50 Best Mexican Restaurants in Las Cruces

“Had breakfast and was really good.“

“Great Food 😋💯 Wonderful environment.“

“Very Disappointed – While the food was decent, the experience was ruined by overhearing staff refer to me as “it” and then say, “oh my god, it’s a grandma.” Extremely unprofessional and disrespectful each time we go. Management either participates or is oblivious.“

“Amazing food. A must try spot! The enchiladas, tacos, pooled, chips, salsa, and breakfast are amazing!“

“Possibly one of the best chile rellenos I’ve ever had. The monster margarita was $13 and well worth it however, when I originally asked her how much it was, she quoted me $10. Great service and I had an awesome server. I thought the refried beans had an odd texture to it though. I was sitting in the bar area. I’ve never heard of a restaurant charging you $1 for a side of flour tortillas The dining area lights were a little harsh. Also, if you pay with a credit card you get charged a little bit more. I know I’m splitting hairs here. I would give it an 8.5.“

“First time being here and we loved it. Good portion of tostadas and salsas. Although, I didn’t like the green one as I’m not a big fan of tomatillos but the “avocado” salsa (not sure if it’s made with avocado or not) was wonderful. I ordered 2 asada, 1 barbacoa and 1 tripitas tacos. I like that you can order a variety of tacos in the order. My husband loved his tripitas tacos too and he said the limonada was excellent. Service was excellent and our server was very polite. We really hope this local restaurant keeps going because it can potentially become one of our favorites. I want to go back to try the lengua tacos since they were all out today. Highly recommend it!!!! 👍🏽“

“Our most favorite. Always fresh, hot & delicious.“

“Came here for brunch. The food was good. I ordered the Eggs Benedict with Brisket w/ Red and Green Chile hollandaise sauce. So good! My husband ordered the breakfast burrito with brisket and he said that was amazing as well. Service was really slow. Took us almost 2hrs from waiting for a seat to us leaving.“

“We stopped at Los Mariachis as we were hungry and it was rated a 4! Not sure why it wasn’t a five!🤷🏼 It’s truly a five star restaurant!!!The service was fast. Yvonne was a great waitress and we were a group of 14! She didn’t write down our selections and brought us everything we asked for! No mistakes! She a pro so ask for her! The food was hot and generous and authentic. Don’t pass this place up! Quaint and so good! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“All their food is fresh no can junk all fresh stuff they're tortillas are freshly made they're corn tortillas and their tortilla chips all made fresh in the factory and restaurant there. If you like fresh Mexican food made homemade with all natural ingredients good serving sizes this is the place to go. If you like Burger times rolled tacos you have to go here they make them just like them actually a little bit better they're excellent and like I said so is everything else you must try it“

“If you haven't tried the new birria burger, you're missing out. It's delicious!“

“Great Food and Customer service!“

“We were in town from 100 miles away for a dr appt. One of the techs at the facility highly recommended this place…His sister owns it! Everything he said about it is true. Food is great, people kind and accommodating, atmosphere is upbeat and comfortable. The portions were l large which provided lunch for us the next day! The only negative point I would make is that the bathroom door needs work. Great experience overall. Will recommend and return.“

“The food was exemplary. I think they need more staff. Overall, I'll come back again!“

We had a chicken fajita quesadilla and flautas, great flavors and good quality ingredients. Our server was helpful and kept our drinks and chips full which is rare, thank you. Love the vibe, tasty food, definitely coming back soon.“

“Comida muy rica, excelente atención, buenos precios y bien servido. 100% recomendado.“

“So good! Taco platter with 1 dozen tacos. You will not be disappointed!

Update May 9 2026:
We ordered large trays for a Mother's Day dinner. We ordered the tacos, gorditas, flautas and also chips and salsa. Everything was amazing once again! The shredded beef is my favorite. We will be back!“

“No loud proofing so it is very loud. Could hardly hear the person next to me at the table plus couldn't hear the wait staff person across the table. Contruction makes it difficultto get in & out. There's always room for improvement!“

“The salsa is very watery and tastes more of tomatoes than any kind of spice, but if you eat enough of it the spice does build. We had the shredded beef torta and a combo plate with the steak, chile relleno, and enchilada. The torta was amazing. The grilled onions on it really boosted the flavor profile. The fries were hot and crisp but nothing special. The steak was chewy but seasoned well. The chile relleno was soggy and lacked anything of note. The enchiladas was cheese and though basic, really hit the spot. Beans and rice were standard fare, but is exactly how you want it to taste. The guacamole it came with had cilantro, onion and tomato in it and was very enjoyable after salting to my taste. All in all, the food is not outstanding but is good overall. The atmosphere is basic, but inviting if a bit dated, but the service is where this place truly shines. One waitress and she handled every customer quickly and efficiently while being friendly but not overbearing. She would check on you without making it feel like you were being rushed or a bother. I am definitely coming back here for the service alone.
I’m looking forward to trying out the menudo a close by table was praising quite loudly and maybe some of their seafood dishes as well.“

“Ordered from doordash food showed up still super hot and absolutely delicious very authentic flavors from the chicken tacos beans and rice as well as guac was amazing 10/10 will try again and would recommend even over some of the more popular restraunts here i see other reviews all the problems are that it has some small business issues and people aren't being just absolutely catered to so get over that accept it's a small business with goals,great food and just enjoy“
