8 Best Mexican Restaurants near Lafayette

“healthy, great tasting food. I've been ordering weekly for about 2 months. Great selection to choose from and with different sizes to satisfy everyone. Price point is spot on given the high quality ingredients.“

“We discovered this delightful gem completely by accident while traveling through Syracuse. The atmosphere is phenomenal with bright colors, a rustic feel, while feeling metropolitan. They had plenty of seating both inside and outside and the service was fantastic. The food was EXCELLENT and well worth the price. The menu was very diverse and lengthy. They had a beautiful bar area and wonderful drink selection.“

“Excellent food. Meats and sauces are so flavorful and delicious. Even the rice and beans have a little something extra. Dishes are well portioned and fresh made. Tortilla chips and homemade sauce are perfect starters. The flan and ice cream are excellent ways to end the meal. Can’t wait till next time to try the specials!“

“We had Ponchito's Taqueria cater our son's graduation party on a Sunday — even though they are normally closed — and they went above and beyond to accommodate us. The food was incredible — hot, fresh, and absolutely delicious. EVERYONE at the party raved about it, and there wasn’t a single taco left from the taco bar! Their team was friendly, helpful, and made the entire experience seamless. Thank you so much for your kindness, your amazing food, and for making this day extra special. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

“It was fantastic as always!“

“Slightly star struck 🤩 as we just met the woman behind ElleRae’s Tacos. My family loves the quesadillas and the tacos—which bring us straight back to the San Francisco Yay Areaaaa when we dig in! (Great food and great service: everyone we’ve dealt with here has been wonderful, and tonight I misread the sign and only later realized it’s ElleRae, like “El Rey,” rather than Ellarae, but the owner was very gracious about my mispronunciation.)“

“Great hidden gem in Tipp Hill! Check the bar’s Instagram page first, the menu changes a bit from time to time… but that’s what I like! Always spotting different things to try, Dennis is great. Very nice, hard working, and always cares about his customers. Steves is on my short list of places to get great food in Syracuse.“
