Mexican Restaurants near Bettendorf

“This is our go to Mexican restaurant to get take out or eat in. Always great. Grandkids loved it I love it. My husband loves it. Skip the others. Quite inexpensive yet excellent service and product. Love the chicken enchiladas. We had out of town guests, and they loved the food, too.“

“A small restaurant in a strip mall behind the McDonald's off of 53rd ave in bettendorf. Go up to the counter and place your order for either an actual burrito or just a bowl. Two choices of rice, 4 different choices of proteins, and then various options for toppings including jalapeños.“

“I got the steak and shrimp burrito GTO which is a burrito that's wrapped in bacon and cheese. The steak was very tender and flavorful. There wasn't a lot of shrimp. I really liked the bacon and cheese that the burrito was wrapped in. It was an interesting twist to a normal burrito. The burrito was a little pricey at $21 but it did feed me for 2 meals. I would get it again.“

“We love La Flama so of course we were excited that we were able to book them for our wedding. All the guests looked forward to the quick service and great taste with a laid back atmosphere at the reception. Martin was so easy to work with to assure that we had everything in place for our day. He was also very accommodating when we needed to add more servings to our request. Definitely check them out for your event. You won’t be disappointed!“

“We had a last minute venue change and arrived with around 20 people, we arrived at 12:30pm on a Saturday and the manager was happy to accommodate us. The manager and his wait staff put some tables together and made us space very quickly. Saul, our waiter was extremely friendly and patient with the large group, and overall just seemed happy to be serving us. The food and service was great, overall good experience!Kid-friendliness: Plenty of room for large parties and we even sat the kids at their own table right next to us in their fiesta room.“

“Azteca has good flavor. The chips n salsa and beans n rice were really good. I had a combo of enchiladas and a taco. I couldn't eat it all, but I almost did. The staff was nice and the atmosphere was good. We took our time and just enjoyed sitting down and eating out.“

“Taco Bell is pretty much the only fast food place I go to these days, ever since McDonald's started cosplaying as a fancy restaurant. Like, a dollar menu in 2023? Incredible. Spicy potato soft tacos and cheesy bean & rice burritos are $1 each, fairly healthy, fairly low-cal. Order between 2-5pm for a $1 soft drink, but otherwise, full-price for a drink is still worth it considering the cheap and delicious food. Additionally, this is my favorite Taco Bell ever since the remodeling last year. Looks very nice, the employees are always very friendly, and it seems to be much less busy than the other Taco Bells in the QC. Usually while dining in someone comes around to ask how the food is, which is typically only something I'd expect out of a fancier restaurant.Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian options available, and with some slight modifications, vegan dishes are also easily available.Dietary restrictions: Plenty of vegetarian options available, and with some slight modifications, vegan dishes are also easily available. Low-cal options are easy by removing certain ingredients that are calorie dense or unimportant for the item's taste, like the grilled chicken burrito (remove the tortilla chips).“

“A true QC institution. Tacos are great! I don't get here very often, but every now and then I have a craving for the hard shell tacos and I drive the two blocks to get my fix.This night I walked in at around quarter till 8. Nobody else was dining and I could tell the three employees wanted to leave. As I started back out to my car I was assured they could get me some quick tacos though.And quick they were. Delicious too. These are the sort of tacos that you probably grew up eating on taco night at home. Ground beef with lots of "taco" seasoning, lettuce, tomato, and "cheese". They're about as inauthentic as they come, but they sure are tasty.The general atmosphere supports this sort of food too. The walls are a shade of yellow slightly lighter than the cheese on the tacos, the carpet is that thin sort some restaurants used to have 40 years ago, and the outside looks like stucco but maybe isn't? I don't know - I also don't care. The tacos are delicious and I'm coming when I want them.Just to be clear, none of this is sarcastic. I legit like the tacos here. Just being abundantly clear on that point.I look forward to my next kinda late night taco run to Rudy's. Thanks for continuing to be the iconic Quad Cities institution that you are Bettendorf Rudy's Tacos. I'll see you next time.Vegetarian options: You can order multiple of the dishes with beans instead of meat.Kid-friendliness: There are booster seats and high chairs available for use. I've seen kids here before. They enjoy Rudy's Tacos.Parking: There is ample free parking in the lot outside the front of the restaurant.Dietary restrictions: Probably hard to make tacos keto or Paleo friendly. Try one of the salads - you could probably request ingredients specific to your diet needs.“

“Jose’s fajitas meal was amazing!! It’s not on the menu as it is a specialty item so ask for it. It was everything he described and then some. The staff was kind which made for a pleasant experience. Would absolutely recommend this place.“

“The reviews for this restaurant speak for the all around quality from the atmosphere to the staff and to the food. Although the outside is inviting with outdoor seating available, you might think you wouldn’t get Mexican food like this and boy would you be wrong.The menu is plentiful, there’s something for everyone. It was tough to decide what to try. I don’t think I would have went wrong with any of it. The food enjoyed here was: complimentary chips and salsa; fajitas and flautas…. believe me it was an internal fight to not try the tacos lolThis is definitely a stop I’d make again, no doubt about it ?“
