19 Best Mexican Restaurants in Ukiah

“Food is delicious. The mulitas and California Burrito me and the homie get are always good, tasty and worth it. Definitely Good Quality of food and amount is definitely worth the price.

The service is amazing as well. Owner is friendly and engage with customers.

Atmosphere is chill. Outside seating but it's always good.“

“Ukiah has a lot of options for Mexican food—nothing stellar. So I thought what the heck let’s try this cute clean spot by the post office. I had a busy day and had to grab lunch on the go. We were completely blown away by the service and food. Amazing food—-the real deal Mexican. Great hospitality-the owner was so kind!! We will be back Mary. Muchas gracias. Highly recommend the burritos and the tacos !!“

“Name changed from “Jonny’s” to El Baho Fino”. Also some of the attached photos form previous reviews is from a place across the street from this restaurant (showing a redwood tree and building)

I stopped by this taco shop and ordered four tacos—two asada and two al pastor. The asada tacos were solid, with flavorful meat topped with fresh onions, cilantro, and green salsa. They had a nice char, though they were a bit oily. Still, I enjoyed them overall.

The al pastor tacos were disappointing—the meat was dry, bland, and notably missing pineapple, which is usually a key ingredient in traditional al pastor. Like the asada, they were topped with onion, cilantro, and salsa, but just didn’t hit the mark flavor-wise.

The tortillas had a decent chew, but didn’t seem homemade—they were very uniform, which made them feel store-bought. The plate came with grilled onions, radish slices, and limes, which were a nice touch. I wished I could have gotten a grilled jalapeño—I saw them in other reviews and was hoping it came standard, but no luck this time.

Pricing was a bit steep at $16 for four tacos, with no sides or drinks included. Definitely more in line with L.A. taco stand pricing, which feels high for what was offered. That said, they do have Taco Wednesdays for $2/taco, which seems like a much better value and may be the best day to go.

The guy wearing a blue car wash polo who took my order and made the food was incredibly kind and welcoming. He was fast, attentive, and seemed to take pride in his work, which made the experience more enjoyable.

Seating is limited to three small outdoor tables near the ordering window, shaded by a tree. It’s a casual setup, but it can get a bit loud due to nearby street traffic.

Overall, a mixed experience: friendly service and decent asada, but the al pastor and pricing didn’t live up to expectations. I might return on a Wednesday to give it another shot—hopefully with a grilled jalapeño next time.“

“Got here at 9:30am and there were already 4-5 big tables having margaritas and beer. Well, then I will join too! Joanna was our server, and she was awesome. She and her counterparts were very attention. If I just glanced their way for a second, one of them would come over to ask if I needed anything.

Food is really good, reasonably priced and good fresh quality.

Parking looked easy, although we walked over from a nearby hotel. I think I had a mango or peach margarita, and it was GOOD.

Would definitely come back again.“

“Great Molcajete, awesome Margaritas.!“

“Where to go for Mexican food? After checking numerous reviews we decided on El Azteca and were not disappointed. Excellent food. 6/8/2024.“

“Super Taco is always reliable. The food is fresh, portions are generous, and everything I’ve tried has been very good. The staff is friendly and quick, even during busy hours. It’s an easy choice when I want something filling and well-made. A place I keep coming back to.“

“Really great little Mexican food restaurant that we stopped at on our way north. It is difficult to find decent Mexican food this far up CA and most of the places I get recommended never scratch the itch since SoCal Mexican food is always on another level. We got fish, shrimp, and carne asada tacos and all were really good. They had a really big menu so seems like they got something for everyone. Servers were incredibly nice. Will definitely be back if I’m in town :)“

“This was the best food I’ve ever had in my entire life! I will for sure be back for more! Awesome service and amazing food! Delicious!!!“

“I’m so obsessed with these snow cones that I’ll come up with any excuse to go to Costco in Ukiah, an hour from home, just so I can grab one. I order the exact same flavor every time. At this point, I’ve had enough of them to say with absolute certainty: when the older man makes it, it’s the best snow cone on earth. Perfect texture. Perky. Icy. Heaven.

But when the younger woman makes it, it turns out like snow cone soup. Very wet, no structure, just… wet slush. I’m assuming the snow all comes from the same machine, so I have no idea how his are so firm and refreshing while hers are so soupy.

The flavor’s great either way, so it’s still a treat, but for me it really throws the whole texture off and I’m bummed. Usually I go alone, so it’s not a big deal if it’s a “meh” day. But one time I hyped these up like crazy and brought my teenager along. She handed us two cups of soup, and I had to convince him I wasn’t lying about how amazing they usually are.

Still obsessed. Just hoping I catch the right snow cone artist next time.“

“Great food, great service every time!“

“Love there wet burritos, none better!“

“While everyone is going to shots because of it’s old family name, we opted to go around the corner to a little Mexican food Café restaurant where the food is absolutely I have never had Mexican food so delicious and servings are just gorgeous a little bit more than what I can eat And my husband and I both have always enjoyed this solo place. Check it out.
An old style original spicy taco with vegetarian tostada my husband enjoys his vegetarian burrito on top of the chips and salsa All-time favorite“

“I’m from SoCal where street tacos are prime no matter where you go. Moved out here and was craving them as they are a lot harder to come by then in SoCal where they’re on every corner. Lalo’s filled that gap and are the best tacos I’ve had in Northern California. Definitely a must stop!!“

“This was the best tasting, cleanest at most comfortable to be in chipotle that I ever visited. Also, the staff was so incredibly friendly that they really made my day. If I’m ever back, I sure will visit again.

Thank you so much and greetings from Germany! :)“

“Just out boppin around with Hobo John and his little bed roll, OneEyed Mary, and she blasts out something about this joint called Lalo's and how good the chicken tacos are. Well, I can never just walk by a Mexican restaurant or taco truck without at least trying 3 tacos! I see it as a civic responsibility to help the small family owned businesses succeed.
And you know what...OneEyed Mary was right..those chicken tacos were Amazing! 5 stars ☆☆☆☆☆“

“I've been here before for breakfast burritos which were also good, but came in today for tacos. The staff were super sweet and accommodating. The variety of fresh salsa is freaking incredible, every single one was good. The crunchy tacos hit the spot and the meats were soft and succulent. Absolutely will be back again.“

“Large menu , lots to choose from, lots of room and friendly staff“
