Mexican Restaurants near Wethersfield

“Beautiful setting, great atmosphere! We went for Happy Hour today, Saturday 8/9/25... margaritas were perfect, my wife had the Chicken & Cheese Taquittos I had the Tuna Tartar Nachos and we shared Chips & Salsa. All was fresh & quite delicious! Isabella, our server, was great, friendly, prompt and on point! We highly recommend & will certainly return!“

“My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful meal here on a recent Thursday evening. We were greeted warmly, seated quickly, and served very well by the team at No Mames. Our drinks, appetizers, tacos, and desserts were all outstanding. We will return with friends!“

“I was trying to get home from a road trip and was tired of eating fast food. I needed a vegetable. But also, didn’t want to actually stop and eat food or find a grocery store. The people working here were ever so helpful and accommodating to my weird requests and enjoyable to talk to! The guy making the food even got me fresh lettuce when I explained I basically just wanted a bowl of lettuce with a side of chicken. The cashier wanted to make sure I didn’t get overcharged for my non-salad. Was the food better than any other Chipotle? No. It was not. But the service was top notch.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ LA CASA MANIA has the BEST birria tacos ever – honestly, the best tacos period!! I couldn’t leave back to MA without grabbing some to take home… but they didn’t make it that far. We ended up eating them in the car because they were just too good to resist! 🔥🌮“

“Good and customer service is very very good“

“Been going to Mexicali since they opened. Staff is fantastic and speedy. Always leave feeling like I ate to much. Highly recommend!“

“Very friendly service and great food!“

“Fun great food atmosphere is fun if you get a chance sit outside in the summertime with the lights on really fun and the drinks are absolutely delicious. Always friendly staff.!!“

“I love Baja’s the food is amazing! The atmosphere is loving and comfortable. The staff are always friendly and welcoming! I would recommend 10/10! I would love to see them more in the CT area. Preferably Bristol, CT or Southington, CT!“

“Amazing food great service very reasonable and the jalapeño tequila avocado margarita is the best!“

“An absolute gem.

We were greeted, seated, and served in short order, and the food was lovely. A chamming mix of culture and cuisine, classic diner style meets authentic Mexican dishes. A quiet place to eat and Cisco himself stopped by to check in after our meal and introduce himself, even treating myself and my guest to a churro on the house - if that makes my biased, guilty!

I hope to return next time I'm in the area“

“I wanted Pho and my mom wanted a burrito bowl. Well she got what she wanted and I got something to never expected, a Phorrito! Pho ingredients in a burrito. And it was pretty amazing!“

“Elegant food with a very festive space! Home cooked style foods with my personal request salad/ chutney. Some mild mishaps that simply reminded me of foreign cultural blips ( fun,fun). By the time we (2) were done 100$ ... didn't get pics of dessert yet worth my nickle!“

“The only Mexican restaurant I like in CT, and I've tried a few. They serve authentic, delicious Mexican food.“

“If you’re looking for Mexican food on the Berlin Turnpike in Newington, you have choices. If you want to sip margaritas out of a fish bowl and guacamole made table side then Puerto Vallarta and Azteca might be for you. If you want fast food from chain restaurants then there’s Chipotle and Moe’s. But if you’re looking for the best authentic Mexican fare the Berlin Turnpike has to offer, look no further the Salsa 4 Taqueria! It’s a hole in wall that you would drive by if you weren’t looking for it. I had beef empanadas, a trio of tacos, el pastor, pork belly, and deep fried shrimp. I’ve never been to Mexico but I imagine this is what I would get on the streets there. Be prepared to wait for your food. Empanadas are made to order and the corn taco shells are pressed and cooked to order with a choice of soft or crunchy! The el pastor was very flavorful, pork belly with a nice char on the outside melts in your mouth, the batter fried shrimp were large and delicious, shredded beef in the empanadas was braised to perfection! Sorry for the lack of pictures, I dug in before it crossed my mind. Yes, it’s that good!“

“You need to try french fries at Baja's restaurant. Very good taste and crispy.“

“Love it. Super attentive staff without being annoying. Great guacamole and salsa. Blackened haddock with pineapple and grilled vegetables was excellent.“

“Everyone needs to try the Skillet Burrito ASAP! It’s new on the menu, all I needed to see in the description was SMOTHERED IN QUESO lol it was the most delicious burrito I have ever eaten. I will be ordering it every time I go there now. I hope enough people review it so they keep it on the menu! You should try it, you will not be disappointed!“

“Hands down the best Mexican food I have had in CT. My husband and I ordered the elote( off the Cobb) and the steak burrito. Everything was was seasoned to perfection and tasted made to order. Bonus: the customer service was superb. Can’t wait to visit again!“

“Very good authentic tasting Mexican food. Have always had good meals for the whole family.“

“I can't say what I like best, because it is all delicious. I usually get the enchiladas huertenas because I can't decide if the mole, red sauce, or green sauce is better; they are all equally wonderful. So are their tender, flavorful tamales. even their chips & salsa are a cut above. Pickup during the pandemic is fast and painless, which we appreciate.“

“Went here with my girlfriend. Food and service was exceptional, best I’ve been at. Thank you Puerto Vallarta.“

“I highly recommend this place!! Staff is great & the food is beyond amazing.“

“Great food and atmosphere. Will be back very soon!“

“My husband and I were looking for places to eat and we stumbled to this lovely place. Words are not enough to describe how great of experience and great food this establishment have! The staff is super lovely and helpful, and the food taste like straight up heaven! Definitely coming back again!!“

“This is a #1 must visit if you’re in the hartford connecticut area. This is my go too spot for breakfast for work employees and my every Sunday breakfast date with my granddaughter.You can’t go wrong with American & Mexican Diner💯💯💯🙏🙏🙏“

“Our waitress was awesome and the food was too much and very good“

“The whole experience was great the food /drinks , our server was absolutely amazing“

“Isabelle & Olivia facilitated a friendly & enjoyable atmosphere right when we walked in. The restaurant was clean, well-lit, and appropriately staffed with well-trained, knowledgeable, dependable, and hard-working people. We both selected salads with fresh ingredients. The grilled chicken & baja chicken were both good. The guac was fresh. The included chips & salsa were a bonus. Love this place - prefer to Chipotle which does not have fresh cilantro as an option and does not ensure the restaurant is clean & well-managed. The pico de gallo was low, but there was just enough for my salad. I look forward to eating here again.“

“We love this place! Authentic Mexican food and restaurant. People usually order out so we love coming here and enjoying the place with our daughter who LOVES the food. the Young lady who owns/cooks is very nice to our family. We just love good Mexican food!“

“This young man Andrew is amazing, truly Amazing. I was pleased with his food, charm, mannerism and his staff. The food was excellent. He sold over 2500 empanadas today. The eat in diners couldn’t stop praising his dishes. The way he works with his customers is amazing. My hat off to him and his staff. Keep up the good work, Andrew. My family will be back for more. Five Stars“

“Great spot for fresh and flavorful Mexican food! The ingredients taste high quality, and everything is well-prepared. The staff is super friendly and welcoming, making the experience even better. Definitely a go-to place for a quick and delicious meal!“

“Excellent food, innovative menu, & very reasonable prices. Also the "Taqueria" setup where you are prompted to build your own. Yeah like Moe's & Chipotle but this place is a million times better & a genuine family owned hard working small busuness.“

“1. Service was professional tacos were the best i've ever had in twenty years.Would I recommend this restaurant!!!! Absolutely. One hundred percent way better than the new haven trucks way better than any restaurant imitation mexican food!!! If you come here, not only are their prices reasonable, but try everything on the menu. It's phenomenal in the food taste very authentically quality.
5 stars, they deserve, bring your whole
family here. You will be very happy!!!!!!
2. If there was only one recommendation I would give for that extra star is to add more seasoning to your food. In any other case, your food is still the best that i've ever had mexican!!!!“

“My current top hidden gem for amazing and authentic Mexican food. Hidden in La plaza del Mercado, this spot has the most amazing tripe soup, where the tripe was properly cleaned, no funky taste/smell, cooked perfectly tender. Great caldo de res as well, the meat was tender and had a strong beef flavor, soup was light and refreshing and the veggies provided a nice natural sweetness and the squash was incredible inside. Their tacos are great as well and their pricing is a bargain and their portions are quite good.“

“THE FOOD IS SOOOOO GOOD OMMMMMG“

“Absolutely love this place best Birria I've had 💯👏🏽“

“The best Mexican food CT“

“If you’re craving delicious, authentic Mexican food, look no further than Fuego Picante! This spot truly stands out, and their Birria Quesadilla is hands down the best I’ve ever had. The meat is perfectly seasoned, tender, and juicy, paired with just the right amount of cheese and crispiness in every bite. It’s absolutely mouthwatering! The Shrimp Quesadilla and the Birria Mulitas are also pictured which are just as delectable.

The customer service here is top-notch – the staff is always friendly, welcoming, and eager to make sure your experience is fantastic. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers and take pride in their food.

One of my favorite things about Fuego Picante is that their food is always hot and fresh. Every dish I’ve had is served with care, and you can taste the difference in quality.

I also love that they post their hours on Instagram every day, which makes it super easy to know when they’re open. It’s a great little touch that shows they truly care about their customers staying informed.

Overall, Fuego Picante is a must-visit for anyone looking for flavorful, fresh Mexican food with amazing service. You won’t regret it!“

“Great place! Fun atmosphere, good service and fantastic food. Good sized portions. We over-ordered and had to take so much home. We had the giant pretzel and nachos. Shrimp tacos, quesadillas and burrito. Everything was wonderful! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“Muy buen sevicion buena comida 🥘 y muy buen postre 🍨 hay todo“

“Just moved here and FB recommended this place off prior places I’ve visited in Arizona. I thought it was going to be a stand alone restaurant but it’s in this huge dining hall. The place is incredible. Literally a mix of everything for every walk of life and I highly recommend going down there just for that. Back to Burrito Loko. I had the Birria Tacos and they’re the best ive had in the area. My wife is super picky but said the steak burrito was good too, which says a lot honestly. We’ll be back, likely multiple times a week as there’s just a ton of great company there.“
