Mexican Restaurants near Lauderhill

“Taste, quality, portion and customer service“

“The staff could be a little more friendly or at least care that you are there to spend money and not goofing around with each other. The food is great and I hope they bring the brisket back (my favorite). Line moves OK but would be faster if the above mentioned was not happening.“

“Best service and AMAZING tacos“

“Since moving here from Texas I’ve been DESPERATE to find some good mexican food, and I finally found it! We went for the late night happy hour, they had great drink specials, the bartender was friendly and the food was so amazing. The street corn and pork belly tacos were my favorites but everything I ate was just perfection. I’ll definitely be back“

“My brother's and I visited Rocco's for lunch and had an excellent experience.

The overall layout was very welcoming and the staff made us feel right at home.

Most places I get table side guacamole I feel as if the ingredients haven't had enough time to marinate, but here the seasonings made it perfect and it had a lot of good flavor.

We ordered the burrito bowl, tacos, and quesadilla all of which came out great. Especially the chorizo tacos. Those we a a favorite by far.

The bar tender was kind enough to put together a unique flight of tequila for us to try as well. We all enjoyed it and had a chance to try something new.

The manager stopped by one or two times to make sure everything was good and that we were happy and our waitress was very attentive and checked on our table often.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Rocco's. The establishment was clean, well ran, with great service, good tequila, and awesome food!“

“The service was amazing because of Deyanira she did great service she explained the menu and recommended to us her favorite plate it was delicious . Hopefully she gets a great recognition from her manager because she deserves it I will definitely coming back soon .“

“Was looking forward to the Ceviche I had on our first night on vacation. I came back to have the Ceviche again a few days later since I loved it so much and the Ceviche was completely different. All shrimp…. Did not even taste like Ceviche. Was sooo disappointed. I wish they would have told us before we ordered or I would have gotten something else instead. Let your customers know if the menu changes. I walked through high winds and rain to come back to this restaurant before flying back home.“

“Best place around. Friendly Staff. Great food. Go there to watch soccer games. They have them all. La Liga-Premier League, you name it. Taco salad is a must. Don't miss this Gem.“

“Best. Mexican food on Hollywood Beach. Drinks are super. This restaurant is a must!!“

“Day 5 Happy Hour at El Camino location in Boca Raton, FL was incredible. The place was buzzing, but the atmosphere was fantastic. We snagged a table pretty quickly despite the crowd. Our server, John, was top-notch. We started with a $6 margarita & a michelada, & the tamarind straw was a game-changer. The food was phenomenal - chips with salsa, pork tamale, chicharrones, & more. We were stuffed, but the flavors were perfection. What a steal!“

“a go-to to get my street taco fix until I get back to Mexico!!“

“Our new favorite place Can't believe we have been sleeping on this place since it's literally down the street from my house. Punkys Tacos is an absolute vibe and the food is fire. 🔥 We are already planning what we are getting next time Our server Julie was great with suggestions of favorites especially since it was our first time. Queso dip and Chips - the addition of chorizo was a nice twist that jazzed this classic up Cheetodilla - I cant even put into words this quesadilla with a hot cheeto twist. My daughter ❤️ loved it Fish tacos - perfectly crunchy Mahi with Pink corn shells .. Pink !!!!! The atmosphere of the place was enjoyable with music 🎶 and table settings that gave it a homey feel. Next Friday is there 1 year anniversary and they are having a big party. Go check them out.“

“We live really close to this little gem, always wanted to try it and FINALLY made it there for lunch today. What a huge loss that we waited so long! Their food is so good. I ordered the 2 carna asada taco lunch special which came with beans and rice. My husband ordered the carnita taco lunch special. The meat was so flavorful and juicy. The rice was fluffy, the beans were topped with melted cheese. We ordered a side of chips and salsa. The chips were warm, crunchy and seemed freshly made. Absolutely amazing lunch.... We will not wait too long to return here to eat.“

“From the moment I sat down, I knew I was in for something special. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and filled with the kind of aromas that instantly make you hungry. I started with the Elote corn, and let me just say, absolutely fantastic. Perfectly grilled, coated with just the right balance of seasoning and creaminess, it was bursting with flavor in every bite. Truly one of the best I’ve had! We also enjoyed a taco platter that came with chicken tacos, beans, rice, and corn. Each element was thoughtfully prepared and equally amazing. The chicken was tender and flavorful, the beans and rice were comforting and perfectly seasoned, and the corn tied everything together beautifully. On top of the great food, the staff was super friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. They made us feel right at home and added to the authentic, family-style vibe of the restaurant. Overall, the meal was not just food, it was an experience. Authentic, flavorful, and made with care. I highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a true taste of Mexico right here at home. 🌮🌽✨“

“Great lobster taco! Enjoyed with a margarita!“

“Great food. Great atmosphere! The Birria tacos 🔥🔥🔥“

“Had a GREAT TIME! The food was incredible and absolutely delicious! Leia was wonderful!!! We will definitely be back to have her take care of us again!“

“We arrived at Taco Craft a little after 7 PM, and it was pretty calm—not too packed. We were attended to right away, which was a great start. Parking is convenient since it’s located in the Modera residence building, and there’s also free city parking nearby. I ordered the spicy pineapple drink, and my husband got the passion fruit—both were delicious! We went with the “3 sauces special” and the “3 tacos platter,” and everything was excellent from start to finish. Our waitress, Michelle, was amazing—very knowledgeable about the menu and Taco Craft overall.
There’s also a DJ on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays who plays really good music, which adds a great vibe to the atmosphere.
This was our first time here, and everything exceeded our expectations. We’ll definitely be coming back! 🌮✨“

“I just had the most amazing shrimp Quesadilla!!! The food is always fresh and cooked to perfection 👍“

“Everything was so fresh, the atmosphere and service were exceptional!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – CT Cantina & Taqueria (Dania Pointe, Dania Beach, FL)

I recently visited CT Cantina at Dania Pointe and overall it was a really enjoyable experience. The atmosphere was vibrant and fun—the vibe and music on Friday night were energetic (a bit loud, but part of the lively ambiance). Service was spot-on: fast, attentive, and our drinks were refilled promptly without having to ask.

What stood out:

The salsa game is strong—super flavorful and authentic. The only downside: the bright red overhead lights made it impossible to distinguish which salsa was which, since they all looked red.

Fresh chips and multiple dips were a treat—though I found them slightly oily, they still had great crunch and taste.

Tacos were solid but had some quirks: the flour tortillas were surprisingly thick, and they shrunk in size compared to past visits. The chicken felt a touch too salty and a bit dry. Still, flavors were enjoyable overall.

On the downside, there was no dessert station anymore—apparently your favorite dessert has been removed. That was a bummer, especially since you used to love it.

Summary:
CT Cantina & Taqueria delivers great ambiance, helpful staff, fast service, and excellent salsas and chips. While the tortilla texture and smaller portions with slightly salty chicken dragged the experience down a bit—and losing the dessert option was disappointing—it’s still worth a visit. Hoping they bring back that dessert station soon!

Happy to return—even without the dessert, it's still a solid spot for casual Mexican with flair.“

“Accidentally ended up here as other restaurants in the strip mall were full or didn't appeal to us at the time. VERY impressed. Wait staff was friendly & helpful, margaritas were good, cold and powerful and the food was great. Wonderful way to spend a Sunday afternoon. We will be back!“

“The food at El Guanaco is the best hands down. I refer people all the time for food . We have been going a few years but not much the last few months due to the service. Sometimes you can put up with mediocre service because the food is so good . But today was the second time service was subpar… Today we waited 20 minutes and still no order taken ….There was another table with no beverages that was sat before us . We decided to leave and offered to pay for the beverages and chips but they would not let us pay . The cashier said she could take our order but we already had waited and decided it was best to just go ahead and leave …On the way out there were 3 vacant tables inside ….If we eat El Guanico in the future we will order to go because the service is just not there anymore. The food is the best but not going back anytime soon to dine in …Food 5 ⭐️ service 3⭐️…..“

“This is the first time i've been to this place and honestly it's the best experience.
Karen has the best customer service, is extremely fast with drinks and food, and is one of the best bartenders I have had in a while.
This experience was like no other.“

“phenomenal food and nice staff“

“great place to grab a bit and hang with friends.“

“The food was really good, just the bone marrow with shrimp has a side that was still raw. The rest of the ood we order was amazing, we had flautas con mole and quesadillas con hongos. The drinks were great, I order the Oaxaca Extra Spicy and tasted awesome. The live music was fun and we were able to dance.“

“Visited today and WOW I was blown away! I had the Chimichanga Bowl with soy chicken and it was amazing! The beans and rice was perfection topped with super fresh guacamole 🥑 pico and corn. I’m trying to figure out how to get this delicious vegan dishes every day!!!“

“We loved this place ! our server Darquin was attentive, sweet, bubbly & just plain adorable! Our fajitas were steaming hot & great ! The ambiance was upbeat & will keep you laughing! We recommend this place 💯 %. Thank you Senor Frogs & Darquin ! ❤️“

“Not the friendliest staff, but who cares? You go out to eat, to eat, and these people can cook. It is now my standing reservation where in my way to my second job in Monday’s Tuesdays I will stop by and order the chicken soft shell tacos. The salsa is on point, fresh corn tortillas and the chicken is cooked to perfection. If you are in to authentic food stop by, you won’t regret it. Decorations are beautiful.“

“Great south florida local restaurant! The guacamole is amazingly fresh.“

“The food here is absolutely amazing - authentic Mexican! I’ve tried different dishes, and none have disappointed. I highly recommend the molcajete, I’ve had it at many places, but this one is by far the best. The service is always wonderful too. The ladies are very attentive. Damaris heard it was my and my sister-in-law birthday, and surprised us with cake, which was such a sweet detail. And I have to mention her micheladas, they are so good and I’m not even a beer (or michelada) person. Highly recommended this place!“

“Delicious and authentic Mexican cuisine! Love the empanadas, queso fundido & fajitas!“

“Excellent tacos tiny place very friendly staff“

“Great food and service. Will return.“

“Been going for over 25 years. I do try plenty of other competitors because I’m a foodie. OLE OLE is the best there is. Never change! Love the whole enchilada and the salsa.“

“Our favorite Mexican Restaurant in South Florida.“
