50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Wakefield

“The absolute best authentic tacos EVER! Several choices for meat and SO well seasoned! They have American style tacos too if you need all the extra stuff like tomato, cheese and lettuce but their traditional style is just AWESOME!“

“Family run restaurant located in an industrial area of Wakefield. Great food at good prices. Because they are off the beaten path, there is usually no waiting for a table.“

“This was the best Mexican restaurant i have ever been too. Classic margarita was amazing, 3 different tacos and the skirt steak with fresh quacmole, beans and rice. The 3 sauces with chips were delish“

“THIS PLACE WENT FROM BEING ONE OF THE BEST GEMS TO A PLACE THAT FEELS SO UNCOMFORTABLE TO EVEN SET A FOOT IN. I'VE BEEN TO THIS PLACE FOR OVER 10 YEARS, SINCE PANDEMIC HAVE NOT GONE. WE FINALLY WENT, THE MINUTE I WALKED IN THE PERSON AT CASHIER SAID WHEN YOUR READY TO ORDER YOU COME HERE, BLINDED BY IT AS IS A RESTAURANT NOT A FAST FOOD SPOT I LOOKED AT HER AND ASK FOR THE MENU SHE LOOKS AT ME AND POINTS INFRONT OF HER TO GO GET IT MIND YOU, THERE ARE 3 OTHER PEOPLE BEHIND HER WHO WORK THERE .....I LET IT PASS AND TRIED TO GIVE THIS PLACE A SECOND CHANCE COMING BACK THE FOLLOWING WEEK AS THE FOOD ACTUALLY WAS GOOD THE WEEK PRIOR. WELL SERVICE WAS ONLY WORSE THIS TIME AROUND, THE WOMAN AT CASHIER LOOKED BOTHER BY JUST BEING THERE TAKING OUR ORDER AS THE TIME PRIOR OTHER PEOPLE BEHIND HER WHO ALSO WORKED THERE STANDING JUST THERE. WE GET OUR FOOD REALIZING I GOT CORN TORTILLAS ASKED IF THEY CAN BE SWITCHED TO FLOURONE OF THE EMPLOYEES RESPONSE WELL IF YOU DON'T EAT THEM THERE GOING TO THE TRASH AND I AM LOOKING AT HER LIKE OKAY IS FINE CAN I PAY FOR AN EXTRA ORDER OF TORTILLAS OF FLOUR. THE AMOUNT OF DISPLEASSURE THESE WOMAN HAVE BEING THEIR IS SO UNCOMFORTABLE DON'T SPEND YOUR MONEY WHERE YOU DON'T WANT TO BE SERVED, ASIDE FROM THE FOOD FEELING SO RUSH THIS TIME AROUND AS WE GOT THERE AT 8 THEY CLOSED AT 10PM. I UNDERSTAND RESTAUTANT INDUSTRY IS NOT EASY BUT FOR ME TO GO TO AND SPEND MY MONEY IN A PLACE THAT FEELS SO FORCED TO WORK IS NOT WORTH MY TIME NOR MONEY.“

“Yes I am received very good attention from the people who are working there and the food was very good!“

“Great food but lately El Jefe's is taking a hit on bad reviews due to @GrubHub's poor ordering system with algorithm issues which I have brought to their attention, and seems they still haven't fixed since I placed an order months prior. On 3 separate occasions on the same date and time I received my order incorrect. When I compared the order from my GrubHub account against the receipt received from El Jefe's, it was determined I was missing many items from my burrito bowl. I contacted GrubHub in which they kept refunding me, and I also mentioned the issue. I ordered El Jefe's 2 more times and the same error occurred both times. I could see once they mess up the order due to reading it wrong but not 3x. El Jefe's only puts an order together based on the ordering slips they receive from GrubHub, so if something is off with GrubHub's ordering system that is what the restaurant is receiving and thus creating the order from. As much as these food delivery services are ripping off these restaurants, they got a nerve to make the restaurant take accountability for their mess ups and ordering errors. They're already scamming these vendors out of $$$ and continue to affect these companies in a negative manner. Time for these vendors to go back to the old delivery ways and cut the greedy middle man! These good delivery services are a total rip off with their high fees, whacked discounts that don't add up, and lack of customer service.“

“I just had the hottest meal I’ve ever had. The waiter said “That is very very spicy”…I told him to say “very” three times to warn customers. The meal was AWESOME!!! Thank you 👍“

“I have been to Patzacuaro no less than 40 times and every single time the food is phenomenal. The servers could not be more polite and they have an excellent spicy margarita. I go out to eat quite a bit and this is my favorite restaurant in the greater boston area.“

“I absolutely LOVE this place! Their homemade coffee, El Café Especial, is something truly special! ☕️❤️ It’s made with milk and is sooo delicious, rich, and comforting. Definitely a must-try!

The chilaquiles are incredible honestly, some of the best I’ve ever had! So flavorful and delicious. And the steak and eggs were absolutely yummy as well. 🥩🍳

Everything was fresh, flavorful, and made with so much care. If you’re looking for an amazing breakfast with delicious homemade coffee, this is definitely a place you need to try!

El Café Especial + chilaquiles = perfection! ☕️🌶️🍳“

“the best mexican food“

“Good place for breakfast Roxana is a great server 🫶👍😋😋“

“I desperately needed to use the restroom and stopped into this wonderful restaurant. It was spotless and the owner is warm and kind. The bathroom is beautiful! I got their house made hibiscus drink and churros. Both were delicious. I'd love to come back for dinner, it's clear that everything made here is made with care.“

“Spending our 21st anniversary in Boston. Margaritas Revere really took care of us. If we ever make it back to Boston will definitely be dining at Margaita's Revere. Treated us like family. Sheila and Sean are awesome!! Thank you for making our anniversary amazing!!“

“I went here with a friend for a quick dinner before going out to watch the World Cup game, but unfortunately we had to stay longer because there was a bad storm. We didn’t mind at all though since they had the game on the TVs and the food and drinks were delicious! I had the pozole and a few different margarita flavors. My friend ate the fajitas and loved them. Will definitely go back!“

“Absolutely delicious and super friendly and fast service! Got the birria tacos and would definitely recommend and go here again! My friends loved it as well!“

“Warm hospitality you’d expect from a Cheers-like neighborhood bar where the staff knows your name & greets you with a smile Kudos to Jonathan for his kindness & recommending the Torta“

“Not sure if the opinion of a very pasty Mainer counts for much;but the tacos and guacamole were the best we have ever had! Food was great and the service was phenomenal! We had the sweetest waitress! Will be back as soon as possible! ❤️❤️“

“good food, staff is good ppl. 👍🏻“

“La Victoria has long been a go-to option if I need a quick and affordable lunch option, but this past week I got catering platters from them for the Friday night dinner for our out of town guests for my son's bar mtizvah. Everything was delicious, and it was easy for people to mix and match what they wanted to eat -- a real benefit for feeding a crowd. Alex at La Victoria made the ordering process easy! We will definitely do this again!!“

“We are ecstatic that Quillos is in East Arlington! The food has the look and taste of a home cooked Mexican meal! We feel nourished by their food.“

“Chipotle is good but QDOBA is definitely better. I visit this location almost every week and the staff are very friendly, keeps the place very clean and the food is fresh. 6 or so sauces are the best and gives various flavors and makes the food very delicious“

“Delicious authentic Mexican food, love the tostadas, tacos and everything!“

“First time visiting. We visit a lot of Mexican restaurants in and around the North Shore, and have our favorites. This is for sure a new favorite for us. The customer service at the location in Malden was excellent, our waitress was so polite, personable, and the right amount of attentive. The restaurant was spotless, I mean, SPOTLESS, including the restroom. The rest of the staff checked in, and the food was excellent.“

“Their AL Pastor tacos are excellent my goto.“

“My husband and I have been to Orale twice now and had a great experience both times. The food is delicious — I especially love the birria tacos. Everyone is super friendly, and the service is quick. Definitely recommend! We’ll be back.“

“I ordered my daughters 6th birthday cake from La Casa Del Pandebono and it literally the best experience I’ve ever had with any business. Not only was the custom cake beautiful and delicious, they provided a level of exceptional customer service that I didn’t even know existed. The “Tangled” cake included a beautiful edible gold crown as it’s center piece, and it was packaged separately. Despite my best efforts to handle it carefully, I accidentally broke it the night before the birthday party. I texted the owner asking if he has recommendations for me to reassemble it (knowing it was unlikely, but I was desperate). He immediately responded and asked for my address, letting me know he’d deliver a new one when he closed the store (I live in another town). I was shocked at his generosity and beyond grateful. As an expression of gratitude, a sent him an additional tip which he politely attempted to reject (I wouldn’t allow it…haha). In return, he delivered not only the grown, but an order of birria tacos and an empanada (which I was admiring when I went to pick up the cake) - literally the best tacos I’ve ever had. I cannot emphasize how touched I was by this experience. La Casa Del Pandebono is a rare gem - baked goods that are truly a work of art, and incredible food that is only surpassed by the unbelievable customer service. I will be a customer for life.“

“First time, wife and I had chicken nachos and tacos de birria. Everything was delicious and great. Definitely going back and this is our new place 😊“

“Wonderful place to eat on our trip to Boston. Went with my dad and then took my wife there 3 days later for a different experience. Owner was kind and friendly. Birthday party was in the middle room and the whole restaurant sang along.“

“The New Crash Test Dummies and Dorilocos!!!!“

“Micah took great care of us as we moved from a group of 6 to 8 and then to 10. He was quick, responsive, and so great at anticipating needs. The esquites were very good and the tradicional tacos were also quite tasty! The pitcher of prickly pear margaritas was delicious.“

“The food's great! The atmosphere is great! And one of the servers, Maria, is always pleasant company!“

“The best fresh tortillas I've had in a long time, filled with generous portions of lengua/cabeza/al pastor (all perfectly cooked) and served with delicious salsas. You just can't beat it. I thought the meat was a little under salted but...they got salt. It's a taco, you can work this out. Will be going back as soon as I can find an excuse to to try the birria.“

“I’m from Los Angeles and this ranked with some of the best Mexican food there.“

“Not as glamorous atmosphere as the chain restaurants, but authenticity is 100%.
Everything on the menu is good, even American food offerings for the picky eater.

Pick up or dine in. Dinning area is small but always very clean.“

“Good vibe best corn on the cob with chili powder and a hit of tacos I like the tacos al pastor and tripa tacos 😋“

“Buenos precios y sobre todo buena calidad en sus distintos platos“

“Buena atención y rico sabor de la comidas y licor margaritas muy buenas los Mojico deliciosos“

“THIS IS IT!!! As a San Diegan I have tried everywhere in boston and enjoyed great Salvadoran, Honduran, and Puerto Rican food but have not found great Baja Mexican or even good Mexican in general that remind me of home. This is the spot. This brought tears to my eyes on homesick day. I just need them to sell carne asada in their catering section or by the pound and I’d purchase weekly. Thank you for your service 🫡 this is truly the one thing I’m missing in my life having moved to Boston.“

“Used the Toast App to order but it put the wrong location. I immediately called the location and asked them to cancel and they said ok. A week later, the transaction was never charged back. Bad business

Edit: I was refunded after working with management.“

“Excellent food and service“

“first time there and the food was 😋“
