50 Best Mexican Restaurants in New Braunfels

“We had a table for nine after church on a Sunday so it took a while to be seated. But the wait was worth it! Wonderful atmosphere. Excellent service. Great food. We’ve never been disappointed and it remains one of our favorite places to go for the past 30 years.“

“100% recommend!! Great made to order meals that are so good. And probably the cleanest restaurant around. Every time I notice not even a crumb on the floors. If they take the time to keep the front that clean, can expect the kitchen looks the same.“

“Flavor explosion! 🔥 The fresh, juicy chicken topped with their tangy pickled onions is absolutely addictive. The charro beans are next level and easily some of the best you’ll find in New Braunfels. Then finish it off with the churros… golden, crispy, and dangerously delicious. Every bite had us wanting more. We’ll definitely be back!“

“We went for our first time. We were the only ones in the restaurant and service was very poor. We waited over 15 minutes for our check while the owner sat at another table chatting with someone. Food was good however the menu needs improvements. The descriptions were very vague and it didnt seem like a menu for a mexican restaurant.. And I have never been to a mexican restaurant that doesnt serve chips and salsa.“

“Nice atmosphere and comfortable inside.“

“Great staff Tortillas are delicious Breakfast was amazing Reasonably priced“

“Excelente comida y precio“

“Outstanding food, atmosphere and service. Very attentive staff“

“Best Tacos I have had so far. Taco ingredients taste so fresh. And the price is perfect for what you get. Of course we got there Birria tacos, and yes they were amazing. I only wish they had a rewards program because I’d be their number one redeemer! lol go try this place you will definitely not be disappointed. Thank you Rendell and will be back again for dinner. ~Ben~“

“No pics bc I ate my food before I can even think about it.
Don’t let the building fool you! Some one’s mom/grandma is cooking up the food, you can just tell! It’s so authentic the tortillas are soft and delicious. I wish they were closer to San Antonio ! Don’t hesitate eat here. ITS WORTH IT !“

“Hubby and I just took our three small dogs here to eat. What a pleasant experience! Pet friendly out front eating! Reagan was our server and she was excellent! Sweet, knowledgeable, courteous and she checked on us often to see if we needed anything. Food was delicious! Carne guisada, enchiladas, guacamole-all top notch delicious! Margaritas are also some of the best we ever had! Fair prices! Recommend! We are from Texas, but moved to Georgia-sure Miss good Texmex!🥰“

“Love the food, love the atmosphere, love the service! Always a good time coming to this location and you just can’t beat Torchy’s queso or Guac. TOP NOTCH.“

“This is one of those places you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. This is my families favorite taqueria in New Braunfels. I don't go here for the atmosphere 🤣.

It is family owned and everything is homemade and the family has always been great to us and recognize us when we call in our orders.

Some mention the size of the tacos are small, I don't feel that way. I appreciate that they aren't stuffed to the max!

The breakfast tacos are great, the chicken fajita are awesome and my favorite is the barbacoa! They also have platters, but I enjoy the tacos to much to not get them.

Go get some!!“

“The caldo was everything we hoped it would be. The flavors were like coming home. The fish tacos had that crispy outside and moist inside that I just can't make at home. So delicious. Daniella was so kind to us. The dining area was bright and spacious. Really enjoyed my experience today.“

“Got breakfast to go and will definitely be a regular returning costumer. Breakfast tacos were flavorful and hot. They came labeled which no other place does anymore for some reason. Pancakes were perfectly cooked, fluffy and stacked high. Hashbrowns were crispy and cheap to add on. Everything was affordable and service was quick and the lady was very polite“

“So very Freindly, Courteous Proffesional, Menu Knowledgeable. Kid Friendly, veggie options, dietary restrictions, Good parking, wheel chair accessible, quiet, but with lots of laughter. Absolutly Love this place for coffee, breakfast & lunch. MUAH !“

“Enchilada’s carne guisada carne a la Mexicana“

“Today, my husband and I decided to get lunch at Las Palapas at Creekside in New Braunfels, on our way to Home Depot. We were greeted quickly. We were seated in Brooklyn's section. The food was hot, drinks were cold. Food arrived quickly. We had the Enchilada verdes plate and the super bowl, with a coupon for the mama ruth flauta plate. They were good, the shredded chicken was over salted but still edible. Our server, Brook, came to take our order quickly, when we ordered we asked for our drinks with no ice. She brought out mine correctly but my husbands had a full a glass of ice. She took it back and fixed it. While we were eating, she checked on us once after bringing out our food. When we asked for our bill, we asked for the military discount. When she brought out our bill, we handed her the gift card we had along with 20.00 cash to make up the difference. When she returned she brought out two 5 dollar bills. our change was supposed to be: $10.55. When we noticed it, we asked the other waitress in the area to ask her to come back to our table. When she was called to the table for us to explain about it the other waitress in the section was still there. When Brooke was told about the fact that we wanted the 55 cents, she took an attitude about us wanting our 55 cents. Saying: they want the 55 cents? while she was standing right in front of us. We should have called the manager at that moment. The way I feel is that she took the 55 cents. She should have given us the entire amount of change per our receipt, allowing us to choose tell her to keep it. As it was we were going to give her an 11.00 tip, once we discovered the change returned to us was not correct and she displayed an attitude, we changed the amount of tip to 1.55. We have talked to the manager about this issue as well. I used to work waiting on tables, I always give good tips, and I know the work is hard and sometimes you get bad customers, however: NEVER did I not give back the full change on the receipt. In my book that would have been considered stealing from the customer.“

“Recomendable!!! Muy rico 😋💕♾️🫶🏻🙏🏻“

“If you want some good Carne Casada tacos go to this place..the were fresh, hot and had a good flavor..this restraunt isn't playing when it comes to good Mexican food..prices are good plates are portioned well...overall its always a good experience when eating here...A+“

“Need numbers for every single menu item, if you can only hire Spanish speakers that do not a word of english. Food Is 5 stars, service is always difficult and half the time online orders are missing something or have something wrong. Business would be booming if they made small adjustments like that, bring a translator app if you are getting anything in the evening. Not exactly served with a smile either, especially if you can't speak fluent spanish.“

“I just moved to New Braunfels from the Austin area. I ordered my usual two 4 item breakfast tacos. The tacos are double in size from what I am used to in Austin. It's also a sit down place with awesome service. I went early on a Sunday morning and saw 6 servers there. And they have a patio that you can bring your dog to. The food was excellent and I could tell they used fresh tortillas.“

“We were there today loved the food as always and the service is always amazing especially your hostess. She is so friendly even when it’s so packed and crazy she’s so friendly and has a smile her face.“

“Run. Don't walk. Run and get you some! My husband having lived in Egypt for a period of time was a bit hesitant to try this food because he didn't want to be disappointed, but this is real authentic Egyptian food! The price is a steal for the portion and we were literally salivating on the drive home smelling this. The owner is the nicest guy too so that's a plus. We will be visiting weekly. Thank you! ❤️“

“Cool little spot. We got there too late to eat, even though we were starving. Went to restroom and there was no toilet paper had to phone a friend for help. The drinks, rum and coke and a whiskey were so light on alcohol I am pretty sure they did not have any...at all.“

“Authentic atmosphere, good food portions. I had the beef fajita plate and the meat was very flavorful and the portion was HUGE. Def worth the $17 unlike other places who charge 30$ for a small portion. My only complaints were that the rice wasn’t very good and the refried beans were definitely from a can. As for the service, I can see how some people are reviewing poor service but in my opinion that’s just cause of the language barrier. Overall, I’d recommend and I will def be back.“

“Food was good but it took over a half hour for our food to come out for 3 entrees and 1 kids meal. Apparently if you're there at shift change they take forever... also the waitress reprimanded us for asking for refills. 2 of us had 2 refills during the meal and 2 of us only had the original serving. And my tea was refilled with soda 🤢“

“I’ve lived here for 10+ years and this place has never had bad customer service. Everyone smiles, the food is always good and the inside is always clean! 5 stars!“

“We eat there all the time. We have never been disappointed.“

“Finally, amazing gulf shrimp fajitas. No more driving to Pappasitos in SA! Moved from Houston and most restaurants have been disappointing until now.“

“This was the first time being in new Braunfels visiting a friend needed a good restaurant with good scenery and nice atmosphere. We decided to go to Casa Garcia. Very friendly staff. The service was amazing. Our server was Chloe hands down 10 out of 10.

Drinks is fair priced food is fair priced and very tasteful.

We’ll definitely return to the location in the near future of any type of lucky. I would love to have Chloe as my server she is highly recommended.“

“My favorite restaurant, and I am delighted that they are finally in New Braunfels! We always order the same thing, a mini ground beef burrito, topped with queso. Yummmmmm“

“5 stars. Food was on point, waitress was prompt even though she was busy. Would most definitely recommend the tangasauras sauce. I love this place and will definitely be back.“
