50 Best Mexican Restaurants near North Arlington

“3rd String on a blind date, but guess what the food was great I got the bria tacos plus they brought out extra nachos. We got some wings and things my man got some fries. I guess what I bet ill call this as a five star restaurant next time I pull it this side nor Arlington baby.“

“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.“

“What happens when really great Mexican and Venezuelan seafood come together? El Rey de Pescado, culinary bliss! Such a great penultimate 2022 dinner tonight. So good that we devoured everything before any pics were taken, except for the warm, chocolate filled empanadas and strawberry ice cream dessert. Cocktails were perfection. And live Jazz! Go in 2023! We'll be. Feliz Año Nuevo everyone, be safe.?“

“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.“

“Lo mejor y el mejor servicio….Gracias“

“Caliente cab was a birthday outing for me and it was amazing. They waited until my final guest came to take orders. The food came out quickly, hot and delicious. Every time extra thing we asked for came without hesitations. They checked on us without being overbearing. I was surprised with a free bday dessert that was also delicious. Drinks were strong and great size for the price. Music could've been better but we were so busy eating and talking no one paid much attention. Overall 10/10! Great spot food drinks and service.“

“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.

I would definitely visit Cantina 46 again.

“Gina and her team accommodated our last minute order of 31 gallons of Aguas Frescas to serve to our team members in our hot manufacturing plant on a 95 degree summer day. We got the Horchata, Limonada and Mango Piña flavors. They were all a hit. Our team members (who are tough critics) were SO happy with them! We will definitely be ordering from Sombrero again! ☺️ Thank you Gina and the entire Sombrero team! 10/10 customer service.“

“The space inside is very open and welcoming, beautifully decorated, comfortable and roomy. The food was fantastic. From rich and satisfying enchiladas mole to perfectly-cooked cod, all seven of us were happy with our food. The pineapple upside-down cake is dreamy, so save room for it! Our server and all the staff were so friendly, attentive without hovering, and helpful. I loved my experience there and hope to return.“

“Absolutely Great Experience! Everytime I go there they’re always very nice and the food is fantastic! I read all the bad reviews and they have no idea what they’re talking about. When I go, everyone I interact with is very welcoming and kind. And it has the perfect amount of seasoning I recommend the birria tacos for sure!“

“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.“
