48 Best Mexican Restaurants near South Saint Paul

“Wonderful food and service was great. Highly recommend“

“Two linked reasons to visit: the store is exceptionally complete, with a wonderful meat cutting department!
The cafe has the most diverse and authentic Mexican food I have found in the Twin Cities. A walk-up ordering kiosk has replaced the former cafeteria style line. It takes abit of effort to master all the options. The checkout clerk can help. A lovely deli section is close to the cafe seating, allowing you to select some take home things while your food is cooked. Much recommended for any of their offerings!“

“This place is fantastic. They served the Inver Grove Heights teachers union at cost on the goodness of their hearts. They are community focused and they are essential to our community. I would highly recommend this place.“

“My favorite restaurant for authentic Mexican food and margaritas“

“We have been regulars here over the past two years. The staff is very friendly and the service is really fast. I recommend El Loro if you are looking for more of a friends and family type of eating experience.“

“Definitely fast food style but with restaurant quality and prices. Two servings of chips with guacamole, salsa and queso cost around 20 dollars. The food was good and portions were nice for bowls, burritos and tortas. Was just not what we expected, more comparable to a chipotle with lots of self service.“

“Best restaurant in the city, highly recommend!“

“Great food great staff great service“

“Delicious burritos and chips. the Pico is great as well.“

“tortas & tacos are phenomenal best horchata I've had“

“Awesome food, service was great and they were slammed crazy style. Only problem is its not the best part of town for tourists so I'd be mindful of that, I was also the sore thumb standing out in the area ha. Would definitely recommend, great food!“

“El mejor lugar para comer comida Mexicana. 100% recomendable.“

“Excellent food and service !“

“The best tacos. Love this place!“

“Best Mexican restaurant in Woodbury and surrounding area. I went there for Taco Tuesday and got two delicious tacos (steak and chicken tinga). It was only $4.90 including tax-- great value! This restaurant is more authentic than most Mexican restaurants in the suburbs. They offer free salsas, limes, etc. Friendly service. Will definitely go back.“

“Yo pedi comida hace unos momentos y tido estaba delicioso felicidades al chef que delicia de menudo y la quesadilla mi hijo le encanto sigan asi 😃“

“My human gets out of the car and goes to the truck. She comes back with a plastic disk and then we sit there for a while. The disk buzzes and flashes and the my human goes back to the truck and comes back with the best food ever. I don’t get to eat the goat tacos because they give me the midnight poops but the chicken quesadilla is the best.“

“Good sea food❤️❤️❤️ Muy buena la comida de mariscos❤️❤️“

“This place was a good choice, and close to the Fairgrounds. A goid spot for dinner after the State Fair. ✨️The food was delicious, the self order screen touch screen was cool.😎👍🏻 It was easy-to-use, friendly service from the staff that we did encountered.💫The only part that was off for me, was the cut of seating area, my entourage was a party of nine.😬 We all had to sit in different tables, due to that inconvenience of the closed area.😏 Besides that all was great. 😎👍🏻 Check it out.✌🏻🥰“

“Overall it has potential, the burritos are good, we also had the quesabirria and it had absolutely no flavor at all but I've noticed that is a trend with most restaurants of this type. Salsa was good initially but it has a very strong black pepper taste that gets overpowering pretty quickly. Service was fast and friendly.“

“Good food if served hot right away. Never got my drink as ordered (need to update menu if not available) so I just drank water. Only 1 wait staff on the floor taking orders and had a food runner delivering to the table. Atmosphere wasn't what I expected. Limited parking.“

“The Best Spicy Red salsa Green Salsa and Guacamole. I mixed them together! All the food is amazing!“

“Qdoba stepped up when Chipotle failed! We had a catered order through Chipotle and their store was closed when we went to pick up our order. We went to Qdoba last minute and they catered our order for our son's grad party! Crystal was the manager on duty! Her and the staff were so kind and helpful! What they did was a true blessing! We love the food and will go there from now on!“

“Great food,Great atmosphere! Definitely recommend everyone try this place! Thanks.“

“There are a lot of options for good Mexican food in the twin cities. Habanero has some of the best. Highlights? Breakfast burritos. Pozole. Full bar. Bogo tacos on Tuesdays. They support their community in ways like providing gift cards for fundraisers. For parents: they have two big, clean bathrooms, one with a changing table. They are right next door to michoacana, where your kids’ minds will be blown when they seen the technicolor array of dessert options.“

“Great food and good prices. the service is great.“

“just we had a bad experience yesterday. my husband ordered the el pastor with corn tortillas the waitress comes back with our food and said they ran out of tortillas and they had to make some, and does he still want them of course he does after about 5 mins we stopped her and she says the cooks don't want to listen to her. so about 8 mins later she comes back with 3 tore up looking tortillas. we go to pay the bill mind you I left a 6 dollar tip even tho she took ten mins to greet us and ask if we needed drinks. my bill was 51.52 I gave her a60.00 she asked if I needed change. I said yes she then pulls a paper and try to subtract 51.52 from 60.00 she gave me 4 dollars back I was already home when I counted the change she gave me back“

“Tonight, I was at Acapulco in Woodbury, I was dining with a large group we had excellent service, our server Sami was fantastic. She was super attentive even though the restaurant was very busy she still made our group a top priority. I can't even begin to express how amazing the food was, the cheese dip was out of this world, and the margaritas were fantastic. Love this restaurant... Thank you Sami.“

“Great Staff. Great Food! Never disappointed! 👍🏼“

“I always have a great experience at Taco Libre. The service is consistently friendly and fast, and the food is absolutely delicious every time. You can tell they really care about quality and customer experience. Definitely one of my favorite spots—highly recommend!“

“Las mejores Gorditas de Arina y maíz y platillos 100% recomendados ,Sason de mi lindo estado de Durango 👌🏻“

“This place rules! Beats the crap out of Chipotle. The freshest ingredients, the best ghost pepper sauce on the planet, seriously their food is amazing.“

“great food and good service“

“If the heavy set white guy is closing, just walk out! Extremely rude, wore dirty clothes, and had zero patience with customers!

***Update: Went back and the manager Chris was so so friendly and nice after my bad encounter that I've come back to rate my review again! My family and I really enjoyed our food. Also shout out to the guy in glasses who went to restock ingredients for us! You guys' patience and kindness really made a difference. Thank you!!“

“I just wanted to leave a quick review about the amazing customer service I experienced today. The girl, Yanet, who helped us was incredibly kind, attentive, and professional the entire time. She greeted us with a smile, made sure our order was perfect, and checked in to see if we needed anything else. Her positive attitude really made the dining experience even better. Great service like that definitely makes me want to come back again!“
