39 Best Mexican Restaurants near Marblehead

“Parents — Amores is a great option for bringing your kids out in town. It’s big enough that you shouldn’t have to stress about a long wait for a table; they have a great kids menu (with French fries if your kids are picky); and adults can enjoy their excellent food and margaritas. Their menu is much better and sophisticated than the typical suburban Mexican restaurant. Definitely better than the options in Salem, last I checked. The service was great too: prompt, friendly, accommodating.“

“This place is a little hidden gem! Very small, cozy, family friendly place to dine. Friendly and wonderful service. Quick and efficient the food and drinks kept coming. Delicious quality Mexican food in the North Shore! Make this a frequent visit, I know I will.“

“I don't know how to describe this place. Then top tier hole on the wall mexican food. You would not expect this out of where its location is. But this is by far the best place to get El. Pastor tacos and berea tacos. Don't be afraid to order anything here. It's all very very good. Extremely polite staff and everything is top to your quality for a reasonable price. Never be afraid of stopping here.“

“This place is incredible, you get there and you feel happy, all the colors and decorations just have an impact on your mood instantly. The food is really really good, it’s authentic and high quality. This place truly makes me feel at home. Also the owners take care of every single detail and they are always improving. Love Esquite taqueria.“

“The empanadas have a nice light texture and flavor, we got two of each. The accompanying sauce was flavorful and spicy, but not too hot. The street corn was off the cob, but delicious and generous enough for 4 people. Everything tastes from scratch.“

“Quality and flavor explodes from this place. I had Surdita (pork meat bits mixed with pork skin) in a red enchilada for the first time, and it was outstanding. My wife went with the carnitas plate, also loaded with flavor. The crazy part about this tiny, yet bustling taqueria was the cost. For nearly the same price as the food you might get from a famous fast food burrito chain, this authentic, tasty, and unforgettable little corner of Beverly gets the prize.“

“We were leaving an appointment Salem and caught a glimpse of the inside while we drove by, and we thought it was very unique, so we pulled over to check it out to our surprise. This place was beautifully designed and the environment was incredible, so we decided to stay to have some drinks and food and it was all great, right down to the service. We ordered some vegetarian tacos, and my wife ordered some meat ones, and we loaded everything about this placedefinitely. Check it out when you can. There's also one in haverhill, which I was surprised. Now. I don't have to go to salem if I ever want to go back“

“While in Salem my boyfriend and I were starving and looking for a place to eat. The fact that there was no line during tourist season almost made me not want to eat here but after finding out they would cater to my picky boyfriend we stayed and I’m so HAPPY we stayed. The food was phenomenal! We had fajitas and a quesadilla if I’m ever in the area I’ll be back. Do yourself a favor n come EAT“

“I am from LA and so have been able to eat at great taquerias. Super Taco's tacos are better. Pretty unbelievable, as most of the tacos I have eaten in Massachusetts have not been good, and the Willows is a strange place to find the best tacos ever. But it's true. Chicken tinga, carnitas, fish, even ground beef -- they are all delicious. And as good as the proteins are, the corn tortillas they use, which I think they grill for bit, are amazing and may be what puts their tacos over the top. I can't speak about anything besides their tacos, because I won't get anything else there.Thank you Super Taco!!! You will be greatly missed over the winter.“

“The food is superb and Abigail and Kaylani are amazing servers! They are so kind and even reserved a special spot for us when we called ahead! The drinks are top notch and the service is always efficient and excellent.The food is great and Abigail and Kaylani are amazing waitresses!

“I’ve been here about half a dozen times now, and it’s just perfect. I’ve lived in Texas, I’ve lived in East Boston and I’ve been looking for a place that is this authentic and consistent in terms of flavor/quality. It never disappoints. The specials are always on point, too. Highly recommend! Martin (owner) is the best !!!!“

“Everything we have ordered has been fabulous - burritos, quesadillas, tacos, beans, enchiladas.....Homemade chips and guacamole are the best! All food is always fresh and tasty, and carefully prepared and packaged when we get delivery. The owners and staff are wonderful! Highly recommend!“

“We’ve been going here for a few years now and we love the food and the service, most of the time is top notch. But tonight, Sunday, they had karaoke, we love music and we love the atmosphere but they had the volume cranked up so loud we couldn’t talk at all. We asked if they could turn it down just a little so we could talk and hear each other while we ate and we got a, No. I was surprised she said no, because we couldn’t even talk or hear her and she couldn’t hear us ordering unless we were yelling, so we had to point to the menu for her to take our order. If you like to talk at dinner and don’t want a pounding headache then don’t go on a Sunday or any day they’re having karaoke, if we ever go back and the karaoke is going we’re turning around and leaving, it was ridiculously loud.“

“We ordered delivery here at work, and the restaurant is within walking distance to my job. When the delivery came, all he had to do was walk for 3 mins on the same side of the street. It was a quick prompt delivery service. Nice guy who seemed pleasant to delivery our breakfast. I have not been inside this establishment as of yet.“

“It is a nice restaurant. The service was good. The quantity and presentation of the food was good. Taste wise just average. The salsa had an odd taste. One person in our party said this was their favorite Mexican restaurant. So try it out and see for yourselfParking: This restaurant is in north shore mall so there is plenty of parking.“

“Food - 5/5We got the esquite, al pastor tacos, carne asada tacos, birria tacos, and al pastor quesadillas.As a Californian, I’ve really missed good Mexican food, which is a big “missing” in Boston. I especially enjoyed the al pastor - great flavor and texture. Salsa is bomb too - nice and smokey!Ambiance - 4/5The restaurant is small and doesn’t have indoor seating. Definitely brings you home to California or any other place with Mexican food.Service - 5/5Service is fast and staff is friendly and warm. They mainly speak Spanish, so be prepared to whip out your Spanish food lingo.Other notes:1. There is paid street parking that’s easily accessible right next to the restaurant.2. The beach is half a block down if you want to find a place to eat.“

“The lady at the cash counter is very warm and sweet. Always welcomes customers with a bright smile on her face. I love returning to this location for the very same reason. The portions sizes are not always consistent though. But I love being a regular here“

“I have been here a few times now. Service is kinda scattered with takeout orders taking a bit of time to be fulfilled. Other than that, the food is good. It's nice to have another takeout restaurant in this area. Overall, a good place to grab takeout on that random day you just want to walk down the street to get food.“

“I love the beans here they are delicious. I drive by this restaurant all the time and my boyfriend and I finally came here a few months ago and the food was amazing. The guy at the register was really nice and accommodating. This is a must try !“

“The service was expedient & excellent with regular check-ins to ensure customer satisfaction. Regarding the food, you more than get your money's worth @ Howling Wolf Taqueria, alongside great background music & sports across (3) HD televisions that contributed to a fun, enjoyable vibe. ?#HowlingWolfTaqueria #DeliciousMexicanFood“

“Foods awesome but it's been cold lately even if you order inside and go, customer service has gone down why have a phone and not pick up people call ahead to pick up there food and go because of no parking, I had you at 5⭐'s but I brought it down to 4⭐'“

I e would definitely go back because of the integrity of the GM Steve. Thank you! Food and drinks were good excellent.“

“We went to this restaurant for 2 reasons, first we wanted to celebrate my daughter's achievement and also was highly recommended for the hotel.The service was great! Everyone has a big smile and friendly! The restaurant has this kind of familiar feeling, which makes us feel warm. The food was very good.... frozen margarita was great, guacamole and chips were great, tacos al pastor a little sweet for me, but also very tasty and the churros was the start of the night for us!If you want to go, please go with a big appetite because the size of the dishes is big!“

“Ordered for the first time. The portions are HUGE and the food is absolutely delicious!!!! We ordered the grilled chicken with rice and beans meal and it’s big enough for a family of 4. We also got a 6 piece chicken tenders with fries- the tenders are huge and deliciously juicy and the fries are awesome. A+++ So happy you are in Worcester!“

“Came here as a recommendation from someone working in the touristy part of Salem and I am so glad we did! The reviews saying there is a communication barrier are true, but don't let that scare you away. Friendly staff, just walk up to the food area if you want food and point at which items look good. We ended up with a huge plate of rice, beans, and some sort of beef dish for less than $15, it was enough for 2 people! Great food and great experience.“

“This is my favorite place in Lynn. The food is authentic, the service warm and the location easy to get to. I have been there several times and the experience was consistent and high quality. If you want real central American cuisine, this is the place to go!!!“

“This place has always been on point, but I ordered a pepperoni pizza and El Estadio and look at my pepperoni picture. It looked like and old cheese pizza that was already pre-cut and then they added the pepperoni before sending it to me. Could not believe it.“

“Came here on a Sunday , was good service and food was a good , cheap drinks with flights from 15 to 55$$ and boii do you feel them lol. But overall great customer service. Only thing I would add is music they have TVs but tunes would be great in an atmosphere like thisParking: Not bad parking but different not easy on a weekend“

“Love this place, both times I’ve dined here I have had an amazing experience! Their margaritas are delicious, not to mention strong. Service wonderful and staff very friendly. The chicken mole enchiladas are my favorite. Can’t wait to come back!“

“Chipotle has let me down many a time…. I was nervous to trust Doba with an online order hahaha but honestly they nailed it. I showed up a little early, they apologized for the wait which was mere seconds of me arriving… they even threw in chips (maybe it comes with the guac and queso I ordered but I wasn’t expecting chips and we had some home in case). Both burritos had everything we ordered on them and the service was good. Always consistent.“
