50 Best Mexican Restaurants near North Arlington

“Great food and prices.... the servers are excellent and attentive. I been there at least 10 times and it never dissapoint. I highly recommend it“

“Been going here since they opened, in 2008 I believe...the best.“

“I’ve had the pleasure of dining at Maguey a couple of times now and I can now say without a doubt that this place is now in my go-to list for places to eat in the Kearny area. I had the calamari every time I’ve gone and I believe it may be one of the best I’ve had. The calamari is fresh, fried perfectly, and the accompanying sauce is rich and flavorful. You can’t go wrong with any of the food on the menu as it’s all delicious. It might just be my personal taste, but I would prefer if they used maybe a pinch of salt more than they normally do. That is not to say these dishes are not spiced wonderfully, they definitely are. I just like salt. I hope more people stop into this restaurant and support the local business.“

“I had an amazing experience with my recent Taco Bell order! The burrito I got was perfect. This was the one of the greatest burritos I ever had in my life, and from TACO BELL??? I literally placed my order, went to the bathroom and washed my hands, and when I stepped out of the bathroom, my food was ready on the counter. Everything was fresh and hot when I sat down to eat it in my car. The staff was friendly and kind as well. Highly recommend this Taco Bell location for anyone craving a tasty, satisfying meal.“

“Absolutely incredible place I even got to meet the manager. The guy was awesome. I recommend this place completely to anybody else is off the hook fantastic“

“The pork chop was succulent and had the most amazing spice combination. The barbacoa was the best I have ever had. Not a fan of the mezcal, but I gave it a try. Other more common drinks looked great with a good pour. Good vibe and open late with a super friendly staff!“

“Great food! Best margaritas!“

“Such a friendly place with great food. Everything was delicious except I was confused by the taste of the mild salsa negra until I was told it was Vegennaise based. More of a salad dressing than a salsa. And we shared the coconut leche pie. Definitely try it if you have room for dessert.“

“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.“

“I had an amazing dining experience at Fortaleza, and a huge part of that was thanks to Karen, our server. She was incredibly attentive, making sure every detail was perfect, and her friendly, accommodating nature made us feel so welcomed. Karen anticipated our needs before we even had to ask, and her service was flawless. It’s clear she truly cares about her guests’ experience. I highly recommend dining here and hope to be served by her again! Visit Karen!!! At Fortaleza Garfield NJ“

“My husband and I recently had dinner at Cantina 46, and we were thoroughly impressed. Everything we ordered was delicious. We enjoyed the skirt steak with shrimp, lamb chops, and guacamole, paired with tamarind and guava mojitos. The atmosphere was very pleasant, enhanced by a live singer. I would definitely visit Cantina 46 again.

“We were just in NYC last week for a sisters/nieces trip and on our first night, we went here for dinner. We. Had. So. Much. Fun. The food was very good, drinks were great—we had several different ones, all good. We also did the six desserts for $45 and they were all wonderful! Since one in our party was having a birthday, we also got the birthday piñata. So fun! It was delivered to the table with sparklers and a bubble machine! The DJ was very energetic and played lots of great music. He was also gracious enough to play a couple of hillbilly requests we made. Our waitress was phenomenal and took great care of us! We truly enjoyed our time there!“

“los mejores tacos al pastor!!!!!👍👍👍👍“

“Always walked past this place but never had the opportunity to try. Finally brought my parents here for them to experience Mexican food and this place was perfect!! Right from the decor, the tall open windows and the open kitchen, this place was a total vibe!
The spicy margaritas were delicious and a pitcher was perfect for the four of us. We also had the Guac and Totopos (freshly made tortilla chips). My dad tried the fried Baja fish taco and seemed to really enjoy it!“

“I pass this place often in my travels so I finally decided to give it a try. Initially when I walked in and saw the prices of everything I almost walked out because everything seemed overpriced. But I figured since I was already there I may as well give it a try. And thank God I did The food and service were amazing and made my trip and the money worth it.“

“When Paterson Ave Deli closed a few years back, I never thought I’d get to eat one of Roy’s cheesesteaks I loved so much again. Luckily for us, we stumbled upon this place today and found our long lost favorite! I couldn’t be more excited to know the chef behind our favorite deli has his own place with an eclectic menu, great prices and a great location. I got the cheesesteak and fries and my girlfriend got the Reuben (a sandwich she’s lamented missing from Paterson Ave Deli for YEARS) - two full satisfying meals for $30. This was such an exciting find, and I cannot wait to come back and try the rib sandwich and general tsos burrito. I hope Mr. Roy’s is here for a long time!“

“The food was amazing as well as the pineapple margarita. They have such variety in their cocktail offerings. Don’t leave without trying the nachos! We will be back.“

“Very authentic Mexican food, especially the mole which is really hard to get just right. Great brunch options - had the mole enchiladas, salsa verde enchiladas, guacamole, and corn pancakes. All delicious. Don’t expect basic Tex Mex food.

Drinks were delicious with generous portions. Service was very attentive. Loved the bohemian ambience.“

“My wife and I very much enjoyed our dinner at Casa Carmen. The food was exquisite and flavorful with a wide selection of dishes both for sharing and main courses. The cocktails were well balanced and highlighted mexican spirits and flavors. Our server was incredibly attentive and friendly, gave great recommendations, and explained where each dish comes from and how it is made. Most of all, the atmosphere was great! Wonderful mexican decor and not too loud we could actually have a conversation. 100% will be back“

“This place is wonderful. Great cocktails, great food, great service. I've been here probably two dozen times in the last year. Their mission statement and commitment to Mexican communities making the best Mezcal that's out there is wild to me. If you have the money to go out and spend, doing so here is going to really great places. Also the owner is just the nicest person.“
