13 Best Mexican Restaurants near Sparta

“First off, my wife and I both love Mexican food. Enchiladas were very good. The waitstaff is very friendly and attentive. Somebody spent a lot of time on the murals and decorations. Only drawback is that they don't have a liquor license.“

“It's always fresh great food however the last few time I have been there the steak is super salty. To the point I feel swollen after I eat it. Please change it back to the way it was, or marinate it with less salt. People should add their own “

“This place is amazing! I don’t think I’ve had better service anywhere else. It took maybe 5-10 minutes for our food to come out and it was beyond delicious! The birria tacos, margaritas, and fresh made guacamole was the best I’ve had. We were beyond pleased with our server who went above and beyond! The outdoor seating and atmosphere was very pleasant as well. We will be returning soon!“

“I was super impressed by the steak fajitas. The steak that was prepared was excellent quality, cooked perfectly medium-rare as requested. I feel like usually lower-quality steak is used for fajitas at your typical LatAm restaurant, so I was pleasantly surprised when I received a high-quality steak that could’ve been it’s own entree as the meat for my fajita. The cocktails were also fantastic! We had a paloma, a batanga, and a mojito. And the service was perfect as well.“

“This place has charm and the very welcoming lady and gentleman that might be the owners made it even better. The food was tasty and the prices were fair for the amount of food you get. Would totally come back. And their ají de árbol is delicious. Always a joy to try and support the local restaurants. Totally recommend.“

“The chips and salsa were delicious, chicken fajitas and the birria tacos were amazing although I wish there were more than 3 tacos in an order since they are now my new favorite! The employees were kind and attentive. The music was a little loud and the drinks were a little pricey but overall I'm very satisfied!“

“This speakeasy Mexican Restro bar is a true delight, offering impeccable and swift service, a charming ambiance that sets the mood just right, and margaritas that are simply top-notch. A perfect spot for those seeking a memorable experience with fantastic drinks and a touch of mystery!“

“This local tavern seems to have transformed itself during the pandemic! The food is amazing! I was surprised at the prices however. We intended to stop in for a few beers and burgers, it was not a special night out but it wound up costing as much as if it were. The noise levels tend to get pretty high in the bar, so you may prefer to sit in the back dining area. Go and support locally owned establishments!“

“I've been to several Mexican restaurants in my time and Riviera Maya has to be one of, if not the best, I've ever been to. From the fresh guacamole, made right in front of you and several of their dishes, was just off the charts. Great service and ambience.“

“Little gem that you'd easily walk by thinking it's nothing special. Its special. The food is nothing short of authentic family style and the forward flavors aren't your Americanized mexican food. If like food from Mexico you need to try this place, if you like texmex or Americanized come here knowing it'll be a different experience.“

“Great food and drinks with exceptional service. This is an authentic Mexican restaurant that serves real Mexican food rather than bland Tex-Mex. I love this place and have never had a bad dish. Friendly, family run, spotless, and a gem in Lake Hopatcong.“

“First thing I noticed is how clean the place was. The place is not too big, but has plenty of seats and tables for you to sit at. Secondly the staff are super nice and welcoming. The food taste really good as well as is fresh. Overall I would say it's a good place to eat at with healthy options.“

“this was my first time at lola’s. i got the birria tacos with rice. the tacos are really yummy, and the rice is too. only thing — it is NOT cheap. i spent $23 on birria tacos and a jarritos. was it delicious? yes. affordable? not so much, esp for a food court food place.“
