17 Best Mexican Restaurants in Salisbury

“As part of exploring local food and the cultures behind it, Recipes of Culture recently visited Loteria located at 113 W Innes St, Salisbury, NC 28144, and it was a great experience. This family-owned restaurant from Guanajuato, Mexico brings authentic flavor and vibrant culture right to downtown Salisbury. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels warm, colorful, and welcoming. The restaurant’s name is inspired by Lotería, a traditional Mexican game that dates back to the 1700s and is often compared to bingo. Instead of numbers, the game uses illustrated cards like El Gallo, La Sirena, and El Corazón. It’s a fun cultural tradition that many Mexican families grow up playing, so it’s great to see that cultural connection represented in the restaurant’s identity. The food was fresh, flavorful, and well prepared. The portions were generous, and you can tell the dishes are made with care. Everything tasted authentic and satisfying, making it a solid spot for anyone craving Mexican food in the Salisbury area. At Recipes of Culture, we love highlighting places where food and culture come together, and Loteria is a great example of that. If you’re in Salisbury and looking to support a local business while enjoying great Mexican food, this is definitely a place worth visiting. — Recipes of Culture“

“The best and authentic Mexican food around“

“Great food and drinks!!!!!“

“I work up the road and have been wanting to try this place for a while and finally got the chance today. I'm actually kicking myself that I didn't stop sooner. I got the esquite and quesabirria, both absolutely delicious! The salsa roja is good and spicy, with lots of good flavors! They're not bland like a lot of local places. It's going to be a regular lunch spot for me! I'm excited to try the tacos on my next visit. They don't mention it on here or FB, but no cards are accepted. They accept cash only.“

“Love the place and the food!!“

“service was excellent and God was great“

“Food was amazing an affordable service was beautiful an drinks were real drinks❤️❤️“

“Best street tacos ever!!!!! Will be eating here more often.“

“I love this place. I usually eat here at least once or twice a week. the short lady/owner? that seats you is the friendliest lady ever. always good service. good atmosphere and laid back. I hope they always stay in business!!!! My favorites are steak & cheese quesadilla, shredded chicken and cheese quesadilla, and six grilled shrimp. I also think they have the best salsa in town“

“Just tried it for the first time today for lunch. The service is top notch! Super sweet and attentive staff and the food was outstanding! My daughter loved the Fresca and I can’t wait to visit again and try the margaritas. Our new favorite spot!“

“I had some problems ordering through Uber eats and my order wasn't delivered the first time due to an address error so I called the store and a lady named Olga answered all my questions and was super helpful in making sure I was able to get my refund and even helped me reorder and made sure to get the intended address for the delivery. And was dedicated enough to having great custom
er service that she called me back a few moments after my first call to make sure that all errors were resolved & I was content with their service. I have always loved Casa Grande and this woman's dedication just makes me love them even more!“

“great food! I have been going here for years and never disappointed.“

“average chain Spanish food. nothing exiting but hit the spot for what we wanted. friendly fast staff...always a plus.“

“Helping police officers thank you“

“This Taco Bell is about as nice as you could hope. They were fully staffed, and they had two lines making food which meant that the orders in the store and the drive thru were getting made quickly. They also had a nice lady who was very attentive to the people in the store and made sure we got everything we needed quickly. Overall a great experience.“
