48 Best Mexican Restaurants in Pomona

“We were visiting from out of town (Sacramento and Italy) and I picked this restaurant because I knew at least one person of our group was vegan/vegetarian and the reviews were great. It’s not a posh place and we were a bit nervous when we arrived wondering if I had made the right choice. But they treated us well and the food outshone the interior decor and paper plates. Even the meat eaters were satisfied and one person in our group said the margaritas were the best he’d ever had and strong. My dish was so fresh and delicious.
We left happy and content. Thank you to the team there!“

“Everything was sooooooooo good!!! Little family owned restaurant!! The chips and salsa were some of the best I’ve had!!! Thick and crunchy chips! And the salsa was so flavorful and fresh!! Had a quesabirria taco and shredded beef enchiladas with green sauce!! Absolutely “

“Every now and then I like to visit this place to get something to eat.
The food here has been amazing ever since I discovered the restaurant by a relative who brought others and I here.
Personally I think the tacos de asada really stand out from the rest of the other spots that I have tried around the area.“

Definitely, will recommend getting the burritos there.
Keep it up! Taquería el sol.“

“The food, service and staff are amazing. We absolutely love Cachanilla's.“

“Everything was as expected. The restaurant is an extension of the Mobile Gas station and serves fresh ready made burritos, tacos, fries and nachos. The meat is a little bland but when you add the salsa you get more flavor out of it. Good prices, but I don’t see anyone going there unless you’re local or happen to be passing by.“

“They are going to try the new flavor that took them back to their childhood, when they asked their parents for their hamburgers.“

“Service was great and food taste so good still after all these years. This was my dad’s favorite place to eat when we are kids. He passed last year so we ate here Rosa him his honor.“

The employees here already always nice and welcoming. My go to spot whenever I’m in the area. Don’t miss out and come get some of the best tacos!“

“Lily taco is one of the best Mexican restaurants in pomona! But I recently noticed without them asking. They've been tipping themselves 20+ $, which answered my question to why I've been paying 45 to 50 for just two burritos like that's not right.“

“Sometimes, they are randomly closed. However, when they are open their food is fresh and very good. Their chicken is always fresh and hot. Everyone in my family loves their beans. The tortilla game is week but the fresh made salsa makes up for it.

Parking: Gated parking lot“

“Me gustó muy buen servicio y el pollo muy buen sabor“

“Buen servicio, variedad de platillos de comida deliciosos. Lo recomiendo!!“

“Language barrier but not a big deal. No fountain drinks available. No ice tea available and if you want soup it goes fast! But that's because it's really good! They are very pricey at times but it can be worth it. Example: The bean and cheese burrito is really good but it's over priced for such small burrito.“

“Today I think the menudo was not there as always, it had a strong smell of stench. And the medium brown broth may not clean the meat very well. And the smell stands out. We have consumed it very often and always wonderfully, but today, Saturday, it was not the same. I make the comment so that they continue in the same line as before.Good day“

“If it's about washing... Excellent service... Everything is very clean and they always help when something happens with the washing machines or dryers... Very pleasant attention from the people who sell the snacks... And even cakes...) everything is super delicious... And boy does it go down very well when you're waiting for them to finish washing...“

“Ordered the Carne Asada fries, first bite and I knew these would be the best in the area. The fries are very tasty, and loaded up very well.

The atmosphere is very chill, and everything is clean and comfortable. The sauces are self serve. Great place“

“I had a wonderful experience here.

We got menudo, a mulita, and aguas frescas.

The menudo was very good,
it came with a lot of toppings and they were all very fresh, the tripe was soft and the broth was very flavorful.

My mulita was AMAZING.
the beef was perfectly cooked and so juicy, it was extremely flavorful and had the perfect bite with cheese,
I ended up adding some of the salsa roja that came with the menudo to my mulita, top tier.

They also gave us a stack of hot tortillas that were very fresh,
they were so hot and they had the best chew to them, perfect thickness to me, I loved them.

Our aguas frescas were good, I got Jamaica and my auntie got pepino y limón,

my jamaica was good,

and I'm not a good judge for pepino y limón but she liked it well.

The atmosphere was good with music on the TV

The service was great!! 👍 We had table service and they were super nice when we were figuring out what to order, they also have some nice herbs out front and I asked and they let me pick some ruda/rue. 🌿

10/10 recommend!!“

“One of the best places to order cakes and birria tacos. The sauce they give is spicy but exquisite. The place is small so the customer can see how the food is prepared. The place is clean and the employees are very friendly. They have delicious fresh waters, the guava one is my favorite!

At the front of the restaurant there are enough tables and chairs for customers.“

“Have visited location several occasions picking up customer orders

Quaint
Busy location
Clean
Pleasant staff
Indoor seating in patio area

Haven't ordered from their menu in a very long time.

Pre pandemic

However, I would say it is a good location to dine in or order from.

Parking: Parking is on the North side of property.

However, it is quite a small lot with limited space.

Street parking is also limited since the business is on the Southeast corner of Towne Avenue and Second Street and parking spaces are both commercial and residential“

“It's a nice place, I went a couple of times , not a lot of people inside, but that makes the place quiet and nice.

Parking: The parking lot is big, but there are more restaurants and different things too.

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“I'm not going to Tijuana for just some tacos only if I go out to las pulgas!best club in Tijuana“

“Love this place it's one of my favorite spots to eat in Pomona always fresh and friendly service! I get a variety of items here but my favorite to go to is the Al Pastor burrito Mexicano. The salsa roja pairs well with it. The tacos are great too.“

“Me encanto ese lugar👌 Mi amiga yuliss me invitó a desayunar 😊 Primero es un lugar muy limpio👌 Segundo me encantaron los chilaquiles .. el sazón que tiene es casero 👌 delicioso 😋 Y por último muy importante la calidez que tienen al atenderte son muy amables eso para mi es muy valioso y lo agradezco mucho😊👌 Lo super recomiendo 👌😊“

“As I was pumping gasoline, I noticed this establishment next to the gasoline station. I love Mexican food, but in particular from Oaxaca. I try different foods because sometimes I have a great appetite. I try the menudo, chorizo, and pambazo. The menudo was average, way better than some places around the area. The quality of the food was tasty and above average. I have tried Oaxacan food at other restaurants, and to be honest, this place did not disappoint. The service is great, the servers are attentive and nice, but most of all the food waiting time was not as long. I will definitely come back again to try other dishes.“

“This place just changed the name used to be called Emilio. The services was great, and the pupusa were very delicious. Prices were decent. I like the painting they have done to the walls of all the famous artists.

Kid-friendliness: It’s kid friendly.“

“I went there for Dueling Pianos and Dueling Burlesque and it was an amazing experience. The food was delicious and the drinks were strong. the Pianist was so funny and will recommend it to friends. The venue has easy parking and the service was fantastic. they have several rooms that are available for weddings and private events. I highly recommend this venue in Pomona“

“The food is amazing. The carne asada is very soft and bursting with flavor. My friend got the chicken and was very pleased. I also had the pork belly mulita, which left me wanting more. Great and authentic Mexican food. However, the atmosphere was kinda sad. However, the food was so good. I'll continue to eat there regardless. Hope you enjoy.

Kid-friendliness: They also serve donuts.“

“Needed a quick bite in between appointments and Taqueria El Jefe served my needs. I had their carne asada tacos and they were delicious! Very reminiscent of street tacos down to the sliced radishes. Good size portion and you can’t beat the prize. They earned a return visit!“

“Great place to eat Mexican food…freshly made to order! Family business…very friendly staff!

Parking: Corner of Garey and Olive

Kid-friendliness: Items can be ordered ala carte

“Kitchen. What really caught our eye was the sound of music and flashing lights. We went in, were greeted, and sat at the bar.

We got down with some delicious drinks and complementary chips & salsa. We ordered the fajita plate which included shrimp, steak and chicken. It was big enough for the two of us to share. The bartender was super nice and attentive. It was a fun night with great food, good vibes and great music.“

“The food is delicious and close to my house to get tacos nachos or Tijuana fries and people that is working is nice and friendly and I love Mexican food and everyone should come to Tijuana tacos is the best cause I been Tijuana Mexico and I love it the place“

“What great fish tacos! This restaurant is becoming one of our favorites for Taco Tuesday with their great deals! The fish tacos we have been getting are the fried fish kind, and they are so tasty! The tacos are filled with veggies and the sauce on top adds a great zing to it. The tacos as a whole are just plain delicious. Everyone should give them a shot; they have great fish tacos!!“

“Simplemente delicioso y la atención perfecta 🤩“

“I've been to this place twice and both times the food has been excellent! I've ordered the carnitas quesadilla and a bacon breakfast burrito and I have to say that they both were some of the best I've had from anywhere. Not a great sit down atmosphere but service was fine, polite and quick. I recommend.“

“Been missing these delicious carne asada tacos 🌮! Came back to visit all the way from Florida Best tacos!“
