15 Best Tex-Mex Restaurants near Holmdel

“We love to stop in at Chili’s To grab a quick bite. They make the best frozen margaritas. And their 3 for 3 Appetizers are the so good! I always get a bowl of their baked potato soup. It is the great! Sometimes we’ll Order an entrée. But the Appetizers and soup are usually enough. My husband loves their fajitas. The last time I was, there was with my daughter, and we shared the Reese’s peanut butter pie dessert. It was delicious! I strongly recommend Chili’s.“

“You have to try the Chiwawa it's so good!!!!“

“We love the classic nachos and the Chipotle bowl. The chocolate chip dessert id another story, hard as a rock!“

“Delicious food coupled with an enjoyable atmosphere! The staff is both pleasant and attentive! It has become a favorite of ours! 👍“

“Edit: Raising this from 1 to 4 star after speaking with the owner. It seems this was an outlier situation and they were very kind and receptive.

We came in at 8:20 PM (place closes at 9). The woman behind the counter seemed very detached and exhausted so I tried to be sympathetic. My burrito was a magnificent slop, not rolled properly at all. The soda fountain was out of CO2, so all the soda was flat - I made a comment but the employee didn't care even though she had charged me for the drink. The food wasn't bad but nothing remarkable or exciting.“

“The staff was friendly and efficient. The place was clean and comfortable. The food was tasty, and the portions were decent. It's a bit pricey for a burrito lunch (35 bucks for 2 people), but almost every eatery falls into that category nowadays.“

“horrible experience & poor food quality. we ordered $90 of food tonight. first when trying to order i asked about the birria tacos in their Facebook post. the woman who answered told me that they dont call them birria tacos, they are called barbacoa. they required us to order from uber eats even though they advertise in town delivery. so we did. the tortillas with green sauce is rico's version of a chalupa. it was inedible. we ordered a steak chimichanga - it was very fatty. the quesadilla was delivered in the form of a taco. somehow an order for nachos we put in uber eats, was deleted. when we called to let them know somethings were not correct in the order and we were really dissapointed we were told this is not taco bell. at the end of the unhelpful conversation about their poor service and food quality, the final response was, "You got everything you deserved." very unprofessional. all around a bad experience. the food was not good. we love to support local businesses but will not be back to Rico Taco Mex 2.“

“First time there and it won’t be the last.........absolutely delicious!“

“I was greeted by Tyleek as soon as I walked in the door, my order was a little annoying but he smiled made my meals exactly how I asked and also chatted with me while making the food. Nedene was at the register to ring me up and she was just as nice as Tyleek. The two of them are awesome and I hope they are working the next time I go back.“

“we got two entrees and an app. the chips were forgotten and there was a wait but very understandable with being grand opening around dinner time hours. birria was phenomenal IMO. Queso was very smooth with a nice spice . the pineapple salsa was very tasty. a lot of promise with this company . would def order again“

“Very Cool Setting & Layed Back Atmosphere
Great pours on mixed drinks.
The tacos were the best I’ve had since the late 80’s in Acapulco.
Creative menu with lotsa options.
Can’t wait to graze the menu next visit.“

“Good food, great service!“
