10 Best Mexican Restaurants in Clinton

“Excellent food and customer service in a great atmosphere. The owner kindly accommodated our large extended family for my father’s birthday. Food was delicious and came out rather quickly! The servers were so friendly and provided top notch service to our large crowd. Very family friendly. Five stars!“

“Can't go wrong with a good street taco, but I love the pintos.“

“YES to the Birria tacos here! My wife really enjoyed their quesadilla too! Food was loaded with flavor and big portions for a very reasonable cost. Bathroom was a little rough, would avoid going in there, their water heater looks like it may soon be springing multiple leaks too.“

“Food is excellent but I would recommend getting takeout over dining in. Air conditioning was struggling on a very hot day, so it was pretty warm inside. Can’t argue with the food though. So much of it for a great price, and everything was delicious! We will be back.“

“​If you are looking for authentic flavor and a welcoming atmosphere in Clinton, El Mazatlan is the place to be. It is easily one of the best dining options in the area, consistently delivering high-quality food and top-notch service.
​The Food:
The menu is packed with variety, and everything I’ve tried has been excellent. The chips are thin and crispy, the salsa has the perfect kick, and the entrees are always served piping hot. Whether you’re going for the street tacos, a loaded burrito, or their sizzling fajitas, the portions are generous and the ingredients feel incredibly fresh.
​The Service:
What really sets this place apart is the staff. Even when the restaurant is crowded, the service remains fast, attentive, and friendly. You’re never left waiting long for a refill or your check, which makes for a seamless dining experience every time.
​The Atmosphere:
It has a great local feel—comfortable enough for a casual lunch but vibrant enough for a family dinner. It’s clearly a staple for the Mount Olive community, and for good reason.
​The Bottom Line:
El Mazatlan is a 5-star experience from start to finish. Great food, great people, and great prices. If you’re passing through or live nearby, do yourself a favor and stop in.“

“As I told my son, this is now our favorite Mexican restaurant. Not only are the entrees delicious, even the little things vee sometimes take for granted are great, like their salsa, which is not wimpy or too tomatoy. Loved their rice and beans too“

“Best Mexican food I've had, and I've had a lot... ample portion as well. Wait staff attentive, but not overly so.“

“A friend mentioned this place to me and was raving over how good the food is, so I checked it out. I ordered the chicken nachos, and they were awesome. I also had a couple of drinks. The price was right, so it's definitely worth revisiting. Also, they do karaoke, dancing after 9, and they play great music. I had a great time. They have big screens where you can watch games or the videos to the songs playing, they have billiards and the ambiance was pretty cool and relaxed. Service was awesome. I want to try their authentic Honduran food next.“
