50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Green Oaks

“We love the cheese enchiladas at Taco Pros. It is the best in the area.“

“We had an awesome girls afternoon out with some great drinks and an awesome server than was full of suggestions and fun entertainment. Jorge G did a great job!“

“I can't recommend Taco Pros enough!

This place strikes the perfect balance between a quick bite and a full-service dining experience. Unlike other Mexican restaurants that go heavy on stereotypical decor, Taco Pros opts for a more modern and casual ambiance that feels fresh and welcoming.

The food is consistently fantastic—flavorful, fresh, and satisfying every time. Despite the quality, their service is impressively fast, comparable to a fast-food restaurant, but with that extra touch of care and attention you'd expect from a sit-down spot. It’s ideal if you’re on a lunch break or just craving a quick, delicious meal.

For those in offices, Taco Pros offers excellent catering options with trays that are perfect for any meeting or office event. My kids and I are regulars here, coming in at least twice a week. It’s easy to see why they’ve grown so rapidly in the past five years, opening multiple locations. Taco Pros really nails it with their combination of good food, great prices, and a comfortable atmosphere.

Kid-friendliness: Ask for their 1 Taco kids meal, FF or rice and beans. It's great for kids 10 and younger.“

“Mijo's' service is always friendly and welcoming! Thank you to them for also having roasted chickpeas as a protein option for plant based and vegan eaters! This is difficult to find as most places just remove the meat and then charge $3 for some avocado 🥑 but have no protein replacement. I really enjoyed going here nearly every week while living in the area!“

“OMG I really meant to post a pic but the food looked so darn good when we got it, we forgot! We had the quesabirria and everything ABOUT It was great! The seasoning was on point, the portions too! I was concerned that to only got 2 tacos because I'm used to 3 at other places but they were so filled.....I couldn't even eat it all!🤭 So yes, please go here! I didn't even mind that I had to place my own order on the kiosk. It was really easy & simple! Oh, the only downside is that the chairs are hard but I blame my hamstring for that! So if you have probs, bring a cushion. Oh and please try the churro shakes! Better than mcD!“
