44 Best Mexican Restaurants in Tallahassee

“The real deal is in Woodville yeahh!!! ? when I say " real deal" a real Mexican food, not,(mex-amer),not commercialize!! Worth to drive,worth to try!! ???? #my favorite“

“drove to Tallahassee from Valdosta, GA, for a shopping trip, and a good friend recommended El Rey Tacos & Beer. I’m so glad I stopped by! This place instantly transported me back to Mexico. I had the best torta I’ve ever tasted, the bread was perfectly fresh and soft, and every bite was bursting with flavor. It’s hard to find something this authentic back home in Valdosta. I also tried their aguas frescas, and they were incredibly refreshing and flavorful. My 10-year-old daughter ordered tacos and surprised me by eating four! She said they were the best tacos she’s ever had.This place is absolutely worth the drive. I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend for anyone craving true Mexican flavors!“

“This place is soooo good! The service was great. Our waiter was super nice. The drinks are so good you don’t taste the alcohol so iykyk. My birria was amazing as well as the beans and rice. Idk about you but that’s definitely important lol. Give this place a try if you haven’t, you won’t be disappointed!“

“Food was amazing. Point blank. Got the chimichanga and it was fantastic. Everything was so fresh and the Guacamole was out of this world. My waiter was also great. He was hilarious when I was asking for a to go box and he was challenging me to finish the plate. Which I was half tempted to rise to the challenge.“

“A local recommended San Miguel's, and we're so glad they did!

Don't judge this place by the outside. The food was absolutely delicious, the service was fantastic, the portions were generous, and the prices were hard to beat.

We were just passing through Tallahassee on our way back to Tampa, but this meal was memorable enough that we'll definitely be stopping here again on future trips.

If you're looking for great Mexican food in Tallahassee, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommend!“

“The food and service are awesome here.“

“Had dinner with the family here tonight and it was amazing. Service was beyond great, and the food was awesome. Will definitely be back.“

“I highly recommend that you stay away from this establishment. After being a regular customer for years, I was turned away rudely a full hour before they were supposed to close. I mentioned that them deciding to close an hour early and affecting my plans didn’t make me want to come back and I was told “OK, goodbye.” I have never felt less appreciated as a longtime customer. Correction…a former longtime customer.“

“The piña colada’s are excellent 👍🏻👍🏻 And the food was yummy. The “presentation”of the food and drinks was also very nice 👍🏻 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😋😊 I was also impressed with the salsa which was good. ✨We will definitely be back ❤️✨“

“I love this place for drinks 🍹 and food 🍱“

“Food was amazing and so was the service. My steak was cooked to perfection. The plating was beautiful! Don’t sleep on this place!“

“Really great food! Best taco I have ever had in Tally!“

“Great location and food Fajitas are excellent. Salsa has good flavor. Wait staff friendly and helpful“

“Great place, food amazing! drinks were flowing.... you can watch anything you want and when March madness comes around the deck will have as many games as you can see.“

“chao mein is regular decent, the pineapple fried rice was great, the combination steak, shrimp and chicken also very good. The staff all speak Spanish, with little English, but not feel intimated to speak English, they were friendly. Usually, quiet not many people. Super close to school, which I would often come to eat for lunch.“

“Just moved to Tally, and one of the first things on my list was to find a taco spot i can regularly visit. I had tried 2 mexican restaurants before this spot and I found them disappointing. I had an inkling my spot was going to be a mexican food truck they did not disappoint. I recommend classic street taco and their sopes. They're located in a gas station parking lot, that being said they dont have a lot of shaded seating. Go for the weekend take out, not the vibe“

“Awesome little road side ?taco spot! Food IS FABULOUS! My husband is always craving to return for more. Lol. I really love how they've created a little dining area out side their stand with twinkling Christmas lights ubove head making it in a way the ultimate "lady & the hound," type date ?night .. ?...“

“Great food and the karaoke tonight inside was great! Great music!! So glad they brought it inside!! We will definitely be back!! Our group had a blast!! We will bring more people!!“

“I’ve been coming to this place since 2021, back when I was in college, and every time I’m in town I always come back. The food is consistently great, and the staff are always super nice and friendly—even when I haven’t visited in a while and there are new team members. The restaurant has a really nice outdoor area that’s perfect for hanging out with a group of friends, and the inside is also cozy and welcoming. Overall, it’s a cute spot to grab some drinks and good food. They also have BOGO margaritas at great prices, which is a huge plus!“

“We were greeted with a smile. Amazing waitress. Drinks were awesome and food was delicious, including the homemade corn tortillas. We will be back and definitely recommend!“

“We love the food so much we go once a week“

“Went there about let just say 2013-2018 or something like that. I met new friends and also my mom works here before had a new job as well. Currently, it was the last time before l moved on 2018 of November it was 5 years ago. Currently make a visit sometimes whenever I coming back.“

“Best Cuban sandwich I’ve had in Tallahassee!“

“Today I decided to grab some Mexican food for lunch and remembered there’s a food truck along my route. The aroma coming from it was amazing, and the prices were even better. Portions were generous. I was more than full by the time I finished and honestly wasn’t sure if I’d stay awake through the rest of my shift, lol.

I ordered the beef quesadillas. The beef was a little on the salty side, but everything still tasted fresh and flavorful. By the end of lunch, my plate was completely clean.“

“Stopped in with the family today. Grands lived watching the guacamole made at the table and then devoured it. Street Tacos are wonderful.“

“Good experience overall. Tacos weren't out of this world but a tasty enough to return again later. We got the chicken tacos with chili verde which I'd recommend, otherwise they might be a slightly bland. Service was slow, but we went on a Saturday with our college son so perhaps they're more efficient during the school week. Recommended stop.“

“I have been driving to mid-way/quincy to get pupusas....no more! this restaurant is right in my neighborhood, and the pupusas are sooo good. we order 20+ to take home :-)“

“Good experience. The food was good. The plantains were excellent. It's not a fun selection as in a regular Pollo Tropical, but sufficient. The grilled chicken was rather dry and the Cuban sandwich was lacking flavor in the pork and virtually no mustard. Not sure I'd go back there. There's other options in the student union to try. It's a decent back up place. The service seemed super fast for the number of folks there that day. It was packed. We used the kiosk so there's really no interaction with the employees.“

“The FLAN is amazing with a small slice of chocolate cake on the bottom. I always get 2! Their food is well-seasoned and delicious! I'm so glad they are by my office on Thursdays.“

“had the taco salad and my husband had the street tacos. Both were amazing and will definitely be returning to try the rest of their menu.“

“Great experience friendly staff“

“I absolutely love Moe's on Mahan in tallahassee. They always get my order correct and it's absolutely delicious. I usually order online. I love this because I can select what time I wish to pick it up and it's always ready and warm when I get there.“

“They had 2 people working on a sat night and they were slamed. They did great at keeping their cool and could of had anothe person to help. They had had great attitudes. The food was great. The mens restroom was in pieces. I will definitely go again.“

“I recommend only for the food. Which is either great or ok depending on what day and who is in the kitchen. 2 for 1 Margaritas is a joke. $13.99 for an original $15.99 for favors. Really? That’s a normal $7 or $8 drink price! Not to mention there is hardly any alcohol in them! It was Friday night and there was hardly anybody there. Digging their grave.“

“Girls brunch date ! Baby I I came home to visit from charleston and this was a hit ! Hamburger quesadilla maaaaan on point and boom strawberry margarita ouuuuu! What a date ! I’m telling everyone in charleston about this spot !“

“Stellar Taco Bell. Either a corporate store that does the brand proud or the owner/manager should be proud of their employees. I’ve eaten at Taco Bell’s for 15 years and I have been fond of many, but this Taco Bell is the best one I’ve ever been to. Cleanest bathroom, perfectly presented and cleaned dining area, perfectly spread ingredients on my Grilled Cheese Steak Burrito, no mistakes on my order and welcoming customer service. I have never been inspired to write a Google review but this team deserves a considerable amount of credit for the standard that they hold themselves to.“

“2 for 1 Margaritas $11 delicious!“

“I live in Crawfordville and after the extremely rude and trash staff at that location i instead drove up to this location and the staff was great, joked and was great to deal with

Cashier was named Ryder R - great service and on Easter no less!“

“When I drove up to the drive thru, a lovely voice greeted me at the order station: the name is Somma. I was so delighted, I though for a second I was picking up fine dinning in a drive thru. When I approached the window, the first thing I noticed, besides this angelic voice, were lashes. I mean wow!!! Somma, you made a a doubtful day a blessing. Thank you!“

“Carla is the GOAT. I’ve been DoorDashing recently, and unfortunately every once in a while I have to wait a while for an order, which is what happened today about a 10 minute wait. From across the counter, though, they were clearly working hard and honestly I don’t think people should care too much about wait times when the employees are obviously doing their best and not slacking. It also looked like they were training someone, which I completely understand can slow things down. Carla, who I presume is the manager, noticed I had been waiting and offered me a small drink and a burrito for the inconvenience, which I really appreciated. Out of the 500+ orders I’ve delivered, she’s one of the very few people who has actually offered me a drink or anything at all because of a wait. I also want to point out that today was a first. I’ve never had a bad experience or a long wait at this location before. And may I say, Taco Bell might honestly be one of the best fast-food places in Tallahassee, possibly even rivaling Chick-fil-A.“
