50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Lynwood

“Food was good, server was attentive, but nickle and diming people for extra chips and salsa and stuff like that is why the restaurant is empty on a Sunday afternoon. People don’t come back if they don’t think it’s a deal. It puts a bad taste in people’s mouth regardless of how good the food is. I’m not going back because I felt like they were trying to swindle me. I’m not saying, I’m just saying.“

“Food was so good! Happy we were able to try it while visiting out of state. Tacos de tripa y birria were so good. We had the queda berria combo with the tapatío Roman and that was delicious. We had some filled churros to end the night. 10/10 recommend. Limited sitting but great places to get take out and enjoy!“

“Me facino!! el ambiente y personal son muy agradables, pero sobre todo la comida es super Deliciosa“

“Really great chicken tacos!“

“After having a disappointing experience at another restaurant, we called Casa De Luz to see if they could accommodate our party of 13. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed, and the staff made sure we had everything we needed. The service was top-notch—attentive, friendly, and efficient. We had no issues with seating, and our orders were taken promptly without feeling rushed. The food? Absolutely amazing! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and delicious. You can tell they take pride in the quality of their dishes. On top of the great food and service, the prices were very reasonable, making the entire experience even better. We couldn’t have asked for a more enjoyable dining experience. If you’re looking for a place that values its customers and serves fantastic food, Casa De Luz is the place to go! We’ll definitely be back!“

“Listen this is an amazing taco truck. I have not been a food truck fan but the pictures caught my attention. I ordered the chicken taco dinner and from the refried beans to each taco the flavors were amazing. I didn’t get a chance to try the rice because it was so much food and my husband left it out. My food looked exactly like the pictures. I was to hungry at the time to take a picture for this review but I will on my next visit. I’ll be back!“

“Always friendly and food and drinks made fresh. Enjoy that owner came to ask how our meal was. Surprised that they offered a free taco lunch on my birthday.

“Como Cristiana me encanta visitar. Cuando me toca cerca de la TV le bajan al volumen para que la música secular no retumbe en mi oído. La birria y el pozole es lo que más pido pero todo tiene su gran sazón. Un excelente lugar para disfrutar, solo o en familia . Me encanta.“

“Very authentic Mexican joint. It was cozy, but the food was delicious! Idk how to describe it but I've had Mexican breakfast before from many different restaurant but this one taste best like it was homemade. It's like there was more care made in the food. Not sure if that made any sense? but all I'm saying is if you go here you will not be disappointed.

Parking: There's free street parking all around the sides of building.“

“OMG! I ordered their pork dinner and it was really delicious. The Chili Rellenos with the sauce on the side was to die for!! I will definitely be back
Sorry I didn’t even think about taking pictures but believe me it’s well worth it and the cost in my budget 2 meals $20 ?

Kid-friendliness: Fast service and very friendly“

“Man these Tacos and Tortas are the best. Every time I am in the South suburbs I come here to grab some. They are cash only so come with cash. The guy's been working here forever. They just recently repainted and remodeled just a little bit. The food is the same from years ago when I was coming here. I'm glad they're back open“

“I was at SSC for my son's graduation ceremony and was hungry, I tried to go to a birriera place down the block but they were closed. So I found this place and it exceeded my expectations. I was hoping for just some decent tacos but they were better than decent. Only problem now is, I live in Indiana, 30 minutes from here...so I'm gonna have to take a lil drive for these tacos again 😆! Carne asada, pastor and lengua tacos on homemade and regular corn tortillas were all delicious. The asada had a bit of a sweet flavor to it, I assume they might use oranges as a marinade idk, they were good either way.“

“Had lunch here, food was pretty good. Location was previously a different "UFO" restaurant, that had since closed and re-opened as the current Mexican place. At the time I was last there, the Google Maps entry for this place hadn't updated yet, so this review was added belatedly.“

“Nice place, great atmosphere and friendly staff.“

“Great Authentic Mexican food and Service.
Our server, Lalo, was exceptionally, friendly, helpful, and patient; being that it was our first time here. The Drinks we ordered were top tier and definitely worth the price.

This place is the best, the prices are good. I have been coming here for many many years. Let's keep the place here for a long long time! Back in the day I found myself eating there several times a week!

Vegetarian options: Tacos, burritos probably anything you ask.“

“The food here is very flavorful and authentic Mexican flavor. The menu is simple, goat birria, consomé and tacos. There are only a 4 tables to seat and eat, and if they are full, you just have to stand and wait for your turn. Very homemade meal. Recommend for those who are looking for authentic Mexican atmosphere and food.“
