Mexican restaurants in North America

  1. A

    El Rey del Taco

    The first fish taco stand to open in Loreto; there's a reason this place is still going as strong as ever. Great carne asada and cabeza (head) tacos, too.

  2. Consuelo’s Taqueria

    Yet another facet of Manchester’s growing multiculturalism, Consuelo’s whips up satisfying tacos, burritos and quesadillas in a friendly, low-key environment.

    reviewed

  3. Café Noche

    Tex-Mex fare topped with real-deal salsas at this festive central Conway spot. The margaritas, in a head-spinning variety of flavors, will rev up the appetite.

    Los Colorines

    Specializing in la comida sabrosáor (simply put, ‘tasty food’), this is a big two-floor place, vibrantly painted and with a large menu of great Mexican home cooking.

    reviewed

    This is the place for marinated Mexican-style chicken, grilled or roasted over an open flame. Freshly made tortillas, salsa and other condiments accompany all orders.

    La Cantina

    La Cantina is a narrow place, makes a mean salsa tomatillo and has a pretty good bar. Brick walls and a press-tin ceiling lend this Mexican restaurant a friendly feel.

    This popular neighborhood taquería serves delicious, unpretentious fare, with a heavy emphasis on savory grilled meat, freshly made corn tortillas and heavenly salsas.

    La Roca

    Upscale La Roca serves a diverse menu of Sonoran and regional Mexican dishes in a low-light romantic setting under colonial archways – a world apart from the Nogales hurly-burly.

  13. G

    El Tlaquepaque

    Offering similar fare to El Parrian, this is an excellent family-style eatery concerned more with cooking up good, wholesome food than making money off the cruise-ship casualties.

    reviewed

  14. H

    Mara’s

    This brightly painted traditional restaurant has a great location. It offers a good range of meat, fish and chicken dishes, and patrons can catch an ever-so-welcome tropical breeze.

    reviewed

  15. I

    Alma

    The tequila-plus-setting crowd head to Alma, a rooftop spot with 20 tequilas, and dishes from $10. Food is standard Mex – good, not great – but the setting’s super.

    reviewed

  16. Panteón Taurino

    Olé! Charge into this museum- restaurant-bar to eat at the ‘crypts’ (read homages) of former famous toreros (bullfighters). No brave behavior, please – catch a cab at night.

    reviewed

    Super Taquería Hermanos González

    Whether it can maintain the reputation it acquired when it served its famous fish tacos from a street stand remains to be seen, now that it expanded. Odds are it will. Don't miss it.

    reviewed

  18. K

    El Rincón de Rivadavia

    This friendly, classy restaurant is set in a sweet courtyard near the Pyramid. The menu is classic poblano cuisine - try their mole, which they claim is the best in Cholula.

    reviewed

  19. L

    Taco La Furia

    For delicious carne asada and al pastor tacos try this giant taquería with outdoor seating. Don't mistake the next door indoor restaurant for this one.

    reviewed

  20. Hinde Kumanchikua

    After a drunken evening at Bar Rio you'll be eternally grateful for Uruapan's best late night taqueria. Munch beef chorizo or tacos al pastor, served with three fiery salsas.

    reviewed

  21. Rice & Beans

    At its namesake RV park, this established restaurant serves good food all day long; it's particularly handy if you just want to stop for a bite to eat without driving into San Ignacio.

    Fonda Orizatlán

    Eight blocks south of the center, the dated but colorful Fonda Orizatlán is locally renowned for its first-class Huasteca-style cuisine. Sunday afternoons feature folkloric dances.

    reviewed

  24. Plaza del Marisco

    Some argue this cluster of seafood taco stands along Blvd Costero has more reliable quality than those adjacent to the market itself. We found the difference negligible. Try 'em and see.

    Cantina del Refugio

    This all-out, festive Mexican place has hearty servings of reasonably-priced and tasty Mexican fare, grilled meats and draught beer (with all sorts of drinking deals depending on the day).

    reviewed

  26. O

    Riviera Villahermosa

    The Euro-Mex menu is pretty good, and the air-conditioned 4th-floor setting with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the river is spectacular. Steaks, seafood and pasta are all good here.

    Elvira's Restaurant

    Mexican folk art meets 2001: A Space Odyssey at this longstanding institution serving excellent Mexican classics (nine types of mole) with a free shot of tequila.
