50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Lake Buena Vista

“None Better, plus great Catering options!!“

“Great guacamole and margaritas! Lily at the bar was a delight!“

“Wonderful dinner at La Hacienda. Service was excellent and food quality was great.“

“I love this place, I only go there in special occasions like birthdays, or family reunions, with nice view of the Maya Pyramid, and the three caballeros ride at Epcot, I recommend it 100%“

“Here is my take on the place. If you like tequila and shots this place can be very good. However I think it’s a big overpriced and the margaritas are a bit weak for the price. I do want to comment they have a huge selection of different types of tequila which makes this place very unique.“

“Wonderful atmosphere; patio seating was lovely and dog friendly; wait staff is superb!“

“I love this place, however I had an experience on 5/1 that I wasn’t thrilled with and it’s very difficult to find a way to contact to give feedback so I had to resort to a FB review. My mom and I visited on 5/1. Our server spilled most of a Champagne Papi onto my lap. I totally understand mistakes happen, however, not once did anyone ask me if I needed anything. The server (I have the name but don’t want to blast all over FB) never asked me if I was Ok, she just simply said she’d be right back with another one, but it was all of the floor, my shorts, my shirt and splashed my mom across the table. I thought maybe she’d be right back with napkin or towel but she didn’t, so I went to the bathroom to try to clean up, but so surprised that no one ever followed up with me. I’m not sure if maybe she was so embarrassed that she didn’t want to tell anyone, or what happened, but I sat in wet shorts the entire time. Thankfully, the pink dye came out of everything, but still am surprised no one ever checked in. Maybe this is standard for you guys, but I wanted to share in case this is not normal.“

“Great food and service as always. We were there Saturday evening when the temperature outside was below freezing. Our table was the first table in front of the door and every time the door opened, it was a blast of cold air. Thankfully it wasn't our first time there or it would have been our last.“

“Alejandro was amazing and so helpful and friendly ! The food is soooo good. We had the birra tacos, shrimp torta, and quesadillas and everything was delicious. Not to mention the street corn. The restaurant is clean and staff is so kind. We will certainly be back !“

“We have been coming to Chuy’s for more than 10 years and last night was mo different except we had the pleasure of meeting a server by the name of Warren. We brought our next door neighbor for their first time. Granted we came 30 min from closing (horrible guests right?), and with 3 little guests, you think we would be in and out by any typical server. NOPE! Warren treated us like they just opened, best personality ever, fantastic service, above and beyond through the entire experience. We can’t say enough great things about last night. We will go back again, but now we will have a server request each and every time!! We recommend this restaurant to anyone. Will there be a wait, most likely, is it worth it, yes!! Should you ask for Warren? Definitely!!! Tell them Jason sent you! Enjoy!! #chuysrocks #warrenisthebest #100%service“

“Absolutely amazing food and great service.“

“★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A Fiesta You Don't Want to Miss! From the moment we stepped into Kavas Tacos + Tequila, the vibrant energy hit us like a conga line—electric, warm, and immediately contagious. The décor brilliantly blends modern touches with Mexican flair, creating a festive vibe that feels both stylish and inviting. Despite the word "Tequila" in the name, there was absolutely no pressure to drink—just a welcoming atmosphere where everyone can feel at ease, whether you're sipping a cocktail or simply soaking in the fun. The menu is a flavor-packed parade of Tex‑Mex delights—think fresh guacamole, queso fundido, esquites, and tacos with bold, playful twists. Every dish felt carefully crafted, bursting with authentic zest and personality. What truly made the night unforgettable was the live entertainment. Unlike your average stage show, the band roamed the dining area, weaving from table to table with joyous energy, transforming each dish into a part of a celebration. They weren’t just performing—they were inviting you into the moment. You felt like an honored guest in a moving melody of laughter and song. This wasn’t just dinner—it was a memory in the making. If you're in Orlando and craving phenomenal Mexican food paired with a lively, hands-on musical experience (without the pressure to sip), Kavas Tacos + Tequila delivers all around.“

“Yuuu ummm! One of our faves when we're travelling to the parks. The pozole is the real deal, the botana sampler is a perfect light-ish meal for me. My husband likes the mix n match street tacos. Great 'rita menu & always get the churros to go! 😉“

“Came here late night expecting mediocre service. The staff was super helpful and friendly and the food was good. I absolutely would recommend.“

“Stopped in a little over a week ago for lunch with my wife while visiting family in the area for the holidays. Came in blind never hearing about Bubbakoo's and left very happy. The guys working there were super friendly and accommodating. They did a great job preparing the food and beer prices were lower than some bars in the area. The manager even set us up by the tvs, turned on a football game we were interested in, and brought out all the food once it was prepared.

On a side note we tried visiting a Bubbakoo's nearby back home and my wife agrees it was not nearly as good. Not to say anything bad, but rather how GOOD this location is!
Definitely worth stopping in, we will likely be back next time we are in town.“

“Great food and drinks! Friendly staff, and great weekday specials. I got the steak street tacos and they were fantastic! Elvera gave me great service at the bar, will definitely come back!“

“Have been here a few times and it never disappoints!!! The food is just delicious. The Molcajete is just amazing!!! And the Magaritas are to die for!!! the Staff are just brilliant! Taco Tuesday with $5Margs is excellent!! Highly recommend this place!!!“

“What a fantastic experience! We tried several different kinds of tacos, and every single one had great flavor!
To top it off, the fresh homemade lemonade was so refreshing and perfectly balanced — the ideal drink to go with the meal.

The atmosphere was welcoming, and the service was friendly and attentive. Everything tasted fresh and authentic. Can’t wait to come back for more! Highly recommend.“

“Dined in at Lime while waiting on a layover flight to Houston, TX. The staff were friendly and engaging especially Ms. Jordan who took the time to make recommendations on the menu and patiently took our customizations. I definitely recommend this restaurant especially for the fajitas, empanadas, and fresh squeezed lemonade. Will definitely come again when I am in the area.“

“Amazing Super fresh food made fresh everyday and you can taste it! Extremely authentic with super sweet people and great service. Extremely good pricing and they have those delicious fruit drinks also made fresh daily with real fresh fruit. I wish I lived here so I could visit regularly. Thank you so much.“

“The best Authentic Mexican food. Good portions. Friendly service.“

“I ordered the tamarind margarita and carne asada. The margarita was good. The steak was very thin and chewy, it was also under seasoned. For a thin cut of steak like that they should tenderize it. Chips, table salsa and queso dip were good.“

“Our server, Diana M, was exceptionally efficient, friendly, and helped create a goood atmosphere all around. Our food and service was top notch. Thank you“

“Great food, always freshly prepared, with great service! Nice bar with 3 big screens. Perfect place for lunch with the crew or just a quick bite for yourself. Easy in and out access with the new I-4 exit to Daryl Carter Parkway now open!“

“Best place for eating nice customer service“

“Always Great place good food and drinks“

“Man came here after a long day of being hungry and walking all day at Disney and they stayed open for us even while there getting ready to close up and wow did they impress that turned out to be bomb I give a good food review would recommend and very good staff“

“Muy buena comida y buen servicio y recomiendo el chiwawa“

“WOW !! This is seriously some of the best Mexican food we’ve ever had. The menu takes traditional items to the next level. We couldn’t decide between the many amazing looking dishes, but the server helped with some recommendations that were 🔥🔥🔥. We got the Birria tacos 🌮 and the chicken Enchiladas. Both were simply amazing. The birria was so tender and bursting with flavor. This has been added to our favorites list and we’re already planning to come back.“

“I had the bowl with carnitas. The ingredients tasted fresh and it was delicious. The menu had a great variety. The staff was very friendly and I look forward to coming back. People might think to compare it to Chipotle, but it's more affordable and definitely better tasting.“

“The food was fabulous. Thank you Peter and Akman for an amazing meal!!!“

“Came in from Kentucky. Unfamiliar w/restaurant, so ordered an El Grand beef steak burrito with queso. That thing was not only great, it was two-meals big! Chips and salsa among the best appetizers ever! This is a terrific Mexican eatery, with awesome Mexican ambiance! Highly recommended!“

“It was a wonderful experience, the food was marvelous, the service was top notch and although we had a minor issue with credit card processing Rob the manager was on top of everything and helped us all the way until the issue was resolved. If you want a great place to watch the park's fireworks, all at the same time, this is the place to be.“

“I was very pleased with the service and food. amazing“

“We definitely got Lay today. Lay took great care of us. The food and service was excellent. We had a margarita flight, tacos, nachos and enchiladas. Everything was perfect and the service was incredible!!

Love the vibe. Specifically Lay!! The excitement for the beginning to the end!!

See you soon!!“

“This place was soooo good. The service. The music. The excellent trainer training the new hire. Came here for my girlfriend birthday and they have her a waterfall shot of tequila which she loved.“

“First time here this is my favorite new place to eat now great portions.“

“I’ll admit—I’ve been gatekeeping this spot for a while! Only recently did I start sharing it with family and friends, and now it’s one of our favorites. These are hands-down the best authentic tacos in the area, and the prices can’t be beat.

As a South Texan, I am picky when it comes to Mexican food, and this place gets it right every single time. My regular order is the asada tacos with pineapple agua fresca and their elote—an unbeatable combo. I’ve also tried their gorditas, tortas, taquitos, and the rice and beans, and I’ve never once been disappointed. The fresh salsa and toppings bar is chef’s kiss.

Some people mention the tacos are small, but that’s because they’re authentic street taco size—double tortillas, packed full of flavorful meat, and absolutely delicious. Honestly, they’re a steal for the quality and portion.

The staff is always kind and welcoming, and I truly hope this place gets all the popularity it deserves. A true hidden gem that I’m finally happy to share!“

“The food and experience is amazing and Ruth is the greatest .“

“Food and service were so good!!!“

“A great place to grab food with friendly service. We have tried many of the dishes with no complaints about any of them.“

“Have been here countless times, always good……today we had tortas and a caldo de res…..Everything was really good, best torta de cuerito and carnitas I’ve ever had…….Great service, the micheladas are top notch!! A great neighborhood Mexican restaurant !!!“

“Yo voy a los dos kissimme y pido DoorDash en el de Orlando las 2 tiendas las personas son un amor en kissimme me conocen en persona la mánager un amor se los recomiendo ese pollo Dios 5 estrellas 🌟“

“😍The Food was Absolutely BANG'N! The Molcajete (Barbacoa) is AMAZING! The flavors, and the portions, and the meat was PERFECT! SO much more than expected, and just the best meal we've had in a long time. 100% Recommend! So satisfying, so delicious. Eating here will make you and your tummy happy!“
