50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Berkeley Heights

“We recently celebrated a birthday here with loud and outlandish middle schoolers , oh boy - the birthday slayed !!!
The food was a smashing hit with quick service, satisfying unique orders for 10-12 kids. They delivered all the orders with zero errors which is commendable, given the commotion.
With a dozen or so rambunctious boys, chaos was just the beginning. I must say the staff graciously took housekeeping upon themselves when it ended.

I highly recommend the BH Bubbakoo’s location for your next party venue - they won’t disappoint !! 🥳“

“Food is awesome. Service is top notch.“

“Tried their dessert - love chips - amazing!“

“A great new addition to the Livingston Circle. Everything that I have tried off the menu was fantastic. Especially the quesadillas, fries and the dessert options. They even have a mobile app for ordering and rewards. Highly recommended if you love great Mexican food.“

“We're local business owners in Springfield, NJ and just discovered Tierra Del Sol as a wonderful spot for lunch!

Friendly greeting when we walked in, quick table service and the food is fresh and very flavorful! We each had Quesadilla's de Carne Asada (Steak) - and the serving sizes were big, we each only ate half and too the rest home.

We will most definitely be back soon!“

“We chose La Colina Mexican Cantina in Warren NJ to celebrate 3 birthdays on 4/5/25. We were a party of 12 & tried a few of the beautifully crafted cocktails that were out of this world and so tasty we had to order more. We began our feast with a couple of platters of Nachos El Gordo that were huge and absolutely delicious and went perfectly with the chosen wines, margaritas, and assorted cocktails our family ordered. The cocktails were of the beautiful quality that we've only seen on TV during cooking shows or restaurant series. The edible flowers and the smoke emitting drinks were amazing. We were served by a wonderfully friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive waitress. She was able to answer every question and had plenty of patience for our crowd who were amazed by the menu. Especially the "Smart" menus that detail each item at the flip of your finger. What an upscale & impressive touch that is. After we ordered our entrees we enjoyed more cocktails and had some time to talk and enjoy the unbelievable decor that seemed to have an endless amount of thought and class put into the decor of this authentic Cantina. The service was beyond excellent and our meals came out hot and enticing and as pleasing to the eyes as it was to our pallets. This was authentic delicious, beautiful meals that made the party seem like were were enjoying fantastic Cantina style food right in Mexico. I highly recommend the burritos, enchiladas, the Mexican Caesar salad, fajitas and I'm sure that rest of the menu has to be outstanding if everything the 12 of us had was that delicious. Besides the wonderful service, drinks, food and authentic atmosphere, topping the celebration off was when the owner came over to our table , introduced himself and made sure everything was as fabulous as possible. Believe me it was. Then the Head Chef came out and asked if everything up to our expectations to which we all agreed this place out did every single Mexican restaurant we've ever been to. I highly recommend La Colina in Warren NJ and I know you won't be disappointed in the food , atmosphere or the service. We surely will be back !!!!“

“Very tasty food and wonderful folks. Would definitely recommend to guys and ladies who cherish Mexican food.“

“The food was fantastic. The burrito, nachos, and kids meal have great value for your money. Along with the kids meal came chips. Although very crispy and fresh, they had a little bit too much salt. Apart from that, everything was fantastic from the service to the place it self. Highly recommend.“

“Food is delicious, my favorite are the Tacos Al Pastor they really taste like authentic Mexican tacos! All staff is super friendly!“

“I recently had my daughter’s Bridal shower here and the food, drinks, service and atmosphere were excellent! I would definitely recommend Nom if you are looking to host a private event.“

“Wonderful people, great food. Always an enjoyable experience!“

“Ive been going here for years for mainly for the burritos. Originally it was for the breakfast burritos and now it's for their firebird lunch burrito. They are always tasty,huge and reasonably priced. Under $10 for a gigantic burrito? What is this 2010?“

“First time customer. I got two beef tortas and one chicken milanesa torta. The bread was fresh, meat tender and so flavorful with just the right amount of heat. Even the fries were well seasoned and crispy. The cheese, crema and avocado added balance to all the flavors. Excellent service and experience overall. I would have taken photos but I was too busy eating! This will become my Mexican food mainstay from now on.“

“Last night I had the pleasure of dining at Maize Cocina & Cocktails in Westfield, NJ — and let me tell you, if you love Mexican food and crave an elevated dining experience, this is the spot! 🌮✨

Everything was incredible, but my favorites were the maize croquettes, crabmeat tostadas, and the whole fish adobo — absolutely delicious. They’ve also added some exciting new dishes like the Tamarind Sticky Duck Breast and Pork Chop Amarillo that you’ll definitely want to try.

If you’re planning a visit, go between Thursday and Sunday — those are their action days! Trust me, if you’re looking for a great vibe and even better food, Maize is the place to be. 🍹🔥“

“amazing atmosphere! love the staff! The staff memorized my go to everytime im there & has it prepped within minutes. They go out their way to form connections with the guests to ensure everything is perfect. Tacoria will always be my go to! :)“

“Delicious for eating in or taking out. I prefer to eat at this beautiful restaurant if I have the time. As I vegetarian I appreciate the delicious veggie entrees, and the complementary chips and salsa are wonderful!“

“My wife and I had an amazing dinner last night at Orale, our first visit. When we passed the place a few weeks ago and looked in, the staff beckoned us in with wide arms and smiles, and we decided we had to try it. Too bad we didn't go sooner! The flight of 3 guacamoles and 3 side sauces were distinctive and creative. We ordered the two special entrees: red snapper in a green mole and birria tacos with an authentic, delicious birria broth. This is authentic Mexican cuisine at its best, served by an extraordinarily friendly staff, and we will be back many times to try the rest of the menu!“

“Good place to go great food“

“Went here for dinner tonight the first time. Food was absolutely amazing. Stephanie was our host/server and she was fantastic at recommendations. Food was delicious. Will definitely make this my new Spanish go to restaurant. The Salvadorian Chicken Tamale was moist and dense, and the flavors mixed perfectly together. If you order the beef empanadas, ask them for their new homemade hot sauce. It's a perfect blend of sweet & heat to go with the pastry dough. Their plantains were a good addition of sweet to the dense of the meal. Their flan was the perfect size for a nice ending dessert to a very filling meal. Definitely a highly recommended place to get an excellent and very affordable meal.“

“Sooo good! Better than chipotle and qdoba. It is around the same price as the other restraints mentioned. Very flavorful meat. Honestly, I was very surprised of how good this was. They gave good portions as well. The only negative thing is that it took them so long to make the order and we were like the only people there… but other than that I loved it. I wish they open a location closer to me!!“

“Better than chipolte. Great food“

“First off food was amazing. I had the fajitas with Chicken and beef and me and my son ate it up so fast not only is the food good the service was great. They were very kind. I actually left my wallet there and my husband went to Get it the next day he told me the woman asked him so many Questions before giving up my wallet I appreciate The kindness of holding down my wallet I will definitely be coming back here Again“

“Walking through the beautiful town of Morristown, I stumbled across Tacoria - Mexican Street Kitchen, a one of a kind and delicious twist on a classic Mexican menu. Today I had the burrito bowl and it truly was one of a kind; as soon as taking the first bite, this bowl takes you back as if you were traveling back to Mexico City. The staff were amazing and the environment truly is amazing, from the decorations when you walk in to the amazing ambiance of the bathroom. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back!“

“La comida está muy bien. Tiene bien servicio. Lo recomiendo“

“Fantastic food. Unbelievable lunch specials (until 2:30). Regular menu offers anything you might want, but it is a bit pricey and worth it. BYO. Last time we did that we shared our home made sangria with the staff. We made friends for life. This is going back to 1997 for that incident. Go! And enjoy“

“Brewed Awakening is the perfect spot for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. The food is consistently delicious, and some of my favorites include the BLT Sandwich (always made to perfection), the omelettes, and their Apple Caramel Butter Latte—a delightful seasonal treat. I first discovered the latte through a social media post a few weeks ago, and now Brewed Awakening has become my go-to spot every Sunday for a relaxing meal. The service is always warm and welcoming. Annie, the owner, often makes an appearance on the floor, either serving or checking in with guests to ensure they’re enjoying their visit. Her kindness and genuine hospitality make the experience even more special. I highly recommend stopping by Brewed Awakening for a delicious meal and a cozy, inviting atmosphere. You won’t be disappointed!“

“Great food, great workers, amazing portion sizes.“

“Delivery Order: Food arrived on time and packaged well. Taste and quantity was pretty good for the price. Chilaquiles is usually by go to order when trying a new Mexican restaurant and while it was definitely good it was not the best I have tasted so knocked off 1 star.“

“The highlights are definitely the chipotle chicken. Tried the carne asada and it was alright. The green sauce and lime definitely brought its score up. I wanted to try the short rib but apparently it’s pork. But I hear it’s good. It’s a really cute spot, though a bit pricey.“

“Friendly service, delicious fajitas, homemade guacamole, shrimp tacos, and chicken soup were some of my favorites!!“

“This spot is great! We love going here or getting take out. The patio is wonderful when the weather is nice. Service is always timely and the food is great, super reliable. We dined in the other night and our daughter (10 months) was starting to get restless and a staff member came out with a balloon for her. She was calm and happy and we were able to enjoy the rest of our meal. It was really thoughtful. I can’t recommend enough!“

“Buena atencion bariedad de platos tipicos de centro america“

“I had an incredible experience at the Qdoba in Union thanks to Marissa and Gabriel. From the moment I walked in, both of them had great energy and made the whole visit feel welcoming.

Marissa was super attentive, patient, and made sure every part of my order was exactly how I wanted it. Gabriel was just as impressive — fast, friendly, and really knew how to put a bowl together with care. You can tell they both take pride in their work.

It’s rare to find staff who go above and beyond, but Marissa and Gabriel absolutely did. Because of them, this location stands out. I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“This one girl who I met was chill glad they have "great" waiter 10/10??The Alfredo was great. The people are pretty chill and and food has nice flavor and pretty good variety. I wanna say the wait time was great and price wasn't too much for a meal.“

“The best nachos I’ve ever had in my life! Plus amazing tacos that don’t need to be covered half a pound of shredded cheddar to be delicious. This place is legit!“

“We got the chicken quesadilla and tamales, they were fresh, hot and delicious. The decor is fun too! It's a great casual spot for Mexican dishes, definitely recommend!

Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly place, even have a kids menu.“

“This meal was absolutely outstanding. The chicken sandwich was perfectly crispy, the bread was fresh, and every bite tasted homemade with real care. The restaurant delivered perfect quality across the board, from the flavorful food to the warm, welcoming atmosphere.“

“The Mexican–Indian fusion works so well and tastes amazing. Everything we ordered was packed with flavor, fresh, and filling. It’s the kind of place where you want to come back just to try more items on the menu. Great vibes, friendly service, and seriously good food. We had the chicken bowl, khati roll, samosa chaat and mango tajin lassi, which were all amazing!!!“

“Excellent service clean restaurant fresh ingredients employees are amazing staff and the most important part loveeeee the welcoming we received from all employees this restaurant deserve 100 stars moes Florham park recommended 100%“

“impeccable food and service and super cozy atmosphere“

“El peor restaurante en el área el encargado con la peor actitud un patán prepotente abusivo no recomiendo este lugar basura a nadie. we went to this place for dinner with the family. the manager with the worst attitude ever didn't give us the table because we were waiting for 1 more person we told him he was 3 minutes away and with he's terrible attitude said no and after that he got mad because we grab on of the menus and told us to move out the way from the bar. He was so disrespectful. I would never recommend this place to nobody.“

“8/10 I don't have any pics of the food I was hungry I Normally go to another place but decided to try this one. The steak wasn't really seasoned, the shrimp and the birra 10/10 well seasoned. Tastes amazing. I'll Def be returning“

“I was there today for the first time and I loved the food, the place was very nice, it looked clean, a little noisy with the music very loud, but the very friendly girl turned it down but the food was very exquisite.
