12 Best Mexican Restaurants near Ashland

“This was my first time at this location. We arrived before the Sunday evening dinner rush and the service was welcoming. The staff at this location wear headsets which help with faster response times for food updates/status. This location does have A LOT of dinner options to choose from, I think it would be helpful if it were more condensed (a bit overwhelming). Overall the food is good and friendly environment. We ordered the churros and they were a bit over cooked, I think. But I recommend the carnitas and either a raspberry or mango margarita.“

“We arrived early, before lobby opened. We had trailer and didn’t fit in drive thru. They were gracious and allowed us e one in and order. Thank you for your kindness. They only other thing that would have been better was to eat inside. As with a 10 month old would have been easier to feed him.“

“These tacos were fantastic. They were also very expensive however. It took quite some time for us to get our tacos and margaritas, then the margaritas came out warm and very syrupy. I got the steak, carnitas, birria. They were each very good and topping them with the salsa bar items was a nice touch. The inside was very dingy and dark. I would suggest getting takeout. I would come here again for the tacos but the price, margaritas and atmosphere of the restaurant are holding this place back.“

“I’m one of a group of seniors who meet at Fuzzy’s every Tuesday. We love the food and the discounts on Tacos every Taco Tuesday. One of main attractions though is the friendly staff. We are particularly fond of Tanya. We all agree that she is a huge asset to our dining experience.“

“I am not a foodie, so they may have more informed opinions. The restaurant has relocated from borderline shabby southeast Columbia conveniently near U.S. Highway 63 and Nifong/AC to the leading edge of the southwest sprawl, still on AC. That building is a new mini-shopping plaza behind a gas station and slightly concealed from the road. Parking is convenient and plentiful. The reserved table was available when we arrived. The food was as good as any of the other 4 or 5 Mexican restaurants around Columbia, MO that I have tried. The menu had a lot of items. Whether it had a variety is a question best left to an expert. The descriptions were often indistinguishable to me. The service was fast but the servers changed shift between order and delivery. Estimates are that two of the 8 in our party did not get what they ordered but just accepted the situation due to the language difficulty in communication. There was little interaction with the servers during the meal. Associating the bills with the customers did not go quickly. If my bill was for what I ordered then the price was a dollar more than indicated on the menu. At this point not worth disputing. The one special "no dairy" order was correctly made and delivered and appreciated. Some servings were generous enough to require take-out bags.Dietary restrictions: Dairy-free request honored.Parking: Seemed like plenty.Kid-friendliness: Saw family groups“

“We are in the parking lot right now, eating in our van. I wasn't all that hungry but my wife wanted to come here. She got chips with guac, salsa and queso. I figured I'd try their dessert. I can't remember the name of it. Because I'm an average white dude that can't figure out other languages. It's tortilla strips that are fried and covered in cinnamon and sugar and comes with a side of honey. We just finished our food and it was amazing. They gave her enough chips for five people and the huge sides of everything that came with it. Seriously amazing food. Polite staff. Food all came really fast and my favorite part of the whole dinner was the prices. It was half as much money as taco Bell would have cost us. Definitely try this place. We'll be back.Vegetarian options: They've got a whole lot of options.“

“I absolutely love this place! Their tacos r good but their pizza is even better! The workers r great! The foods great! Honestly only thing missing is the pool table.....just saying! It's a wonderful place to go out!Parking: Plenty of places to park & wheelchair accessible“

“Went here on a "date night" with my husband one afternoon. The place was pretty empty because of a big football game going on.We were told to sit wherever we wanted and were quickly asked for our drinks orders. Within a few minutes the drinks were out and the nice lady was out to take our order. I had chicken street tacos and my husband had the fajitas dos primos with the intention of us sharing.The food here was AMAZING. The street tacos were perfect and the chicken was amazingly delicious. I had only wished there was more. My husband loved the fajitas and finished off most of the shrimp (he knows i prefer chicken or beef) and i helped him with some of the chicken and beef and there were still leftovers.I would tell anyone looking for a good, filling, affordable meal with a nice dine in experience (of course YMMV on what day and time you go) to try out Dos Primos. I know i will be back, I can't say enough how kind and prompt the staff were, the food being so amazing was just the icing on the cake. Thanks guys! We had a wonderful time!!“

“The burrito was disappointing as my tortilla was unexpectedly cold to touch. The meat I chose, steak, was also noticeably chewy. The tacos were a lot better, but not as filling since they're tiny and an order only comes with two. Lastly, the customer service was friendly and the staff were quick with my order.“

“Enchanting Evenings at Las Margaritas: A South Columbia Gem! My visit to Las Margaritas on the south side of Columbia was nothing short of amazing.

Navigating through the menu becomes a breeze with their assistance, ensuring you make the most of your dining experience.

“Stopped in about an hour before close just for a drink and to finish up watching the game. I honestly wasn’t expecting much other than the basics. I was greeted with wonderful service and unexpected hospitality. I will definitely be back for dinner during regular hours!Thank you to Alex, Julio, and Grislder for your service!“

“We had takeout from Casa Maria’s and it was so good we wanted to visit the restaurant. The decor was colorful and appealing. A server came right away and got us a tablet to peruse the online menu-no physical menus are available. The food was delicious, reasonably priced and plentiful. The only negative was that the floor was filthy and the booth hadn’t been thoroughly cleaned. We assumed they had been hit hard at lunch and hadn’t been able to get things cleaned up. We will definitely go back and see if they have it under control, and we will definitely get takeout again.“
