10 Best Mexican Restaurants near Jekyll Island

“Excellent accommodations performed by staff to satisfy a party of 35 guests! Our food was ok. Not to discourage any future customers! Please eat and be merry at this fantastic restaurant. Next time we'll sit outside and listen to the live music.“

“Holy WOW! You will not be let down. This place is amazing. Everyone is friendly and the food is BANGIN! The owner is nice, engaging and present. Thank you for being so great all the time!We have been back a few times, and this is our favorite place, hands down!“

“At the risk of sounding dramatic and exaggerating, this is absolutely one of the best restaurants I've ever been to. The food, I don't even know how to describe it because "good" doesn't cut it. Phenomenal, superb, exceptional, fantastic..these would be better words. The owner told us last time we went in that they "don't make authentic food, they make REAL food" and he lives up to that statement. Our server was so nice and helpful, the kitchen staff waved as we came in and everything was perfect. I could not have asked for a better lunch with my family. Whatever you get, be sure to get a churro for desert. Five stars, A++, top tier.“

“We are regulars here and are always treated like family. This is one of the very few remaining restaurants that can still boast the trifecta of exceptional service, delicious food, and prices that are in appropriate relation to the quality of food.We also usually have our toddler with us, and the staff go above and beyond to accommodate families with young children. Highly recommend!“

“The food here is absolutely amazing. I’m going to attach a picture the owner needs to keep this miserable human being in the kitchen. She should never be allowed to deal with customers. She’s the grumpiest person I have literally ever encountered in my 40 years living. The only reason I keep coming is because the food is so great. My stomach turns ever time I have to witnesse her horrible nasty attitude.“

“Tonight I went here to get another delicious salad and I couldn't find my wallet. I thought it had been taken at the car wash. Long story short after panicking and cancelling credit cards a knight in shining armor (Mills the Asst Mgr) came walking up my driveway w/ my wallet and my dinner that I had to leave. I am beyond grateful. They wouldn't let me pay for my salad. Unbelievable! I will never eat anywhere else. Ha ha. How wonderful whoever found my wallet and then for Mills to go to the trouble of finding me and delivering the goods. I am still reeling with happiness. Thank you thank you. St. Simons please bring your business here. They are lifesavers for sure!Vegetarian options: Beans and veggies so yum!Parking: Effortless!“

“This was my first experience with El Potro.It was recommended by a friend who manages a restaurant offering different cuisine. Let's begin...The salsa was little more than chunky V-8 Juice. Not bad. Simply watery.The guacamole was fresh and tasted absolutely delicious.I had the Burrito Grande along with a Chile Rellenó.The burrito lived up to its name and was huge and filling.it was lackluster, at best.If not for the abundance of green peppers and melted cheese, it would have been void of any real flavor.The Chile Relleno was delicious.It had a particular spice or seasoning that made it tantalizing to the pallet.A pity only a cheese option was available.Or, at least offered. With meat inside it could well be among the best Brunswick has to offer.“

“My wife and I go to Cinco almost every Tuesday! They have great food, service, and the price is GREAT! Two of us can eat lunch, leave a tip all for around $25. I always have leftovers to take home for later! The owners are also great people!“

“This Mexican restaurant is on point. Tacos were phenomenal, the state quesadilla was one of the best quesadillas I've ever had. The fajitas were cooked perfectly vegetables weren't overdone. Great restaurant to go to when you're in Brunswick.“

“We were in the area looking for a quick take-out spot and ended up here. The staff was very welcoming and the food was awesome! Even my 2 little picky eaters left no crumbs, lol. If we're ever in the area again, we'll definitely return.“
