Mexican Restaurants near Vadnais Heights

“Made a run for my son. He likes their burrito bowls. I gave them a lower score on atmosphere because they always have dirty tables. We used to own a DQ, so I know keeping the tables clean can be a challenge, but they need to try to improve on it“

“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.“

“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!“

“My sister and I had lunch. We had the greatest waiter. Jordan. He was fun, attentive and had great drink and food suggestions. Even though he was by himself and ended up getting super busy, his warm personality still shined through. Great variety of foods on the menu“

“very good, authentic. very friendly service! #tacos #burritos #goodfood #localeats“

“Delicious. Large portions, enough for two meals.“

“We had an amazing dinner experience at Centro last night. Our group of 3 were greeted and sat at our table right away. Our server Sarah J. was very attentative. All the dishes were fresh and flavorful! The atmosphere was fun and inviting with the colorful decor and music playlist. We will definitely be back to try other menu items.“

“My favorite restaurant for authentic Mexican food and margaritas“

“Lulu’s is a true neighborhood gem! The staff is incredibly friendly, and the food is beyond delicious. The gordita and alambre are absolute standouts, and everything else we have enjoyed here is delicious too. We love having this place in our neighborhood and hope it stays for a long time!“

“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!“

“The almuerzos from Homi are delicious!“

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

“Great food great staff great service“

“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!“

“I wish it was a star point system to review. I usually love britos burrito. The location on Nicollet is really convenient for me. I would probably give it three stars. I always ask for one scoop of rice and they always give me extra. I ask for a little bit of corn and they put a heaping scoop on the one thing that really frustrates me is that when I ask for extra cheese, they put a pinch on and if I ask for more, they get angry and tell me that I’m going to have to pay for it. The service leaves a lot to be desired, but the pricing is good, which is why it is three stars and not five.“

“Best Margaritas - Very Friendly - Fabulous Food. We LOVE This Place!“

“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!“

“The food was fantastic and very reasonably priced. If you gonna go out definitely reccomend you try this place. 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Great food and staff! A lot of fun.“

“The most authentic food in the area and its delicious. unfortunwtly the last couple of times they have screwed us over with the bill. last time they charged me $10.00 for an horchata. tonight I ordered a pozole $16.99 and classic plate $17.99 =34.98 plus 2.91 from taxes should of been$37.89 but they charged me $42.82. It not a lot but it simply shouldn't happen“

“We got the alambre with 1/2 chicken and 1/2 al pastor and the pollo poblano and it was delicious! Service was excellent. We just moved here from Arizona and it’s been hard to find good Mexican food here, but this place hits the spot! We’ll definitely be back again ☺️👏🏽“

“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!“

“Absolutely delicious food!“

“Very unique and authentic taste ! Fresh made and hometown feel. Definitely a 5 star !“

“The best tacos. Love this place!“

“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.“

“love the food. love the chili. love the service. tacos for sure.“

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

“Fiesta never disappoints! Came in on a Saturday night with a party of 8. No wait for a table. Got a table with a view of the packers game. Service was great! Pull tabs cold my buddy lost his ass off. Food was great as usual and good drinks. I failed on pictures“

“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.✌🏻🥰“

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

“Been here multipal times. Then they had some sort of owner/management change. They closed ine side if the restaurant and showed all the tables into the other side. Making it very crowded. I ordered my usual exactly. It was smaller portions, bland and Luke warm. The ice tea taste like coffee. It was honestly my favorite place to eat for a while. Nit any more“

“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.“

“A hidden gem in the north suburbs. Easily some of the best authentic Mexican food in the metro. Personally the steak quesadilla is my favorite, but you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu.“

“Best hot chocolate I’ve ever had“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“Extremely competitively priced. Talking old school chipotle pricing here. I went really late I’m glad they are open so late so the following did not bother me much. There was 1 cook and 1 young kid like 16 years old so far behind it was sad and it took awhile to get my food. But it was worth the wait and the store was clean. This is just chipotle on steroids! I’d invest if it was publicly traded.“

“Great food! Excellent service!“

“Excellent service and the food is amazing!!! Real Mexican taste, brings me back to home. 100% recommend, haven’t tried a better Mexican place than this one.“

“Comida Mexicana! Mucho Éxito!“

“Fantastic, amazing, excellent. Coming back here for sure.
Folks; don’t sleep on the street corn, and do take a moment to get a few cups from the salsa bar.
Also, don’t be afraid to ask if something can be made extra spicy. They turn down the spice for folks in the area but still have great flavor.

Kid-friendliness: There’s a kids menu. The spice is already turned down for the clientele of the area so don’t worry about anything being too spicy for the little ones“

“We Visit this new restaurant in Marshall St Paul we had an excellent service, Adrián was also friendly and attentive, the food was delicious fresh and hot“
