50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Elmwood Park

“Pickup or dine in. EVERYTHING is delicious! Fantastic family place.“

“NEW UPDATE: Some of the customers should ask the managers for the restroom key, because some of these customers are disgusting and they leave the restroom a mess, then they blame the restaurant, and making the employees clean up the restroom, that is inappropriate, some customers should have some decency, learn how to clean up after yourselves, this isn't your house, this is a restaurant, some of the employees that work here do all they can to satisfy the customers, some go above and beyond, plus they are also open late and they have the patience to keep on serving, the least some of the customers could do is treat the employees with the same respect they give you when they serve you, that's all I have to say..“

“El concepto es muy padre y bonito. Me sentí en México por un momento. El sabor de la comida excelente. Pero mi mesera me descuidó y nunca me preguntó cómo estaba todo, nunca pasó a preguntar si ocupaba algo. No se ganó la propina, pero ya me la cobraron en la cuenta.“

“Playa Betty's has great tasting tacos and the staff and atmosphere is awesome! ❣️ frm:🇯🇵🇺🇸“

“I cannot sing the praises of this place and the staff enough! We had a long day at the museum and we were all starving and the kids were very cranky. We took forever trying to find a place that they would all find something to eat at but that place didn't work out so we came here not realizing how lucky we were. After having a quick glance at the menu I realized two of my children would probably not eat anything. Two of the ladies that work there helped us work it out to piece together a meal for them with components they already have. It took quite a while figuring everything out but they were patient and helpful. The food was outstanding and the cocktails and mocktails were phenomenal. I wish I lived closer because this would be a regular place for me. Highly recommend!“

“Amazing food and service!“

“My family and I stopped by for a quick bite after school and were pleasantly delighted with the delicious food, great service and attentive environment. We will definitely return and make it our Mexican Food restaurant going forward. We loved the food and very attentive waitress who paid attention to every detail.“

“Tequila, the food and of course, Amanda!“

“Ate at Ponche Taqueria yesterday with a friend before seeing a show. Great food, and freindly service! Menu is basic, but offers plenty. Guacamole was delicious as were the taco combo plates! Get off the beaten path a bit & you will be rewarded!“

“The birria tacos were delicious! Excellent service.“

“Definitivamente las mejores quesadillas de Tinga al carbón.“

“Ronny was absolutely amazing and made our visit to Chevy’s a great experience from start to finish. His kindness, professionalism, and genuine personality immediately made us feel welcomed. He didn’t just provide great service he made sure we felt comfortable, respected, and truly cared for.
What impressed us the most was the way Ronny treated my mom. He went out of his way to make sure she was happy and had everything she needed. His patience, positive attitude, and thoughtful way of helping made her feel special. My mom left Chevy’s with a big smile and kept talking about how wonderful Ronny was and how much she appreciated the way he treated us.
People like Ronny are what make a place stand out. He brings great energy, kindness, and dedication to his work, and it shows through the way he interacts with customers. He made our experience memorable, and we are truly grateful for the excellent service he provided. Chevy’s is lucky to have someone like Ronny on their team, and we look forward to coming back again because of him. THANK YOUUUU SO MUCH RONNY❤“

“Great atmosphere, friendly service and interesting menu offering plenty of delicious options. We will be back for sure!“

“The reviews I read to this restaurant really fooled me. The food served here did not taste fresh. Don't get me started on their drinks, more like ice. If you love spending money on bad food and iced drinks then this is the place for you. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone“

“This was our first time visiting Qdoba, and it certainly won’t be our last! Jenna was beyond friendly and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. She took the time to engage with my granddaughter, which made the experience even more special for our family. The customer service was exceptional, and to top it all off, the food was absolutely delicious. We had an amazing experience and can’t wait to come back!“

“Some of the best birria tacos I’ve had in Manhattan. The staff is friendly, patient, and very fast. What a wonderful place!“

“Best tacos in Jersey that I’ve had so far. We ordered chicken tacos Birria style and they were so good. The girl taking orders was really kind and helped us with our order and brought our food to the table. Their salsa verde is good too. $35 for 7 tacos and a jarrito.
Clean bathroom!“

“Just tacos. Maybe tacos and a little bit of everything else.
Food was delicious and Enrique was awesome very hospitable made the whole experience even better.
Served hot and wait time was no more than 5-10min for our food.
To be completely transparent a bit on the pricier side but overall 8/10 all around.“

“Our first time going to the Totowa location (met up with friends for lunch). Staff was very friendly and helpful - we decided to eat outside and they brought the food to us quickly. We had the tacos, regular bowl with carnitas and fajita bowl with steak and pina-mango drink. Food was very tasty and freshly made. Will come back to try El Pastor. Definitely recommend Sombrero Tacoria.“

“Queridos Alex y María, Desde el principio captaron mi atención. Su huella en la industria es única; a lo largo de los años, su constancia ha sido de primera. Oro para que cada proyecto en el que se aventuren multiplique su fe en Dios.“

“It is a wonderful place to eat. Friendly and wonderful place to enjoy a great meal“

“Margaritas are gas and a great deal during happy hour. But oh my god... the barbacoa tacos are the best item on the menu. El Coco is in my top three taco places in NYC. The green sauce is fire. The lighting in here is cute too and I always love the vibe with the upbeat music that's always playing“

“Toda su comida deliciosa Me encantó estar en New York No extrañe mi comida 🫰🏻“

“Tacoria is easily my go-to lunch spot since I work nearby, and it never disappoints. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and honestly one of the highlights of my workday. On top of that, the staff is always so friendly and welcoming especially Peter and Jose, which makes the experience even better. Great food and great people. You really can’t ask for more. Highly recommend!“

“I had just spent two weeks in Mexico and was craving some tacos in New York. This taqueria happened to be around the corner from my hotel and I didn't expect much, but the birria tacos were outstanding! Tender meat, perfect amount of cheese with it. The broth was delicious. The Rufino salad was excellent as well.

It's a small place with a nice terrace, Sunday evening there weren't too many people but in any case the food is worth a visit, and the waiters were also exceptionally friendly. Really enjoyed my trip around the corner.“

“I came here for the reviews and because a friend recommended it. But the tacos were dry as heck! The quesadilla barely had cheese and was served open faced. You would’ve thought it was a taco too. Personally, I wouldn’t come back.“

“Everything on the menu is excellent I have never had a bad meal. Margaritas are a must“

“Great food! we go every time we are in the city.“

“Love the birria tacos and quesadillas! The food is always delicious, but what really makes the experience is the service. Andres always makes me feel right at home and takes great care of us. Amazing food, great atmosphere, and even better service. Definitely one of my favorite spots!“

“Without a doubt the best taco’s I’ve ever had! Cute neighborhood establishment. Really nice staff! Thank you! 🌮🌮🌮🌮❤️“
