About Tarahumara Mexican

Tarahumara Mexican is a family-owned business in Kansas City, recognized for its authentic and affordable Mexican cuisine. The restaurant is small, featuring three tables, and many customers choose carry-out orders, including pick-up service and drive-thru. The menu offers comfort Mexican food with generous portions resembling traditional dishes. Favorites include Sopes, tamales, and the delicious stuffed peppers. Unique offerings such as choriqueso, menudo, and beef soup set it apart from other Mexican restaurants. The friendly staff, including the owner's grandkids, provide service with a good attitude, even if they are not the most cheerful. While parking can be limited during busy times, the restaurant is an excellent lunch option, with great value for customers. Jarritos brand sodas are available, and although there are nightly specials, the restaurant closes at 7 PM, so it's best to come early. The dining area is clean and festive, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Customers often praise the fresh, flavorful food like picadillo burritos, chicken roll ups, beef burritos with beans and cheese, chili verde, and Rojo. Most burritos contain mayo, so diners should specify if they don't want it. The menu is full of options, making it easy to find something enjoyable. For dessert, churros come highly recommended if there’s room left. Tarahumara Mexican is truly one of the hidden gems in the area.
