50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Palisades

“A fantastic coconut mojito, and fresh guacamole. Very nice staff“

“Great food. Manny is the best. Awesome service.“

“Perfect place for date night. Great atmosphere, excellent food, superb service. Exceeded expectations all the way around. 10/10“

“Omg... just got this today for the first time cuz i was in the area & i will DEF be back. Got a Honey Chipotle Chicken Bowl and it was so good.

I wish you guys had a place over here by Allerton & White Plains Road area (next to the 2 train), cuz i would be there alot.“

“Service: Gustavo man, Gustavo. This Brother gave us top tier service, Masha Allah. He was extremely patient as I was really undecided on what to order since it was authentic Mexican and he really kept our interests in mind. I kept calling him over and over again but he kept smiling and you can tell he was genuinely understanding. He greeted us with Salaam and was so courteous through our whole time there. He also checked in on us to make sure things were going good. Great customer service is something that I never overlook and this customer service I received was one of the best.

Food: And the food was so good. It came out one by one so we had stuff to eat from the moment we sat down with the tortilla chips. Had all of our food within 10 min or so which was great. We had Birria tacos, steak bowl, the special quesadilla (forgot the name as it's in Spanish but it had maiz in the name), and tortilla chips. Everything was delicious and legitimately tasted like an authentic foreign cuisine. It is not your average Mexican bowl place. Heavy props to the chef for the amazing flavors and textures of the food!

Halal: I mostly eat at HFSAA or HMS Halal certified locations. So considering they were also certified is always my first step to going to any restaurant. I wouldn't have even come if they weren't certified.

Remarks: All in all, food and service was great and I definitely recommend others to give it a try!“

“Best tacos ever . I’ve been a client since the Sombrero truck on Market St in between Checkers and post office . Then they moved to union blvd . I’ve taken my immediate family ,taken friends , when my outer states visitors come is the first place they get taken to also!! Really everything is made fresh and there’s not one dish I can pick over another !! Can’t wait to get back from Puerto Rico to get some real tacos !!! Pa alante !!!“

“Great meal - drinks extraordinary. Definitely coming back.“

“Nice atmosphere, lovely wait staff. Aesthetically pleasing presentation of wonderfully delicious food! Will definitely return to try more dishes!“

“Love this place. Victor gives personalized service along with delicious home cooked food.“

“Prince has got me hooked on their Loaded Nachos, they are hands down the best Taqueria in the area. The freshly made tortilla chips stay crispy all the way through.

The Short Rib Birria and Shrimp tacos are outstanding. Those pics didn't make it, so I'll make sure to post those for y'all to see next time. For now, check out them nachos. 😋😋😋😋😋“

“Tobala is so worth the visit! We decided to give Tobala a try and we were not disappointed. The initial entry was warm and inviting, and we were immediately seated. The ambiance was romantic and cozy and the layout was efficient and flowy.
The playlist was great, the service was excellent and the food was impeccably delicious! We almost did not want to disturb it. Everything was spot-on!
The appetizers were small , but fresh, tasty and delish! The entrees were a bit larger in portion, delicious and filling! The prices were steep, but this place serves authentic high quality foods. We were glad that we chose Tobala for our date night! We enjoyed the desserts— the bunuela and the tres leches, I preferred the center of my tres leches not be so distinctively orange-flavored.
We plan to return to Tobala, it was worth the trip!“

“Awesome food… outdoor on summer time and indoor when it’s cold. Lovevthe Spanish music while eating ❤️“

“Taco Thursday’s! Who doesn’t like a taco? Food is very fresh and best Mexican food around. Margaritas are made fresh with squeezed limes not a mix. One of my favorite places for Sunday breakfast! Everyone is very friendly and welcoming.“

“First time dining at this restaurant. The food was excellent. Service was very attentive and atmosphere great. It's always a mystery on how loud a place can be and this was perfect. The live music was a nice surprise too. I had the stuffed Shrimp wrapped in Bacon and my husband had a combo - Tostada, Enchilada and Stuffed pepper. Delicious.“

“exelente comida y sobre todo el karaoke con @cantanteonc espectacular“

“Really good Mexican restaurant. Possibly the best I’ve had in the area. The chicken quesadilla was packed with flavor, made with quality ingredients, and very filling. The homemade chips and guacamole were delicious and freshly made.

I can’t believe I waited so long to try this place. This will definitely be our regular Mexican spot from now on. Must visit.“

“Quick service, good prices, fantastic food. If I lived nearer I'd be visiting multiple times a week.“

“We love this place! I am from the Southwest and haven’t had tortillas like this in ages! We will be back! So fresh! So good!“

“Excellent food service in an unassuming area - highly recommend !“

“Muy bueno y fresco torta cubana 100“

“Had the breakfast burrito 🌯 been wanting to get to this place for a while.

Wasn’t the best I’ve ever had but it was good. The chorizo was the one I went with definitely wasn’t disappointed.

I don’t think it’s worth a far drive but if you’re in the area or it’s not completely out your way it’s definitely worth stopping in for a visit. The place does have seating but not a lot of room. There is a park near by and lots of outdoor seating near the area. That’s what I chose to do.

The breakfast burrito price was amazing especially for nyc the food was good quality and really delicious. The sauce everyone was talking about wasn’t over powering. Matter of fact I wish I had more next time I’ll ask for some on the side felt like I needed an extra pump 😂.

I truly enjoyed this place and I’m sure you guys will also the coffee was mid but it’s ok food makes up for it.

Hope you enjoyed this review like always follow me on IG @imbroke_eats and @imbroke_rob

Hope this helped“

“Working with Bro-Ritos was a very pleasant experience and we can't wait to bring them back to Rutgers-NB again! From the moment we contacted them through their website, they were professional, prompt, and friendly.We invited them for our annual Black Student Social which is a fall semester welcome program. The staff were kind and worked quickly to serve over 200 students. Our students were happy with their tacos and burritos. The owner was very accommodating and met all of our needs.Administratively, I was very impressed with Bro-Ritos. We made A LOT of requests and changes and had to work through the nuances of getting a new vendor approved, but Bro-Ritos was always responsive and on top of it. They are true team players.If you have the opportunity, you should book the Bro's!“

“Great food, great service. Have been here many times and always enjoy the food. Looking forward to the next visit!!“

“Very nice Mexican place on Union Avenue. The tacos were very tasty, my friend had a torta which looked excellent. Next time i will have that. The place is very small but the help is very accommodating to help get people in and out. The food comes quickly and is very savory.“

“exelente servicio exelente sazón muy limpio y muy bien ambiente“

“Amazing trays of 30 tacos and all veggies on the side! Plus we grabbed some Empanadas too! Today was the perfect day for us to try them since we were right at the mall! The owner was too sweet and brought us all kinds of things to try while we were waiting! The Biria was to die for and he brought us this Mexican Pizza absolutely mouthwatering! It is inside the gas station across from the Palisades! Seriously such good authentic Mexican food! He says you can even call and ask what his special is. He tries different things every week! Let's support a small local business! La Fondita Jarocha“

“The food and drinks are very good. This is the second time we went there. First time we had Rafael as a bartender. He is not friendly at all! Did not make us feel welcome. We went again today, January 2nd and said Hi to Rafael and he ignored us. And we were sitting at the bar for around 10 mintues. Rafael was there at not one word to us. Carlos another bartender came to take our drink and food menu. Carlos was great and made us feel welcome and at home. Carlos is wonderful! Management needs to address Rafael customer service. We are paying for a service. It is not free!“

“I love the food here. Everything is delicious and authentically Mexican. Excellent customer service. I highly recommend it. The guacamole is delicious, the nachos are scrumptious, and the tortas de azada are incredible. A great place to go with the family.“

“The food was absolutely out of this world, the birra tacos were some of the best I have ever had. The service was amazing and the staff were so nice. When you walk in you would think that it’s a convenience store, but it’s reallly a Mexican deli with homemade food. 10s all across the board would most definitely recommend 👍“

“SoCal girl’s opinion - the tamales are exceptional. They are large, an entree size for sure and the masa is so fluffy, not dry at all. I made a large order for Christmas. Ordering days ahead, they also made a mild chicken version for children with seasoning but no spice. After the party I froze the leftover ones and reheated them in the steamer and they are still 100.“

“The restaurant is great, staff very friendly & helpful in food & drink suggestions. Lovely deco, clean well managed. Menu selections are extremely delicious. Saturday night DJ play music which helps the vibe & have a fun evening.“

“They have great vegan options. I had the vegan nachos and a vegan quesadilla. Both tasty.“

“2nd time here, not disappointed!“
