11 Best Mexican Restaurants near East Grand Forks

“Lots of menu options!! Delish delish delish food, quick turnaround, and friendly staff. The dining area was smaller than average so not sure how large groups would fare. Our table was very wobbly/uneven which made our water glasses dance frequently. Only gave 4 stars for service as I asked for chicken but got beef (in the end it didn't matter as it was delicious anyway) and we had to wait and ask for water refills. Definitely would revisit next time we are in town!“

“The "Zep" grinder/sub is really good. The bread they use is very fresh and perfect for a sandwich. Crust is just tough enough to not fall apart under the weight of all the filling but the interior is soft and delicious. We got it with all their sauces and I was not disappointed. The deli meat (especially the ham) was a really good quality, decent flavor, good texture.Potato skins w/ cheese and taco meat were what you'd expect, no glorious revelation but taste good and better with sour cream.Their fried items were not over or under done and appeared to be made in new/clean oil.Price was affordable (compared to fast food it was down right cheap) and the location was VERY clean. Staff was friendly.Tacos were the only thing that wasn't particularly notable.Swung by once or twice and they were closed when I thought they'd be open but besides that they're definitely worth a visit. Or two; or three if you live less than a mile away.Parking: Lots of space.Kid-friendliness: Family friendly for sure. Our little one is a big fan.“

“Amazing past couple experiences here, food comes out fast after ordering, good portions, good atmosphere.Kid-friendliness: I loved bringing the little ones, it’s lots to take in and look at for them, they enjoyed the experience as much as we did. They have car seat slings and high chairs too.“

“We tried El Gordito for the first time yesterday and it was absolutely delicious! I never had eaten pupusas before, and I can already tell they're gonna be my usual. Our food was fresh, hot, and flavorful, with large portions for reasonable prices. This is a restaurant that's 100% deserving of all the hype it gets. I can't wait to go back!“

“Fun little place to stop in and grab a quick bite or perfect after a late night out. Large variety from sandwiches to tacos, with gluten-free options to choose from too. Gluten-free options are clearly marked on the menu, which includes the hardshell tacos that were good. The red sauce has a great kick to it, so if you like a bit of spice, I would recommend getting it. Great place, with even better prices!Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free options are clearly marked on the menu.“

“We enjoy eating at Paradise. Chips and salsa are free and the wait staff are very up beat and friendly always willing to help if there's a problem. They have seating for whatever you want never will you leave hungry.Parking: They have the regular parking lot by the building and an overflow lot across the street.Kid-friendliness: Good for birthday party. Plenty of spots where you won't interfere with others that are dining.Wheelchair accessibility: They are a one floor building and have tables you can fit right up to.“

“This place is awesome! The food is always great especially the chips and salsa! The only thing I wish this restaurant had is delivery on Uber eats or DoorDash! I really hope they consider this as I bet they would get a lot more customers to enjoy this wonderful food!“
