41 Best Mexican Restaurants near Shrewsbury

“Came in yesterday afternoon to pick up a catering order and the staff were so nice! (It was just rice and beans) but they went the extra mile to make sure the food was made fresh and were very accommodating and friendly. Plus, I always get a good meal here. Thanks Bubbakoos Shrewsbury!“

“Love this place! The food is made to order, delicious and fresh. The atmosphere is casual, bright & clean. You have to try the nacho platter— it is amazing! We also love their Oaxaqueña mole. This is Mexican food at its best! And the owner is on site and a wonderful host helping with recommendations. She makes the experience even better (if that’s possible!).“

“Wow, the food was fantastic, prepared to perfection with quality fresh ingredients, the Poblano Molé was amazing, as was the lime cake for dessert, Michael who was taking care of us for dinner was attentive, personable and welcoming. Best in “

“This was an amazing experience!Thank you so much Jessica.!!!! She provided great service, amazing authentic food and had the best Mexican music playing. I will definitely be coming here all year long. Thank you so much Elray restaurant. ❤️“

“At the spur of the moment, we decided to stop for food while we're shopping out here. This is a great little spot.I had the quesa-birria tacos and my better half went for the warm chicken salad in the taco shell. We really enjoyed it. Similar to west coast style birria, but the soupita/consomme had a bit cilantro in it (I love cilantro) and not overly salty as they tend to be. Crunchy taco shell (corn option available) melted cheese and dipping that taco in the soupita, dam!Better half loved her salad and was a little upset she couldn't eat it all (nice sized portions, though not oversized). She stole the leftover soupita for the salad (she loved it too).If this sounds good and you're nearby, then this may be a place for you to check out. Love spreading the word on good little spots.“

“This morning I went in after my workout to get a breakfast burrito and WOW was it fantastic. The hot sauce is hot and delicious! The burrito had some great spices and I loved it! I will definitely be back. Was filling as well!Cost after tax: $15.80“

“Yo. I am writing this review the morning after having a Luna Verde FEAST. (It was the first thing I thought about this morning.)The food was so delicious! Thoughtfully prepared, beautiful(!), and such generous portions.There’s a quesadilla in my fridge that has caused some arguments as to who will consume, but such is expected when dealing with delicious leftovers.So, so good.“

“This place is a gem. Wonderful, fresh food that tasted homemade and was presented beautifully. We stopped in on our way out of town, just looking for a bite, and we felt so fortunate to happen upon this place. We ordered a chicken torta and a burrito, and both were excellent. The woman who served us was kind and welcoming.“

“Had dinner here Saturday night. Don't know why it wasn't busier as the food was excellent! We had fajitas and tacos and loved every bite! So much food for not a high price. Neither of us was able to finish our dinner as they give you so much food. The only complaint I had, which might have been corrected if I asked, was they only gave 3 tortilla shells with the fajitas. Will definitely be back when in the area.“

“Best dinner, drinks and dessert! The food was amazing. We were a party of four and ordered multiple dishes to try. Everything we had was delish! The tostadas, lamb, duck and ceviche were all on point and delicious. The dessert special with yuca and pistachio ice cream was spectacular. The Tequilla Cream was a great drink to top off dessert. The whole table got one and love it!“

“The birria tacos are incredible. This might be a weird comparison, but the meat reminds me of my mom’s pot roast with Mexican flavors. It comes with a yummy “au jus” that just makes it melt in your mouth. The rice and beans, as well as the guacamole and fresh chips, round out a perfect meal. The prices can’t be beat for the quality. I want to try other items on the menu, but have not been able to stray from the birria tacos just yet.“

“Wonderful family run restaurant. The food was delicious. We started with guacamole that was so flavorful. The Columbia empanadas. Yum. For entrees ceviche which was fresh, lomo de saltado, quesadilla, and burrito so good. Highly recommend if you are in the area.“

“I love this place! Really cute atmosphere if you want to eat in, but I usually order take out. Everything I've had from here has been great ?. Some of my favorites are the pulled chicken chimichangas and carnitas tacos. Today I tried the tacos al pastor... Holy Cow they were good! Everything is so fresh. They just launched online ordering, which is really nice. I might have to go back tomorrow! Try it out and let me know what you think“

“Great food and service.Was there again last night, messed up my order and I ate it before thinking about it. They offered to make the right order for me to take togo, I liked what I ate and said don't worry about. They took it off the bill and gave us a free dessert. Again great service and food.“

“Though no one was answering the phone there to see if it was open, we ventured on a Wednesday night around 630 before a show at the Count Basie. Walked in and a less than handful of folks at the small bar. No one at the tables. I had to trust the Yelp reviews. Two people seemed to be working, and I believe one was manager and chef. Menu was nice and service was attentive and friendly. The guac was very generous and very good. The entrees had a lot going on on the plate. Fish, rice, corn, salad, veggies, Brussel sprouts, asparagus. A very large serving plate. Could tell care went into the food presentation. Will definitely be back. This is a hidden gem that deserves a spotlight.“

“My wife and I were attending a comedy show across the street, and we wanted to grab a bite before the show. The ambiance is very cozy as it's a small restaurant. The service was fast and attentive. You can tell it's a mom and pop restaurant, and it was in the flavor of the food. Everything was tasty. I won't drive 90 minutes to come back, but if I'm in the area, I'll definitely come back.“

“Walked by one morning on our way to Offshore, checked out the menu, the tacos caught our attention, specifically the Baja Fish and Tulum Shrimp tacos, a couple of our favorites. Decided to come back for lunch the next day. We ordered the aforementioned tacos. Server was nice, brought our drinks fairly quickly along with some tortilla chips... but no salsa. Had to go inside and request it later. Salsa has good flavor, they have a green and red, mild to medium spice. Tacos arrived, they looked great, nice presentation... but the shrimp was seriously lacking in flavor. My wife and I have had shrimp tacos in Tulum and these weren't even close. Plus only 2 medium-sized bland shrimp in each taco. The Baja Fish taco had decent flavored sauce on it. The tortillas were not warmed or grilled or anything on either tacos.“

“I go there with Grandpa Richard all the time and let me say they definitely get to know their customers not just us but several people I noticed weather the sat and ate or got something to go they asked if we/they wanted the usual and even a guy that only had been there 2xs prior down to the extra cheese no salt medium well like WOW they're Spanish but speak and understand English well they are very caring and nice even the cook is always smiling they do have some Spanish food but a lot of American food as well nice portions always everything is cooked just right burgers are well BIG lol u won't leave hungry I don't think Spanish people know how to cook small meals and I say this with a smile on my face who knows maybe u will see my 95 yrs old grandpa there the story's that man can tell ya u can't miss him he's there every day at 7am of course if he's smiling he may not look 95 anyway great deli u won't be disappointed ?“

“The idea of being able to pick from five different types of cuisine all under one roof is so cool. Not only that, but the quality of the food itself was top-notch, Dean (the owner) is super friendly and helpful, and the prices are totally fair. I seriously can’t wait to come here again. (Their boba is phenomenal too)“

“Rico Taco is hands down the best Mexican restaurant in the area. The food is always fresh, delicious, and full of flavor. It's my favorite spot for takeout, and the service here is top-notch. If you're looking for authentic and mouthwatering Mexican cuisine, Rico Taco is the place to go.“

“This is a family run business. Everyone is warm and friendly. Service was fast and great. They offer great specials weekly. Food is cooked in less oil than you traditional Chinese restaurants. There is a restroom for customers only which is very clean. You can find parking on the right side of the building.“

“We visit Asbury nearly every weekend during the summer, and this place is our top choice for dining. I'm fairly certain I've tried every taco on their menu and haven't been let down by a single one. I've enjoyed meals both at their permanent location and their boardwalk spot; both are fantastic.“

“This is one of the best Mexican restaurants we’ve been to so far.The food, decor and people are as authentic as they can possibly be.The food is always fresh, we typically go there for an evening meal, but tried their breakfast the other day and were blown away yet again.Highly recommended if you’re craving Mexican.BYOB your own liquor of choice to mix with their tea.“

“(Translated by Google) First time here. I liked the Sopes. They were made by hand and arrived at my table hot. They were delicious.(Original)Primera vez aqui. Me gustaron los Sopes. Fueron hecho a manos y llegaron a mi mesita calientes. Estaban Ricos.“

“Have had this place multiple times. Boneless wings were very good. Usually get a burrito or bowl either Nashville hot or ghost pepper. I would suggest this place has an alternative for Qdoba Chipotle or moes. Good food is reasonably priced.“

“I've been a regular here for years now. For the most part, this has been the safest choice we make because the food rarely disappoints. I haven't been in since COVID, only getting delivery and pickup monthly to weekly. They're not perfect but it's always innocent stuff. This is a place I recommend to anyone moving to the area.“

“Been going to Mogo for years. Took a group of friends there for food after a concert and as always they didn't disappoint! Their food is fresh and very tasteful. The food is like a party in your mouth! The service was great and the place has a great vibe going on. I highly recommend Mogo!!!“

“Had dinner here last night for the first time after hearing great reviews of the place for years. We were a party of 4 couples. Tino himself kept an eye on us and made sure we were well served. Large portions, beautiful outdoor dining area, excellent service, and incredible value.“

“Goodquality Mexican food. Shrimp Diablo was quite tasty! Place was relatively busy but not hectic. Food is freshly prepared. Complimentary chips and salsa are the perfect accompaniment. Service was nice. The bakery display looked delicious. Will have to swing by for some pastries.“

“AMAZING!!! Only way to describe it from start to finish!There was a bit of an issue with the printed menu and the online menu. It appears the printed menu is a little out of date and some of the items are not on the website. Perhaps they will either update one or the other.Aside from that, there was a bit of a language barrier when ordering over the phone but nothing horrible.The food was as authentic as you can possibly get. The burritos were flavorful and big. Everything was delicious!!!I would heavily recommend this restaurant.“

“Haven't been here for awhile. The lady prefers the flautas at Taco Stop in South Amboy. I don't recommend that place. Los Corrales IS SO MUCH BETTER! Best Al Pastor I've had in NJ. The burrito is chock full of al pastor, with grilled onions/red peppers and Oaxacan Cheese.$14 included the burrito with Mexican rice and black beans and a bottle of Coke. Excellent deal.There are 3 really good Mexican Restaurants in Keyport. This one is the best of the three! Homemade tortillas ftw!“

“I’ve been going to Tropico for many years, and it has always been an incredible experience. The staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. The food is absolutely delicious with generous portions, great flavor, and fair prices. You can tell they put a lot of love and care into their dishes, making it feel like a home cooked meal every time. I have been to other authentic Mexican restaurants closer to my home, but none quite compare to Tropico. I will certainly make the drive here for their top tier quality. Thank you Tropico for many years of great food and service! This restaurant is truly valued in the community.“

“Small and family owned but i would be the first to invest in them ! They are always friendly and the prices are reasonable! I would highly recommend ordering their fresh tacos !Vegetarian options: fresh vegetables usedKid-friendliness: healthy ingredients“

“This restaurant is so delicious it’s gonna make you feel so happy and your taste buds are gonna appreciate you. Is the best Mexican food around, this restaurant is so welcoming it fills me up with joy. Thanks to Axel for explaining well the menu to me, there dishes are made with so much love. Don’t let me get started with their desserts, I got the churros and OMG they were so fresh and tasted soo good.“

“Amazing food, great choices and sauces! I could have entire meal of just their salsa, it's so good. Dining in is comfortable and take out is super convenient. Love this long time establishment. I usually get the chimichanga but there are always unique specials.“

“This place is the best authentic Mexican place I've ever been to. They are so kind and give you such a good deal for what you get. I only paid about $17.50 for a drink and my three tacos. They also give you free home made corn chips Every time you eat in. If they don't have the self serve sauces available they will give it to you in containers. I've been here with my boyfriend so many times and it never disappoints me. The food is always high quality. The pink building and colorful environment is different but very authentic. They won't even let you clean up after yourself if the owner is there.“

“This place is an incredible bang for your buck. I usually order either the nachos or the polo/bistec Mexicana and the amount of delicious food you get for the price is unrivaled in the area. I’ve been coming for years and have never been disappointed.“

“The food was amazing! For appetizers we had the empanada special and empanadas off the menu and both were delish! For dinner we had filet mignon tacos, seafood fajitas and the salmon and everyone loved their entrees!!! Dessert was churros flambé and they were to die for! Service was great, they were so nice and attentive! Will definitely be going back!“
