49 Best Mexican Restaurants in Greensboro

“First impression as you walk in, or look at images of the menu: AUTHENTIC! First impressions when you bite into your food: They nailed the first impression! I had the lingua, tripa, pez, and Pastor tacos. My family had the California burrito, chicken and beef tacos, and the Enchiladas Mexicanos with mole and salsa verde. We also added a side of guac and chips. Guac: thin mixed avocado and perfectly sized chunks mixed in with the tomato and seasonings. An absolute must! The 4 tacos I ate were succulent to say the least. The tripa was thin and crispy, but you could taste the rendered fat in them. It had the texture of perfectly cooked bacon. Al pastor is one of my favorites and this one did not disappoint. Then there was the pez taco that was just the right amount of crispy without being an iota overcooked. At last I ate the lingua taco. It melted in my mouth and I immediately wanted another. I don’t even like mole sauce, but I couldn’t stop eating the mole enchilada. Aces, hands down. The California burrito was phenomenal and had the perfect amount of each ingredient and a delectable amount of heat and sweet cream sauce. The chicken was obviously hand shredded and had equal amounts of larger chunks of meat and thin pulled pieces to soak up all the flavor in endless nooks and crannies. If you have not been here please do your palate a flavor and stop in. The value far exceeded the price of our meals and we plan on coming here every year when the World Ninja finals come to town.“

“The food is delicious! I ordered the beef chimichanga and rice. It was all very flavorful! The queso is really good! Their salsa taste freshly made and we all agreed it was delicious!!!

I highly recommend and I will return! I wish they were closer to my side of town but it's worth the drive!!“

“Favorite Lunch/Dinner Spot“

“Tonight was my family’s first time eating at El Alebrije ! Food was hot and fast! Queso had just enough of a kick to it . The plates are huge! I got an ACP and could have easily split it with my husband. Price of our meal was great too for a family of 5!“

“Food is good, chips are mediocre, service was decent.

I wasn't expecting the interior to be themed like it was and it was very nice. Especially for a hole in the wall place.

Waitress kind of made me wait forever to get my check so I could pay and leave.“

“Ate there today for the first time. 5 stars!!! Food was amazing. Staff is so friendly. Definitely my new favorite Mexican restaurant in Greensboro.“

“We had the best food we've ever had. The sauce was home made and it showed. Big portions and I could swear somebody's Gramma cooked everything it tasted so delicious. The agua fresca was delicious too.“

“Food is always delicious. They never disappoint. The staff is friendly and the food always comes out fast!“

“I love the vibe and energy here at Friendly more than the other Rio Grande's. Eveyone is always so nice and kind. Francisco at the front knows my name and can guess what I am going to order before I even place it. KUDOS and 5 stars all around for everyone at the Downwind location!! THE BEST!“

“One of THE BEST places in GSO for Birria Tacos! My friends and I visited for the first time on National Margarita Day! It was a Vibe! Diego was our server- he made great suggestions, was attentive and made sure we had a great experience. Fantastic Food, great fun ambiance, good price point, overall amazing experience!“

“Food is good and drinks as well“

“Authentic Mexican Food! Always fresh servings“

“The food is great! Love to come in with my children ❤️“

“Love the food good taste and friendly people 🩷“

“Had an excellent experience! The food was delicious: the Chicken ACP was great, we tried a new steak dish that had cactus which was great to try, the enchiladas were delicious. Our table chips and salsa were yummy and not too spicy. My house margarita was both tasty and beautiful.

My kid’s kid meal of chicken fingers and fries was actually the big surprise of the order, going above and beyond typical kids meal fare; i typically expect ore ida crinkle cut fries, but instead these gave the impression of being made in house, they were really crispy and delicious, and the chicken was deliciously fried small bites of chicken, not some sad chicken nuggets. My picky kid pronounced it as delicious and ate almost all of it which is a rare win in a restaurant for us!

Our waiter Javier was very helpful and friendly, and a great server! We had a lovely experience and will definitely be back!“

“Fantastic loaded quesadilla! Thank you all!“

“The food is great! Love to come in with my children ❤️“

“Muy rica la comida y excelente servicio“

“We absolutely love the food, the patio, and the menu with crayons for kids. It is one of our go-to spots in town. My only suggestion is to check the bag before you leave (if you get takeout) and make sure your chips are there. We’ve had a few issues with chips missing.“

“Our waitress Aryn was amazing, not as amazing as the food though. The coffee, waffles, eggs, bacon, hashbrowns, and sausage were all made or cooked to perfection. The housemade jelly has the perfect sweetness. Especially for those watching there sugar intake. Enjoyed my experience immensely!“

“The food was absolutely delicious! I had the tostada and ceviche and they both were incredibly fresh and flavorful. Will definitely visit this truck again!“

“food was excellent and the the service was great,i definitely will be back and recommend this place“

“quality food!! run by amazing people !! cocinan muy rico y con corazón! y en lo personal bellas personas muy trabajadoras! toda la familia son muy ambles! así que te los recomiendo!!👍“

“You won't only get the best burrito al pastor 🌯 you can have in the whole Greensboro area, but you will have food made with love! The seasoning is perfect👌🏼 and the portions are way more than what you would get somewhere else while paying more. Will be coming here more.

Shoutout to the doña cooking in the kitchen!🙏🏼“

“The kimchi fried rice with steak was delicious and the portion sizes were outrageous. You can eat off of it for at least three meals. I've ordered from this place about 7 or 8 times over the years. They never disappoint.“

“Una Mas is a gem! The food is bursting with authentic flavors, with perfectly seasoned dishes and fresh ingredients. The service is outstanding.“

“We were getting ready for my son and daughter-in-law's bridal shower party and picked up our food and drinks from here. Everyone enjoyed the food and was very happy to the point that they ended up serving themselves twice. Recommend La Azteca #2 for their fresh tortilla and most delicious salsa and all their food.“

“We picked up some quesabirria tacos last night after a show nearby. They were absolutely delicious and the lady working was so nice. I wish they could open a restaurant. We'll definitely be trying more of the menu.“

“They have good food, excellent service, and some of the best salsa we have ever had!! 👍🏼“

“My recent visit to La bamba was a mixed experience. While the service was excellent—attentive and friendly from start to finish—the food unfortunately fell short of expectations.

I ordered the steak tacos with a side of rice. The most significant issue was the complete lack of flavor. Both the meat and the rice tasted unseasoned, as if no salt or pepper had been used. The meal was simply bland and lacked any depth.

The salsa was equally disappointing. It seemed to consist of nothing more than blended tomato and onion, missing the key spices and herbs that give salsa its vibrant flavor. It was just as bland as the main dish.

Ultimately, while the great service was a positive note, the quality of the food was a dealbreaker for me. Based on this experience, I don't see myself returning in the future.“

“This is one of my favorite restaurants and they didn't disappoint. We were blessed with a young lady by the name of Amy who provided us with top tier service. Her attentiveness, professionalism, and service was amazing. It was my friends first time there in which I gave rave reviews upon our arrival! Thank you for providing everything and then some! Kudos to Amy!!!“

“We LOVE Crazy Mexico on Tate Street! Everything about this Restaurant is Special: Warm & Inviting Atmosphere (it is a lovely, cheerful & happy place), Friendly, Welcoming & Attentive Staff, Delicious Food (Traditional Mexican Dishes w/Some New Twists, too) & an Excellent Overall Value, Too!🙂 A SOLID 5 STARS (we would give more stars if we could)😉 Highly, Highly Recommend!❤️ The Nicolls Family“

“Great tasting food! Im addicted🤤“

“Awesome queso and salsa and guac, oh my!“

“Real and authentic. The carnitas tacos were about as authentic and flavorful as you could ask for. If you want fake Mexican food, go to Taco Bell. If you want the real deal that you would expect from authentic food, truck or restaurant in Mexico, come here.“

“No lo recomiendo fuimos a comer tacos de tripa y en lugar de darnos tripa nos dieron menudo dorado y tenia el sabor a menudo o panza de res nos quedamos muy decepcionados por que antes daban un buen servicio y ahora es pésimo y pobre el servicio cuando les pides corregir una orden se enojan“

“I thought the place was just as good as the well known restaurants“

“Great food, good prices and a lovely place“

“I ordered through Grubhub. I made a mistake on my order and called the restaurant. Friendly customer service and they made my order correct with no problems! Food was great and the young lady who helped me via phone was extra efficient and friendly! I will order from them again!“

“Food is great and at a great price. Been eating here since high school“

“The food is absolutely delicious. When ordering take out during lunch time you may be sitting there for a longer than necessary period of time. They walked right past me with my food when taking it to the register then didn't tell me my food was up there until 10 minutes later. I also dined in about 2 weeks later at a later time around 3pm and food came out quickly still just as delicious.“

“I’ll start by saying this is not a Mexican food place. More Central American hence pupusas, although they cater to some Mexican tastes for sure.It’s your standard small mom and pop hole in the wall eatery/grocer. The prices are a little higher on the food than normal but I personally enjoy the pupusas throughly.“

“This Mexican grill embodies the vibrant flavors of Latin cuisine in every dish. From sizzling fajitas to zesty tacos, the menu is a fiesta of flavors. The lively ambiance, coupled with the colorful décor, adds a touch of Mexico's spirit to each dining experience.“

“Came here for lunch.This was my first visit. The food is good and plenty, but I felt that it was kind of bland. There was no seasoning, not enough sauces for the tacos. BUTTTT.. Since this was my first time visiting, I will not make this review to be set in stone. I will go back and give it another try.“

“Great Food great drinks and friendly service“

“Glad to have this place here, good food, friendly folks“
