34 Best Mexican Restaurants near Sylvania

“We came in and were seated at a 6-top in the bar area because there was a wait. Waitress/bartender was not tentative to refilling drinks. After our food came out, she didn’t even come over once to ask how it was (good thing the food was really good) the only time she was nice was when she brought the checks. Left 15% because of the lackluster service. Food was good.“

“The food and the margaritas are good and the atmosphere is good“

“Today was our first time trying Hot Heads...We used doordash for delivery. I must say, it will not be our last time. Absolutely awesome!“

“The only unfortunate thing about my experience at this Taco Bell was that I did not get the names of the kind ladies that helped us. We had a mobile order that had customizations they could not accommodate so they asked what I would like instead. They were also just a fun crew. Bathrooms and restaurant was clean. Even had a clear window you could watch them make the food. Would come back again :)“

“First time back since Covid & the food did not disappoint. Fresh, made to order & delicious and the staff was so kind & helpful. Highly recommend“

“Delicious Food, wonderful service and a warm family atmosphere.“

“Such a beautiful spot, loved everything about it! Luis was so personable, and his staff was so welcoming. The food its self was good enough to make me go back, I’ll definitely make the drive from Detroit again to bring friends with me to experience Deseo!“

“Amazing tacos and such friendly service! And no joke my fav Paloma outside of Mexico! The only thing I’m sad about is I’ve waited so long to go!!“

“5 stars. Stopped in Sunday for dinner. Brady Hall, was my server GREAT SERVICE he's the best, food was very good.“

“First time ever trying a birria taco and it was amazing! Also had the pina colada margarita. I’ll be back for sure“

“Great food service and price. thanks“

“Great food, great service, great time!!“

“I'm on a mission to shout out about this restaurant. The prices are a little high in my opinion, but... (1) the food is worth it, and (2) I am spoiled by the prices in Detroit's Mexicantown, where there is a lot more competition for Mexican food. Mi novio, quien es de Jalisco, México, le gusta mucho la comida de El Tajín. So if Oscar says it's good food, I KNOW it's good, authentic Mexican food. The elote is TO. DIE. FOR In my humble opinion. If you want really great Mexican food in the Toledo area, I cannot recommend this place enough. Try street taco Thursdays ($2 street tacos) if you're skeptical, because at $2 a taco you can't lose. I think once you've experienced El Tajín's food you will become a believer.“

“i had Fredo Playdough 🩷 very polite and professional love his energy going to come back every week great service 🩷“

“I can't say enough great things about this restaurant. My wife and I have been to every Mexican cuisine restaurant around the MI/OH border in the Toledo vicinity. We have never had a bad meal. Always great, and as an added plus their margaritas are Best in Toledo. The staff is fantastic, and the food comes out hot and quick. We stopped in once again last night. It doesn't get better than this!“

“We ate at the Don Juan Mexican Bar & Grill - Maumee, 551 W Dussel Dr, Maumee, OH 43537 and had the best service I have had in a long time. Gina, our waitress, was very nice and offered to let me use her nail glue because my sandal broke. She helped me pick an amazing drink and made sure our party was happy with everything we got. It is nice to see people actually care about the people they are serving and not just the pay check they are getting. We will definitely be going back and hopefully Gina will be there with here bright smile!“

“Excellent Mexican food location with full menu and lunch buffet ($12) options. Large Margaritas ($10) strong & good. Good torillas, hot sauces and dipping cheeses available. Great for gathering with friends or family. Friendly servers. $15-20/pp avg.“

“Thank You to the whole staff for helping pull off an epic surprise party!“

“Everytime I’m in the mood for a great tasty margarita, Don Juan’s at Franklin gets me together everytime. My go to is either a margarita flight (4 - 9oz glasses) or 2 jumbos and a steak taco. The manager Gene (spellcheck) always makes sure i’m great and my order.“

“we love magdalena's and eat here weekly. the staff is friendly and the food is yummy“

“This place is amazing and the staff is so friendly! The food was fantastic, waitress was on point! Would definitely recommend the fajita pizza!!!“

“This is a casual dining restaurant. I have no complaints on this visit. The food, the service, and the pricing we're just right. I arrived before the lunch crowd which is the way I like it. The restaurant was clean and the food was served piping hot without a long delay. Everything was flavorful including the agua horchata! The waitress was attentive without being bothersome. She deserved a good tip and she got it!
12/04/25 Update:
I returned today to see if everything was as good as I remembered, and it was!
Today I ordered the fajita quesadilla - lightly grilled tortilla, rice and guacamole salad - see attached image. The portions were generous and the flavor was OMG delish! Can't wait to bring some friends back and enjoy let's play again!“

“It was so crowded and loud mostly due to a large party I believe. The food wasn't great. They were definitely understaffed. We were seated right next to the door and it was freezing. Horrible experience. They seemed more interested in moving people out than taking care of the customers.“

“Authentic Mexican food, desserts, and drinks. Love the pastor and Campechano tacos. Also try the tres leche cake slice, it’s to die for! Highly recommend the restaurant“

“My go to Mexican restaurant!!“

“Love that there's finally a chipotle in the area. Staff is usually friendly, portions are always good! Tonight my son and I had bowls and our rice wasn't fully cooked. Was a bit crunchy. Every other experience we've had there has been excellent though! Very thankful for Chipotle's presence in this part of Toledo!“

“We were looking for a place to eat, and happened to drive past Palacio Maya Mexican Restaurant. We decided to try it, and we were not disappointed. The selection of food items for vegetarians was amazing with plenty of items to choose from. The staff were quick, efficient and friendly. We would definitely eat here again.

Vegetarian options: There are plenty of vegetarian items to choose from in a separate section of the menu. The beans do not have lard in them, which is also a plus.“

“Such an amazing new hidden gem! Margaritas are fabulous and are even on special several times a week! Beans are absolutely made from scratch every single day and the best I’ve ever tasted! My fiancé and I love the Cajun chicken nachos and the fajitas are cooked per order and are awesome! Great value for the money! Definitely check this place out!!!! Service is always great!“

“Delicious food! My partner and I got birria tacos and quesabirria tacos and both were so good! We came at a slow time so the restaurant was pretty quiet and the food came out quickly. My partner got a large frozen strawberry margarita and we were telling our friends about it all night, genuinely fantastic place!“

“Don't let the looks of the building fool you. This is a 10 out of five, margaritas are amazing, fried plantains are not to be missed, any choice you make will be the best. The atmosphere was relaxing and homey, very welcoming. I can not express what a pleasure it was to eat here and the staff were the Best. Thank You“

“Excellent food, quick efficient professional service
Six of us visited for lunch and we ordered from lunch menu. Everything taste so fresh and come with some side. Super reasonable price $8 is a steal for that much of food. Clean environment, tidy restaurant, colorful seating and nice bar indeed. If I’m in this area then definitely returning .
Only issue I found no soup in the restroom and no towel in the holder.“

“I love the Cali heat taco! And the girls upfront are amazing! Sometimes I go just to see the cashier upfront in grab a taco.“
