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!“

“Best pupusas in central Texas, I have found. It hidden in little neighborhood, but I’ve learned from spending a lot of time in El Salvador that those are often the best places to eat! Prices are good. They have both pupusas con arroz and masa. A rare find in this area. They also have Honduran and Mexican food. Woman was Salvadorean. Prices are reasonable. Big menu and they accept card and Venmo in addition to cash. Staff was super nice! A must try!“

“Ever since I tried this barbacoa taco 6+ years ago, I’ve been searching for it’s equal… Long story short, I’ve been making the trip back to Waco every time I visit Texas.

Bonus points because the staff are the nicest people!!“

“The tacos were perfectly seasoned, the torta melted in my mouth, and the salsas had just the right balance of heat and freshness.
The portion sizes were generous, and the prices were more than fair for the outstanding quality.This food truck is a hidden gem that deserves all the recognition. Whether you're a local or just passing through, do yourself a favor and stop here,you won’t regret it!“

“**Review: Best Kept Secret Mexican Sandwich Shop**This Mexican sandwich shop is truly a hidden gem and the best I’ve ever been to. The freshly made in-house bread is simply outstanding, setting a high bar with its perfect texture and flavor. Each sandwich is crafted with the best ingredients, ensuring a delightful and authentic taste experience. The humble and friendly people inside make every visit enjoyable. Supporting this small business means indulging in top-notch Mexican sandwiches while helping a local treasure thrive. Highly recommended!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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!“

“Best burritos in Waco TX.“

“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!!“

“Todo muy rico y muy amables! Food was delicious and friendly service!“

“The Torta de huevo(Mexican omelette)
It's awesome, has white cheese and onions mixed with eggs ,a slice of ham and potatoes, if you don't know what it's ask YouTube. You can add what you want on it, but the way the make it taste so good! It use to be in the menu, i think now you have to ask for it, but they will make it.“

“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!“

“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!!“

“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“

“I am diabetic with food allergies, and the Tax Firm I work for had their Admin Day lunch here yesterday. I had spoken to Ishmael last week to make sure they were able to work with my dietary restrictions. Ishmael and his staff went above and beyond, in my opinion.

“This place is amazing. Great corn. Takeout only, in a parking lot. Surprised at lack of reviews, place is always busy when I go. Maybe it's because all the locals know where the good food is at without needing Google reviews.The menu is very basic, just corn and corn with chips.“
