Mexican Restaurants near Shrewsbury

“If I could give this zero stars I would. Absolutely HORRIFIC. The burrito my husband got tasted like literal chemicals. I tasted 1 black bean and it tasted like it was melted in burnt plastic. It literally could taste it for an hour in my mouth. He was dry heaving in the parking lot after 3 bites. He also was never greeted after 5 minutes of him standing there. I asked for a refund, not to make another toxic chemical burrito and they said they couldn’t do that. The best they can do is make him something else. I don’t want something else from your trash of an establishment. Totally unacceptable. Take my advice and go to another location.“

“I ordered the M’s Fried Chicken Sandwich Deluxe with fries, the Mac & Greens, the Brookie Killer Brownie, and the Lemon Chess Pie from Streetbird in Ocean Twp.
The fried chicken sandwich and fries were delicious—hot and fresh, and not salty like other places. The Mac & Greens were just okay, and while the desserts weren’t for us, they were simply a little too sweet for our taste.
A special shout-out to the young lady at the counter, who was friendly, patient, and extremely helpful in guiding me through the iPad ordering process.
One suggestion: the Wonder app on my phone was a bit confusing because it included restaurants that aren’t actually located inside the Wonder food hall.
Overall, it was a very good experience, and I’ll definitely be back to try more menu items.“

“I really love that we can choose our own ingredients to customize the meal. I went with chicken, rice, and beans, and it was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and satisfying.
My whole family enjoyed it, and the portions were generous. My daughter especially loved the guacamole and chips, which were perfectly seasoned and fresh. Overall, it was a great experience.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Had an amazing experience at Oaxaca by the Sea! The food was absolutely delicious and everything we ordered 🤤.

We got the Oaxaca Platter, Molcajete, and extra tortillas, and honestly—everything was amazing. The platter was really good, full of flavor, and the tortillas were fresh, which made a huge difference. You can tell they care about quality.

On top of that, the service was great—friendly, attentive, and welcoming from start to finish.

Great customer service, great food, and a great overall vibe. We will definitely be back soon!“

“I’ve been about 5 times so far and LOVE Emelio’s! The food is fresh and delicious and the portions generous. Even their simple side salad is something special - delicious, light dressing. And the service is great, which is hard to come by these days. It’s clearly a family-run place where Everyone cares about the quality. Also impeccably clean!“

“Not flashy, simple, deli kind of set up. almost hole in the wall. My first impression was....ummm..naa..but since my wife picked up the place, I kind of kept quiet and was willing to try it. Boy was I wrong!! This place turned out to be AMAZING. Probably one of the best Mexican food we have had. Ask for a burrito with BBQ sauce inside it.“

“We love Tino’s Mexican Kitchen. The food and ambience are amazing.“

“If your summer body goal is ‘absolute unit,’ this is the spot. The tortas don’t just go crazy… they personally escort you into a food coma. I came here hungry and left built like a refrigerator. Definitely a dangerous place for all my fellow big backs“

“Tried this place for the first time and we loved everything! The flavors were perfect, we love spice and we were able to incorporate as much or little as we wanted with the side of habanero sauce. The vegetarian options are also incredible. My only wish was that I was able to fit more food in my stomach and I could have gotten dessert. Highly recommend!!“

“I tried it for the first time yesterday and the food was great. Had the s’mores donut and cookie ice cream sandwich. Asked Grace at the register questions and she replied with detailed description, was very helpful and friendly. They also provide a punch card for the visits for a reward and offer Monmouth University students a discount. Good cuisine and amazing customer service. Definitely would come again and try more options :)“

“My only issue was the ordering. First, when I sign into the app it keeps on sending me a link to click to get back into the app, which is annoying. Second, I clicked through online based on a coupon and started ordering, but when I signed in the promo disappeared and I had to keep logging out and in to get it. The app needs to be improved.“

“The food is consistent. And DELICIOUS. I’ve tried many Mexican restaurants as it’s my favorite. And this is my go to. Slow-er on the service but that’s due to how incredibly busy they are with take out orders alone. It’s family owned and run. They are so nice and I can’t speak enough about how authentic the food is.“

“wonderful food and awesome portions and service!“

“We went to El Rancho last month and it was absolutely delicious. The guacamole was very fresh and creamy. We also ordered the steak chimichanga and steak tostadas. Highly recommend. We will be back for sure 😊“

“Excellent food kindly very traditional food as if I were at home God bless your staff and business [Original] Excelente comida el personal amablemente comida muy tradicional como si estuviera en casa Dios le bendiga su personal y negocio“

“Juanito's is one of my favorite restaurants when getting Mexican food. Always a good meal. Unfortunately, they add an additional 4% to your bill when paying by credit card. It hurts me to start trying other Mexican restaurants in the area, as there are several, but I will start doing this as I view this fee as an additional tax. I'm taxed enough. Several restaurants in the area started to sneak in these fees. If everyone committed to avoiding these restaurants, you would see the fees go away.“

“The food is always fresh and very friendly . Great food and attitude Highly recommend“

“Best authentic Mexican food in all of NJ! Lucky to have stumbled in their doorway... Everything is deliciously made and fresh.“

“horrible experience & poor food quality. we ordered $90 of food tonight. first when trying to order i asked about the birria tacos in their Facebook post. the woman who answered told me that they dont call them birria tacos, they are called barbacoa. they required us to order from uber eats even though they advertise in town delivery. so we did. the tortillas with green sauce is rico's version of a chalupa. it was inedible. we ordered a steak chimichanga - it was very fatty. the quesadilla was delivered in the form of a taco. somehow an order for nachos we put in uber eats, was deleted. when we called to let them know somethings were not correct in the order and we were really dissapointed we were told this is not taco bell. at the end of the unhelpful conversation about their poor service and food quality, the final response was, "You got everything you deserved." very unprofessional. all around a bad experience. the food was not good. we love to support local businesses but will not be back to Rico Taco Mex 2.“

“Authentic is the exact word for this place! Not one place comes close to this!“

“Disfrutamos de ricos platillos Mexicanos, Todo estuvo muy delicioso!“

“Wide array of customizable tacos, burritos, bowls. Really nice touch in the offering of water and various hot sauces, salsas, and pico de gallo to the side. Carne asada taco was flavorful and ample for the price point. Fabulous decor with on-theme light fixtures.“

“We ordered catering for our son’s graduation party yesterday. It was perfection. Everything was delicious, exactly as ordered, well organized and ready to be served/put in sternos to keep warm. All the guests raved about it, and we have leftovers for today! The pricing was also extremely economical! Yum!!!“
