50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Norwood

“Finally a really delicious taco place in the area. The service was great, the lady at the register was so nice, friendly and helpful. We ordered to take home, had planned on eating inside but there was no heat inside. My wife had Birria Tacos and a Quesabarria, she really enjoyed them both, especially the Tacos. I had the crunchy Taco and Quesadillas, both were very good. The crunchy Taco was so good, this place really knows how to make Tacos. We will be back for sure. Highly recommend trying. Also ordered churros, but didn't try yet.“

“Just had the absolute pleasure of dining at La Casa Bronxville for the first time. Where do I start? It had been recommended to me by a couple of friends as a really unique, quality twist to the Mexican dining genre and were they ever correct. Started with the warm and friendly greeting and spacious well decored bar and dining areas. Once seated and presented with the menu - I was pleasantly suprised with the cool spin on some of the more traditional Mexican menu items (ex. Oyster soft tacos to die for - and I don't even like oysters but these were out of this world). The quality of the ingredients and food items are clearly a top priority for the management and the chef. The owner Spencer Pingle is very present and you feel it. He explained that the chips, guac and many other main items are freshly made in house daily - any wow the flavors pop!!! I can go on for quite a bit about this Westchester GEM but I will simply recommend that you go for this experience and see for yourself. Very reasonably priced for the impeccable food quality, portions and presentation. YES YES YES!!!!“

“Love! Love! Love! I come atleast once a week for the last 2 years! it’s a friendly environment and the fooood is everything. Yonkers finest margaritas for sure I highly recommend ask for pavel she’s definitely the best bartender!!!! ???“

“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 have been going to G's for over 20 years. The food is excellent. I love the breakfast burrito with chorizo, and their tortas, and their flautas. Everything thing is outstanding. They make great coffee The service is awesome. Very nice.“

“This is the best place to get Mexican food in yonkers, I've tried a lot of places in the area but nothing comes close to here. I've had Tacos Al Pastor, Tacos Dorados and Enchiladas de Mole Poblano. They also make incredible in house hot sauces. The only thing they do not have is any hard liquor on site, so don't expect margaritas but the food is enough to satisfy anyone, come check out this hidden gem in Yonkers!“

“I've been to Tobalá a couple of times since they opened, and their food, drinks, and service have always been great. But last night, they were absolutely stunning. I tried a few dishes (Memelas de Wagyu and Enmoladas de Pato) for the first time, and I was in shock, super delicious!! I want to congratulate their staff and owners for their constant effort to elevate the experience at Tobalá and improve every day, bringing this beautiful concept to the community. Definitely my favorite restaurant in the area.“

“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.“

“I ordered two beef steak quesadillas with the flour taco and those were absolutely fantastic!! Tender bits of steak, and a green chile sauce and a red hot sauce served in small plastic cups to pour all over these heavenly dishes! Enter the Tacos; I want you guys to know that you cannot order just ONE taco, they need to be ordered two at a time. So if you want just ONE taco they won't sell it to you! I ordered two chicken tacos and two steak (carnitas) tacos WITHOUT CILANTRO ! I'm allergic to cilantro. They did a great job of cleaning the stove top before they prepared and heated my food order. Also I told them my wife is allergic to pork, (she's Muslim & it's just easier to tell chefs at these type of establishments that my wife has "allergies" to any pork products. The Tacos were good. Not amazing, but satisfying. I then ordered the chicken fingers which came with a HUGE portion of hot, steamy, French fries! The fries were fried to perfection and the potato flavor was not overpowered by the oil it was fried in. The fries were pretty much perfection. The chicken fingers were square pieces of fried chicken covered in a dark brown bread crumb with some green herbs in the bread crumbs that I could not identify. I didn't like the chicken fingers. They were not what I was expecting. The breading was not tasty and there were short and stubby cuts of flat chicken. I didn't like the looks or the taste. All of this came out to 41$ and some change. I thought overall the food, minus the chicken fingers was fresh- well prepared - and appetizing. The price is a little steep for my pockets. So I probably wouldn't be going here all the time because of pricing alone. Overall the place is very clean and the food appears to be fresh and delicious; but skip the chicken fingers.... Buon Provecho! Buon Appetito!“

“This is our favorite Mexican Restaurant at this moment. The food is delicious, even our toddlers devour the food I love the steak quesadillas!The drinks are also top notch. The beat Frozen Passion Fruit Margarita, hands down!You don't want to miss this place! They will treat you like family!“

“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“

“The spot is super small. Only 3 stools available for seating. The food was delicious! I had the chicken, steak and pork tacos. All three were delicious but the pork taco was soooo good. The pork meat is mixed with ear. It’s the ‘mixto’ pork taco. The staff is very friendly. When I’m back I want to try the birria and al pastor proteins.“

“Umm I come about once a week now. One of the employees almost knows my order on site. LOL does that mean I go too often? The food is soo good & the service is spectacular. My only issue is deciding which day of the week I'm going to go. Give them a try I promise you'll love them.“

“Visiting family in Westchester from Los Angeles - Molcajete definitely passed the bar. The shrimp was big, juicy and fresh, the steak (we got the Molcajete, so it came with everything) was a nice cut and well cooked. Salsas were all super tasty and the guac was legit. Only slight LA pickiness is that it was missing the nopal.“

“Taco Taxi has undoubtedly earned its reputation for serving the best tacos in the world, delivering a culinary experience that transcends expectations. From the moment you take the first bite, you're transported into a world of explosive flavors and authentic Mexican craftsmanship. The tortillas are soft and pillowy, the meats are succulent and perfectly seasoned, and the toppings are a symphony of freshness and zest. Each taco is a work of art, meticulously prepared with a passion for quality ingredients and a deep understanding of flavor profiles. Whether you indulge in the classic carne asada, flavorful al pastor, or any other tantalizing option on the menu, Taco Taxi's commitment to perfection shines through in every savory, satisfying bite. It's not just a meal; it's a journey into taco perfection that sets Taco Taxi apart as a true gem in the world of culinary delights.“

“10/10 Would Definitely recommend. Only issue I had was I was charged 3 different prices for margaritas. It was Margarita Monday and the AD said all margaritas where $6.Regardless of this everything was amazing. The food came out quick!Ended the date with the churro bits (it was too good I forgot to take a picture)“

“Seriously some of the best food I’ve ever had. The chicken burrito is fantastic. The guac is always freshly made. Churros are also great. My girlfriend always gets the spicy shrimp tacos, even though it’s not listed here on the menu. But if you call them they will accommodate. Very nice hidden gem in Lodi.“

“After a miscommunication with our reservation time for 15 of us, Eliseo went out of his way to accommodate us as best he could. Dinner was wonderful, everything everyone ordered was delicious. I had the Korean tacos and they were so good. They also make the guac right in front of the table and was delicious, you get to choose if you want spicy or not. Highly recommend this place if you want to indulge in some Mexican food with a Mariachi band that takes requests on a Friday night. Our server Jay was a delight and he was extremely attentive to our every need. The decorations were beautiful! I loved it here and will be coming back soon!“

“We came on a Saturday for a college reunion. They had a live performer who kept a great ambiance. I tried one Spice Mango Daiquiri and ended up having three as it was so refreshing and flavorful. Definitely coming back. Recommended for groupsWheelchair accessibility: It’s on the first floor. Has a ramp by the entrance.“

“Stopped here on a lazy Saturday evening still looking for really good Mexican food. Everything we had was excellent. Tacos, guac, horchata and pambazo which I had never had before. I wish the restaurant was closer to home. Service was good but we were the only ones in the spot. Would definitely return again.“

“They do not serve the food cold! That's a freaken lie! I live a few blocks away and shop sometimes right after and when i get home its still hot! So please don't believe that. The lines of people speaks for itself! The foods is so delicious and fresh and rated top best on 12 News! Try for yourselfIt's also sad that people give it 1 star because they had to give a tip ! ???“

“You'll leave this place struggling to walk, they give big portions! Also, this is AUTHENTIC Mexican food. We've done lots of traveling and that's something hard to come by away from home (California). The woman who served us was helpful and made sure we had all we needed. This place is on the smaller side but there's some tables where we can sit down and enjoy your food fresh. Highly recommend.“

“I went earlier today(01/15/2023), and this has become my most "NEW FAVORITE HISPANIC FOOD PLACE." The service and hospitality are extremely outstanding. The staff is patient and understanding if you're new and friendly enough to suggest some of the locals' favorites. They have some amazing specials. I loved that the staff was open to customization and embraced my creativity nature. Despite me currently visiting from Las Vegas, NV, I was blown away by the burrito I customized. Granted, it isn't my own creation, although a recreation of an already well-known burrito with accommodation due to my lactose intolerance. It still impressed me for a California style burrito to taste so flavorful without any cheese or sour cream. Even the complimentary chips and salsa were beautifully made. I can't forget about the Orchata as well. It is the best damn Orchta's I ever had! This place is definitely a locals hidden gem that wowed me away. You can tell that a lot of care and love definitely goes into each meal that is created in their kitchen, and this is rare to come by nowadays! I plan to come back before I fly out to. See you soon and keep up the marvelous work! ( :“

“I don’t go to the Bronx enough ?. Anyway, I only had an empanada de queso and a tamale shared with a friend. I wasn’t hungry but rather just more curious and feeding curiosity more than the tummy.My review is for the kind service. I appreciate the people who allowed my friend and I to sit and catch up over a snack. ? Kind service goes a long way.Foodwise, I enjoyed the empanada and empanada. Tamale was a bit too mushy for my taste— I like firm tamales, but it was good green sauce.“

“Amazing trays of 30 tacos and all veggies on the side! Plus we grabbed some Empanadas too! Today was the perfect day for us to try them since we were right at the mall! The owner was too sweet and brought us all kinds of things to try while we were waiting! The Biria was to die for and he brought us this Mexican Pizza absolutely mouthwatering! It is inside the gas station across from the Palisades! Seriously such good authentic Mexican food! He says you can even call and ask what his special is. He tries different things every week! Let's support a small local business! La Fondita Jarocha“

“Taco Thursday’s! Who doesn’t like a taco? Food is very fresh and best Mexican food around. Margaritas are made fresh with squeezed limes not a mix. One of my favorite places for Sunday breakfast! Everyone is very friendly and welcoming.“

“Our friends, family and I (group of 12) went there on Sunday evening. It was our second time and it was even better than the last time! Friendly service, and great food! Everything we ordered was yum all the way to the desert. We already promised to ourselves we will be back next month already. Worth a trip! (We drive approx 40 min) Michas gracias ?“

“Ordered a quick snack... Chicken empanadas... Crispy and stuffed... And the poblano molé inside and on the side was savory sweet and delicious.So good. Need more next time!The loaded nachos were definitely loaded....And a very good size.Took less than 20 minutes from order to delivery.Next time will be trying the birria tacos!Thank you!“

“This is my go-to taco spot, their birria is so good and the food is always fresh for a great price. I recommend the consomé with tacos, their consomé is so good and it always has a lot of meat, and the service is also great I come to this truck at least twice a month these tacos are so good and worth the hype.“

“Went in to grab lunch at this local place, the atmosphere was very warm, and welcoming. The owners are super kind and sweet. I ordered a personal chicken pizza ($10) and it was super delicious and the dough was chewy and amazing. You can tell the ingredients are fresh and made with love.My new favorite lunch spot!“

“I had lunch yesterday with my daughter and her toddler. Valentino was our amazing server. He could not have been more helpful, kind, or quick (which was very appreciated)! The food is always excellent! I’ve had both lunch and dinner there and have always been very happy. I highly recommend it! ❤️“

“Excellent alternative to Chipotle!80% of the time I get their Nashville hot chicken burrito or bowl. This is better than Chipotle for following reasons.1. More flavors/options for your tastebuds.2. I like their reward program better than what other similar chains have.3. Excellent digital experience, easy to use app and on-time pickup. A notification about the ready pickup would be a nice to have.4. They give good portion of meat in your order.5. They also serve wings and deserts.Place is clean and is located in a nice small strip mall..!“

“Wow what a place.. it takes you back in time with cow boys & everything related to them in display across that huge place. The details they have gone through to design that place is commendable. Even the furniture fells like brought back from 1970s..now let's talk about the real thing.. food.. Five of us went & ordered 9 to 10 unique items and every one of them turned out good. Don't miss the Gauc made fresh at the table & so.me house drinks. Lastly the desert, wow wow they were one of the best..“

“Amazing! Did not expect to visit New York and find some of the best Mexican food I've ever had! Enchiladas are my favorite and every new restaurant I try, I always get it; these are likely the best I've ever had! So much depth and flavor. My husband loved his wild mushroom quesadilla and the sauce with it paired so well. The churros and sauce were perfect! Cannot recommend this place enough!“

“On Thursday we stopped by La Fortaleza Lodi. Truly enjoyed the environment. Very authentic. Feels like Mexico close to home. Got to see an old mentor Genaro. We caught up. Took his recommendation of the Trompito y El machete.He was courteous and attentive. He has a passion for attention and observed him take care of his customers throughout the restaurant.Family was very pleased and truly want to come back and experience the beautiful setting at La Fortaleza Lodi. Truly a go to Mexican restaurant to experience and dine in.“

“Tried this restaurant last night and I was impressed! The food was delicious. I had the barbacoa street tacos the meat was delicious. The rice and beans was delicious. The drinks were good. The music was good. A great vibe and I will be back to try some more of my faves. We sat at the bar and it was a good experience.“

“Fun atmosphere & Delicious Authentic Mexican food..Kid-friendliness: Kids are Welcomed & have Yummy deserts for kids..Parking: Beekman, side street non paid parking..Wheelchair accessibility: It’s street level.. Easy in & out..“

“The BEST Mexican we’ve had so far in Westchester. Very cool vibe and decor - especially the chairs and dishes. The guac was fresh, the enchiladas were uniquely crispy with an addicting green sauce, and the birria was incredibly rich and well spiced. For dessert, we got the flan. So rich and creamy - almost cheesecake like. Our server was also very nice. We will be back!“

“We stopped in for lunch after not having been in for many years. No reason other than we seldom think of it because there are several other Mexican places closer to us. We really enjoyed it. It's not a large menu, but it's got enough variety. The food and drinks were excellent, and the service was comfortable - attentive without being rushed or overbearing. Atmosphere seems authentic and is also very comfortable. We enjoyed a terrific lunch for a around the same price we would have paid for a sandwich and fries some place else. We left very satisfied and looking forward to our next visit.“

“I go here almost everyday on my lunch break and have never had a bad experience. we are always greeted with a smile and the staff is super personable. they are very accommodating and make sure you are pleased with your order. aside from the great customer service, the food is fresh and delicious. would definitely recommend.“

“Absolutely top-notch authentic Mexican food. Outdoor seating when the weather permits. I am blown away by one of their ceviches called “Vuelve a la Vida”. I order it every time.Be sure to order a dish that comes with rice and refried beans. Their refried beans are to die for! This is a 6 star review, but Google only allows me to put 5 stars. The food is consistently delicious and I always have a great experience at Gardenia’s.“

“Hello SirI saw a video of you being very Generous to your employee and that gave chills, the way you act was selfless and really inspired me. I'm from London ,Uk and I will definitely come to your shop when I'm in new York.Keep inspiring my friend .??“

“Not familiar with the area so I just picked from the phone map app. Brought us to a busy street, with a lot of eateries and so much Halloween decor. Coco's is a small place, with 3 tables and a window seating area for 3 people. But, so many people going in and out. Luckily, there was a table when we got there. We ordered at the counter and someone brought the food to our table. Pretty big menu so we tried some food which were new to us. Pancita is a red, spicy soup with tripe, served with soft tortillas. Seemed like a soup with a lot of chili-type oil so wasn't for me; I just ate the tripe pieces with rice and beans and I liked that better. Chimichanga was fried, filled with a lot of shredded beef and cheese - a bit salty so needed to eat with the salad and rice and beans it came with. Lengua tacos were ok, no distinct flavor or texture for me. Elote de la esquina was boiled corn (not grilled) with a generous amount of cotija cheese and red pepper but was neither too salty or too spicy, which was good for me. Smart to put in a tall plastic drink container.Street parking - we were lucky to find one nearby though.“

“5 stars for offering super healthy food in the Rivertowns! The menu has expanded and now includes fajita bowls served in lovely earthenware. The atmosphere has become cozy with soft lighting and beautiful flower filled vases on each table. Great value and service. It was busy on a Tuesday evening; this is good news for anyone searching for healthy delicious food in the area.“

“The Taco Project is a cool restaurant. Loved the vibe and the food was pretty good.Food: So, let's taco 'bout this place! I dove into the Chili Shrimp and Mexican Corn Tacos, while my buddy tackled the Birria Bowl. The shrimp had some killer flavors, especially after I added a squirt of salsa verde for that extra kick. Only gripe? Wish they offered singles so I could mix it up. And those tortillas? Super tasty, but man, double 'em up next time to avoid the messy "blowout" situation. He loved the Birra Bowl. Super filling and satisfying. I also like that they have Margaritas, a nice surprise.Now, onto service: These guys were the real MVPs. Despite the fast-casual setup, they kept tables clean and were all over the dining area like pros.Vibe-wise? Cool as a cucumber. Digging the décor and that sunny corner spot, even on a gloomy day. Great place to chill and chow down.They have one in Stamford, where I have a client, so I will give that location a try as well.Date of Visit: 20 March 2024“

“This gem of a restaurant has earned its place as my all-time favorite Mexican spot in NYC. Not only does it serve up some of the most delicious and authentic Mexican cuisine I've had the pleasure of tasting, but it also pairs this culinary excellence with truly outstanding service. The ambiance strikes a perfect balance between welcoming familiarity and a lively, fun atmosphere that's hard to find elsewhere. Whether you're here for the exceptional food, the top-notch service, or to indulge in what might just be the perfect Margarita, its location near Van Cortlandt Park adds an extra layer of appeal. This is a must-visit for anyone looking to experience the best of Mexican dining in the city.“

“The restaurant is great, staff very friendly & helpful in food & drink suggestions. Lovely deco, clean well managed. Menu selections are extremely delicious. Saturday night DJ play music which helps the vibe & have a fun evening.“

“After an issue with a flat tire ruined our original dinner plans (hats off to the 24 hour tire repair guy on 204th Street), we were in search of a restaurant that had late night dining. A quick Yelp search yielded this place. We were not disappointed. The drinks were delicious and the quesadilla was the best I've ever had. The calamari was equally yummy as were the enchiladas. Overall it was a great meal. Our only complaint was that the live musician was good, but way too loud. We couldn't hear each other talk and I hadn't seen my nephew in months so has hoped to catch up. One area of improvement is to provide share plates with appetizers not sure why we had to eat our calamari without them. I didn't feel like ruining the vibe by asking twice.“

“My daughter and I were at the Montefiore Children's Hospital where my 2 year old grandson was hospitalized for pneumonia. We were exhausted and hungry in the evening and ordered two taco salads for take out that were delivered to the hospital. We are both vegetarian. We really enjoyed the salad. The ingredients were fresh and delicious. It was wonderful comfort food of very high quality. We highly recommend Rancho Estrrella 2“
