25 Best Mexican Restaurants in Wilmington

“Absolute best authentic tacos I’ve ever had. I go here once a week for our weekly out to dinner meal. The service is always fast and the food is fresh and delicious. Like nothing I’ve had around here before. The chips and salsa matter to me and these do not disappoint! If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Check them out if you want to find your new favorite taco spot.“

“The food is great. I have been here twice. I've seen this place many times when visiting Concord Mall but I assumed it was commercial Mexican food. I was sadly and regrettably mistaken. I've been to many Mexican restaurants in NCC and this place ranks in my top 5. I went during the day so maybe that's why the wait staff wasn't on top of our refills but I just asked her for 2 glasses at once which sort of solved my dilemma. Overall I definitely recommend this place if you're craving authentic flavors. See you all soon.“

“The burritos at this place are absolutely phenomenal! I can't get enough of them. The real standout, though, is the cook named Lev. His attention to detail and the way he crafts each burrito with care and precision is truly something to behold. Every bite is a burst of delicious flavors that are expertly combined thanks to Lev's incredible talent. I find myself coming back just to see what new creations Lev has in store. His skills truly elevate the dining experience to a whole new level. I can't recommend this place enough, and I owe it all to Lev's fantastic work!"“

“This place has exceptional Mexican food! Make sure to get the pambazo, the sopes, and the lamb consommé! The fries leave something to be desired so I recommend the rice beans or churro as a side! The tacos are also delicious and we dip everything in the consume. I am drooling typing this! The flan and the horchata are also delicious! If you order in person you can get all different meats for the sope and taco meals (each come with 3) if you haven't been here you are missing out!“

“Very chill atmosphere. The service by the time we sat til we left was superb. The margaritas were good! I ate all my food cause it was that good. I would definitely recommend. Not sure why we waited so long to try this place. Dylan ( hope I spelled it right) was great! Great recommendations and kept checking on us. Will be back and might actually ask for him next time cause he was awesome. Hard to find good service at restaurants and he didn't let us down.“

“The best Mexican restaurant in the area..The staff is amazing and food is always piping hot. Their menu is so simple and it’s very easy to order over the phone. The food always gets ready in 15-20 mins. It’s been my go to spot from last 1 year for a quick bite.Their chicken burrito is so damn good.“

“Tex Mex Burrito on Philadelphia Pike is by far our favorite eatery in the area. My family has been coming here for years. Every time we come in we are taken great care of. Last night we had my son's 2nd birthday party here and they went above and beyond for us. Will always recommend! Thank you to Fatima (GM) and her staff.“

“A truly intoxicating experience. Never have I felt more love and appreciation from such a viable and respectful establishment. From the moment I witnessed those women curate those burritos, I knew that my mere existence would forever be changed. For once in my life I was a fresh and toasty tortilla that subsequently would be filled with compassion in the form of a cheesy bean & chicken medley. I won’t stop until this place is granted a Michelin Star ⭐️ take a 3rd mortgage out on your home and use the proceeds to this place. Trust my words.“

“Bien bien bueno!! Las quesabirrias, los chiles rellenos! Y mi hijo comió los tacos de chorizo y carnitas. Bien bien bueno! Palomas y skinny margaritas! Enjoy! Por que nosotros si lo disfrutamos! Siéntanse afuera! Muy lindo patio! Nos tocó la Claudia y fue muy buena mesera! Nice Dinner!“

“The food is great the host is amazing I think her name was Fiorella the last couple times I've gone I haven't seen her around you guys need more employees like her she's polite and every welcoming 5 stars to her hope to see you guys“

“Food was good, went with 2 coworkers for lunch. Atmosphere... Very small place, very LOUD music, we couldn't hear each other. It has a small bar area inside the tiny dining area. I would go again for the food, but the loud music is definitely a deterrent for me on my lunch hour.“

“El Toro is a classic-looking Mexican restaurant inside, with colorful furnishings and cheerful decor that looks like it was transported straight from Mexico. The dining room wasn’t busy, but they were doing a lot of take out orders. We ordered off of the lunch menu, which had very reasonable prices. We expected smaller portions as a result, but they were generous servings. I had the chicken flautas and my husband got the steak fajitas. They were both excellent. Even the rice was great! Really delicious food and friendly service. Highly recommended!“

“We ordered food for 60 people via the Slice Life app from Taco House & Pizza for a work party and it was a huge hit. We had options for everyone and the flavor and quality of the food was great. The service is excellent - even accommodated a slightly earlier than planned delivery (and arrived RIGHT on time!) and added in a few extras with the big order. It's become a favorite of mine and several colleagues' since they opened up last year. Definitely try their Quesabirrias! You won't regret it.“

“I was so impressed with Cactus Cantina. The best Tex Mex food that I have ever had. Ordered the steak burrito which seemed assembled based on my taste: smothered in a delicious and slightly spicy green sauce, delicious refried beans and rice on the side, and a dollop of sour cream. The portion was tremendous and the price was a steal. Efficient service, clean, and nice ambiance. My strongest recommendation.“

“Went there for lunch and it was our first time visiting. Service was great, food was a little slow but worth the wait. The free chips they give you are a little thicker than most places and topped with refries beans and a white cheese sauce. My wife and I both ordered the Burrito Del Mar and they were large and stuffed with fish, shrimp, scallops, onions and peppers and smothered in a white cheese sauce. The burrito also can with a second full plate of rice, refried beans and salad. I could barely finish mine and my wife took half of hers home for dinner later. Great first experience and look forward to going back to try their tacos.“

“I’m not sure how they do it but the service is just as good as the authentic food they serve and the margaritas they keep pouring. We’ve been regulars here for years and will never go anywhere else for Mexican. We love sitting outside during the summer but the inside is equally as gorgeous.“

“Best Mexican authentic food around Delaware. Best tacos and fresh Mexican waters. The have weekend specials daily you know this place is banging when you walk in and every single seat is taken. Services are fast and people here are very respectable. I recommend to everyone when they ask where to go for tacos or Mexican food. Prices are so reasonable. I have a family of 4 we typically will spend from 30-40$ when we go. so worth it“

“Love this location, they are generous with portions, all ingredients are always available! Staff is always kind!I prefer to eat El Diablo over Chipotle any day!! Variety of ingredients and their amazing sauces (honey jalapeno and red pepper walnut are divine)“

“I went in there last week and got the carne asada burrito, and it was fantastic. As full as I was, I noticed they had fresh chicharones, so I grabbed some for later. That might be one of the smartest decisions I have made in some time. The food is excellent and the service was the same. Everyone was talkative and in a great mood I will be back soon“

“The best burritos ever! Anytime we’re ever passing through the area, stopping here is a must. If we’re within an hour or 2 of our trip route, we know we’re stopping in for amazing food and service at a fair price! We live in northern NJ, so this means anytime we’re heading to VA, or DC or anywhere near Baltimore or Philly, we’re getting some delicious burritos! ? highly recommended“

“We wanted Mexican food, and we walked in and ordered from Mr. Taco. The food was freshly made. The young men working there are very nice. We had a veggie burrito and BBQ chicken burrito. Both were fresh and delicious. We also had chips and salsa. The chips and our order were prepared while we waited. We definitely will be returning soon.“

“Food was decent. We had 20 folks and were allowed to mill about tables in our area which was great to socialize. Service was awesome considering our numbers. Wasn't excited about any beer offerring but they do have some interesting margaritas.“

“This is a good restaurant for its size and it also connects with 2 other shops in 1. Would recommend it when starting to try the Mexican pallet of foodParking: The parking is next to the stores and there are about 16-20 parking lots, most of them occupied.“

“Omg just stopped here on a whim while getting gas and bought 4 birria tacos….amazing! Regret not buying more. Believe it’s a Mom and Son truck and both were super kind and I can tell the food is scratch made, authentic flavors, and made to order! Adding this to my list of must revisit spots on our future trips this way!“

“Burritos are like pizza. They both are often just ok and in most situations are good enough if you are starving. Luckily the burritos here are great. Can't think of a place where I had better. Also i enjoy the fresh and chunky guac. Btw they take cards and Apple Pay.“
