50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Locust Valley

“Quaint little 8 table restaurant serving up some sizable and authentic mexican dishes. Doesn’t hurt it also offers a beautiful beach front view of Long Island sound.The cocktails are prepared well, appetizers fresh and if I must say, the carne asada is mind blowing good.I’ve been coming here for few years now and the friendly atmosphere makes it all worth while.It’s a bit out of the way, but trust me, they’re worth the trip.“

“Found this restaurant by accident on Friday and we love it! In fact, we went back Saturday for Churros and Sunday for dinner again. On Friday we had their Street Tacos and today we had their Tako Bowls! This may be a small place, but their flavors are not!! Amazing food and great portions! The entire staff from front and back of house are very friendly. So glad we found them and looking forward to going back! We HIGHLY recommend them!“

“Fish tacos and baby corn is yummy 😋“

“Very nice inviting decor. Service was just ok. The server was basic, didn’t tell us it was happy hour? Nor did she mention and food selections. For a new establishment I guess I was expecting a bit more … maybe ask if we had been there before? Check back to see how our food was( it was outstanding), we got more help from the water girl Had to ask to clear table. Had to ask for check from the water girl? The server had much support. Seems she took our order and disappeared. But the server assistants were on point. Dinner was really good. We will go back… because of the food. Even the manager walked pasted us a dozen times. There were 6 tables.. perfect time for manager to mingle… just saying. Place is very nice, great menu too. Just left feeling ignored. Nice music too. Maybe the server was having a bad day? Like I said we will go again !!! Great food.“

“Booked our wedding reception here at the guac shop. We wanted something small, low-key and hassle free for our big day and our brother stumbled upon their party room! We received an informative tour and we’re able to book our date and time easily! The staff was knowledgeable, friendly, and so helpful!! The day of, they made it really easy for our florist and wedding planner to set up and the space complimented the celebration in an unexpectedly beautiful way (especially their preexisting floral wall piece)!! The food was hot and ready for us and the party attendant was so friendly, helpful, attentive and just so much fun to have celebrate along with us and serve our dear guests!! We are still getting compliments on the food and our guests have said they want to return just to eat casually! Highly recommend if you’re looking to host a celebration with great food in a great atmosphere!“

“Excellent service! Welcoming, clean, nice vibe and atmosphere! I will definitely return plenty more times!!!“

“This place was great I tried it today and i had no complaints what so ever, I’ve read the reviews and honestly i think it’s the customers who last out on the resturant for not telling the resturant how they want it because the service here is amazing from the cooks down to the front desk workers, when i requested a specific order to be chosen to my liking they went through with it. I would recommend this again and again, Amazing resturant“

“Had amazing cinco de Mayo!! Thanks for the t shirts ! Great service great food best drinks and beyond great dessert.“

“Easily one of the best Mexican spots in Westchester. We brought the kids and they couldn’t get enough of the tacos, pupusas, and tamales. Everything tasted fresh and homemade. The food is super flavorful and authentic, and the whole place has a friendly, laid-back vibe. Great for families or anyone looking for a solid Mexican spot. We’ll definitely be back.“

“Great Food, exceptional service and margaritas to die for! Our group of four has been dying to find a good Mexican restaurant (we have tried many)and 5 De Mayo did not disappoint. From our server, to our "Guacamole Girl" to the owner Roberto who came to our table to check in and offer dessert and/or a shot (free of charge), we could not have found a better hidden gem. We will not have to try another Mexican Restaurant as long as 5 De Mayo is around!“

“Every time I'm in the area I make sure to stop by Mangoes. The staff is super friendly, atmosphere is spot on, and the food is delicious. Portions are huge. This time we got fresh guac made tableside, piña coladas, jambalaya, and a combination plate. Everything was was excellent and I'm looking forward to my next visit.“

“Best chicken burrito EVER! The cheese is melted on the outside of the tortilla and is absolutely amazing! And the price is very fair! I can't wait to go back!“

“Excellent meal and wait staff“

“Anytime I've ordered take out from this place its been fresh and delicious and usually always ready by the time i get there. I must say I haven't been too crazy about eating in there cause there service really isn't the best. Waiter/Waitresses don't really have any personality and my waiter tried to charge me extra for rice and beans that was suppose to automatically come with the shrimp dish i usually get from there. Besides the dining in aspect, I will return for take out cause I do enjoy the food.“

“When is the most beautiful places I eat at me and my aunt went there is Lily had a great lunch ain't got left over for today and had a nice drink she had a beer and like I said the portions were nice and fresh and good you cannot get a better meal for 30 bucks in your life like I said these big chain restaurants that is exactly how they cook and change one meal after another that is microwave and hand it to you they cook it for you fresh in your face while you wait beautiful view a shout out to Lourdes and and her daughters for running a comfortable beautiful place amen“

“Just had the best tasting Steak and frozen Frozen Margarita . The staff is always going out of their way for you. Food always great never had a bad meal ever and reasonable priced.“

“I had an amazing experience at Azteca Deli! Their food is incredibly delicious, and the tacos are absolutely amazing. The staff was friendly and welcoming, making the whole visit even better. The atmosphere felt cozy and casual, perfect for enjoying a relaxed meal. I 100% recommend coming here if you want a tasty, satisfying meal that hits all the right spots!“

“what a nice place. went here for lunch with the family. great food, wonderful service, pet friendly. we ate outside under a shade. ribs were delicious, pulled pork, salad, and brisket. definitely a recommendation. can't wait to go again.“

“They had a nice Happy Hour and the Bartender was nice and helpful. Small friendly bar. I was disappointed I had to download an app to preview the menu so I had to go in. The Happy Hour was reasonable and the empanadas and Tacos were delicious.

Parking: I think it's free street parking. May have to park on a side street.“

“I came here on taco tuesday. The tacos were fresh, had plenty of meat, and were 2.50 each. In addition they provided plenty of lime, onions, cucumber, and sauces on the side, for the tacos, which I liked because I didn't have to ask for more lime or green sauce. The service was also great.“

“The lady at the register was very nice, quick to take my order and it came out hot and with two different sauces. When you pay cash it cheaper than with card payment. Big steak tacos with lots of meat. The green sauce is hot and you get radishes and cucumbers pieces with your meal.“

“Ellos son muy amable y lo trata de lo mejor se los recomiendo“

“Great margaritas! Frozen!“

“The service and atmosphere is amazing me and my family go almost every Sunday and the food does not disappoint. I would totally recommend this to a friend or family member and I would say that the only thing that I would change is the cleanliness because the floor is quite dirty, but the kitchen looks clean and organized“

“Good to go anytime. Fast fresh and the way you want it.“

“Food is exceptional and service is friendly and quick. A remarkable experience !“

“Great place to get some Mexican food, staff were much nicer than what you'd find in Chipotle, and the dine-in area was quite well-kempt. My only criticism is the spicy chicken which makes water taste sweet for at least 24 hours, but still delicious.“

“My two favorite things in the menu are the hand made quesadillas and the Birria ramen. I love the face that these are freshly made to order so steak is juicy and very very tasty best quesadillas and tacos in port Chester for sure. I TOTALLY RECOMMEND“

“Okay, so idk how this place doesn't have more awesome reviews, but I LOVE Juarez. I've gone there twice and order from ubereats a lot. I typically get their steak nachos and quesadillas. They do not skimp you on anything. Even with delivery, the amount of food they give you is insane. If you ask for anything extra they have no issue giving it to you. Everything always tastes good and their options are fire. Whenever I go to a place that looks like a small hole-in-the-wall restaurant, I know the food is going to be good-- but this place was better. Highly recommend this place if you wanna eat awesome Mexican food that never ends.“
