12 Best Mexican Restaurants in Jefferson City

“This place has some of the best Mexican food in Jeff city! Flavor was amazing and drinks were to die for. This has become a weekly place for me and the hubby.“

“The best tamales in our town! The food is as tasty as my mom and her mom would prepare in Jalisco. Not microwaved commercial food. ❤️“

“We have been eating La Dona every Tuesday! The staff is very welcoming! The food is absolutely delicious! I highly recommend trying out this restaurant!

Parking: This restaurant is located in a plaza that has lots of parking spaces.“

“We came here for the 1st time today. Christian was excellent. He was fast and checked on us several times to make sure we got what we wanted. Food was good, too.“

“Very nice quiet restaurant. Servers were extremely nice and everyone seemed to take pride in their job from the hostess to the waitress to the cook. The burritos were very delicious and the sweet tea wasn't extremely sweet but still southern sweet tea. I travel through Jefferson City fairly often and will definitely be stopping again.“

“This was a great find in Jeff City. We were only staying overnight and found this place on Google close to our hotel. The outside is very unassuming in the Jefferson strip mall. Once you walk in it's vibrant and colorful with beautiful tables and chairs.
On to the food... the chips are warm and the salsa is tasty. It came out within 30 seconds of sitting down. My wife and I ordered the Steak Fajitas for two which was around $25. I also ordered a single Carnita taco. The portions were very generous for the price and the food was flavorful. The service was friendly and quick. They have a well stocked bar with good prices. We did not get a drink this time. Our bill was only $32. Oh, they also have this fresh salsa bar for no additional charge I don't know if I'll have a need to be back in Jeff City but if I find myself here, I'll definitely come back to El Jimador. O highly recommend this place.“

“My family came on a Wednesday night. Initially we were thinking because its the middle of the week that it wouldnt be that busy. The parking lot was jam packed. We decided to go in anyways. Boy am i glad we didn the resurant is very lovely the staff is friendly and we didnt have to wait. Our food was out within 15 mins max. If youre looking for good fast food with a home cooked feel. This is the place.“

“First time WE go there & staff was friendly from the minute u walk in the door they greet u. Food good & fresh🙂 We’ll be back !“

“I usually get off work late and end up here if I or the wife doesn’t want to cook so it’s usually around 5-7pm before we come here most of the time. I want to shout out the closing staff!!! Awesome group of guys back there. The guy taking our order was very helpful and quick to respond and said “yes sir” after everything we said. Recently this closing staff has yet to ruin any piece of food ordered. You want no tomato’s? They’ll double check to make sure there are none. You want extra sour cream? You got it. These guys moves quick and listen to your order and seem to care about this place than the usual morning-early afternoon staff. I bet these guys are only getting paid $13-$15 to do all this. They deserve $18! 100% recommend going for dinner they’ll hook you up!“
