36 Best Mexican Restaurants near Oxford

“This was such a cute place!! The food was absolutely fantastic! The green sauce is so good I would swim in it!!! Just so you all know it's a BYOB. I don't know if a fee for anything having to do with the BYOB. But the food is definitely good price, great portions, and guacamole is delicious!“

“we got two entrees and an app. the chips were forgotten and there was a wait but very understandable with being grand opening around dinner time hours. birria was phenomenal IMO. Queso was very smooth with a nice spice . the pineapple salsa was very tasty. a lot of promise with this company . would def order again“

“Food is great. Service needs to improve. My friends and I were there for dinner. It took almost 30 minutes to order and get a drink. Then I asked for our soup prior to the meal. Each of our meals came out separately, like we were three different orders, so we really did not eat together. The soups finally came out at the end and when I told the girl we did not want the soups, she said we couldn’t change it and we had to pay for it because we ordered it. Then when we brought this to the managers attention, they said well we’ll give you five dollars off the bill. The other thing I didn’t like was they added 15% tip in. I should decide how much a tip is going to be depending on how good the service and how fast things are. Places that add a tip to the Bill basically are telling you they don’t care how bad the service was you’re still going to give them a tip. I disagree with that.“

“I ordered food for my kid’s birthday over the weekend! Eva was particularly helpful in ordering and when I received my order! Thank you so much, my family loved your food!!!“

“We ordered and picked up. We had ordered from them years ago and were not that impressed. We'd heard that they had stepped up their game and decided to give it a try. Ordered nachos and my husband ordered a combo platter. I thought it was pretty good! Still not as good as Mexican food in the Bronx, but we'll definitely order from them again.“

“Had breakfast here today for the first time. The guys were very friendly and the food was excellent. I will be back!“

“love very authentic!!😍“

“Easily the best Mexican place in town. I've been coming here for years and the quality of the food and the service has never faltered, even during the pandemic. The staff are incredibly nice and work hard to make sure you have a great time. Food is delicious and authentic for the price. Great place for parties and large groups as well, for any occasion! Highly recommend if you're in the mood for some good food

Parking: Go slow in the parking lot as it's usually busy around dinner time. The lines are hard to see so take your time finding a spot“

“Friendly, attentive host/waiter and great food. Will return.“

“Just ordered 8 burritos from here and I am so surprised they each weigh 1.5+ lbs!!! That's insane!!! The owner, Señor Maximo, was very kind and nice and gave me some free food and free cake! I was very surprised but very grateful! I know times are tough but it's the nice gestures and acts of kindness that are appreciated! I eat here every time I pass by Waterbury and the food is always excellent and very delicious! I love small and local restaurants like this! Thank you so much for the delicious and amazing food and wonderful service!!!

“It was excellent, the place is very cute and with very pleasant and efficient staff, the food was quite fast (I don't know if it was because I was distracted with my girlfriend) but I felt that it arrived moderately quickly. What I ate was salmon and it was tasty, they have good cooks. Thanks to Leidy for her attention, she was the one who served us from the beginning, a very kind and charismatic person.“

“I moved into the area recently and was recommended salsas 7 by a friend, they stated “order anything on the menu and it will probably be one of the best meals of your life”. I now have to see that he was right. I shared several different tacos, a bowl, the fries and chips with salsa. It all tasted great but the stand outs for me were the birria and al pastor tacos. The price was good for the quantity given and the service whether at the table or ordering station was great. Even if I one day move from the area I will continue to drive out and come here, it’s that good. Overall 5/5.“

“This is the best Mexican food I've had in both New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Connecticut. I usually travel a lot and frequently visit new places. This is a hidden gem in a small venue. Everything has excellent flavor, well seasoned, freshly made and the prices are unbeatable. Definitely a place to eat several times a week. I recommend them to anyone. A blessing to find such a place. Hoping that this place remains authentic and does not change. I got here thanks to a Review that said that this was Mexican food, not like the food trucks that are near the Mall. I totally agree with that comment.“

“A nice clean and cozy little place with a great bar and lots of high tables or dining area if you prefer. Great service. Friendly waitress who took the time to explain some of the menu. Everything was delicious and fresh.“

“This place is great, I’ve been close to 10 times now and have never been disappointed! My favorites so far are the land and sea quesadilla and the quesa birria. The tres leches is delicious as well.
The bad reviews they have are quite shocking to me because this is one of the tastiest and consistent places I’ve been to. I will continue to be a happy customer here!“

“absolutely delicious we had it in Ohio..... we need Laredo Taco Company in Buffalo, NY asap!!!“

“I've been eating here for years and the variety and quality of food is amazing and delicious ?. The staff is very friendly and the service is fast and the portions and price of food that this place gives you is awesome you can't go wrong eating here . If I could give more than 5 stars I would .“

“Friendly & Polite Staff. The food is fresh and tasty. Prices are low and fair. The plate in the video is a Spicy Pork Longiza Quesadilla. Personally, I enjoyed the Chicken (Pollo) Quesadilla better.

I recently tried their Birris Taco, and the other reviewers were right. It's really good and well made. IMO, I would go so far as to say it tastes better than Los Garcia Birris Tacos (only the Birris Tacos, I still prefer LG Burritos). Overall, I've become a regular. Enjoy.“

“We celebrated my husband's 50th birthday here. The food and staff were fabulous!! Highly recommend Brady's 🥳“

“Just had the best Philly steak sandwich ever.. Great food, great owner and sevice.. ENJOY!!“

“Ven comprueba y disfruta ☺️ muy buen. Ambiente y diversidad de comida latina y americana“

“affordable and delicious 10/10 😋“

“So we stopped there cause my friend was buying a car from someone and that's the parking lot they choose to meet. I've never even been to that part of CT before. I had the chicken quesadilla, OMG the chicken was seasoned and cooked amazingly. The tortilla was toasted perfectly (and it was huge) great overall meal. My friend had a couple different tacos which he said were amazing. Even our waiter was friendly, willing to give his preferences, he would check on us to make sure we were good. Haven't had good experiences for awhile now so this was a nice change. Hopefully I'll have a reason to visit that part of CT so I can stop there again. Definitely worth the time to check out.“

“The food is AMAZING!!! I love the variety and different tastes. I have no complaints about Bravo’s!!! Definitely recommend 10/10“

“The food is amazing! Always so fresh and delicious. One of our favorite places to order from. A+“
