19 Best Mexican Restaurants near Medford

“Why aren't we yelling from the rooftops about this place!?These are THE BEST EMPANADAS I HAVE EVER HAD! (Look at my profile - I know what I'm talking about.)The empanada dough is exceptional. The frying was perfect, wonderfully crispy, but also, it has this wonderfully chewy bite, almost like a great pizza crust. We chose the pulled chicken. It was tender and floral with spices. I could smell the cumin. The balance was unreal. If there was a salsa Verde (or Pico) to add some citrus.... oh man...I also loved the Camarones a La Mexicana. This is a spicy shrimp dish. It was (almost) stewed pepper onions and (I'm guessing) seranos. The heat is balanced but present. The shrimp, perfectly cooked. I piled all of it onto a tortilla. Again, had there been a cooling agent to top it with... it would be untouchable.The chicken soup is outstanding. It's almost a stew because it's so generously thick with potatoes, chicken, celery, and onions. Came with rice to bulk it up!A few notes: the "crunchy" taco is a flauta, piled high with "salad" and crema. They were good. The salad adds the acid, the crema was bountiful.My only hang-up was the salsa and chips. The chips are homemade, awesome! But the salsa ... it was a total miss for me. It reads sweet - and then sour and finally smoky from Chipotles. I didn't like it all. It was like ketchup.Oh!!! AND BREAKFAST ALL DAY!Otherwise- go here. Get full. This is like going to your families house to get stuffed with balanced, old-school, much repeated, tried, and true recipes.“

“Spent a little more than my normal on this lunch but it was worth every penny. Shared the Octopus Mango Ceviche appetizer which was more than enough for two and it was perfection. House burger with their special fries and the Mole Poblano Chicken Enchiladas were outstanding. I was already quite stuffed but the draw here was the churros. Crispy with just the right amount of cinnamon sugar topped off this beautiful pre-spring day in Medford.“

“We went for Cinco de Mayo and they had a limited menu for this day. The food was excellent, Everybody was really friendly. The only downside was even though there seem to be a huge staff on hand service was extremely slow. We were there two hours. All things considered that was minor because we had an excellent time and the food was fantastic. We will definitely be back.“

“I get take out from here every week. The best authentic Mexican tacos in the area! The have great daily specials too. Everything, including their tortillas are homemade. I had their Molle chicken special and it was amazing. I’m looking forward to trying their fajitas too.“

“Dave, Justin, Sam, Kiera, and Zac are absolutely stellar servers and bartenders. Despite how busy the restaurant becomes, each team member provides exceptional service. The food and drink menu items are unparalleled, but the service is what keeps me coming back. I highly recommend this restaurant because the staff is spectacular and the service is of consistently high quality.“

“I was craving Birria Tacos and my daughter told me about Maria’s so I gave them a try and let me just tell you, I will not get them from anywhere else from now on!!! Super friendly staff, adorable dining room and decor and next time I’m trying a churro milkshake!! Can’t wait to go back!“

“food was very good& authentic. it is a hole in the wall but food is amazing!! it took about 12ish mins for food (tacos&quesadilla). they where busy with pickup orders the entire time there but definitely got our order in a timely manner.“

“Wings are always on point and very good. One of the best I've had in South Jersey. Fries are pretty good also especially if you eat in. Classic dive bar with solid bar food up and down. Only knock is having to ask for extra sauce when ordering so they have a good amount on them.“

“Excellent food and service. The enchiladas were delicious, and the elote corn cup was perfect. Best Mexican food in the greater Mt Holly/Lumberton area.Vegetarian options: Most items (enchiladas, quesadillas, etc.) are available as vegetarian dishes.“

“Literally the best bagel I’ve ever had! I can see this place franchising itself and expanding quickly Everything is perfect price, portion size, presentation, new product lines not found everywhere. Only draw back it’s so hidden.“

“I ventured into this Restaurant because the people in the streets told me the selections of food and taste is fantastic. and boy, they were right. everything was really good snd service was excellent.“

“The food is outstanding and the homemade desserts are delightful. One of the best new places, serving Mexican style takeout. The owner of Los Gordos Rosticeria Deli in Berlin is a sweetheart! She creates delicious dishes daily, that has something special for everyone.“

“Ordered here through DoorDash. Portions was good minus the guac. $5 for this small thing that didn't even come with chips. Salsas had great flavor, the birra taco was the winner of the show. Rice could use some more favor. The nachos were buy one get one free so we figured why not. Great portion, thick chips so they were not soggy. Chicken was a little dry but we just added some sour cream and it was fine. The esquite was also very good - would definitely get that again!“

“Pancheros is the kind of burrito restaurant you go to when you want a big burrito loaded with all fresh ingredients prepared in-house. They make fresh tortillas right in front of you and I like burritos big enough to stop traffic with, so they happily use a second tortilla so it doesn't break. If I'm at a fork in the road and one way leads to Pancheros and the other way leads to any other burrito joint, I'm going to Pancheros!Vegetarian options: They only put in your burrito what you choose to put in it. If you don't eat meat, don't ask for meat. Simple.“

“I love the fresh made tortillas and eating delicious Mexican food, as well as supporting a local business on my hometown. #legionathome“
