50 Best Mexican Restaurants in Nashville

“Love the old school feel of a Cantina with a bar outside eating. Walk up order bring it to your table. You have a bar where you can order drinks. Eat tacos in the sunshine or eat them inside. They also play great eclectic tunes. I had great service when I was there.“

“Such good food at good prices. Staff was amazing, so friendly and quick. If you’re in Nashville looking for a good dinner that won’t make you completely broke, come here!“

“SUPERB FOOD!!!!! Savory tender birria beef!!!!! Tasty elote!!!“

“I thoroughly enjoyed my steak burrito. The steak itself didn't stand out that much but did contribute. The tacqueria salsa and Mexican rice was great. I got the chipotle tortilla - I'm not sure if I actually noticed any difference versus a regular tortilla, but I'd get it again since I enjoyed the burrito as a whole. Chips and salsa were good too - salsa bar is nice.

The line was out the door and around the corner of the building - despite liking the food I doubt I'd come back for dinner again for this reason. Hopefully lunch is better.“

“Awesome as always is Jus saying“

“Went here for late night Mexican and boy was it tasty! Fresh ingredients, served hot from the kitchen super fast service. Chicken fajitas were the bomb. Salsa with chips so perfect. Large menu. Festive outdoor area, playing Mexican music at a moderate level but still had great convo. If you're looking for a quiet fancy place this isnt it, more dive hole in the wall. Yummy, authentic, highly recommend!“

Not many restaurants can deliver these numbers to me. Make a trip, eat good food. Enjoy great service, and way above average Margaritas.“

“Great chicken and the sides did not disappoint. Had to stop after driving by so many times and seeing the smokers going hard at all times if the day. I'm thinking there's tacos and plates to be made but I just rolled with what everyone else was ordering and I knew I could get a chicken even with my lil bit of Spanish (fortunately the cashier knew I was in over my head there). I'll definitely be back soon.“

“The grill chicken is good. The cheesecake is my favorite item.“

“The truth is, the food was very good. I ordered 5 tacos and the meats were good. I think they put a lot of everything into the tacos and the service is fast. However, they should improve the customer service in the rest. Good, the restaurant was quite clean. ✅✅“

“We've visited a few times while in town. For being in Nashville,ytou gotta give it to them. Definitely worth a visit, they got delicious tacos. Only ever ordered steak tacos and ride as thats my jam. Each time was great and you cant beat their pricing. Ive been to so many throughout the US and so many are eay over priced garbage, not this place! Thanks guys!“

“I had the Quesa Birria Tacos today at the Hobson Pike location and they were the best I've eaten in and around Nashville. The consomme is gelatinous and delicious!! The tacos were filled with flavorful, tender beef slow cooked with onions, herbs and topped with cheese. The corn tortillas were fried to the perfect crispness and not greasy, which is not always the case at some restaurants. The margaritas were strong and refreshing. Service was a little slow, but I think they were just getting it right in the kitchen. Our server was very attentive.“

“I always get the pollo a la creama with a large side of cheese dip w/ chips and it’s always sooo good! Definitely worth the money, everything is fresh and they have great customer service.

Parking: Shared parking lot with the gas station“

“Great Mexican subs! Huge! They are really tasty, and they are becoming kind of expensive but they are delicious I love to eat here when I want a sub.
They have burgers and tacos too, but honestly I only tried the Tortas (subs).
If you are super hungry and starving always go for the torta cubana. You may want to share it.... It is huge.“

“Best tacos in Nashville hands down. I spent 3 months in Nashville for an internship and visited this place multiple times every week.The language barrier is real though, so be prepared to use google translate on your phone.But all in all, it is unreal how authentic and good this food is. It's worth just the trip to eat there.“

“I went there with coworkers and I must say some of the best Mexican food I've had. I got chicken tacos which were sp flavorful. Everything is made fresh to order. It did not disappoint. My coworkers both got burritos and had nothing but great things to say. It's great for grabbing a quick bite. Check them out if you're in the area.“

“The service was fantastic. The food was so delicious. We had a variety of food and not one thing disappointed. It is hard to go any where that every bite is delicious but that is what happened here.If you get a chance you should check it out.“

“Best burrito I have had in Nashville. By far. Highly recommend.“

“Had an awesome meal tonight (tacos) with friends! Our server Sarah was terrific! I highly recommend it!“

“I believe it is probably good food but the drinks are somewhat premade and you can’t taste any liquor/tequila in the margaritas and daiquiris.“

“So happy that I found this hidden gem! I don’t normally leave reviews but after multiple visits I had to give a shoutout to Family Tacos for the best tacos I’ve ever had. Located on Charlotte Ave in Sylvan Park! Great staff, great atmosphere, and even greater tacos!“

“So delicious. We’re from out of state and we’re looking for a dinner away from the center of Nashville, that wasn’t a chain. We literally saw it on Google maps right before we passed it and decided to stop. SO glad we did. I’ve been missing the good pupusas I used to get in NW Arkansas, and was so happy when I saw them on the menu. We also had a sope al pastor, chorizo tacos and a new-to-us dish called pollo con tajadas. I recommend ALL of them.“

“The food was so good it brought a tear to my eye!“
