50 Best Mexican Restaurants near College Point

“Súper riquísimo todo y el ambiente laboral muy bien“

“This cool place makes me feel I’m in El Salvador. The music they play overhead, the strong ac as it’s hot and humid outside, the ambience inside, the wide mirror, green color walls, clean wooden benches lining the walls, and their authentic delicious puspusa is excellent. My husband and I just love this place. The guy who served our meal is sensitive or understands that we needed 2 spoons for the soup. Overall, I recommend to try this place and I give 5 stars for making me so welcome and cool and rested. The price is also reasonable.“

“Whewwwwweee did I enjoy myself!

First of all, it's gorgeous, so sunshine-y and green. We sat at the bar and the service was great. We ordered the cantaloupe slushies and they were so, so good! They weren't overly strong + they mix them themselves, just a few ingredients. The guac was a little small but delicious. The pork tacos were pretty expensive for 2, I thought, until I tasted them. WOW, so good. We were so busy catching up, we didn't realize they'd closed to get ready for dinner. They emphasized we hadn't overstayed our welcome, we could stay as long as we needed.
And the disco-themed restroom + playlist? Excellente“

“Food was pretty good only had the pork t taco, shrimp taco and frozen Mojito. The drinks were strong and delicious. The shrimp taco was soo good The pork taco lacked flavor. The ambiance is cool.btje bright walls give it a festive vibe however during the summer there isn't much difference between inside or outside seating. By the time we left our table from inside, our clothes were sticking to our bodies. It's a sauna that with fans that blow hot air with a one working bathroom. Other than that I was satisfied.“

“Delicioso. Gente amistosa.“

“Small but fresh menu made it perfect for making decisions and also means the food SHOULD be great across the board and they did not let us down.

Calm atmosphere was perfect for intimate gatherings and a focus attention on your party.

The chips and salsa was a great way to start opening the pallet to different flavors paired with
The Amarillos aguachiles which was light, sweet, and refreshing

Tostada de atun was mouth watering, fresh, flavorful and my personal favorite of the night but a tough 2nd pick was the branzino we order which comes with a nice pineapple salsa. The fish was cooked perfectly and also so fresh.

Everything here is fresh and packed with flavor, perfect for hot summer night, light dinners, or parties with friends.“

“Stumbled across Chavela's totally on accident(thanks maps for taking me to the wrong place.) The food, the drinks, the service, all so amazing. Our server, I think her name was Mary, was amazing and friendly. I can't wait to come back!!!“

“It the best Mexican food I ever eat.“

“ABSOLUTELY AMAZING ALL AROUND!!!
Such incredible food and drinks. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. The Pozole was amazing. We sat at the kitchen bar and watching the chefs execute each dish was absolute food porn. RECOMMEND!!!!!“

“I am in awe how absolutely incredible the shrimp tacos were. When I was checking out at the restaurant I got a bit of sticker shock on how expensive it was, however it was well worth it. 100% recommend. Fast service and cute neighborhood vibe.“

“everything was delicious, atmosphere was fantastic, service was great. Highly recommended!“

“Let me emphasize this, NOBODY and I do mean NOBODY, makes a delicious bowl the way Tacobees do. I live far and order with extra charges through Ubereats because it’s just that good and worth every penny. I get burritos the size of a tiny baby. I should know because I’ve had tiny humans before and those burritos are at least 2lbs or more lol.

The way the burritos and bowls are made, is just so good. They don’t skimp out on anything. It’ll be full to the absolute brim. Their queso and guac is hands down the best out of all other chains (Chipotle, Moe’s and Qdoba.) The steak and honey chicken is just chefs kiss. I love how my delivery is also always warm and the most important part, correct. They just get me and can take my check any weekend!“

“My first time eating here! The horchata is the best I've ever had! I’m now able to differentiate between authentic Horchata and mid horchata thanks to this restaurant! This is a small restaurant but so festive and beautiful! They cooked the food with love. Me and my wife had the Birria Pizza. The meat was cooked well and the pizza stood in tact.“

“I like their food and service.
A group of young men putting the work. The place is nice and clean, their food is very good. Those guys really tried. I used to order online, today I decided to walk in eventhough it took them a lil time to have my order ready once served I was very pleased with the food. 10 out of 10z.

Athmosphere, could be a little better.“

“Taqueria Tlaxcalli is absolutely delicious!“

“Nice causal place for a date. Nice music, great Hospitality and Healthy food!“

“Such an incredible experience . Tasting menu was amazing !“

“Playa Betty's has great tasting tacos and the staff and atmosphere is awesome! ❣️ frm:🇯🇵🇺🇸“

“I had the pizza birria it was delicious ?. The service too & everything is made in front of you fresh love the salsa station. This is no restaurant is more like a Mexican Bodega with a Flat Top. Quick Tip Get Some Mexican Paletas ( Ice Cream )“

“An Absolute Gem in Astoria!
While visiting New York, I was introduced to MAYAHUEL in Astoria—and let me just say, it’s hands down the best Mexican restaurant I’ve had in a very long time. We sat outside and enjoyed an unforgettable dinner in a cozy, welcoming setting.

The queso fundido with chorizo and the guacamole with chips were beyond amazing—some of the best I’ve ever tasted. Then came the Enchiladas Suizas, and wow… the salsa verde was truly next level. Every dish was bursting with authentic flavor and made with care.

This spot is a must-visit for anyone craving outstanding Mexican cuisine. I’ll be recommending MAYAHUEL to everyone—and I absolutely can’t wait to return! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“Every time I show up, the employees suggest the best food available, they are generous always. If the container is empty, they walk to the kitchen to refill for fresh food.
They have good attitude.
The food is always on point, it’s hard to find the right place to dine for less than $20 dollars.
Adobo - M G is a great place for take out and family.“

“The best tacos that you can eat is in this place! The real authentic mexican food ?? You can watch all your sports games, of course those from Mexico too!
The owner is super helpful and always makes sure you have a good time ?
Definitely it could be one of your favorite places??“

“Had the pleasure of dining here over the weekend. Lets start with the ambiance, perfectly lit warm and inviting. The service was impeccable from the host to our server everyone knowledgeable, friendly and engaging. Now to the food, arguably some of the best Oaxacan cuisine I have tasted outside of Mexico. The crudo was so fresh and vibrant the short rib memela was one of the best dishes I have had in a very long time. Everything was fresh and tasty. Thanks to everyone who made this meal such an amazing experience. Truly looking forward to my next visit!!!“

“Honestly, if you are looking for a really amazing spot to get a halal burrito or Mexican food, Guac Time is literally the best option. I have been coming here at least once every week since I found out about this place and honestly the food is so addicting. The service is great and employees are so welcoming.“

“Comida súper autentica, deliciosa, sabrosa y los precios súper accesibles! 100% recomendado“

“Some of the best birria tacos I’ve had in Manhattan. The staff is friendly, patient, and very fast. What a wonderful place!“

“We had an amazing dinner here after stopping in to the nearby sculpture museum (also very cool). Good frozen cocktails, fantastic tacos and everyone on staff was kind, accommodating and quick! They had little hats for the kids which were so cute, and strong AC inside. Great place for a summer dinner out!“

“Exelente servicio y la comida muy rica“

“I looked up what foods in the area were top rated and this little restaurant popped up. So I went for a try. Got the steak nachos and WOW. Everything taste fresh and even the chip were crispy fresh and taste homemade. The crema, beans, steak well seasoned, guacamole all paired wonderfully and perfect portions of each. I hate getting nachos with 80% chips, 10% beans and barely any protein. This place knows exactly what they’re doing and I can’t wait to try other stuff on their menu. Also it’s a very small restaurant with limited seating. I took my food to-go and it was well packaged and hot.“

“Atmosphere was sophisticated especially compared to neighborhood Mexican restaurants. Service was attentive. But the food was disappointing. House salad was nice, with a touch of unexpected mint, but the Vegetarian Chili Rellenos with winter vegetables really missed the mark. In hindsight I should have returned it as it was warm but barely cooked. Every vegetable stuffed in the poblano chili, including the chili itself, was still crunchy (almost raw) rather than what I am sure the head chef would have intended. Also, The carrot pure sauce was a bit too heavy on the cream. I had high expectations, so was disappointed.“

“lovely hidden gem on Avenue A between 13th and 14th streets. The place is family owned and operated and the food is to do for. It is reasonably priced, I often find myself trying to figure out if I want a tamale or a shredded beef or pork taco.“

“I cannot sing the praises of this place and the staff enough! We had a long day at the museum and we were all starving and the kids were very cranky. We took forever trying to find a place that they would all find something to eat at but that place didn't work out so we came here not realizing how lucky we were. After having a quick glance at the menu I realized two of my children would probably not eat anything. Two of the ladies that work there helped us work it out to piece together a meal for them with components they already have. It took quite a while figuring everything out but they were patient and helpful. The food was outstanding and the cocktails and mocktails were phenomenal. I wish I lived closer because this would be a regular place for me. Highly recommend!“

“Super amazing what highly recommend the Ramen was my most favorite place in the churros were amazing with the caramel dip. I feel like other people should go to this place too and I feel like this is just the best restaurant I ever been in New York City.“

“Delicious, authentic, homemade food.“

“We had a great experience at Xolo! We started off with the guacamole and chips and the ahi tuna tostadas, so fresh! All of our entrees were filled with flavor and some of the BIGGEST burritos I ever seen! Margaritas are amazing too! Deff try this place out!“

“Had an awesome time. Choose them for my birthday brunch and they did not disappoint. Great food awesome atmosphere and great service. Our waitress was the “Bomb” highly recommended 🙏🏼👍🥰“

“The customer service is wonderful, from Adrián specifically, and the food is even better. It manages to maintain the authentic cuisine of Mexico and at the same time provide a touch of modernity. Plus the party music and colorful lights simply bring a great atmosphere!“

“After an impromptu evening painting trash where the clouds were quickly blowing around & each moment in the sky looked like a biblical scene, I had the fish burrito 10/10, orange & red sauces 10/10. There are 3 beta fish on a shelf in the back that need attention, their tanks to be cleaned, to be kissed.“

“💥💥💥💥💥 Just discovered a gem! Can’t wait to return. Tucked in on Columbus Av. betw 106/107. Best Mexican food I’ve yet to find in the city. I had the fish tacos! Excellente! Also the best sangria. Our server, Carol, was wonderful. And she gave me a delicious flan desert and everyone sang happy birthday. Thank you Carol and everyone! See you soon!“

“Amazing food at a good price with great portion sizes! I always get the chimichangas and I love that you get rice, beans, a salad, and a couple plantains - it's usually enough food for me to stretch it to 1.5-2 meals, even though the food is so good I want to eat it all at once.“

“I don’t understand does this place not read the instructions of their orders ? Why do you always forget to add the sauces when the instructions specifically says to put in on the side. The sauces are one of your main attractions and the only reason I order. Or else I’m better off ordering from chipotle. Please get it together I will not longer be ordering from here.“

“Love the place,love the service and the lobster tacos 🌮 were amazing.“

“The food and drinks are AMAZING! I fell in love with this place! I can’t wait to go back. (I had the best cocktail drink I have ever had in my life!) Thank you so much Artemio for your great service!“

“New favorite Mexican in the neighborhood for date night - cocktails are great, food is delicious and generous portions. Staff is nice and attentive.

My fav part is their playlist, I’ve been 3 times now and playlist is just perfection“

“Carlos, I believe his name was, he was amazing and kept the food and drinks coming!! I’ve been to a lot of different places where they offer bottomless every thing but, this is DEFINITELY the best place to go! Ask for, Carlos.. (I came up for a wedding and a birthday and I ended up have the best time ever)“

“We were *obsessed* with our experience here. The food was incredible, the drinks were creative and delicious, and the views were stunning. The outdoor area fills up fast (we came in at 6:30 on a Tuesday and it was already full) but the covered patio area was just as nice. Whoever our server was in that area was such a gem. Such a lovely guy!“

“I loved my experience here. Now I should warn you, this place has a lot of character. If you want something a little boring and sterile, this is not the place. Victor was an incredible host and the food was fantastic.
I won't forget it. Such a nice time.“
