37 Best Tex-Mex Restaurants near Ridgewood

“I have been coming here for the past 8 years or so. The food is amazing, it’s been consistent every time I come. The staff is attentive and make sure their guests are doing well and continuously asking if we need anything. I love their drinks, I’ve had mojitos, margaritas, etc. Lorenzo always welcomes my friends and myself with a smile and amazing energy. The atmosphere has progressed overtime and keeps getting better. I highly recommend coming to visit hungry burrito for delicious food, great drinks, and a great time.“

“Wonder has been one of our most consistent go-tos. Pickup is usually easy, the system works, the space is clean, and the food has honestly surprised me from day one. When they first opened, it felt like every order was dialed in, like the kitchen cared.

I’ve tried a ton of the menu and there are staples I keep coming back to: the salmon is always generously portioned and perfectly cooked, the sauces and capers are on point, and the broccolini is genuinely one of the best sides I’ve had anywhere - that char + acidity goes with everything. Even the simple stuff like fries and potatoes hit when they’re done right.

That’s why I’m leaving this review: lately I’ve had a stretch of 5-6 orders with small misses that didn’t used to happen - missing toppings, uneven pizzas, a pizza with a huge bubble, broccolini missing the lemon dressing, stuff like that. Not enough to stop ordering, but enough that it makes me stick to the “safe” items instead of exploring.

Still a big fan, still ordering regularly, just hoping the consistency snaps back to how it was because Wonder at its best is hard to beat.“

“This is a gem of a place. Decided to go to NYC to support the San Antonio Spurs for Game 3 of the NBA Finals and saw that Yellow Rose was not only hosting a Spurs watch party, but is owned by San Antonians. I had shiner beer queso & chips, a steak taco that was stuffed with a lot of meat, and shared the skillet cornbread with my new Spurs friends. Atmosphere was awesome and the servers were so nice.“

“I was starving and near by and a burrito i knew would cure what ails me.

Got the birria burrito, thing was huge, came with consume and was amazing. Felt like it was made with love. Chips and a coke and I don't need to eat got the rest of the day.

10 out of 10, would totally stop by here again. Not even just because I am starving.“

“We have come here every week for years and it never disappoints—always a five-star experience. As someone from Texas, I can confidently say this is the best Tex-Mex I’ve had outside of Texas. The food is consistently excellent, the staff is warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere is inviting every time. I’ve loved everything I’ve tried, but the white queso and shrimp tacos are absolute standouts.“

“omg Sophia was absolutely amazing! She catered to alllll my allergies. And it was my boy's bday and she made it extra special. Totally recommend to anyone in Chelsea!“

“We are regulars at Burrito Bar. The food is great and the atmosphere is fun. The best part of Burrito Bar is the waiter Cevice. He makes everything feel like having dinner at home with your family, you just don’t have to clean up or cook. Highly recommend this spot for brunch or dinner.“

“Great food and service. My after work food stop when working late on a Friday at Governors Island.“

“My first visit was last year and yesterday we decided to go again since indoor dining was reopening. We were a group of three, friendly staff and our host went above and beyond at a point that coffee was not in the menu and he made it for us. We ordered margaritas and were on point, fajitas, Mac and cheese, churros, beer, chips with salsa and many other things. Every single thing was good. Me personally never ordered Mac and cheese on a restaurant and I have to go hands down on your chef because that was the best one I’ve had in a while. To everybody: make sure you support local restaurants like this one, and tip well for their service, they really need it and the quality of their service hasn’t go down even on a pandemic. Support Lobo!!!!!“

“This spot combines the right elements in perfect proportion. We stepped into a restaurant with minimal noise. Their cooking remains impressive and the space feels special. The culinary experience and customer attention both impress. This restaurant warrants your time.“

“bartenders are wonderful and Barbara is doing a great job of managing“

“This is a hidden gem on Bergenline Ave! The food is delicious, fresh and very tasty. I had the fried porgy, double cheese burger and the fried chicken with yuca fries was the star, a 10/10! They stay open LATE and have a beautiful ambiance AND drinks! One of my neighborhood faves for sure ❤️“

“Garden Tortillas & Chinese Express never disappoints. The food was amazing — flavorful, fresh, and cooked just right. Every bite was satisfying, and the portions were more than worth it. Whether you’re craving something comforting or bold in flavor, this place delivers. The staff was friendly and efficient, and the food came out fast. Easily one of my go-to spots, and I highly recommend giving it a try!“

“Lemme make something clear for yall… the couple who run this place is kind and lovely, yes the prices on the wall need to be updated… just ask the person in the front of those prices are correct 🤷‍♂ or order off of seamless… this is their take on Mexican food… it’s not going to be authentic lol and another thing the food taste good and is pretty priced good if you see the prices on the menu… you get a lot of bang for your buck. That’s all that needs to be said, if you order online it’s pretty quick.“

“Great Tacos 🌮 Thank you For your excellent Service“

“This place is definitely a sleeper. When you’re hungry Tex mex food just hits different. I won’t lie, they don’t do the best wrap jobs on the burritos and the meat be dry sometimes, but honestly the flavoring is good. The price is okay, they be wanting almost 4 dollars for a taco.“

“Seriously good home style chili from awesome peeps.“

“Great local takeout spot for tex mex food. Filling, good taste, inexpensive and friendly people. The enchiladas, chimichangas and combo dish are my go to. Also really like the chorizo taco and black bean taco, black and pinto beans with rice.Even the American food is pretty good, especially if youre trying to decide what to order with a picky eater: burgers, onion rings, chicken or steak sandwiches.Try the fried apple sticks..“

“was afraid to post this review because places this good should stay secret. the food was incredible. so flavorful and fresh, truly magnificent. would post pictures but the food was so good i licked the cardboard tray clean before i got a chance to even think about photos. amazing portion sizes. food is filling, tastes incredibly fresh, and seasoned perfectly. looking forward to coming back“

“I’m getting those three stars because I’ve eaten here before and the food was better (had decent burritos here). But today I ordered something different. To be fair, I only ate the nachos which were shared. But they were really bad. The cheese was liquid, the “sour cream“ was liquid, the chips disintegrated. It was worse than a Taco Bell, nacho Bell grande, which can be quite delicious given the right circumstances. I just don’t think there are any circumstances under which he nachos would be acceptable.“

“The two Hispanic ladies were very nice my food was nice and fresh the FRIES WERE NICE AND HOT.crunchyyy. excellent service because my card wasn't working and thr Kiosk said pay at the register and she was very nice about it someone else would of had an atttude.“

“This is the best Mexican food I’ve found in NYC so far. At least as far as burritos go. I get the Acapulco burrito (which has no meat). It’s still not like mexican food in the south west, but I love it and keep going back. Very fast preparation.“
