50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Lake Hiawatha

“I've been in LH for a year and just got take out this evening. My burrito was so tasty! The chips and salsa were amazing. I will be back soon!“

“We ordered the chicken tacos, chicken nachos and a beef burrito. The food was very good and done at the time we requested (we placed a special request to get it done right away - bad planning on our part - thanks for helping). in addition, we received our food the exact way we requested it and nothing was missing. My only minor complaint is that the burrito is smaller than some places but it was well worth $10, which is a fair price. Everything else was priced fairly as well with large quantities and in most instances cheaper than other places The chicken tacos and nachos was a large, very tasty serving. The person who took our order was very friendly. Two requests - please add churros (your competitors have) & fix online ordering :) we look forward to returning!“

“As a Californian am on the constant look out for excellent Mexican food. I found the place! The food is authentic, delicious and consistently good!

Zee the Manager is a gem, friendly and provides the BEST customer service.

Their specialty are the birria tacos—you won’t be disappointed. Its a large serving and you’ll lick your fingers throughout.

I HIGHLY recommend this restaurant. Clean, excellent service and delicious food.“

“I ordered for the first time and loved the food. The only thing they could do to improve would be to double on the tortillas because one is too thin. The food was delivered and it came quickly within 30 minutes. A La Cocina De Maria, ¡que bueno! Yo quiero visitar la tienda con mi esposo en una cita de la futuro.“

“My husband and I visited this delicious restaurant twice within a week! We were visiting NJ and spotted this delicious place. Let me tell you something: I was born and raised in Yucatán, so I know what a good cochinita tastes like. And I cannot say enough but Central Taquería has done an excellent job on taking care of their flavors and bringing original tastes to this community. Thank you so much for putting so much love into what you offer to the people!“

“The breakfast burritos here are next level. This place deserves more than 5 stars. Staff is also super friendly. Been coming here for years and have never had a bad experience. Food always tastes fresh and you can tell they do not cut corners in the kitchen.“

“Excelent!!

Torta Lokas is a fantastic spot for delicious food and excellent service. The flavors are authentic and perfectly crafted, making every bite a delight. The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring a great experience. Highly recommend for anyone looking for quality and taste!“

“This place had great reviews about being authentic and they are very good. I ordered the short rib Birria Tacos and they were delicious. Corn tortillas taco was on point with spicy sauces on the side. I will be ordering from them again. My only critique the dipping sauce came in a styrofoam cup, and that’s why I gave 4 ⭐️’s but it is a 5. It would be nice if they used paper containers instead. ??????

We are so glad we stumbled upon this business. I personally love their Al Pastor tacos and Ground Beef Tacos (idk how they cook the beef but it is INCREDIBLE).

I cannot suggest them enough. You get a ton for your money and it truly feels like a home cooked meal.“

“The Food Is Absolutely Great. Limited Seats but they also deliver. My Favorite is the Tacos de al pastor. If you’re looking for real authentic Mexican Food this is the place in the area. They have specials everyday like Mole, caldo de pollo, etc. Flan , Geltine , chicharon preparados, esquite and much more“

“Excellent food and service“

“With the TV on and the Mexican music playing, it was sensory overload for me! The waitress did turn off the tv when asked. She was very sweet.

They do not serve complementary chips and salsa like other places do. Waitress was very polite but knew very little English, which made my family nervous as we have food allergies and are vegetarians. However, the order was fine and the food seemed to be of good quality. I thought that $55 was a little pricey for a family of four, but I’m sure that some people could have gone cheaper.“

“The food was delicious, the portions were huge and the prices are extremely reasonable. on a scale of one to ten, it gets a 10.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I can't say enough good things about Riviera Maya Mexican in Rockaway! This place has quickly become a favorite stop for me and my fellow soldiers during our drill weekends. The food is consistently fresh and absolutely delicious, with a wide variety of options that never disappoint.

The service is always fast and friendly, making us feel right at home every time we visit. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure we have a great experience, which is truly appreciated, especially when we come in with a group of about a dozen.

If you're looking for a fantastic meal in a welcoming atmosphere, look no further than Riviera Maya Mexican. Highly recommend!“

“There are some restaurants/cafes/joints, and the moment you enter, you get the vibe, and you know you are at the right place. This is one of those places and another cool place to hang out with friends in Morristown downtown.

We had
* Hand Crafted Tacos ( 3 Pc)- Chicken
* Burrito Box- comes with chicken over rice, black beans, cheese, salsa,

On the side, we had-
* Mexican Street Corn (Go for it) and
* Chips & Guacamole – chips were so fresh & crunchy

Drink-
they had inhouse Guava-Basil & Horchata flavor drinks (I missed their bottle though)

We had our food there only and why not, why miss the cool ambiance & music… we enjoyed our food out there…

Ambiance- top-notch, rugged/casual vibe, Graffiti in different languages, murals/wall art, hip hop music- So cool

The celling sign- AMORESVIDA (Love for life)- that was too cool…

price was also reasonable.“

“This place is a 5 star. The Margarita's are superb. The nacho pilled pork was good. The fish tacos were alright but the 3 sauces made it better. Coming from a euro trip where u tell them how much tip and they add and just tap.your card needs to be done here in the us. Makes it easier.“

“Love the tortas & tacos! A+“

“Excellent, fresh food. Beautiful homemade willows. Dishes are well presented and made with love. I loved the chicken packed with veggies in soft tacos with green mild sauce and fresh lime. ($9 for 3) I had fresh cut papaya for dessert. The kitchen was run by Mexican women on Memorial day, they spoke Spanish and English. It seems to be a meeting place for day laborers. The food does not disappoint. Authentic and casual. 4 large tables and bar seating available. The coffee was fresh. ?? Excellent, fresh food. Beautiful homemade sauces.
