15 Best Mexican Restaurants in Merrillville

“A friend recommended Las Jacarandas for great Mexican food in the area. We ordered a ton of items to take out. Was not disappointed whatsoever! Tried an assortment of items (chile relleno dinner, variety of tacos such as beef, fish, steak, pork, chorizo, chicken mole) and everything was excellent! The sides (rice, refried beans) and the sauces were all excellent and better than any other Mexican restaurant. Cannot wait to eat in next time!..This place rocks!!“

“Me and my husband loved it. A nice place to have a date night, or eat lunch. They have a nice menu for you to choose from. The prices are good. Our server was really nice. They even had a photo booth where you can take pictures. And their drinks were pretty good.“

“Amazing food, amazing staff, and amazing service. A place I will continue to go for years to come.“

“Excellent food, we didn’t have the belly space to try the chicken, ground beef or veggies tacos. The pastor and Barbacoa were top notch. The steak was good too but I would do the barbacoa over the steak. The Guacamole was thick and delicious with sauces that were flavorful and complimentary to the food.“

“Went here to give it a go for the first time and it did not disappoint! Ordered the chicken burrito for myself and my boyfriend got the steak burrito. Both were delicious and flavorful, as well as PACKED as you can see from the photos- they’re big burritos! Fair pricing for the amount of food you get. We will be back to try other items on the menu for sure. The girl at the register who also took my orders was very nice as well !“

“I had one of the most wonderful experiences there!

I felt like such a nuisance because I was going back back-and-forth about whether I wanted a refund or not.

For context, I was picking up an order for a pregnant friend and trying to navigate their cravings as well as a busy staff.

My manager was very nice, even threw in a cookie, she’s very understanding, even though I was confusing her!

If you’re willing to wait for quality food, then you’ll have the best meal ever!“
