39 Best Mexican Restaurants in Fullerton

“Love this place. It ticks every box:

✅️ Great food
✅️ Great service
✅️ Great value
✅️ Easy parking

You won't be disappointed if you go, but unfortunately no one is going there now. I hope they have a good lease agreement, because I don't see how they can survive at this location. So enjoy it now while it lasts people!“

“Tienen un maravilloso servicio al cliente i la comida está riquísima los recomiendo al 100%“

“The best tacos! We love this place. Service is great and the prices are reasonable. The food is fresh and made to order.“

“Great service, AMAZING FOOD. As a mexican, I can say with full confidence they had the best green chilaquiles I've ever had. I took them to go and ate them when I got home 30 min later. Still the best thing ever. I can't imagine if I ate them warm and fresh inside the restaurant. Also, the horchata was SOOOO good. It's made fresh by one of the ladies in the restaurant. I've never had horchata made with banana before and I feel like my life is changed LOL. I believe the restaurant is woman owned. Dude was cooking our stuff fresh in the back too so it took a little while to get the food but worth the wait. We ended up going back the next day. Good prices.“

“Great spot for weekend brunch! Pineapple mimosa! 😘“

“It’s consistently good. Friendly family vibe..“

“We stumbled upon Riveras after completion of a swim meet. Not being from this area (we are from Edmonton Canada) we decided to take a chance. So glad we did. 2 hungry teenage boys with us we filled up on various tacos and chips and guacamole. Everything was beyond delicious and filling. I have been craving fish tacos since we hit the border. I was not disappointed! So yummy. Service was fast and friendly and price was great. Definitely make your way to Riveras Fresh Tacos. We be heading there again before we head back north of the border :)“

“The staff is very friendly & flexible .The food was very good 👍🏻 😊.But the restaurant was very cold, even the restrooms. Thank you 😊“

“This place has some of the best Mexican-style chicken in Orange County at reasonable prices. Don't be fooled by the unassuming atmosphere and limited menu - this place focuses like a laser on chicken and does it well. I was surprised that potato salad was included with my meal and even more surprised that it was excellent. Even though there was only one person behind the counter service was fast and attentive. The restaurant was clean and tidy including the restroom.“

“Love finding new taco joints. Poncho's didn't disappoint! Great flavor, great selections on a small and manageable menu. Do what you do, and do it well. Enjoyed a great selection of al pastor, chorizo, and carnitas tacos. The al pastor was amazing. Great salsa bar...and you get fresh chips and salsa at your table while you wait. At a small taco shop? Yep!
Anyway...great place. I'll be back soon.“

“Delicious Fresh pozole and menudo everyday!
A huge Mexican food menu as well as a Americana menu. Family owned and operated.
Taco Tuesday deals. Famous breakfast burritos and a cult like following for their Chile Verde (spicy) carne.“

“First time at this restaurant, super fire 🔥 tacos and the restaurant in General the food is good“

“Great Music. Danced all night. Until next time. OC“

“Came down to visit family for a convention this week I’ve never been to this spot but I was craving something filling for the 2 days! and this spot did the job, filled me up all day 😂 day 1 I wasn’t hungry until 4pm and day 2 ima get another one
Chorizo, papas, cheese and egg! Super bomb! 🌯 when I visit again and don’t need a breakfast to hold me off I’ll definitely try a different plate!“

“The food was good and the service was very good“

“My first time here at your location in Puente Hills CA. My waiter Jesus is a very awesome waiter. Thank you for attending me with excellent service.“

“Every time we come here, I try not to load up on the chips with beans and cheese... THEN WE ORDER AN EXTRA PLATE!!! Tonight, I had the huarache con carnitas and my bebe had the machete; soooo gooood!!! Our favorite Mexican restaurant in Fullerton #PERIODTTTTTTT“

“The bk breakfast burrito is hands down the best I’ve had around Fullerton. potato wedges, bacon,sausage were all perfectly crispy. no soggy hash browns here. That burrito was cooked exactly how I like it. Also the best Al pastor in town, wood/charcoal grill up front to give that Smokey flavor“

“Everything is great at Nick's I hear. Im kinda stuck on the Ch Burgers and Fries. The whole bunch of them are super cool and go out of there way to make sure your happy.. The touch up you made to the store the last few years are nice. Thanks so much for being the best in Town.“

“el cocinero un güero muy amable apenas nos miro nos saludo muy amable mente. el pollo me lo dio a mi gusto como a mi me gusta un joven gringo muy amable .....no puedo de sir lo mismo de la mujer que estaba trabajando ..le dijimos gracias y ni siquiera nos contesto... el lugar muy limpio !!!“

“Why 4 stars?
Because this place knows exactly what it is. Molca Salsa is a solid late night junk food hero. It is open when you need it, it hits the spot, and it is actually good.

Is it going to impress a date? No. Is it going to become your favorite spot or something you brag about? Also no.

But if it is after the club, you are starving, and you want something tasty, messy, and full of regret, congratulations. You made it.

This is comfort food with zero judgment. Sometimes that is exactly the assignment.“

“amazing food amazing atmosphere“

“Todo muy bien pero El mesero se tardó mucho en atenderme“

“I was pleasantly surprised by how generous the servings were, even with a basic taco order. Everything was presented beautifully and the portions were very satisfying. The meat was flavorful and paired perfectly with the fresh sides like carrots, radishes, chiles, and salsas. Overall, the meal was outstanding and absolutely worth it.“

“super awesome and helpful staff! I'll definitely be returning.“

“Delicioso tacos y burritos“

“It very frienly custumes service emloyes go above cleanneess“

“la comida excelente pero las 3 veces que hemos hido acomer a este lugar tiene muy mal servicio me refiero a las meseras te llevan la comida y jamaz regresan,a ver si se ofrece algo,nos quedamos sin soda,nos faltaban tostadas pero la mesera ni sus luces y como que enojadas se si eso les parecerá normal pero cada fin semana que vamos a diferentes restaurantes los meseros primeramente te saludan,checan que no falte nada en la orden y como lo dije las 3 veces ha pasado lo mismo le dije al muchacho que estaba de cajero y el si muy amablemente me dijo que hablara con la mesera con nos atendió, le pondré las 5 estrellas porque la verdad está muy rica la comida y muy fresco todo“

“great food and affordable prices“

“Servers Val, Fernando and owner Fernando were overly exceptional! The service was welcoming, friendly, and professional. They took care of me and my family as if we were their own! We appreciate them and we cannot wait to return! Food and drinks were delicious! 10/10“

“Rikisimo la comida y las empleadas muy amables.!! Y“

“The taquitos here with guacamole and cheese are killer. They have a good green salsa with a little kicks and the red one has a good amount of spice to it. Drive through is open until 3am so if you have the late late night munchies this is the spot.“

“The food here just keeps getting better and better! Our party of 5 ordered the carnitas tacos, fried brussel sprouts, a gnocchi special, ceviche, the pork pibil, and pork belly taco. Everything was super flavorful, fresh, excellently prepared and well presented. We will keep coming back again and again1“

““Wow” Monday I went to restaurant and pre-ordered 20 meals for my guests who were going to be celebrated by daughters 2 year birthday. Mayra was great, friendly & professional but there was a misunderstanding on the date. Which of course I feel terrible about! But they accommodated my order for the correct date! Everyone enjoyed the food. Especially the bass fish with vegetables and rice plate! Fancy for 12.00. Large portions too!“

“The food was absolutely delicious! Big portions, and I didn't have to wait long for my food. I ordered Torta de Pollo, Azteca Tacos, Birria Taco, and a very refreshing Agua fresca. My understanding is that this restaurant is under new ownership. I met the new owner, his name is Carlos, and I also met his sister Lily they are both very nice people. I would definitely come back again, but this time to try their Menudo!“

“Just wanted to say it's a small market but some prices are hella expensive then it should tbh but I go for cheap items. Mayonnaise is 10 over there, while somewhere else, it's 6. I just got basic stuff, so I'm ok, but some prices are crazy to me“
