We've rounded up Orion's top Mexican spots for you to try.
“Our local Lake Orion Taco Bell.They recently remodeled and it has a lot less personality inside and honestly I wonder why they would spend the money to change something that was perfectly fine but whatever.The Crunch Wrap with steak is still good but it's the only thing I ever get.“
“When I visited today around 3 they were so busy with a line almost out the door but the staff flew through it with such positive attitudes! The meat was so fresh, cooked and seasoned perfectly! (I got a chx and stk combo bowl). I've never had Chipotle taste so good. Excited to find such a great location close to where I'm staying!“
“Food was GREAT, Service was amazing! Crystal was working my table and she was SUPER nice! Everybody up here is super nice and I will definitely be back and be recommending Mexico Lindo to everyone I know! Everything was clean and the atmosphere was perfect! Thank you guys!“
“Very impressive! Incredibly friendly staff, refreshing to be treated like they really enjoy having you as a guest. Service was great and the food was delicious. We had the fajitas and a combo dish, along with margaritas. A great dining experience where the atmosphere is cool and friendly, the staff is responsive, and the food and drinks are authentic Mexican fare. So close to home! We will be back… a lot!“
“Employees were super nice. Baja tiger shrimp tacos were amazing! Beware if you order the burrito... That thing is a chonker!!!!Parking: Small parking lot. Space is very limited, but that's just because people know where the good food is!“
“My goodness! Oh wow! I’m absolutely surprised how yummy everything I ordered was. Our little boys taking ninja class at the martial art next door to this place. So we decided to give it a try. And that was it! Wow! Malcajete (spelling?) was so amazing, ginormous portion and everything in it was so yummy. Tongue taco was the killer!!!! ??❤️. Even the refried bean! I have tried couple Mexican restaurants, and most of the time, the bean was just alright. This place the bean was great!!!! ???❤️ yummy!“
“I wish I could give more stars. The service was amazing, the staff was very friendly and after placing my order the staff made sure to describe the flavor profile of the medium and hot salsa. Of course I tried both and they both were amazing. I will be coming back for more 100%. I got the street taco dinner with rice and beans, my protein for the tacos was lengua and it was cooked to perfection. Do yourself a favor and stop by for amazing food.“
“These tacos are amazing. Got three different kinds, steak, mahi and Korean BBQ to try all three totally different styles. Steak was cooked perfectly and matched with chimchurri sauce. Mahi had a few different elements that blended perfectly together. Mahi cooked excellent, crispy outside finish and soft inside. Korean BBQ had an awesome tang to it and complimented Korean very well. Staff is super friendly. Great prices too. I’ll be back!“
“I got to say, it might not look like much from outside but this spot packs a lot of flavor. Their service is simple and quick as well as their food is amazing! From their Bria tacos to their regular chorizo this spot does not disappoint. Go check it out, like now!“
“Surprisingly ended up here because one of the other Mexican restaurants we went to closed for the day. Some decent Mexican that can be an alternative to your go to around the area.Chips and salsa: they bring out mild salsa initially, so make sure you ask for hot or green if you want some different flavor. The mild was a bit sweet for my taste.Horchata: the large is huge, share it with your significant other or kiddos. Be aware that there are no refills on refrescas or horchata. Decent amount of cinnamon flavor, not overly sweet. Would get it again.Tacos: I had an al pastor, chorizo and lengua. lengua was tender and tasty. Al pastor was flavorful and slightly sweet from pineapple. Chorizo was a pass for me.My wife had a combination with mole sauce on an enchilada and that had a unique flavor. Nice change up for anyone wanting to try a mole sauce.Looks like they have specials on certain days of the week and I would say that can make it more affordable for those looking to save some money.“
“I love Mexican food. This restaurant is great. It puts other Mexican food restaurants too shame. They have a bull statue out front. It gets your attention. I've drove by for over a year. To everyone, don't drive by. Walk in and order something. Excellent food. I ordered over the phone and picked up. When I saw the inside. Yes, I want to eat inside. Some type of salad/Mexican bar. Nice sit down area, clean and extremely kind staff.“

I wasn't happy at all was very uncomfortable looking at it let alone use it.Otherwise is a five-star place.Please have the bathroom updated especially the toilet stool“
“This place is incredible. Best taco joint I've ever been to. And that includes Arizona where I live and ??. Corrina was wonderful. The Queso Birria is a must try. Carnitas and Asada were spot on. I loved it!! Thank you for an amazing experience.“

“My wife and I lived in San Diego for 4 years and we are avid taco lovers and try just about any taco shop we can find.We stopped here by chance and I'm so glad we did. They have some of the best al pastor I've had in my life. It's definitely up there. Best ive had in Michigan for sure. Will definitely drive 2 hours to go here again. Thank you.“
“Amazingly good food?️❤️ The best Salsa ? The Specialty drink with Green Flame ? Tequila and Strawberry ? was awesome ? Their Chicken Fajitas were really good. Chicken Burrito and Enchiladas Combo was delicious, and for a good price ? Will definitely go back ?“
“Never been here before, just passing through town working at the metro park picked up a "Small" BBQ Chicken Cajun. (The thing is huge and satisfying, able to share it and STILL had me wish I got a bigger pie.)Crust was amazingly fresh flakey, crispy and fluffy at the same time and just an amazing tasting bread. Couldn't let my coworkers say no to a piece after my first slice. They felt the same and this review was written with two brains, not just one. Pie was cooked great, chicken was awesome, Cajun added just the right spice to the BBQ sauce. Portnoy should come try it.Hopefully be back soon to get a bigger size to take home for dinner.“
“Sagebrush is where you bring out-of-towners to if you want to impress them with your local restaurant savviness. The food is awesome and the service is always top-notch.Kid-friendliness: Quality and authentic food choices for kids, not just microwaved Mac and cheese.“
“What's not to love about El Corral? The service and the atmosphere is great and the food is incredible. I love the freshly made salsa bar and their take on pick de gallo, that actually has flavor. I have yet to order something that I did not like. Typically I order (corn tortillas) street tacos or birria, YUM!“
“Food is delicious! Had a burrito bowl and it was so good. Salsa is spicy so wait until you get your drinks before you dive in.Service was fast and timed perfectly.Restrooms were clean and atmosphere was fun and upbeat.Kid-friendliness: 100% kid friendly“
“Fresh fresh FRESH they catered our ladies retreat! Served a variety of salsas (tomatillo I think was one) & loved building our tacos! Rice was fluffy, flavorful & a short grain that was pleasant & yummytasty :) Wish I took a pic“
“For places like this, I go there straight for the food. Brother I tell you what!!!!! the food was straight fire!!!!. Birria tacos were 2x the size of a regular taco. She busted out that taco(s) and I was like “damnnnnn Homie that’s a big taco.” Also, they have Coca-Cola Refresco. Clean as hell too.“
“I've rated this place before. but we all know how things change. Usually for down thumb. Well this place is still ALWAYS Up Thumb! I am not Hispanic. But White. Ya think that matters there? Nope. Have had the door held open for me by patrons and have a special waitress that knows me and i get my Margarita and Shot of Tequila the second i walk in the door. My designated table is by the jukebox. MY SPOT. think they actually keep it clear for me. LOL. great food... good drinks and great staff and patrons. What more could you ask for?By the way...my tab with drinks is usually less then 25 bucks...I leave a 10 buck tip...ya knowwhy? anything i ask for any way i want it I GET it and always GOOD! Think about it for a second...is it worth it? Wont answer that question as we all know how many times we went somplace and paid the big bucks to get a meal we tossed after the first bite!!!“
“The food was excellent well flavored and not hot which is more traditional Mexican Cuisine. Our server was Angel. He is warm, friendly and happy to answer questions. My house Margherita was divine. We are fajita quesadillas with chicken for me and steak for my husband. Both were delicious. We ordered a large bowl of guacamole and sour cream to top them off. The decore was a bit dated but that didn't hamper our dinner in any way. There's multiple TVs showing a varietyW stations. This would be a good place to watch sports. We will definitely be back to try other items on the menu.“
“Had the opportunity to stop into this little restaurant for a photoshoot. While El Guero Taqueria is a set of food trucks as a restaurant, it shares a physical location with De Norte a Sur Mexican Grill in Pontiac at a gas station. The owner, Brenda, is friendly, passionate, and makes some really great food! I would definitely recommend checking them out as it helps support a small business.“
“I went into this location for the first time today, and I will definitely be coming back. Not only the food was great, the service was too. I was served by Briana, She was very friendly and patient when it came down to me ordering my food, it made it a great experience overall!“
“I love this place!! been a few times and sit at the bar. Megan and Lauren are the dynamic duo and give great service. I highly recommend the shredded chicken taco and pork carnitas taco. I usually get the 401 or Blackberry Margarita. Both are great drinks. Will be back in the future.“
“Love love love this place. Went on a Friday night. 1 waitress for the wentire floor. She was incredibly friendly, had fantastic customer service and as moving like she was on fire. My husband and I were amazed. The food (always get the nachos) is always great. They have the best guacamole I've ever had!“
“I wish I took pics. Rice beans and horchata - definitely homemade! I’m really picky about Mexican food. The red salsa could have been better but this place was beautiful, clean, and great service. My ceviche plate was chilled and the taco meat (carne asada and Al pastor) was not dry at all. The shrimp was super clean and fresh. I am very impressed!“
“The food and service are great! My husband and i have tried several different items on their menu and they've all been delicious. They really need a sign at Lapeer Rd, its hard to see at night - we almost missed the entrance the first time coming here.“
