50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Madeira Beach

“Took my employees here for a quick lunch yesterday. Service was amazing. The atmosphere was amazing. The view was even better. We started off with the mad nachos it was huge and absolutely delicious! Hit the spot! I had the Birria Tacos with Consomé it was extremely flavorful and tender (If you want the birria tacos, go earlier rather than later,since they sell out. ) Since it’s in a tourist area, the menu reflects both local flavor and appeal for visitors. We are not alcohol drinkers, but looking around at the other tables, the drinks looked refreshing. Everything came very fast. I would recommend this restaurant for groups. We will be coming back soon for dinner.“

“Family of 5 visited on a rainy Wednesday evening, on 7/1. Restaurant was plenty busy. Was greeted by Karen Vanessa explaining, with a smile, that service may take a while. We weren't in any rush. Ordered some AMAZING margaritas, ordered our food and just a little while later it all came out. While The server (Karen) was SO busy with other larger parties and a few smaller parties, she kept smiling and kept all of us happy. The food (mine was an Al Pastor wet burrito) was simply AMAZING! Other family members got the Birria tacos and fajitas. All the food was wonderful and service was even better. Totally recommend!“
