50 Best Mexican Restaurants in Oceanside

“Amazing!! I'm not a big fan of Mexican food, but this place is the best. Everything is made fresh. The beans are awesome. I had the Pastor Burrito, it was so good. The meat was so tasty. Drinks was delicious too!! Can't wait to go back!“

“Ate here for the first time last evening after driving past it many times up and down Oceanside Blvd. All I can say is "Incredible!!" We parked our car, walked into the grass carpeted area and felt like we were no longer on Oceanside Blvd. The area they have set up with tables, fame heaters and a large screen TV is great. It is immaculate, and actually cleaner than a lot of local restaurants I've been in. The young lady who helped us since it was our first time, was excellent. She was making sure the condiment area was supper clean, I could have eaten off of it, lol. She had a great smile and was very welcoming as she helped us with answering our questions about the menu. The food was excellent, and the portions were great. Pricing was excellent and we will definitely be back. Again, both the area and truck are immaculate and the cleanest I've ever seen. Thank you, Gaby's Tacos, for an excellent "truck" dining experience!! If you have not stopped but keep wondering about it, give it a chance and support a local business.“

“The nicest people with the best food!!“

“This spot hits home for me as this was always a go to spot for when I was in the military. After visiting again after 20 plus years it's still the taste amazing and the food is amazing and you will not leave hungry from this place thar fir sure. I had the Carne Asada burrito with fresh pico..?My gf had the shrimp and steak burrito with rice and beans it too was amazing.“

“Absolutely, without a doubt, the best beach bar/cafe in Southern California! Irresistible Mexican fare at price that's hardly believable. Fast, friendly bartenders. Lots of regular patrons who have also grown to love the place and will make you feel right at home (I call it my "Cheers" bar) and an outdoor dining area that just oozes beach-town charm. Always have a good time, there.“

“Food is delicious, service is great“

“Tostada and Chimichanga are fire! They went above and beyond to accommodate a small mistake that was made on a previous visit. Really appreciate that! Classy joint.“

“Excelente servicio y la comida riquisima! Con el auténtico sabor mexicano 100%, sirven una porción muy grande! Y todo muy limpio!“

“Great food, pleasant atmosphere and good 👍 service“

“Attentive server. Awesome food, hot and just enough of it. Moderatly loud, was able to have conversations with the people seated next to me, any farther away was very hard. Salsa had a nice kick, with short legs, won't burn out your taste buds.“

“Best Mexican restaurant in Oceanside!!🇲🇽“

“The food is always fresh, flavorful, and made to order. Their al pastor and carne asada tacos are best in the city. The salsas pack a punch, especially the green one . Service is quick and friendly, and the prices are super reasonable. Whether you’re grabbing lunch or stopping by for late-night eats, Don Paco never disappoints. Highly recommend!“

“Perfect rolled tacos with all the fixings done just right. Not too crispy, not too soft. Just right!Also ordered their delicious potatoe tacos ? ?

Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options available. Potatoe tacos ? and veggie burrito ? as well as the bean & cheese if ya feel like pushing it as a Veggie-saurus ?“

“I recommend the carne asada burrito the next burrito the chingon burrito and then the carne asada nachos everything was delicious always you need to go there“

“Breakfast lunch and dinner in one meal“

“Best fish tacos ever😍!!! Thank y’all for the great service . Simplemente fantástico 🤩.“

“We found this place just driving down the road, we are visiting from Arizona and my kids wanted birria tacos, so we stopped in as it didnt look to busy. Right time right place, food was amazing, prices were average from what we have seen around. Service was friendly and our order was made fresh right then and there. Will be coming back several times while here!! Awsome place!“

“everything was great!!! had rolled tacos and cheese enchiladas. their chips are great too“

“What an amazing place to eat, fresh food and great service. Shout out to Mike, what an amazing gentleman always checking up on customers and making sure everything is top notch. Best food in the county.“

“wow!! great food, great experience! order inside and then go outside and watch them cook it fresh!!!“

“Good food. Pleasant host. Plenty of space. It’s good to have a restaurant in this area. Parking, dine in or carry out. My first time I only had a burrito because it was almost time to close the kitchen. But now that I’ve been there I will definitely be going back.“

“Great food! Nice chill atmosphere! Very nice cashier lady!
The only negative side is that looks like we were overcharged (which noticed only back home). 1 burrito, 2 tacos, chips, super small rice & beans = approx $43.
Besides that - it was very tasty & nice. Will go there again 👍“

“Went for friends birthday and overall good experience, good food, served within 10min of order, our server cymon was very attentive to our food order and drinks were cleaned and served, joined on the birthday song for my friend making the experience very pleasant and enjoyable.“

“Omg where do I start I started seeing you guys post about opening in Oceanside since day 1 when you guys were seeing the place then starting to get everything together ; the mural, and then when you guys finally opened I told my husband there gonna open a Mexican restaurant in Oceanside that sells Guadalajara style food we were both so excited because my husband is from guanatos city baby!!! We finally got the chance to try the food in October of 2021; let me just tell you that the most excited I was about was to try the carne en su jugo and when I tried it I fell in love again because that is my favorite Guadalajara plate; it was so good I finished it all ; also tried the birria tacos omg those were so good too I really recommend this place; when we ate here they gave us a free jericalla and it was also so good!! I will definitely come back to this place every time I go to California it's gonna be our favorite place to eat in Oceanside. I was born in Oceanside so I was also excited to go back again to where I was born!!! You guys really have good customer service and really great food and also the lady at the front gave us some free stickers I think she's the owner but I'm not sure but we put those on my husbands truck in Alaska. Anyways I love guanatos city baby and happy 1st year anniversary!!“

“very clean location inside very good food excellent people working there running it it's very polite kind the menudo was great Chicago the wrestlers great the ceviche was delicious well let me say should I give a thumbs up and a 10 5 Star great restaurant.“

“love this place, amazing birria tacos! very friendly staff as well“

“I think I told my waitress thank you about 20x's as she kept coming to our table asking if we needed anything, how we were doing, ect. Very attentive. Carolina was amazing and helpful.

Food was delicious and good quality :)

Outside building doesn't do the food justice - give it a try.“

“My girlfriend and I have been coming here for a few months now. They are always eager to greet us and even remember our drink orders.( Ismail is our favorite! ) bartender, The food is good , reasonably priced . One of the most important things for me when I choose to go out and spend my money is service and consistency. This place has both. You will find us here on a regular basis .“

“Family owned and operated. Classic family recipes from central Mexico with a So Cal flare. Homemade tortilla chips, salsa and sauces! Support our local restaurants!!! You will be happy you did!!“

“Just about the Best dang carne asada burrito I've ever eaten. I went here 4x in a week last time i was in SD.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING chili Verde carnitas plate. I have never had anything THIS good. EVER.

I come here straight from the airport when i land in San Diego. This is the BEST location.

Awesome staff. Fast service. I spoke with a nephew of the owner here and he was very appreciative of my praise and very receptive to feedback. There's nothing negative about my experience here, at all. It's simply an amazing establishment.“

“They've made some changes when you visit Deiberto's. Their menu is now a giant TV screen and it looks a little fresher in the dining area, but the best part is the food. We ordered a carne asada burrito and it was excellent. It tastes like the ingredients they are using are of better quality. This wasn't just one time, we have been back several times and it has been consistent each time. They have a simple salsa bar that is all business with four to choose from. If you like spicy, there are three excellent choices. If you'd rather have something mild, their green sauce is really good too. We've been going here for years and tried a lot of the menu items, but we look forward to trying some of them again. Great job Deiberto's!“

“Muy rica comida, nunca e salido decepcionada de esté restaurante, ademas el dueño muy atento y humilde eso aprecio demasiado siempre disfruto estar aqui“

“great beach side place. Mexican treats.“

“My favorite Mexican fast food“

“So good. I love Moe's and all the other resturants, the place is clean, there's plenty of options, and the food is great. Johnny Rockets needs a bit of cleaning but it's pretty good. Moe's southwest grill is great and fresh texmex food, tacos, burritos, wraps, and all of the food comes with free nachos and queso or guac. Reccomend tacos.“

“Great food! Salsa is excellent.“

“I haven’t even eaten my food yet, but the people aren’t working in here were so good and so kind and I’m not used to that from fast, casual or fast food places. I took a picture because I was too embarrassed ask their names. There was also a Latina lady cooking I couldn’t get pictured. Whoever owns this business please know that you have three people who are working so hard. It was dead when I walked in and they were cleaning and making sure that everything was clean and immediately greeted me.. I appreciate good workers!“

“Conpan̈Eros, the cashiers are not rude, it depends on how you order your order, your tickets, they have someone who will give you a drag, not because they have a voice. If you know how to blar, don't put more. Ai, cameras, I know who you are.“

“Very Friendly Nice customer service“

“Breakfast lunch and dinner in one meal“

“Great food! The workers were polite and the atmosphere was laid back.“

“I just love the foods they make at this homemade food place ?. It has vegetarian foods, as well as foods for kids. Their tacos are THE BESTT!!! DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!!! ??A reminder that this place is ONLY DELIVERY.

Vegetarian options: There's a variety of foods that are made with vegetables (that are super delicious) like the nopalas salad that doesn't include meat, chicken, beef.

Kid-friendliness: There are different types of foods for kids, like quesadillas, rice and beans, non-chile foods, including more!“

“This Valerie’s Taco Shop is always a solid stop when I’m in SoCal. The carne asada burritos are packed with flavor, and the shrimp ceviche is fresh and hits every time. Service is quick, portions are generous, and it’s one of those reliable spots you can always count on. Definitely a must-visit when you’re in the area.“

“les recomiendo los tacos estilo tijuana los jugos 100 frutas 😃“

“Delicious blackened mahi mahi tacos!“

“I stopped in for a quick lunch and enjoyed three large cabeza tacos for about $15 out the door. The food was quick, the restaurant clean, and the service friendly.

The cabeza was good and tasted fresh. The tortillas were average and and the red salsa was above average (I tried both verde and roja).

I’d rate the food here as average for the area, but still good. This is a decent spot to stop in for a quick bite, or a breakfast burrito. This is a fast food style authentic Mexican taco/burrito spot. If that’s what you are looking for, it’s a good place to stop in. You won’t get the best tacos ever, but sometimes you just need a quick taco or burrito that is decent at an affordable price.“

“I have long been coming here for years . . . once last year, once the year before and once the year before that, etc. They have my all-time favorite Pollo Asado burrito. It is a fajita-styled burrito and is excellent and rather large. They also have great carrots and salsas too.

That's just about all I ever get. Maybe a quesadilla too.

Super friendly staff and speedy too.

Stop by here "too" .

Dicks“
