8 Best Mexican Restaurants near Shepherdstown

“We were in the area visiting Harpers Ferry and were looking for a place to eat. We stumbled upon this place just a short drive away and decided to stop. It's a great little restaurant with a warm and welcoming vibe. The cashier was super friendly and our meals were made quickly. I had their fish tacos. I cannot recommend them enough! The sauce was excellent and the added crunch from the carrots and cabbage made the dish delicious! I highly recommend you stop here for a bite if you're in the area!“

“We've been to the original location in Charles Town a few times and figured we'd check this one out. It's a bit smaller and without as many colorful tables and chairs and other decor. It does add in a small patio which is lacking in the other location. The menu is quite similar if not identical and there are a wide variety of choices. On this recent trip I went with a burrito verde and was quite pleased. My wife had fajitas and was also very happy. Staff was friendly and overall a great outing.“

“Ashamedly I was biased about what the quality of Mexican or Tex-Mex food would be in West Virginia…..boy was I proven wrong. This place was incredible! Everything was delicious! Everything came out warm/hot with obviously fresh tasting ingredients that were well prepared! Even simple things like the refried beans or chips and salsa were very tasty! The frozen margarita was also delicious! 10/10 would recommend this place! Staff were also very friendly and professionally attentive and attired!“

“We love Ortega's! Wish we lived closer because we would hit them up so much more! Street tacos are amazing and made authentically. I try to avoid wheat as much as possible since it messes with my health so having the option of corn tortillas really makes me happy. ? We try and come early to get their breakfast menu too! Prices are on point even in this economy. ?“

“We got there just before closing time, my son, wife and two children, and my wife. The Carne Asada Michoacán was delicious pork meat with rice, refried beans and tortilla. Accompanied with a 22oz Frozen Margarita, splendid! The rest of the family had a variety of tacos. Service was great!Parking: Parking was spacious with plenty of spaces, but I've been told that it gets pretty full fast on weekends. We were all very pleased with the taste and quantity of food.“

“This place was great! We opted to drive an extra 35 minutes, past the local Mexican restaurant, to try this place instead... And we were SO GLAD we did. From the moment you walk in and see the awesome colorful decor, you're in for a treat. You're greeted and seated quickly, the very kind wait staff comes to check on you frequently, food comes quick, is DELICIOUS and portion sizes are seriously generous. We tried fajitas Texanas for two (huge!) Some dips and carnitas; all great. Can't wait to return to try literally anything else on the menu. Thanks for an excellent meal.“

“I’ve had the Burria tacos multiple times and they are just outSTANDING! High quality food for sure. Very fair pricing for the quality. The atmosphere is peaceful, clean, and comfortable. Very good bubble tea! 5/5 all day.Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly environment.“

“I recently hit up this awesome Mexican spot and let me tell you, it was a blast. The place was buzzing with energy, decked out in vibrant colors and playing lively tunes that got me in the mood for a feast. The aroma of spices and cooking hit me right away, promising some seriously good eats. Choosing from the menu was tough because everything sounded amazing, but I finally went for a classic dish that totally delivered. It was packed with flavor, and the portions were huge, so I definitely didn’t leave hungry.The vibe of the place was matched by the super friendly staff who made the experience even better. They were all about making sure I was having a great time, offering up recommendations and keeping my glass full. Speaking of which, the margaritas here? Absolute game-changers. It’s clear this spot isn’t just about the food...“
