9 Best Tex-Mex Restaurants near New Orleans

“Wild South is the best place to enjoy a cozy, delicious meal focused on Southern cuisine.
We went on a Wednesday night the week before Christmas, so it was slower than normal, which allowed us to sit at the chef's table and get unfettered attention from the staff and chefs. We ordered the 5 course prefix menu, and everything came perfectly timed, and perfectly portioned, to the point where we left satisfied but not overly full. I paired this with their Sherry flight, which allowed me to experience a wide range of styles they have to offer.
The first course was an escabeche-esque snapper, eaten in a rice cracker. The second course was an ode to New England style chowder. Both items were not listed on the menu at the time.
We were interrupted by an intermezzo of uni and trout roe topped chicken schnitzel bites, followed by the vegetable course of broccolini, carrots and peppers, topped with a pumpkin XO sauce, and goat creme fraiche.
The main course was a brined and one-week dry-aged pork chop, with radicchio and sweet potatoes.
Pre-dessert was a refreshing scoop of strawberry sorbet, and dessert was a nod to chocolate mint ice cream, but with merengue and toasted sesame, along with Creole cream cheese custard with strawberries and poached carrots.
Overall we had an amazing time, enjoying our camaraderie with the chefs and staff, and would highly recommend going back and enjoying a meal with friends. We will definitely be back when we return to New Orleans.“

“Juan's Catering absolutely hit it out of the park with our HUGE catering order for our company. What truly impressed us was the level of service. The staff was incredibly friendly, helpful, and attentive to our needs. They went above and beyond to ensure that everything ran smoothly.

If you're looking for a catering company that delivers on both taste and service, look no further than Juan's Catering. We highly recommend them and will definitely be using them again in the future.“

“Tex Mex joints don't necessarily come to mind as must visit restaurants when in New Orleans, but Superior Grill is just that for me. Take the St.Charles streetcar from the CBD/FQ, enjoy the scenery and hop off at Foucher for great Tex mex food and amazing margaritas. The go-to order is a top shelf margarita (half frozen and half rocks) and any one of the fajita offerings. Worth the trip to the Garden District.“

“Had lunch today and it was excellent, as was our server! We had the smoked pork taco salad and it’s enough for 3 meals, it’s probably one of the best salads in the city. And the honey bbq wings were delicious! Will definitely be back and it was great to see management presence. Marc stopped by our table a few times. Highly recommend!“

“Good food at a good price.“
