50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Dyer

“First time there food was amazing, service was great and restaurant is beautiful“

“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. This makes about 6-8 times I’ve been here, with the same great food and service. I highly recommend going here when Mexican food is on your mind.“

“Food is amazing service is greatttt“

“The stars are for the Dyer restaurant. I've also been to Lansing (on Torrence Ave). I'll tell you about both and compare them for you, but all I've ever eaten here is barbacoa because you can't find it by my house & I LOVE it. (My husband has tried a couple of other things, but he'd never had barbacoa before and once he tried mine, that's all he's eaten, also. 😂)

🔸Dyer - I've been here many times. It's not fancy, but it's clean and the service is quick. I've eaten inside and taken my food to go. You order at the counter and they bring you the food which is DELICIOUS‼️ It's the best barbacoa I've had in YEARS! So good! 😋

🔸Lansing - I've only been here once. I took my food to go. It looks a little fancier (more colorful and modern) and it appeared as though they had more people working there, but the service didn't seem quite as fast as in Dyer, and this restaurant is on the corner of a very busy street, and it was dinner time. (The Dyer restaurant is not as big for inside dining, but it's also very busy. However, it's located in a not very busy corner mall.)

I was disappointed in Lansing's barbacoa after having eaten Dyer's many times and come to expect steady perfection. Here, it was dark and dried out. It's a good thing I ordered some guacamole on the side to add to my tacos. I always order extra cheese on my tacos but here, I don't think I even got the normal amount and I paid almost a dollar a taco for it. (So much for my "Taco Tuesday" discount.) My husband ordered the same in a burrito and he felt the same way that I did. We were very disappointed when we got home - and the food was still very hot, so we can't blame it on that.

I never thought to order guacamole in Dyer, but in Lansing they have an open freezer (to the side) for Mexican popsicles and such, and an open fridge right at the counter, so the guacamole, amongst other things (I don't remember what), were impossible to ignore. I did appreciate that they offered two kinds - with everything and plain. Not only was it very tasty, but I had a small amount left because I didn't eat all of my food at once, and the guacamole stayed fresh and green in my fridge for TWO DAYS! Unheard of!

So, all in all, I might try the Lansing location again, but the Dyer location is totally in my heart for their barbacoa and people. Time after time it's been tender and scrumptious and the people are warm and friendly - something I cannot say about the Lansing location.

Btw, both places have plenty of free parking - in Lansing, on both sides of the building and in Dyer, a large, shared lot right in front. Wheelchair accessibility is good in Dyer, but I think it would be more difficult in Lansing.“

“I had to come leave a review because I just had the best experience at this Dyer Chipotle. The girls working up front were extremely kind, as well as the man (manager I'm assuming) working with them. I truly appreciated how kind their employees are. :)“

“great soup!“

“Great Experience at Taco Bell in Dyer, IN!

Today, I skipped my usual go-to spots for Taco Bell because it was cold, and I didn’t feel like getting out of the car. I’m so glad I did! I tried the Steak and Fries Nachos with Garlic Butter Sauce on the side, plus two Double Tacos with light meat from the value menu—all for just $11.

The Steak and Fries Nachos were absolutely delicious, and the tacos were fresh and made to order. While I wish they had added a bit more cheese and included napkins in the bag, the staff was clean, friendly, and punctual.

I’ll definitely be back to this location soon. And I won’t forget to grab some Taco Bell Fire Sauce—it takes everything up a notch! 🔥“

“La Zacatecana LLC serves some of the most flavorful tacos I’ve ever had. The tortillas taste fresh and homemade, and the meats are perfectly seasoned and tender. Each bite is full of authentic flavor, and the salsas give just the right amount of heat. The service is fast and friendly, making it a great spot for a quick bite or a casual meal. Definitely a place I’ll keep coming back to.“

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

“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!“

“Very friendly service. Food is seasoned very well. Have been to other taco places in Indiana such as Hammond East Chicago. Gary Hobart this treats still rates number one. And the meat in the tacos Is more than enough. In fact, you can split one taco and take the other tortilla and make another taco in a tacos we will definitely keep going to them“

“I recently ordered pork & steak tacos for a party of 20, with rice beans and all the dressings ( onions, cilantro, tomatoe, lettuce) the family & friends raved & raved how delicious authentic Mexican food was! I've known Elios family ( my extended family) for years, they are the best tacos in NWI???“

“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.“

“Was so good will definitely be back!“

“I've eaten her for a few years. The food is ALWAYS consistently good. Fresh toppings, perfectly seasoned meat , just an overall great experience as a customer. The employees greet you with a smile and are very courteous. I'll be returning as always.“

“I LOVE her beef soup, the broth is amazing. Dine-in, or carry out you're getting authentic Mexican food. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Excellent quality, authentic Mexican food. BUT… BRING BACK THE OLD SALSA 😭 Plenty of my friends and I agree the old salsa was 100% better.“

“I had my 40th birthday here over the weekend using the party room with about 40 people. Everything turned out so nice. The food was delicious, the servers were very accommodating, there was live music (which I didn’t know about and many people in the party enjoyed) and a DJ at night. We had a blast and I’m so glad that I did the party here. I had a decorator come to add balloons, and some decor. I was worried that the room would be too small, but it worked out perfectly. Thank you Emilio’s for hosting my special event, we had a great time!“

“Mi especialidad para comer son tacos pastor , asada , pescado ,birria y el ceviche 👍“

“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.“

“They have some of the best food I’ve had in a while in the area! I always get the steak taco bowl and the steak sope’s. It’s always delicious! 10/10… I’ve eaten here more than once and it hits every time ❤️“

“Ta Canijo is such a gem! The food is always fresh and packed with authentic flavor, and I love that they have so many options to choose from. The customer service is just as amazing—everyone is so friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. Definitely one of my favorite spots to eat!“

“I get the chicken quesadillas here all the time, and they are always delicious!“

“I'm from Indiana
Came out here to buy some baseball cards on FB marketplace. Saw Chuck's was a bar and Super Burrito inside 😳 I don't drink, but they had the Cubs game on and I'm eating a steak burrito 🌯 let me just say... Delicious 😋“

“Im waiting for the St. John location to be on Google so i can give another 5 star review. I ordered a simple take out from them and the people there are so nice. I have been a fan of the texas nachos for forever. The togo packaging was perfect - separating hot from cold. Im so happy its closer now 😊“

“Very great food and people“

“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.“
