50 Best Mexican Restaurants in Waco

“Amir is awesome and the food is great!“

“Visited Cultura Mia Mexican Cuisine for Mother's Day Brunch, food taste and presentation was very good, they do have the best chilaquiles, we tried the green and chipotle, also tried the pork chop and eggs, huevos rancheros, and chile relleno were also very good. Not fond of having to pay for hot sauce and chips, but the sauce is tasty. Place is clean and service is very good. Got to meet the chef/owner and we complimented him on the wonderful food taste. Will have to go back and try their other dishes for lunch and dinner. Totally recommend visiting this authentic Mexican restaurant, not your regular tex-mex food.“

“This place is awesome 😎 highly recommend!“

“Delicious food! Love the salsa! We will be back soon!“

“The food overall was fresh and tasted pretty good. Surf and turf burrito was quite the mix of ingredients but it worked well. Portions were fair for the price. Only disappointment was the red sauce, I'd probably give that a 3/10 way too much tomato flavor not enough chile cilantro etc. Verde sauce was pretty good though, easy 7.5 or 8/10. I'd smother a lot of stuff in that green sauce.

There's enough variety that you may want to experiment with the menu until you find a favorite dish. I would happily order here again, but I'm not going out of my way just to get some if that makes sense. I'll give it a solid 7/10 with room to grow, which is quite good for a new place.“

“Max was our server tonight and he was excellent! It was super busy and sooo loud for some reason, but he was patient, kind, and got everything out perfectly! Austin was also very helpful! Great food and service all around!“

“Got the $15 super pupusa, and boy did it not disappoint!!! It was delicious, had excellent flavor, and it wes big!! Filled up a standard plate to-go box. If you need bigger than that, they got what you need!! Hole in the wall with excellent flavors. You may have to wait a little bit because there is only 1 person working, but I promise it will be worth it!! I saw them on Facebook months back, and just happened to remember before I left Waco to return to Houston...“

“Delicious food and phenomenal service! I had the carne asada tacos. The meat is delicious and so flavorful. They have so many salsas to choose from. I love how everything is so fresh and made by them. That’s not easy to find. Their service is also worth noting. Everyone working there is so friendly! 10/10 food and service.“

“I don’t know what’s better the service or the food!!! The portion sizes are amazing and Angel was the only employee working and my goodness I haven’t seen service that amazing in a fully staff restaurant, let alone by himself!!We will be back!“

“I'm so happy this was an option as I drove through Wako. Otherwise, we would have just kept going. We only like stopping for food we know come from small family businesses with authentic recipes!

Some of the best tacos I've ever had!“

“Finally found the time to drive out to try this restaurant and we are so happy we did. Wonderful place, and wonderful folks running it. It’s a little pricey, but that’s because grow all the food that they serve from my understanding. Let me tell you, the food is wonderful. Peach Sweet Tea, table bread, and Corn Fritters are a must try. Family friendly atmosphere. Very clean facility. We will be back.“

“The food was awesome. The staff was the friendliest restaurant staff I’ve ever experienced before. Today was my first time to visit this place. We immediately felt like family. Can’t wait to go back.“

“Excellent! Neat, clean, clean restrooms, fantastic friendly service! I had 3-fish tacos. Very fresh Pico de gallo toping with creamy Chipotle sauce, served with fresh lime! A completely pleasurable experience!“

“I wish I would have taken a picture of the food we ordered because it looked and tasted delicious. The carnitas were so tender and had great flavor. Also loved their lemonade. The service was great and our waitress took really good care of us. Definitely recommend.“

“After many trips of passing by, we finally stopped by and the service was spectacular and the food was the best! Even though we arrived 10 minutes before they closed, they were very friendly!!“

“The food and service were great. 1st time in.
We had the steak taco fajita salad. Steak was really good and flavorful and chalupa plate. Everything was great, fresh and cooked to order. Except the canned orange cheese sauce. It was on the chalupa and was awful. It covered up the great taste of the meat. Very thick chips, possible homemade? Salsa was good and spicy.
No alcohol served. Will be back!!“

“Today was my first time at Molly's and I loved it, for two things. The young gentleman, Joshua, was so friendly and welcoming. I will gladly say he is one of the best servers I have had in a very long time. Second, I ordered Chicken Fajita Nachos and they were so good!! I will definitely be back!“

“Really good! Jesus was great! Friendly, helpful, polite and attentive. He recommended the Tacos Al Carbon which I hadn’t noticed, with both varieties (beef and chicken) and the salsa verde which was awesome! He did a great job (Thanks Jesus). The food was great as was the service! Atmosphere is a bit older but the staff keeps the place clean from what I can tell. Overall I would definitely go back!“

“This is my first time ordering from here for breakfast- I am absolutely coming back for the service alone. I placed my order over the phone for pick up, and the gentleman that answered was beyond the most helpful and kind person. He was so grateful and kind for our purchase, and threw in some extra sauces. This is my first experience here and it deserves more than the 5 stars I can give!“

“Excellent breakfast tacos. The tortillas are fresh and not store bought. I thought I was going to take a while in the drive thru, but as soon as I pulled up someone came outside to my truck in the drive thru to take my order. Excellent customer service at the window as well. They only take cash FYI. The tacos were amazing as well.“

“Best Mexican restaurants in Waco I go there everyday for my coffee..“

“Best tamales ever pick up only salsa is awesome 🤤“

“Being from Chihuahua I am always looking for something that reminds me of home, they had amazing food and atmosphere, you can tell they work well as a team, we had huevos rancheros and their chips and salsa was a hit, the barbacoa burrito, chorizo and egg, let’s just say all of their food was made with Gods hands. Homemade tortilla set the bar high, amazing flavor. Will come back if in the area. Thank you to the staff and team. Bendiciones“

“they treat me like royalty“

“Best burritos in Waco TX.“

“If you haven't tried this street vendor you dont know what youre missing. You absolutely gotta take the time to enjoy anything he sells. Its a game changer. Boss leve“

“Best Mexican food I’ve ever had 10/10 no complaints. Even the napkin was soft lol“

“I just love the chicken fajita burrito“

“I've been eating from this place for over 2 decades now.... For a while I stopped because I moved but it's a must for me when I'm not eating at my parents'.

Their dishes, like the cactus in a red sauce with pork meat has that unique homemade flavor that you'd get if you lived in Mexico.

Their chicharrón is bomb and their pricing has been affordable considering a lot of factors.

They do offer a sitting area but it's not the most pleasant, either because of the heat or cold. I wouldn't recommend you plan eating there. It's cash only so, for some that's an inconvenience... It is for me at times.

Parking can be chaotic but expected because they are always busy.“

“Oh, this place is good. For like 20$ we got quesobirra tacos and a huge carne asada quesadilla both were amazing. The guys running it were so nice and we didn't wait more than a few minutes for our mountain of food. Definitely check this place out.“

“LOS HUARACHES Y LOS TACOS“

“Good service good food and fair prices“
