11 Best Mexican Restaurants in Shawnee

“Ate at the Shawnee location and it was awesome! Fast service AND delicious food. The owners are so friendly. My husband tried the smothered burrito bowl and I had the No tortilla burrito bowl. They were good size portions and a fair price. I'll be a regular!“

“GREAT food but what makes this place really exceptional is the outstanding service. Not only is the wait staff there excellent but in addition, you always see a manager nearby if you should have any problems which I never have after going there for the last 10 years. I highly recommend it especially on their I know I know weekly special days. Great value, great taste, good service. What more could you ask for!“

“Had a very nice first time dining experience this evening. Party of 6. Waiter did a good job all the way around. My Sombrero Burrito was very good and the frozen margarita was just what I needed on this 105 day. I’ll be back.“

“Authentic Mexican food, no joke!

This isn’t your usual Taco Bell or Jose Peppers drive-by. If you want to taste what REAL Mexican homemade food is like, this is where you need to be!

The menudo? Oh, it was *chef's kiss*! Sure, it didn’t have hominy, but trust me, I was too busy slurping it down to care. My husband got Combo #2, and we both left practically doing a happy dance, already planning our next visit!

And the prices? Ridiculously fair! You can literally taste the high-quality ingredients—so fresh it’s like they’ve got an abuela in the back hand-picking them. I mean, we walked in, and there was a lady in the kitchen meticulously plucking oregano stems... for your menudo a FREE garnish.

Oh, and the place is very clean! Floors, tables, chairs and even the decorations. Dusted and wiped.“

“This place has it all. Good food, great atmosphere, helpful servers, good prices and GREAT margaritas. Give it a try, I hope you’ll like it as much as we do.“

“We’ve been to this place several times and have enjoyed various meals, which have mostly been excellent. The portions are huge, including the burritos! The first time I tried the beef burrito, it was amazing—flavorful and perfectly seasoned. However, the second time, it was a bit disappointing as it seemed mostly filled with beans and lacked the flavor of my first experience, resulting in a one star reduction of my rating. Overall, though, this spot has great food, and we’ll definitely be back!“

“This is not your typical taco shop, they specialize in seafood dishes, ceviche specifically. It does have the typical atmosphere of a taco shop, but the food is better imho. I had fish tacos and my friend had the ceviche. We were both impressed by the presentation and flavor of the food and will be back when we are in that neighborhood again. Costs a bit more than your typical taco shop, but worth it.“

“Great food and Chris provided great service! Already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommend!“

“great place to eat, very authentic and flavorful.“

“Tried the State Line location yesterday- great people, friendly service, and amazing food🔥🔥 Ordered the mixed plate to try the chicken and steak. Great taste and so fresh, right off the grill. Bonus points for having the pagers given to you so you can wait in your car for the order! Can’t wait to go back!“

“This place is my preferred one. I visit plenty of restaurants but to this one I keep coming back again and again. The team is very affectionate and the cooking they serve is so good. I am always happy to have a decent meal in this place. Highly recommended.“
