Mexican restaurants in USA

  1. Rocco's Tacos & Tequila Bar

    This saucy Nuevo Mexican restaurant, in the heart of West Palm's Clematis St, is not your typical taqueria. Under the warm twinkle of funky chandeliers enjoy guacamole prepared tableside, fresh-made ceviche, or a range of tacos from pork to mushroom to cactus paddle. And, oh yeah, there are 175 different kinds of tequila to choose from. Just remember the immortal words of George Carlin: one tequila, two tequila, three tequila, floor!

    Tortilleria Mexicana Los Hermanos

    Tortilleria Mexicana Los Hermanos, does fantastic Mexican – try the carne asada. The factory out back is incredible, all the workers laboring over big machines, cranking out tortillas all day.

  3. Edchada's

    Opinions vary on the food at this standard-issue Mexican eatery, but the margaritas are huge and you certainly won't leave hungry. Look for lunch specials.

  4. Gloria's

    Plantains, black beans and yucca are big players on the El Salvadorian Mexican menu. Gloria's has done so well that it's expanded to several local venues.

    Museum Hill Café

    Despite having a captive audience on Museum Hill , the café serves excellent salmon en papillote (around US$9), New Mexico and Navajo-inspired fare.

  6. Señor Pedro's

    Señor Pedro's is the place to go for cheap Mexican eats. It serves plentiful if uninspired grub just across the street from the mission entrance.

    Tacos de Acapulco

    Your best bulk-up budget option is this taquería (taco joint) serving huge burritos. The food's good and plenty popular with students.

  8. La Fonda

    Cheaper still is La Fonda, across from Bakersfield High School, where tasty, fresh tacos are just around US$1 (get three or four, as they're small).

    A small Mexican restaurant that serves decent tamales, chile relleno and, of course, a Nacho Supreme. If only they had a license to serve beer.

    Mi Nidito

    When it comes to Tucson's two most popular Mexican restaurants, El Charro may have more customers, but Mi Nidito can claim celebrities like Bill Clinton and Enrique Iglesias, plus a somewhat cozier location. Ol' Bill's order at 'My Little Nest' has become the signature president's plate, a heaping mound of Mexican favorites – tacos, tostadas, burritos, enchiladas and more – groaning under melted cheese. Give the prickly pear cactus chili or the birria (spicy, shredded beef) a whirl. Solo diners beware – the loudspeaker will boldly announce your name followed by 'party of one' when they're ready for you.
