Don't miss Garfield's top Mexican restaurants, as recommended by Restaurantji.
“We love this place!!!! Every time we place a order in not even 20 minutes they are at the door of my house with nice still hot food. I hate when you order from somewhere it takes a hour plus and the food is cold. Their food here is very reasonable priced and their customer service and delivery time is amazing. The delivery guy always remembers you, even after only 1 time ordering and always greets us with a smile and asks us how you been. Have tried many other Chinese places around Garfield. But now this is the only one we order from, and have been doing so for years.. You should try them out!“
“A visit to a local taco place led to the discovery of an incredible flour tortilla with pork and spicy sauce. This dish impressed with its deliciously tender and well-seasoned pork, while the flour tortilla offered a lovely soft and chewy experience. The spicy sauce brought the perfect level of heat, complementing the dish without overshadowing its flavors. The attached photos attest to the appetizing nature of this delightful meal.Anyone with a craving for a tasty and satisfying meal should undoubtedly consider trying this scrumptious dish. The harmonious blend of flavors and textures promises a memorable dining experience, and the generous filling ensures a satiating outcome. With the inviting appearance showcased in the attached images, there is no doubt that this pork-filled flour tortilla with spicy sauce is a must-try for food lovers everywhere.“
“We walked by Sombrero Restaurant last night needing a place to eat before a 7pm show. We were seated immediately. The restaurant was clean and lively. The wait staff was friendly and the food/beverages were excellent. Prices were very reasonable. A great choice. Definitely recommend.“
“Folks from California in particular like to complain that New York doesn't have good Mexican food, which is of course patently untrue. You just have to know where to look, what to order. I got the poblano mole here which I would definitely recommend. (I also had the handmade tortillas with this.) My husband got a burrito, which was fine, I think, but no "mission burrito" (IYKYK). Both of us had clean plates though -- the testament of a good meal I thought the salsas that came with the chips and salsa were all pretty good too. Nothing was mind blowing but the service was super friendly and I walked away with my food cravings pretty satisfied.“
“We came here on the recommendation of a friend and even with her glowing review, we were still blown away! Every dish was delicious, the service was friendly and attentive, and the prices were a steal. Our family had the truffle quesadillas, the carne asada tacos, and the langosta tacos. We shared an order of guac and the kids had the flan and churros for dessert. Great dinner; we can't wait to return!“
“After being delighted by our first Los Tacos No 1 experience, we headed to Los Mariscos for our last food stop before leaving NYC. We ate it on the bus, so my memories are a bit blurry. The ceviche especial ($7.50) was delicious! I loved the crispy tostada and the savory citrusy flavors. I think there could've been a higher seafood:vegetable ratio, but the flavors and textures made up for the sparse amount of seafood. I tried the tacos a bit past their peak, but they were still pretty good. Overall I think I prefer the meats I had at Los Tacos, but it's hard to compare since I didn't have the seafood tacos fresh. I definitely want to return and dine in!“
“We enjoyed the food and amazing service here. The ambiance is cozy and perfect if you’re going in a date night.Also this is a BYOB place so you can get your own bottle.The Guac & chips were fresh and delicious.The tacos were good too.We also tried a new dish - Salta Patras Ceviche and it was delicious.Special mentioned to the Tres leches which wasn’t over sweet.Definitely try out this place. It deserves more spotlight.“
“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.“
“Mamsitas offers an authentic Mexican dining experience with vibrant decor and a lively atmosphere. The menu features standout dishes like handcrafted tacos and rich mole poblano. The service is friendly and efficient, making for a pleasant meal from start to finish. With reasonable prices and delicious margaritas, Mamsitas is a fantastic choice for anyone craving genuine Mexican flavors in a festive setting. Highly recommended for a casual dinner or a festive night out!“
“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! We ordered the beef nachos to share and I got the taco with steak and boy do they bless it with the portions! I was visiting and a friend brought me here so definitely would want to come back next time I’m around!“
“I've gone 2 times within the past 2 weeks and I'm hooked. You might not expect it walking in, but it's the perfect little gem for Hackensack. The taco tuesday specials are great but the delicious tacos make it more worth it. The margaritas are yummy too“
“I’ve been to different locations of la fortaleza but this one is by far the best. Incredibly great service and the food was so good. Karen made our experience incredible and gave us amazing service. My wife had the chilaquiles and I had chiles rellenos I loved it.“
“Stop by for dinner without a reservation and The Manager and hostess were very accommodating on a very busy night . We had the fish empanadas that were deliciousA couple of MargaritasGrilled Branzino and fish schnitzelA wonderful experienceKudos to the CheffExcellent service, fantastic food and great atmosphere!Definitely a special place“
“Best tacos in New York CityWhen I come to New York, all I think about is Rostaco.It's really delicious here tooTacos and Consome are steamedIf you see it while passing by, be sure to try it!!!This is a really good restaurant that locals know!!!“
“We loved the bottomless brunch experience here, just $30 for 90 minutes and the drinks were strong! I loved the breakfast burrito and French toast, and the Queso FUNDIDO to start!Amazing and attentive service and a space that was great for our birthday brunch!“
“Service was really great, all of the different positions of staff were very attentive! Go for the guac and 7 salsas, will not disappoint. The criticisms, I had were surrounding the price points, and menu variety. The prices were absolutely too high for the portions! I understand a small, curated menu, but it was too eclectic for what it was!“
“It was my first time visiting here. It was an amazing experience!.? You must try the frozen margaritas. ?The customer service was outstanding.????? While at the bar "Alexa" was very attentive to all out needs and making sure we had the best experience ever! I would definitely come back soon! I'm gonna recommend this place to my family and friends!??“
“Thank you very much for this moment. Excellent food, attentive service with good advice. The service team is superbDish: mole del puebla and vg quesadillasNacho starterDessert: plantain flambéed with rum and scoop of vanilla ice creamDrink: large iced lemon margaritaSee you soon ❤️“
“Came to this place not knowing what to expect but saw lots of great reviews and I can absolutely say it lived up to its ratings. Me and the fam got to try the tenders(hugee), ribs, rotisserie chicken, burgers, general tsos and chopped cheese sandwich and OH MY was it DELICIOUS. The people here were also very friendly and accommodating, they also had good music playing in the background. Definitely recommend this spot to anyone in or out of town. I will be coming back for more as it seems they updated their menu with some great new stuff that I can't wait to try. Small but tasty restaurant!Vegetarian options: Veggie Panini, Veggie Wrap, Veggie Burrito and Veggie BurgerKid-friendliness: Very Friendly and have kid options.“
“We celebrated my bestfriend birthday here and our server marina was amazing please make sure to ask for her. The customer service was immaculate. The manager touched the rouble and converted with us about our experience.definitely a must go we will be back again and tell all our family and friends.“
“The exquisite food with a flavor of Mexico, the excellent service Valeria and Irma are always friendly and attentive to their customers, they are two of the best, from the Passaic Fortress 204 Hope Ave we are in the county of Ocean County and we travel more than once time to enjoy the best authentic Mexican food, and the excellent service of Valeria and Irma and thanks to the entire team that makes up the fortress of hope ????????????????“
“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!“
“When I find a gem, I share it! Yes, yes, yes! Hallelujah to good food! We were trying to find some tacos to eat before going home and I came across a little taco truck that I had to try! They have the pastor tacos in the traditional rotating-roster, and they were delish! I also had an elote ? with everything, and a tiny bit of the powder-picante was enough for me to get a kick of spice in my mouth that turned on all the right taste buds! The lady who took care of us was polite, fast, and so kind! I will definitely be back to try the other tacos they have!!“
“This place was awesome!! I asked how long takeout would be, and the very kind host said he could make it extra fast. the food was ready in literally under 7 minutes, it was wild!! and delicious! got cheese enchiladas and quesadillas. the vibes inside were great, the decor was stylish - I hope to go back when i’m in less of a rush so I can enjoy the restaurant to the fullest, and try the drinks :)“
“Nice atmosphere, really tasty and cheap meals. We had lunch, 2 people for $26 which is great for the area. Very generous plates and burritos, with drink included and little carrot cake for desert. Only if you really eat a lot will be able to finish the plate! Recommend!!“
“This is a great place that I unexpectedly stumbled upon. From the outside it kind of just looks like a small convenience store, but once we ordered and got our food were were so happy. You basically just order your food and they bring it to you after it's done. I ordered the chicken burrito and it was packed with flavor. Another person in my party ordered the chicken quesadilla and is still raving about it! It's really a great find on 9th Avenue and will definitely be back.“
“My sister and I stopped in Jajaja Mexicana for lunch. The restaurant is inside Whole Foods, and is in the far back of the dining area. We each had the turmeric cauliflower bowl which was absolutely delicious. We also shared chips and salsa and were able to try the hot sauces The charcoal hot sauce is a must try! I highly recommend checking out Jajaja!“
“This is without a doubt the best banh mi in town. The bread is utter perfection, the ingredients always fresh, and just the right level of spice. The staff are very friendly and the owner is actively involved. I had a problem with my order, which he personally resolved. I was very impressed why his commitment to customer satisfaction. I will be a customer for life. Keep up the great work!“
“I’m addicted! The menu is simple, the food is flavorful and well presented. Service is wonderful and great value. Casual setting with beach-y/food truck vibes vs a restaurant-proper. I suspect that this place would have a lot more foot traffic if it were in town near Bloomfield Ave or Watchung, but I’m happy to have it so nearby in Upper Montclair, and I hope they are a long-standing fixture here (have seen a few places coke and go in this spot). The food here stands out miles ahead of a couple of nearby Mexican options, albeit smaller menu.“
“We recently had the pleasure of dining here today. This restaurant brings out the food of its people with great prices. The tacos are made with fresh, high-quality ingredients, and the flavors are truly authentic. We tried the fried pork, beef birria and chicken birria tacos and churros they were excellent. The tortillas are made fresh daily. The staff were friendly and attentive. Overall, we had a wonderful meal. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves authentic Mexican food.“
“Faith is a wonderful server! Started with Naked Guacamole, and Shrimp Taquitos. Burrito Carnta, Quesadilla Carne Asada, BBQ Seitan Taco with Rice and Beans, and Shrimp Taco. All the food was AMAZING. Cadillac Margarita, Tito's, Negra Modelo's and Justin Cabernet Sauvignons made for a fantastic evening. Thank you we will be back“
“This is the best Mexican food I've had in Jersey!! It's family owned and the family is incredibly friendly. The food is authentic, it tastes like it was served straight out of abuela's kitchen. The homemade sauces and dishes are delicious and unique in taste. They serve birria tacos occasionally which are to die for !!! The place is cozy and bright. They deliver, prices are reasonable and the food tastes great even reheated. I love this spot!!!“
“Food was delicious and service was excellent. We went on Saturday for brunch not expecting very loud music. Alejandra was very accommodating and offered to seat us away from the sound system. She frequently checked in on us and made our stay comfortable. If you you’re up for dancing go here.“
“Wow! After looking at many places on Columbus that just didn’t thrill us, we were SO happy to find the incredibly delicious Mexican cuisine at Nina’s last night I had the Cochinita Pibil (with an orange habanero salsa on the side that will let you know who’s boss…) and my old friend had Enchiladas Mole with chicken. Excellent and authentic food with warm, friendly staff, and a great bar selection with many tequilas. Nina’s is great! Reasonable too! Glad to give credit where it’s due to this 7mo old establishment that I hope stays for many years! Will return for more!“
“This place is gorgeous! We were impressed right away by the ambiance and the service. We ordererd a spicy margarita and loved it! The drinks are exceptional and the salsa is so delicious! We are vegetarian and there are a handful of options - the cheese quesadilla was soooo good. Honestly, the best food we've had in NYC since we've been here this week.“
“I went to New York with my family last year and we are not used to Winter and it was raining and we had two tired little girls and we were very welcome and we enjoyed the service and the meals so much I rate 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
“The food is AMAZING !!! was a last minute thing and we are so happy we went ! Taste so authentic, and family owned. Out family had an amazing time ! Fries , Barria tacos , horchata, burritos.. all recommended! We will be back to try there pupusas. “
“I stopped by on my way home from the gym. I order an al pastor burrito. It was really seasoned well and flavorful. It wasn't small and it wasn't huge either. It was a good size. I left feeling full but not stuffed. I'm looking forward to trying their tacos.“
“Everything made with love. I'm a gringo that knows how to speak spanish. Let me say this: I don't think there's a better option in the 100mile radius for authentic mexican food made with love and care. Oscars the best! If you haven't tried you have to right now!!“
“This is definitely the fanciest of all their locations. This location has a sprawling full bar, which is also unique for them. I won’t go into details because all of their tacos were delicious. The manager came by our table and hung out with us for a few minutes and asked us about what we thought and for some feedback which was also a nice surprise.“
“Burgers and Chinese food at one place, never would have thought! Burgers were good, big and juicy, and relatively inexpensive. The "caramelized onions" were those fried onions you get from a can and not really caramelized onions. But for 10 bucks with fries and a can of soda, im ok with it.“
“My wife and I went to Bitol for Saturday Brunch and all I can say is WOW. We were both extremely surprised with the great service and food. We sat at the bar and Hailey was great, one of the best Bloody Marias (Mayan Maria) I have had. My wife loved the Butterfly Pea Tea Mimosas that came with her Mimosa flight. They had great brunch food options and we both really enjoyed our dishes, their guacamole app with the Sikil-P’ak was on point!! We will be back again for brunch, looking forward to their Taco Tuesday night, as well as future dinners at Bitol.“
“This was my second visit to the establishment, and the experience was as positive as the first. I ordered a carne asada burrito and an Elote. The burrito was substantial and satisfying, although I would have preferred a more generous serving of chips or none at all. The Elote was delicious, but it is advisable to allow it to cool slightly before consuming.Upon entering the establishment, we were greeted cordially and directed to a table. Menus were provided, and we were informed that orders should be placed at the cashier, where drinks could also be obtained.The decor of the establishment is noteworthy, featuring a luchador theme. Spanish music was played at an appropriate volume, creating a pleasant ambiance.I intend to return to sample additional dishes from the menu.“
“Shocked I haven't been to this gem as I love Mexican food and always searching for great options in NYC. Though they don't take reservations, was able to come here on a Thursday with a group of 5. The service was fast and the sangria was delicious! The margaritas also looked quite good, but I knew I would be drinking wine later, so I really enjoyed my sangria! The chips and salsa are of course a great feature, but recommend getting the guac as well. Very fresh and great flavor. My shrimp burrito was really, really, REALLY delicious. The seasoning and cook on the shrimps were outstanding and was happy with the amount of shrimps in the burrito - they didn't skimp on the shrimp! I was also very hungry, so I got a side of fried plantains, which were very good and hit the spot. The crema you dip them in also goes great across the meal. Great place for a cool date night, drinks and apps on the way out, or a celebratory spot!“
“Aesthetically pleasing with all the art on the walls. Lighting was just right. Not too dark. Really enjoyed the tacos. they are bigger than the normal taco and packed fully. I had 2 tacos but could have gotten away with 1. I had the pork birria and beef brisket taco. Enjoyed both. I also had some nachos for an appetizer. Enjoyed that. Perfect size for a little bite before the entree showed up. Our server was amazing. She was very friendly and caring. Made sure our needs were met. Thank you. Definitely recommend“
“You can't get better Mexican food in California or Arizona. The food is phenomenal! Eliseo was our serve. He was amazing. Very friendly, efficient, and busy. He had a great personality for this industry. The ambiance was lively, loud, and so much fun. Thank you, Eliseo, for a wonderful time.“
“While out picking up wedding cake samples nearby, my fiancee and I literally happened on Victoria's by total chance on Saturday, 01/13. We arrived at around noon and may have been the first people to show up for the day. Given how quiet the restaurant was, we didn't want to get our hopes up but BOY did this place deliver. As soon as we took our first bite of the complementary (and addicting) warm black bean dip with fresh, salty tortillas we knew we were in for a treat! I ordered the burrito which was loaded with the most flavorful and perfectly cooked chicken. My fiancee ordered tacos (4 per order) - 2 fish and 2 barbacoa. The tacos and salsas were super fresh and tasty. I love that they didn't try to overcomplicate anything - just extremely delicious food without the need for gastronomics and extra flair. Even though this is about a 25 minute drive from us, I definitely think we'll be making another trip back!“
“Went there for a quick bite and sat outside, little did we know it was taco Tuesday so they have kind of a BOGO special. Food was amazing, nice outdoor setup, service was phenomenal, quick and super attentive, making sure we got the best out of the Taco deals. Our check came surprisingly low for what we got. I would definitely recommend to stop by while the nice weather is blessing NYC.“
“We absolutely love coming here! The service is friendly, the food is delicious, the drinks are yummy. A big shout out to Lily! What a beautiful soul and a superior attitude! Thank you for the best food and drinks! Salute!Parking: Lots of spots to park.Kid-friendliness: The kids love the colorful atmosphere“
