13 Best Mexican Restaurants in Pahrump

“Best Mexican food the taste is authentic. I highly recommend Romero’s Mexican Restaurant and Bar Margaritas are great! Thank you For your service“

“After the Death Valley National park hikes day, this was the restaurant to eat well and eat full. I was hungry as a wolf and was worried I will still be… not after the “Bistec ala mexicana” (grilled chopped steak with onions, tomato and pasillo pepper). The portions were beyond generous, kids even had their halves not finished.“

“Best Mexican in Pahrump by far.“

“Got tacos here twice. While at the bar next door. Order your food. They bring it to you. Best I've had so far on my travels. 9$ 3 loaded steak tacos. Made right. Its in a small stipend mall. A little odd for where I live. But give it a try. Excellent.“

“I usually eat here often and most of the time is not that bad but this time I thought i was really expensive but we eneded still getting the order we placed over the phone, once my husband arrived he also thought it was to expensive and asked for a recipe but was told they cant give him one because it was placed thru the phone witch it doesnt make any sense when he paid at the moment and they place the prices there in the moment to change !! You should always be able to give a recipe it just makes it seen like they can charge you any price because this is what I bought and paid 51“

“They really need to find the new cook since their old one quit. They are advertising to hire one. Today eggs were burnt, hash browns like charcoal. Was horrible“

“Worst chicken quesadilla I've ever had. Carne asada fries slap though. I've eaten here many times and have had some good dishes-that's why it's a four star thing. Really, don't order the chicken quesadilla- it's pretty gross.“

“If you are on a trip from Las Vegas to Death Valley or backwards and you get hungry, you have to visit Tina's Tamales. Great mexican food for an affordable price. Very familiar and friendly. I promise that you will get saturated and indulged by the good food.“

“Just ate here on Sunday. Delicious Mexican food, authentic, not just burritos with beans and rice. Shrimp cocktail good, sauce a little thin. Crispy tacos, Good tostadas. Will go again to try other things. A little pricey and restaurant is noisy.“

“I saw the other reviews on here and honestly, they don’t match my experience at all. I'm currently traveling and camping nearby, and I stopped at this gas station to fuel up. I noticed a little shop inside and decided to check out the menu. The breakfast burritos caught my eye, so I ordered the steak and egg one.
It took about 10 minutes to make, and when I got back to my car and took that first bite, wow. It was seriously delicious. The burrito was packed with carne asada seasoned steak, fluffy eggs, and melty cheese. It really hit the spot and kept me full and satisfied all the way until dinner.“

“I was at the newly opened Chipotle in Pahrump on Jan 11th. I had never experienced a Chipotle Grill before. The employees were very helpful and the food was great. I will be back very soon. Thank You“

“I pick up the food and looking for door dash usually the atmosphere is very wonderful and sometimes the people working behind the desk get a little busy but as far as the food and the service they usually have my order ready to go when I go pick it up to deliver but some of them younger people are kind of irritated I would say but other than that they do good job“
