43 Best Mexican Restaurants near Absecon

“Hands down the best mole I've ever had! I got the mole chicken and it was amazingly flavorful; rich, savory, and just a hint of beefy umami flavor, with a perfect consistency and not to salty. Additionally I had the horchata which was thirst quenching with a perfect amount of sugar and cinnamon. Btw - The street corn is a must! Mariachi's is hands down the best Mexican Cuisine you can have. A clean restaurant, welcoming hostess, an amazing painting of Frida Kahlo on the wall, this is a Hidden Gem! Also we ordered in English for those concerned about language barrier.

Parking: There's plenty of parking around the location

Kid-friendliness: From where I waited for my pickup I could see they had children's booster seats.“

“If you're on the hunt for a fiesta on your plate, El Tacuate is where you want to be! The food? Pretty darn good! While the prices might make your wallet do a little shimmy, the portions are so massive that you'll likely leave with a doggy bag (or two!).

Both my dining partner and I were defeated by our generous servings—seriously, it's like they want you to take a siesta afterward! The flavors were vibrant, and each bite felt like a mini celebration of Mexico.

So, if you’re ready to indulge in some hearty portions and vibrant flavors, El Tacuate is worth a visit. Just bring your appetite and maybe a friend to help tackle those plate-sized portions!“

“Bubbaroo’s Burritos – A Great First-Time Experience!

I recently visited Bubbaroo’s Burritos for the first time, and it was such a great experience! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with friendly smiles and a welcoming atmosphere. The staff was super helpful in explaining the menu and making recommendations since it was my first visit.

The crispy chicken nachos and chiwawa I ordered was absolutely delicious. The ingredients were fresh, the flavors were perfectly balanced, and the portion size was more than generous. I loved how customizable everything was there’s something for everyone here.

The restaurant itself was clean and had a chill vibe, making it a great spot to enjoy a meal. Whether you’re dining in or grabbing food to go, you can tell they take pride in both the food and the customer experience.

Overall, Bubbaroo’s Burritos left a great first impression on me. I’ll definitely be back to try more from their menu. Highly recommend it if you’re in the mood for a flavorful, satisfying meal!“
