50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Shenandoah

“Great food and watermelon Margarita is the best. Good options for dessert.“

“First time for the wife and I at Casa Medina's Restaurant. The wife is a Mexican food lover and me, not so much but I adjust. She wanted to try this place and so I caved in. The restaurant is so cute and colorful and spacious. The music is good and the servers were older men who were gentlemen. Very professional and courteous. We started with the chili con queso Blanco. The small size was enough for both of us. My wife who is Jewish knows a thing or two about chili con queso. She loves it and man did she love the chili con queso (Blanco)! Couldn't stop dipping those chips and honestly, so did I. Great taste. Afterwards she ordered the spinach enchiladas and I countered with the enchiladas Blancas. Delicious! Lots of flavor and fresh to the taste. Wifey, upon leaving the restaurant emphatically says, "We're coming back!" Nuff said.“

“Delicious brunch! Homemade corn and flour tortillas. Great variety. Biscuits and gravy, fresh waffles, omelettes, barbacoa, carnitas, chicharrón in salsa, nopales, barbacoa, chiles rellenos, menudo, etc., etc., etc!“

“Absolutely love this place. We come from Victoria because I LOVE their margaritas so much. Normally I always get the sangria but today also tried the blackberry. They are amazing ❤️“

“My 2 boys and I had lunch here for the first time and April did an amazing job taking care of us! She was very personable and knowledgeable of the menu. She went above and beyond for my kids and they loved her. I appreciate great service these days because it’s very hard to find. Great food, great vibes, and the best service ever! Thank you for everything April! We appreciate you!“

“Had an amazing meal last night at Belly of the Beast! Our second visit after a wonderful experience last weekend. Liz was a joy to meet and Heather took excellent care of us both evenings. We opted to try the Houston Restaurant Weeks menu which was a fabulous way to try different dishes. And honestly, at $39 person, that’s a steal of a deal. Their wine list is unique. Highly recommend the BASKOLI white wine from Spain if you enjoy something light, crisp & ever so slightly effervescent. For appetizers we tried the tuna tostada & the grilled peach burrata. Seconds we had the birria tacos & calabacitas. And our mains were the carne asada & roasted chicken. Everything was incredibly flavorful & beautifully plated with generous portions for mains. Service was top notch. We can’t wait to return to this gem. Truly a wonderful experience start to finish.“

“This is hands down the best taco truck in the spring area. Tacos are $1. They were one of the few places open after hurricane Beryl hit and stayed open way past their original closing time to be able to serve everyone. Even though they were swamped by people they were never rude and pushed food out as fast as they could. Customer Service 10/10. Food 10/10. Price 10/10. I will definitely come back to support this local business. There needs to be more spots like this. It reminded me of what having a community is all about.“

“If you’re looking for California style Mexican food, this is where you’ll find it! Carne asada and California burritos, killer tacos & great margaritas!“

“Everything… tacos are bomb“

“I travel the states and all of Texas frequently, I’ve been a loyal patrol since the 80’s. Enjoying this family restaurant since the days on Federal Road, it’s all you need for the best service and cuisine of its type. It’s a must if you’re into the real deal. Best queso, chips, Rita’s, Horchata and Beef Buritos with Child Gravy and Cheese available plus anything else on the menu, seriously!! I stake my foodie on it. Thomas, please try and visit these great folks.“

“Monarca Mexican Cocina in Creekside Park is a must-visit for Mexican cuisine enthusiasts and steak lovers alike. Their filet mignon is a highlight—perfectly tender, flavorful, and beautifully presented. It’s a top-tier choice that’s elevated by the restaurant's authentic Mexican sides and sauces. Pairing it with one of their frozen margaritas, which strike a perfect balance between tangy and refreshing, takes the experience to another level.

One of the best-kept secrets here is their speakeasy bar, Gus. Tucked away from the main dining area, Gus offers a cozy, exclusive vibe with craft cocktails that blend classic Mexican flavors with creative twists. It’s the perfect spot to unwind or start an evening with friends.

With warm, attentive service and a vibrant yet relaxed atmosphere, Monarca Mexican Cocina is an ideal choice for a special night out or a casual meal with family and friends. It’s a true gem in Creekside Park!“

“Wonderful staff, super friendly and attentive. The food tasted amazing and so fresh, we will be returning soon.“

“Stopped here for breakfast and I knew as soon as I pulled into the parking lot I was about to have a killer breakfast. The first thing I noticed was the menu had some meats listed that are typically more difficult to find. The woman at the window was incredibly kind and helpful. She didn’t recognize us and so made a point to ask us where we were from, how we found them, etc. Every item was customizable to be exactly what I wanted. I got a breakfast taco and my friend got a breakfast burrito. Everything was cooked fresh and our food was hot. The tortillas were obviously homemade, and the fillings were generous enough my friend couldn’t finish their food. They also had a great variety of Mexican sodas and agua Fresca. I will definitely be returning, it was by far one of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had“

“It’s the neighborhood restaurant experience. You are welcome, the food is great and the atmosphere is comfortable.“

“This is our favorite restaurant by far. The fajita meat melts in your mouth every time. You can't get it anywhere else like this. The queso is so yummy, and the salsa is also very good. The service can't be beat either. Every time we have been there, all employees come to the table multiple times to check and make sure we have everything we need. I highly recommend everyone checking this restaurant out. You won't be disappointed.“

“Food was YUMMY! Great service as well.“

“This food truck is super good! I went with my boyfriend’s family and they’re from Mexico and confirmed the authenticity! The tacos de bistec and pastor were amazing with the green salsa! the menudo was also delicious and really good portions!“

“These tacos are the best! I go there when I am in the area. Their quesadillas are bomb, and I love that they're not stingy with their meats at all they make sure all what you bite has some meat in it. The quesadillas have lots of cheese and it's just simply the best, anyone who is in the area go try them, they're super delicious!“

“We are La Casita lovers! Love their breakfast dishes...especially the rancheras!“

“First time trying this place and it was so good! My husband and I got the huevos rancheros with flour tortillas. My daughter got a kids quesadilla. It was made to order let me tell you. It was hot and fresh. People were coming in and out for take out. Can’t wait to try the other menu items. The horchata and lemonade were the bomb too.“
