shrimp tacos that I’ve ever had in my entire life. And our server was truly the sweetest person in the world.“

“This is our go to place in Palm Desert!“

“Great. Food love the drink.“

“Authentic Mexican Food 1 Tripas taco 1 asada taco 1 birria taco 1 asada fries BOMB!“

“Love that place, you walking in and you're you're welcomed, in maks me feel at home.“

“I had low expectations, but the fish taco was extraordinary. Generally, casino food court food (Pechanga, Caesar's Palace, Venetian) is mediocre at best. I ordered a fish taco. The fish was not battered and deep fried. No ... pan fried and not overcooked as is often the base. Well presented as well.“

“Wow wow wow! Stumbled on this taco joint a couple of nights ago on Door Dash late night. And much to our surprise it was only a few minutes down the road so we jumped in the car and made our way to this unassuming taco truck. The gal was so sweet and helpful with making choices and recommendations for me. Walked away with 7 tacos to share, and they were all so bomb that I came back to order more the next night.Will make this stop every time I visit Palm Springs. And make sure you try all the sauces/salsas. They are all delicious. Particularly the second hottest red salsa and the creamy green cilantro.We ordered the kimchi, wasabi, grilled shrimp and chimichurri tacos. Plus some asada and pastor street tacos. All would recommend! Thank you for being so awesome and nice!

Parking: Loads of parking.“

“This place is bomb and highly recommended“
