Mexican Restaurants near Barnegat

“I had an amazing experience at El Paisa Restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious and incredibly fresh, and the service was warm, friendly, and attentive. I truly love supporting local restaurants, and if you feel the same way, I highly recommend visiting El Paisa. Every visit helps them grow, and I’m sure they’ll truly appreciate your support. A fantastic spot that deserves all the love!“

“Came out to try the new dulce de Leche Cinnabon delights. They were delicious! The staff was friendly and prompt. I forgot to get the name of the drive thru window worker today but he was very friendly and professional. Thanks for the great taco bell experience today! Keep the new items coming!“

“The absolute best Mexican food in the area. Entertaining and delicious. Food, staff and service are amazing!“

“The best place! My son is obsessed with Leo’s quesadillas! Leo is also the nicest person ever! Highly recommend Quesadillas Dona Meche for great service and great food!“

“Ordered delivery for our first time because our son said that they were great. Young woman on phone was very nice and verified all items in order. Delivery was quite fast for it being dinner time and the young man was very nice.. The chimichangas are outrageous! The green sauce is great but the mole' is really great. The empandas come smothered and can be an entire meal on their own. Really good stuff. They even add seperate containers of rice and beans. This is a superior restaurant.“

“The chowder was absolutely incredible. 5 stars. Our lunch was great. Not a person in our party walked away unhappy with their choices.“

“The restaurant was clean and orderly, and the staff were super friendly, not just to us, but to everyone that came in. It was a cold and rainy day so it could have been easy for anyone to be miserable, but they weren't at all.

Staff was sweet and friendly, even telling us about his the steak chunks just got bigger so they're re-learning how to wrap the burritos because everything is so much bigger now.

The food was standard to the chain, but one thing was off here. The guacamole tasted fine at first, but then left a horrid, bitter aftertaste, like letting pills melt in your mouth. It was a very disagreeable taste and we stopped eating it.

Besides that, everything was good!“

“My wife and I hired them to do a food truck for after our wedding reception. 15/10 decision. The tacos were incredible esp the General Tso chicken and the bang shrimp tacos. Plus the leftovers that weren't served at the reception hall made great afterparty food. If you like tacos and want to give your late night party crowd a treat after a fun night, highly recommend Tacoholics!“

“We have been loyal customers for years coming in once a week. You changed the topping on the tacos from fresh tomatoes and cabbage to this awful marinated salty cabbage concoction that is not edible. if you don't change back we will have to find another taco place.“

“I’ve ordered these fish tacos before and they were good. Saturday night 4/12/25 absolutely horrible. Dry over fried seemed left over. Seems like they were cooked for another order that wasn’t picked up. So they passed it on to me. I called and spoke to a lady named Pablino. She defended her position and said I would have to return them and they would do it again. Sorry no time for that. They basically said I was wrong they were right and she hung up after I said that a bad review was to follow. This is bad business. I’ve been there before and have recommended them. Now no way will I go there and all my recommendations will be negative and don’t ever try this place. It actually seems like it’s another failing business in town. Definitely seems like so many of these businesses nowadays just don’t care about the customer.
Anyway don’t waste your time or money. They just don’t care !!!!“

“Delicious Food!! Huge portions and great tasting. Love the chicken quesadillas with the red and green sauce 👍👍“

“What can I say but excellent all around excellent“

“Still the best clam chowder and you cannot tell me otherwise. The bread bowl is toasted perfectly. Good bands and entertainment. Staff is always nice, decent selection of beers and alcohol. Good food overall. Our staples are the chowder, potato skins, and wings but have had their sandwhiches which have been good as well.“

“Excellent Customer service and the food was really good, tasted fresh, whoever rolled my burrito knew what they were doing. None of the food felt "thrown together", as is so common with fast food. But our food was excellent and the woman who took my order through the drive thru was very polite and kind.“
