22 Best Mexican Restaurants in San Rafael

“I came with my family here, very clean place, clean restroom, clean everything, good food. Fast service, but please ladies from the front (customer service) smile, you take care of the customer like robots, next, thank you , next, thank you next. I was looking at every single person that was receiving their orders to make sure that chips are given to some odres or to every order. We order two burritos, one pupusa and twelve tacos. We did not received chips at all. I saw people that purchase tacos , receiving their chips, this wasn’t my case. No one gave us our chips😟“

“Best Mexican restaurant I’ve been to so far in the US.“

“Seriously, best burrito in North Marin. Repeating this post because 1) Facebook asked me to write a formal review and 2) it's too empty when I've gone and I want people to keep them in business!“

“Best Mexican food I've had in a long time!“

“Started going there in 1980 and have never stopped❤️🙏🏻♥️“

“I loved it. Great Mexican food. Miss this in Hawaii“

“The food was served Hot and Fresh and the serving was very generous! I ordered the Steak and Nopal and my girlfriend ordered the Tacos Birria. We chose to eat outside and they had Vicente Fernandez playing on the speaker, We both rate it 5 stars! Gracias ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Good carne asada burrito. Casual but clean place. Pleasant people. Price is fair.

Parking: Big parking lot. Plenty of available spaces.

Kid-friendliness: Fine for kids.

Wheelchair accessibility: Access looked very easy.“

“Wanted to try the quesabirria & birria tacos. We were not disappointed! Will go back and want to try the mole buffet on weekends“

“Todo está muy delicioso recomiendo las enchiladas de cangrejo el salmón ala parrilla y también los huevos rancheros las quesabirrias están muy buenas también sin contar que fin de seman tiene barbacoa de borrego con consomé y menudo“

“Glad to have found this restaurant. Since moving to San Rafael, I’ve been missing and looking for authentic Mexican food. The other Mexican restaurants I’ve tried in San Rafael don’t compare to this restaurant. Fast and friendly service. Clean interior with cheerful decoration and atmosphere. Finally, the food is well seasoned and flavorful. Definitely hits the spot!“

“La mejor cochinita que he probado, unos ricos panuchos de Cochinita“

“The best in the neighborhood! Affordable, fresh, delicious Mexican food. The tacos are great and the seafood dishes are awesome. Highly recommended.“

“I lived close by and dropped in one day to check out the eats. The Chile Colorado peaked my interest, and it was like "Heaven"! . So pretty much every time since, the friendly staff would remember me and my passion for it. They'd see me walk in the door and instantly know... Chile Colorado! :) ( pro tip- while you wait, walk over to the painfully slow Safeway next door , buy Jardine's ghost pepper salsa and add a generous portion on top)“

“Been eating at Celia's for over 30 years. It's been a few years, but went there recently and it was still awesome. The food has never changed, simple but delicious. And one thing the staff has worked there forever, they are friendly and always welcoming. 😁😋“

“I am Mexican and I know about our authentic flavors in Mexican food, here it is! The filling apart from which forms the texture and presentation of a good burrito for the one who prepares it. Cool and I love it, nothing unwraps and scatters when you take it to take a bite, at Taqueria Mi Familia even the burritos stand still like a tower, thank you...“

“HUGE plate of nachos ?. Was almost as big as my mom's ? ?????. The only thing I didn't like about the nachos were the chips, they were a little on the sweet side. Chicken fajitas were straight skibidi Ohio ??. The rice and beans are fantastic and would come again just for that!!

The interior of the restaurant is also kinda epic.

Parking: May get a little tight.“

“Had a deliciously flavorful dinner on the patio with my husband and 8 month old son on a Sunday evening. Immediately we were greated by friendly staff and seated outside. We used a highchair that was available which was appreciated since we wanted to have a meal all together with our 8 month old son. The service was amazing we got chips and salsa with our menus. I got a vegetarian tostada and my husband got cheese enchiladas. It was like magic how quick we got our meals. Everything was so delicious and my son finally got to sit and participate in our meal rather than watch us eat/hide what we are eating now that he's so interested in food! We gave him his first litte plate of refried beans, rice, and tastes of toppings. He was happy as a clam and slept better than he's ever slept before. Our server was interactive and kind with our little guy and being a mom that's a bonus when choosing a place to eat out. It was reasonably priced for how good the food is. We look forward to making this a new regular family dinner spot.“
