50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Fridley

“If only the chilitos could be meat free. I sorely miss them. The black bean quesadillas are amazing, and the salsa always tastes remarkably fresh. The tortillas are light and not "bread-y" like other chains. I wish this chain would become more widespread. The quality is over the top, but I wish the dining area were most comfortable.“

“fantastic food. I've never had a bad meal here.“

“We like this Taco Bell and order quite often because of the convenient location, reasonable prices, friendly employees and accurate orders.

Vegetarian options: There are a few options for vegetarians but this could be improve with more selections to try.

Dietary restrictions: I like that you can easily find the nutrition info on the Taco Bell website.

Kid-friendliness: My kids like the menu options.“

“10/10“

“Everything we’ve had from Nixta is just so good. More than once we’ve said “this is the best ______ I’ve ever had” about various menu items. Cant recommend enough.“

“The birria ramen is in a class by itself. I dined at the Uptown location and the food was excellent and the service was great. Even with a language barrier we worked it out! Good service is at an all-time low so it was refreshing to be treated w such kindness and consideration. Thanks and we'll be back!“

“This place is the BEST. Ever since their arrival to my neighborhood in North Loop, my life has gotten better!!! The food, the atmosphere, the staff, the QUALITY & FRESHNESS - unmatched! I love taking my family & friends here. Best place with the best people working here! You won’t regret it.“

“Finally found a Mexican restaurant as good as the taquerias in California! The carne asada was well seasoned and the campechano taco with cactus was amazing. The California burrito was extremely large and had a sauce and cheese on the outside of the tortilla - that was unexpected. It also had BLACK beans, not mushy pinto beans!! A couple of the salsas had a good bit of spice to them. Definitely recommend!! Each table had real flowers in a little jar - that just goes to show that they are doing that little bit extra to make it nice! Also enjoyed the fried ice cream.

Parking: Parking is shared among the strip mall businesses. Although the parking lot was busy we got a spot right by the door

Kid-friendliness: They have a kids menu. There is upbeat Spanish music playing and the inside just has a fun vibe in general

Wheelchair accessibility: The entrance is a bit of a tight L corner with an inside and outside door. I can imagine this could be hard to navigate unless the doors are held open. All the tables are fairly low down. The bathroom was a bit on the smaller side - one room with one toilet - with a standard door not a wide door“

“The food was incredible and our server Emily was amazing! Do not skip the guac!“

“So I have drove by here at least 100 times in the last 2-3 months. I have wondered, I have mentioned it to the boyfriend, and I always kept going cause they looked so busy. Tonight we stopped!! It was so worth it, I thought I had ordered something other than what I got, (I did order what I got) but they offered to get me what I wanted to order, I'm so glad I said no I will eat this, (the Carnita Torta) it was amazing and so filling. I can not wait to try something else. Let me mention as well it was within an hour of closing and we were welcomed in as if they just opened. (That is so impressive these days.) Everyone was so kind and welcoming. The price was right, the food was amazing, and the service was so welcoming I felt like I had been going there for years, come to find out they just opened this past May 2022. Panchos really reminded me of a place I went to while in Cabo... Keep up the great work. We will be back sooner than you think cause they are open for breakfast too. If you haven't tried Panchos yet, stop what you are doing and go! Go for Breackfast, lunch or dinner! You will not be disappointed.“

“Great staff, delicious food, and fun drinks!“

“Found this restaurant randomly. Was taken by surprise by how fresh and hot the food came out. We enjoyed a carne asada burrito, birria tacos and carne asada fries. Definitely stopping by again. Staff was extremely kind, welcoming and attentive.“

“Amazing food, I lived in Mexico and this restaurant is authentic. Kiddos to the owner for making it a fun, wonderful place“

“when I'm too busy to cook, I swing by and order up my favorite veggie burrito. Fast, fresh and delish.. every...time!“

“Great food and the staff is the best!“

“Strawberry coconut dream is quite sweet definitely a good balance of coconut and strawberry flavors (heavily). Tacos are on the larger quantity side. Sesame Chicken taco is crispy, tangy, with a good kick of spice. Al pastor taco is good, tangy with the bit of pineapple. Carnitas taco is very savory and juicy. The corn tortillas are nice and soft. Definitely have the sesame last because it overwhelms the other flavors. The sweet corn cake is super soft, a very light cornbread flavor. Elote is good, simple and yummy.“

“Great tacos!! Delicioso! Will be back!!!“

“Wow...what an IMPRESSIVE dining experience! It's been a long time since we have enjoyed a night out so much. Food 'Molcajete Mexicano' was packed full of flavor and Jorge (bar tender) who waited on us was EXCEPTIONALLY kind; made us feel more like family vs patrons. And the margarita 'Texas Jumbo' was super delish! All of the staff we encountered were incredibly gracious and prompt to respond to any request. We will be back! Bravo El Loro!“

“I tried Que Taco for the first time..the location in New Hope off of Bass Lake Road. The handmade tortillas are excellent and the Pozole as one of the best I have had...very authentic. It was so good we went back the next day to try the chilaquiles and machete. All very good!“

“Went here on the 4th of July for dinner,one word...AMAZING!!!“

“Always fantastic food and great service! The Monticello location specifically is awesome - I had ordered nachos for pickup and they waited to make them so they wouldn’t get soggy….they didn’t have to do that, but the customer service is just that good“

“Excellent service. Clean atmosphere. Had amazing fajitas, beans and rice. Homemade chips and salsa were divine. Pisco Sour was AMAZING! Don’t forget the Tres leches !!“

“Have been here about 3-4 times since it opened, always get the Verdes Enchillada Platter. Very yummy! Could easily be 2 meals but I always woof it all down! Nice having a Mexican food place in Dinkytown/on campus. Gave it 5 stars and 4 for atmosphere (only because sometimes the music is a little loud).Also their reward program is great, just got like $5 off (had 54 points), and that’s from just 4 visits!“

“awesome burritos, street tacos were excellent“

“Service was top notch! Food came out quick and hot. They have a great happy hour. Will be back. Only thing I was bummed about was that they didn’t have the breakfast available on Saturday. Burria tacos were a top notch substitute

Kid-friendliness: They allow kids.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wide walkways, easy parking and plenty of low-top tables“

“Everything about it was top notch. Will definitely be going back.“

“The food is very good, only they also have to update the prices because the menu has one and when charging another. There is variety. They sell tamales, roast beef and various dishes although at first I thought they were just tacos ? but very good flavor ??“

“they were super sweet and the food came super fast! The food was pretty good but a bit expensive! Family friendly and good drink options as well!“

“excelente atención,muy buena comida un 7“

“Thank you for the burrito bowl at the backpack event at cedar field! So good!!! ♥“

“Often, lovely food cooked simply can be the best. That was my experience at Chilango. Fish tacos with a side of charred peppers and onions plus a side of red rice. Staff are trying really hard. Give ‘em a chance.
They have a great mezcal selection too!“

“I was greeted the moment I walked in. He was very friendly and let me sample the drinks to decide which one I wanted! I got the strawberry and it was amazing! I ordered the birria tacos and they were out of this world amazing! Definitely going back to try some more of the menu!“

“Love this place! I always have a shredded beef dish of some sort. I know it's homemade as a couple of times I have found a bay leaf inside my burrito or taco. Good thing I always add a bit of salsa to my stuff and check. I love sitting at the bar and trying the 3 different salsas that are available as a help yourself buffet style along with delicious chips. Love the margaritas but now I am spoiled, I tried one with Milagro silver tequila on the rocks. It is excellent! The Columbia Heights locale is my favorite, and I have tried each of the others! I have yet to try the patio in the summertime, so I can't tell you about it. The stained glass windows are amazing! Busy bustling place! I love it! And the staff is excellent! If I want to change an option on the menu, the staff is very accommodating. I would give this place 5 stars! I always take family and friends to La Casita Mexican Restaurant - Columbia Heights, MN when they come to visit!“

“Very good food in st.francis! I’m usually picky with Mexican food and they were so good.defiantly authentic and what I’ve been looking for!“

“I made an impulse stop at the Central Ave location when I was running errands in the area a few months ago. Everything is so good...the ingredients are fresh, and the service is always super fast. I've been back several more times and am always impressed.“

“Food was excellent ! Prices were a little high but feel it’s 100000% justified considering every single thing is hand made. All the sauces, salsas, tortillas, etc. Had carnitas gorditas that were so light and airy, and red enchiladas with proper homemade sauce. Will definitely be back.

Parking: Maybe 12 spots“

“So my friend told me about this little unassuming taco joint, and I decided to try it. Omg, the food is on point! Tastes like homemade. The ladies were very sweet and enjoyable. I was nervous at first because it's tiny and dated, but the food is amazing, and the sauce they give you on the side is so good. Two tacos, a tamale and a drink, only cost me $12! You don't find these prices anymore. I'll be back and I'm bringing friends!“

“I love their street tacos and friendly service!!“

“I just went there for the first time today and loved it! The pupusas were amazing! I'll definitely be back.“

“The almuerzos from Homi are delicious!“

“muy rico sabor en la comida y una muy buena atención mi familia quedó muy contenta de aver venido a comer aquí bendiciones“

“Great food and atmosphere!“

“All three of us went to dinner tonight and had a truly memorable and excellent meal. We had not been to Salsa à la Salsa since they were on Nicollet Avenue and now I regret that we have been away for so long. I had the Pollo en Mole Poblano, H had the Pollo con Napolitos and J had the Tacos de Cameron. I’m a real fan of mole, but I don’t always love every mole I have. This was one of, if not the, best moles I have ever eaten. It was absolutely sublime. I used my tortillas to sop every last drop of the exquisite sauce! The black bean tamal that came with my meal was as light as a feather and just melted in your mouth. H’s chicken dish was flavorful and very tender, and the frijoles negro were expertly prepared. J tried both and said they were both delicious, but she really loved her shrimp tacos. The corn tortillas must have been freshly made – light, soft, perfect. H had the pineapple tamal for dessert and J and I had the orange flan. It was honestly the best Mexican food we’ve had in a very long time, and the best meal of recent memory. I honestly could have eaten that mole all night long. We won’t be waiting nearly as long for a return visit. 10/10!“

“Delicious. The tacos were very fresh and juicy, I added the red sauce and it was so good. Amazing customer service, the lady that took my order was so sweet. Overall 5 stars, great food.“
