6 Best Mexican Restaurants near Germantown

“One of the most flavorful, hidden Mexican restaurants in MEMPHIS, Tennessee!!
Yes! Ladies and Gentlemen!
This is coming from a very picky Hispanic man who has an absolutely horrible time finding true Mexican flavors and you seriously have to look no further.
It’s somewhat pricey BUT!!, they offer King Crab 🦀 tacos, filet mignon tacos 🌮, brisket tacos and what my wife loves, the yummiest tamales 🫔 almost as good as her mother’s. The meat protein selection is prime and not cheap cuts as majority of Memphis offers,,, 👏👏👏 bravo
Forgot to take fotos and realized it after I was completely done 🤷🏻‍♂️“

“The food is always great here, no complaints with that. The lighting kind of bothered me however because it was way too bright in there. The ambience would be a little better if the lights were toned down a bit. But other than that I think it’s a great spot to grab a bite to eat with family and friends!“

“Dined here on a Saturday afternoon around 12:30, and it wasn’t crowded at all. We were immediately greeted and seated, which was a great start.

They brought out complimentary chips and salsa—definitely a highlight. The chips were seasoned (not your typical plain chips), and paired really well with the salsa. Super flavorful!

For drinks, I ordered the Tornado Jumbo, and my husband got a Tornado with Hennessy added. Both were really good. I especially liked that each layer had a distinct flavor—some places make colorful drinks that all taste the same, but that wasn’t the case here.

We ordered a single order of steak, chicken, and shrimp fajitas. While the flavor was good, it did feel a bit heavy on the vegetables and a little light on the meat. When the dish first came out, it included bacon, which we weren’t expecting and don’t eat. However, the staff handled it well—they apologized and quickly remade it without any issue. Great customer service there.

Even with the single order, we were able to make about five tacos, which was nice.

My daughter ordered the kids’ cheese pizza with a side option (fries or rice and beans). The pizza was similar to a frozen-style pizza, and she didn’t care for it, but she did enjoy the chips, rice, and beans.

Overall, I’ve been wanting to try this place since we’re in the area often, and I’m glad we did. The menu is extensive, and there are plenty of options to come back and try. Our waitress was also very nice and attentive throughout our visit.

I would definitely return!“

“My friend and I had a wonderful lunch today. Our first visit, the shrimp and fish tacos were wonderful. We loved the fresh guac too! The restaurant is really beautiful. We can't wait to take more friends for dinner!“

“Sunday was the 3rd time we had been to la hacienda. All 3 times the food has been very good and consistent in taste, quality, and quantity. The service has been excellent each time. Sunday we also ordered something to go. We ordered an appetizer but the waitress put it together like it was a meal and that made it extra special for our friend.“

“Great food and drinks. Highly recommended!“
