16 Best Mexican Restaurants in Erie

“First off this place is our go to when we go out to eat. Yesterday, we went for a birthday. Originally I called about 5 hours prior to the time we expected to be there to see if they took reservations. They said they don't on the weekends but do during the week. However, she took down my name, number and the party size. They called 15 mins prior to the time set to see if we still were coming so they could have the tables set up. Upon arriving they were super busy. They had the table all set up and ready with chips and salsa. Promptly took our drink orders as we waited for more people to show up. More people than thought showed up and they quickly were able to accommodate them to our party. They sung happy birthday at end and even did a redo as we requested whip cream in the face. ha. The waitress was absolutely amazing she got all orders correct and remembered who they went to. She also was on top of drink refills and checking in a good amount of times. Everyone was more than satisfied with their food. We spent about 1.5 hours there from start to finish. With a party of about 17 people.“

“Best Burrito and Guac in the Tri State area! WELL WORTH THE PRICE! Help this small business out! Gem of the community!“

“I've been to Mexico many times and always loved the street food. This place is the closest to the food I have had in Mexico by far! Lovely people who own and run this place. I really hope they make it big! I want them around for many years to come.“

“This place is legit. The staff was welcoming and helpful, the place was spotless even during a Friday lunch hour, and the food.... oh the food! The burrito was beyond massive and my husband raved about the carnita being flavorful and tender. My bowl had to tip the scales at well over a pound, at least. My chicken was moist and, other than the rice, could be an extremely healthy option, if that's what is desired. With the addition of a pint of salsa and seemingly half a bag's worth of homemade chips ( because we had NO idea), this is easily be enough for several lunches. Those of you that are local know this type of quality and authenticness is a rare find on Peach Street. Well done and cheers to many future visits!“

“My wife and I decided to give el canelo rest a try today we have been wanting to try it for a few years now so today was the day. And it by far exceeded our expectations the portions were massive and the prices are really cheap and they do not scrimp on any side“

“Was passing thru town someone at gas station recommend Amigos or El Canelo stopped at canelos to try it T Bone steak was good just salty for my taste still okay it comes with rice and beans no lettuce tomato avocado very simple plate most other places that I have been before got me use to all of this on my plate but I totally forgot when I asked for there hot sauce of the house and tasted it.

“We went there last night for dinner. Food and service were outstanding. We were greeted promptly and seated. Our server brought us chips and salsa and took our drink orders in a timely manor. He then took our food order after bringing our drinks. Our food was brought out in a timely fashion, hot and fresh. Food was excellent.“

“We had an Event in the Ballroom on Friday. Julio could not have been more helpful, very easy to work with. He had wonderful suggestions, too. The atmosphere was fabulous, we hired Ed Koscelek for uplights to create an even more beautiful ambience for our 200 attendees. The food was delicious and the service excellent! HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Thank you, Julio and Staff! We appreciate ALL that you did to make our evening the best!“

“Moes Monday is one of my favorite days of the week! Everything is always fresh, taste delicious, and super friendly people. I love that they have a different variety of salsa every month and lots of choices. See you next Monday🌯“

“My husband and I came in, it was pretty busy and the line was growing. We also noticed a lot of online orders coming in. They were very understaffed tonight with only four people total. Staff kept their composure and were very friendly while completing tasks in a quick and balanced fashion bouncing between online orders and in-person customers. This is a great team that deserves a raise and constant five star reviews. Kudos to them and to the manager in store. You guys did great given the crazy!!“

“I order on doordash got my order and my bowls was both wrong , I ordered chicken and got something else and stuff in the bowl I didn’t want either.. Called the store but got automated message and didn’t let me total to a actual person . Very disappointed ☹️“

“We have waited for this restaurant, and it’s very good. It’s service is little slow. Last 2-3 times they were out of something or other. We were advised for 10 minutes delay. Now, being a new place, didn’t expect for fryer broke down. So can’t visit for whole family as one family member only eats hard shell tacos. It’s unavailable for weeks.“

“My son picked this place because of the cactus logo and what a pleasant surprise. The food was awesome both of the kids loved it. Kylie our server was outstanding. So helpful and helped add to a great weekend with my kiddos. We will without a doubt return and will recommend.“

“We decided to stop by here for Lunch. We were a group of 7 people.

We ordered Chalupa, Quasadilla, Chips and Guac and a Drink.

We all loved everything we ordered.
The staff here was really sweet and nice.
I will highly recommend visiting this location if you are a Taco Bell lover. 😍“
