50 Best Mexican Restaurants in Memphis

“Friendly service and good food.“

“a minute ago New ♡Great food, great service and great atmosphere! ♡ We had a group of 12 for a birthday dinner. The staff was more than accommodating, they were down right awesome and made us feel special. The food was delicious and the portions were generous. We loved the salsa bar too! We will recommend to family and friends to eat here. 🔥We will definitely be eating here often!“

“Ordered tacos de Cachete (beef cheek).... From a native Southern Californian - this hit the spot!
The asada steak was delicious too. Only complaint or request would be if they offered escabeche (pickled jalapeños and carrots).... This would take it over the edge. Definitely will return! Best taqueria in town so far!

Parking: Lunch truck/trailer.“

“Amazing service! I recommend you to come“

“My absolute favorite Mexican restaurant!“

“We LOVE it! Food is great and staff is amazing.“

“I love going to get my food from there after finishing tattooing my clients because I always feel tired afterwards. The Lord and his husband always treat me with respect and friendship and it is not like eating. The food is delicious, the place is very clean and cool, the cakes are delicious and my husband likes it a lot too. Thank God for this restaurant!“

“Such fresh ingredients. The tortillas seem home made…maybe they are! Many sauce options. Something for all taste buds. My Baja shrimp tacos were fire. Light. Fresh and hit the spot. They have computer tellers but someone came and took our order. That was accommodating. We visit here whenever we are in the area!“

“This place genuinely serves the best tacos and burritos I've ever had in my life. As someone who travels for works and has the singular pleasure of trying eateries from around the country, I have never and I mean ever come across a restaurant, mind you a food stand with Mexican food as genuine as this. If you've never been here or are traveling through, you have to try this place!!! The Asada tacos I got were LOADED and tasted amazing. Their Pastor burrito, no joke, brought a damn tear to my eye it was so good.

Bravo y'all, keep doing what you're doing!“

“Best burger in town!!! 🍔 🍔“

“My family and I went in and were somewhat apprehensive after the last restaurant we went to. However as soon as we walked in the staff was incredibly friendly. The place was clean and had a fun atmosphere where you could either listen to music, watch tv, or simply talk to the people you came with. The food portions were huge. It was so good. Our waiter was on top of everything. Overall I definitely recommend this place to anyone that wants great food!“

“Yall I’ve been ordering food from these people for three days straight on Uber eats😭😭 when I tell y’all you have to order don’t even think about it just do it! The Al Pastor, Carne Asada & Tripa tacos are 🔥🔥🔥!! Their salsas are also super delicious all 4!“

“Delicious food and great customer service. Hard to find now days!“

“Giselle is the best!! Strong good drinks 🤤 she’s polite“

“Taco nganas is super legit like the best taco truck in town. They're not voted best in town for no reason. It isn't the most authentic as far as traditional authentic style but they are the best. My daughter also loves ramen, its like "her thing", and taco nganas birria Ramen bowl is so delicious and flavorful. Thier shrimp tacos are absolutely fire! I was even blown away at the incredible flavor of something so simple as a quesadilla. Literally everything the do is the best a step above the rest. Thier prices are a slight bit higher than average taco truck prices but theres a good reason for it. The extra steps and preparations they put into each item being top notch is worth it. This place is a must to every taco truck lover for sure.“

“Muy rica comida!! 100% sabor, calidad y servicio“

“Xelente, muy sabrosos tacos !!!!“

“Excelente cien por ciento recomendado El mercadito de Memphis“

“This place was referred to me by one of my patients. I kept saying I can't find any decent tamales since I moved here two years ago. She was please tell me about this lovely little spot I absolutely love their tamale options and have gone back multiple times. My husband was surprisingly pleased with the rice and beans (he's not really a Mexican food fan). I would definitely highly recommend this place!“

“This was my first time trying their food, & it DID NOT disappoint. I'll definitely be back. I ordered the Birria Pizza (Pollo) and Asada Taco (single) from the 2760 Perkins location. They have several locations throughout the city.

Kid-friendliness: Free outside dining that includes games like connect 4 and other games you can play while you wait. Kid and adult friendly.“

“Great place definitely recommend if in the area“

“clean, nice staff and the food was great. Thanks“

“Ever was an amazing waiter. He was knowledgeable, nice and kept checking on us. We’ll be back!“

“Hands down, no exception, beyond a reasonable doubt, unequivocally.... the best tacos in town! I need to figure out how I ordered the first time because they were dipped in a red broth or something, and it was amazing! Love all the tacos I have ordered so far.
I can't wait to go back again and again!!!
Service is great and if you're somewhat in a hurry, this should be your go-to.
I'll try to take pics next time.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!“

“Great food I must say me and my friends have lunch dates all the the time at the Winchester location and the staff is kind and friendly food was delivered hot and fast..“

“Excellent ! Just opened but moving along good“

“I’ve always loved Los Comales! Their chips and salsa are my favorite—especially the green sauce, I don’t know what they put in it, but I’m in love. I usually get the shrimp quesadilla, burrito, or chimichanga, and it’s always really good. I recommend sticking with a classic Mexican plate. The atmosphere is nice, though I liked it even more before they renovated—it had that old-vintage view . The service is mostly sweet and kind, though sometimes hit or miss. Overall, I definitely recommend giving it a try!“

“Best mexican restaurant in Memphis“

“The Moxy Memphis is such a fun place to stay. The hotel has a great energy, from the stylish lobby to the comfortable rooms. What really stood out for us though was the service at the bar. Donna was incredible—she went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, remembered our names, and mixed some of the best cocktails we’ve had in a long time. She turned a good trip into a memorable one. We’ll definitely be back the next time we’re in town.“

“so good. genuinely the best birria tacos ever. seriously“

“My mother and I went to celebrate Mother’s Day and were met with very good and authentic Mexican food. The atmosphere was very clean and comfortable. At the end of our meal the server came out with a complimentary dessert, gift, and balloon for my mother. This made the experience even better.“

“Cocina Mexicana Bar & Grill on Millbranch Rd is definitely a whole vibe. I had the Fiesta Nachos with shrimp, steak, and chicken, and they were fire! Full of flavor, perfectly seasoned, and stacked just right. I also had one of their margaritas, and let me just say—they use real liquor, no watered-down drinks here! It was strong, smooth, and hit just right.

What I really liked is the way the place is set up—one side is chill for folks who just wanna sit down, eat, and vibe. The other side had turn-up music, good energy, and a fun atmosphere. Whether you’re going for a relaxing dinner or to catch a whole vibe with friends, this spot got you covered.“

“they have great food and service“

“Good Authentic Mexican Food 😍“

“Look, being a Cali native and Mexican, I know a thing or two when it comes to my peoples' food lol. Nuff said. To that extent, I'm a huge foodie so I love all sorts of food and have had variations of Mexican food from several different countries; my palate can attest to that. So, with all that being said -- this place serves pretty solid Mexican food. I've tried margarita storm, charlie browns, and a few others. They all have their merits, and honestly, most of these places charge an arm and a leg for a damn taco. lol So give these guys a break. Overall, the food in my experience at least, has tasted great. Service was pretty good too; it's a small place, but they've recently moved to a new location which I love. Their pricing isn't bad, like at all lol. And their taco tuesay, don't even get me started on the variety you get from this place. It's awesome. Their horchata, not bad. Beer selection, also not bad. Overall, this place isn't bad at all. Now, is the best? hmmm, perhaps not, but it meets my needs and I'm happy with that tbh. If you want gourmet mexican food in thailand, expect to pay accordingly.“

“Absolutely 💯. Perfect! Great service. Great food. Those burritos are wild too.“
