50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Chatham

“Wonderful people, great food. Always an enjoyable experience!“

“Delicious for eating in or taking out. I prefer to eat at this beautiful restaurant if I have the time. As I vegetarian I appreciate the delicious veggie entrees, and the complementary chips and salsa are wonderful!“

“Delicious food and so nice and friendly! The best quesadilla’s I have ever had!!“

“Tried their dessert - love chips - amazing!“

“Very delicious food. Stopped by in the evening looking for a quick bite. I ordered the shrimp tacos and the al pastor which are my two favorite types of tacos. Both tasted really great, however the al pastor had a much better flavor overall.
I also tried the chips and salsa. Chips tasted like they are fried in house (in a good way) I didn't love the salsa too much. The texture and flavor was a little off for me. Maybe there are beans blended in? Not worth docking a star for this because overall I really enjoyed my meal and will be back again.
Atmosphere is very nice as well. The decor is welcoming and the staff was really friendly as well.“

“My friends and I had a fantastic time here and will definitely be coming back soon! Be sure to check out their specials!“

“We're local business owners in Springfield, NJ and just discovered Tierra Del Sol as a wonderful spot for lunch!

Friendly greeting when we walked in, quick table service and the food is fresh and very flavorful! We each had Quesadilla's de Carne Asada (Steak) - and the serving sizes were big, we each only ate half and too the rest home.

We will most definitely be back soon!“

“First time checking out Tortas Lokas in Fairfield and my husband and I are both happy to have found this spot! The Tortas and Flan were amazing. A big thank you to our server Marilin and chef Pancho for making this a great experience. We will definitely be back 🙏🏽“

“Drinks and music is great“

“The food was fantastic. The burrito, nachos, and kids meal have great value for your money. Along with the kids meal came chips. Although very crispy and fresh, they had a little bit too much salt. Apart from that, everything was fantastic from the service to the place it self. Highly recommend.“

“I recently had my daughter’s Bridal shower here and the food, drinks, service and atmosphere were excellent! I would definitely recommend Nom if you are looking to host a private event.“

“Ive been going here for years for mainly for the burritos. Originally it was for the breakfast burritos and now it's for their firebird lunch burrito. They are always tasty,huge and reasonably priced. Under $10 for a gigantic burrito? What is this 2010?“

“🤩⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🤩 Recommend you all to stop by and eat their Jus’antastic tacos“

“We chose La Colina Mexican Cantina in Warren NJ to celebrate 3 birthdays on 4/5/25. We were a party of 12 & tried a few of the beautifully crafted cocktails that were out of this world and so tasty we had to order more. We began our feast with a couple of platters of Nachos El Gordo that were huge and absolutely delicious and went perfectly with the chosen wines, margaritas, and assorted cocktails our family ordered. The cocktails were of the beautiful quality that we've only seen on TV during cooking shows or restaurant series. The edible flowers and the smoke emitting drinks were amazing. We were served by a wonderfully friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive waitress. She was able to answer every question and had plenty of patience for our crowd who were amazed by the menu. Especially the "Smart" menus that detail each item at the flip of your finger. What an upscale & impressive touch that is. After we ordered our entrees we enjoyed more cocktails and had some time to talk and enjoy the unbelievable decor that seemed to have an endless amount of thought and class put into the decor of this authentic Cantina. The service was beyond excellent and our meals came out hot and enticing and as pleasing to the eyes as it was to our pallets. This was authentic delicious, beautiful meals that made the party seem like were were enjoying fantastic Cantina style food right in Mexico. I highly recommend the burritos, enchiladas, the Mexican Caesar salad, fajitas and I'm sure that rest of the menu has to be outstanding if everything the 12 of us had was that delicious. Besides the wonderful service, drinks, food and authentic atmosphere, topping the celebration off was when the owner came over to our table , introduced himself and made sure everything was as fabulous as possible. Believe me it was. Then the Head Chef came out and asked if everything up to our expectations to which we all agreed this place out did every single Mexican restaurant we've ever been to. I highly recommend La Colina in Warren NJ and I know you won't be disappointed in the food , atmosphere or the service. We surely will be back !!!!“

“I live in the area and love trying out local restaurants, Taquerua La Casita did not disappoint. The atmosphere was great, wel lit and busy. Its a small place, but small places tend to be masters of their craft. I got two orders of tacos, tacos al pastor and tacos de costilla (recommended by the employee working he counter). Both were great, fresh and bold flavors. The pastor came with a slice of pineapple on top which was a nice touch. I really enjoyed the Verde sauce that came with the order. I will definitely return in the future. Thanks for the awesome food. I want to try every item on the menu 🙂“

“Delicious with excellent service.“

“Food is delicious, my favorite are the Tacos Al Pastor they really taste like authentic Mexican tacos! All staff is super friendly!“

“Always our favorite Mexican food spot in HarrisonCounty!“

“I had an amazing experience here! The food was absolutely delicious — every dish was full of flavor and beautifully presented. The service was top-notch; the staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel truly welcome. Prices were very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. Overall, a fantastic dining experience. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“It’s funny that some of the reviews here complain about servers not speaking English...it’s an actual authentic Mexican restaurant what do you expect? The menus are in both English and Spanish and have descriptions if you are not familiar with Mexican food. I love this place and you really can’t beat the prices. The food is great and I always wind up taking some home (maybe because I fill up on all the chips and salsa they give before the meal).“

“Last night I had the pleasure of dining at Maize Cocina & Cocktails in Westfield, NJ — and let me tell you, if you love Mexican food and crave an elevated dining experience, this is the spot! 🌮✨

Everything was incredible, but my favorites were the maize croquettes, crabmeat tostadas, and the whole fish adobo — absolutely delicious. They’ve also added some exciting new dishes like the Tamarind Sticky Duck Breast and Pork Chop Amarillo that you’ll definitely want to try.

If you’re planning a visit, go between Thursday and Sunday — those are their action days! Trust me, if you’re looking for a great vibe and even better food, Maize is the place to be. 🍹🔥“

“We eat here almost every day. The food is always made to order so it does take a few miinutes. The food is delicious, I have never had anything I did not enjoy. Mr. C is always making sure we are happy with what he has prepared for us. Sometimes he will add his own little touch once he gets to know you and what you like. He will make great suggestions if you are not sure what you would like. The girls at the counter are great! This is a small hidden gem!“

“Phenomenal Tacos! I bet everything else is equally delicious but I love these tacos!!“

“Good place to go great food“

“El desayuno salvadoreño estuvo delicioso y fresco. La atención fue muy buena. Recomiendo este lugar!!! The food is so delicious and the service was amazing 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼“

“We were looking for a place to eat and ended up coming here by chance.
Our server Fausto was suuuuper nice and friendly, made us feel very welcome.
The music was good and not too loud (big plus!!)
I’m not very familiar with this cuisine, so I just ordered what sounded good, and everything was really delicious!

Overall, great experience. Would definitely recommend and come back again🩷“

“Fandango’s street tacos are awesome. We took a tray of these to a New Year’s Eve party in Glen Ridge and they were a big hit!“

“Food was delicious but if you have a dairy allergy beware of the butter used in the rice and vegetables!!!!“

“yep good food ill come back for sure“

“I like to go to this mexican / tex mex restaurant. The food is always fresh and they quick on serving your food. Also the flavor of the dishes are really yummy. And the breakfast is a kick to start your day. Specially the torta de milanesa which is my favorite“

“Great food and service. Varied menu. Large amount of seating inside and a good amount outside. The food is reasonably priced for downtown south orange. Family friendly.

Kid-friendliness: They have high chairs and food kids typically will eat“

“Went here for dinner tonight the first time. Food was absolutely amazing. Stephanie was our host/server and she was fantastic at recommendations. Food was delicious. Will definitely make this my new Spanish go to restaurant. The Salvadorian Chicken Tamale was moist and dense, and the flavors mixed perfectly together. If you order the beef empanadas, ask them for their new homemade hot sauce. It's a perfect blend of sweet & heat to go with the pastry dough. Their plantains were a good addition of sweet to the dense of the meal. Their flan was the perfect size for a nice ending dessert to a very filling meal. Definitely a highly recommended place to get an excellent and very affordable meal.“

“Great food, great workers, amazing portion sizes.“

“Wow!!! What can’t I not say about this place , the decor was incredible you can see that the place has history. I felt like going back home and changing my out for this place is amazing ! The service was Superb, we didn’t have to ask our waiter or waitress for anything we were constantly attended to . The food was great and the portions are are great. I went with my fiancé and daughter so I always order family style , so we had a little of everything . I know it’s cold out but I love a good frozen margarita and it was perfect . Also at the end Jolie , the owner/daughter of the owner also , offered us some free shots of RED CADILLAC TEQUILA , that’s made from them by them . It was very soothing . We’re actually gonna go back in a date night for the live music . Can’t wait !“

“Gracias por brindarme la mejor atención en su Restaurante mamis cosina y gracias a esas manos qué cosina tan Rico su sabor es delicioso“

“Walking through the beautiful town of Morristown, I stumbled across Tacoria - Mexican Street Kitchen, a one of a kind and delicious twist on a classic Mexican menu. Today I had the burrito bowl and it truly was one of a kind; as soon as taking the first bite, this bowl takes you back as if you were traveling back to Mexico City. The staff were amazing and the environment truly is amazing, from the decorations when you walk in to the amazing ambiance of the bathroom. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back!“

“Our community has been asking for a bakery for years …I stopped in to try their cookies they were delicious … I will definitely go back to try more…Good Luck & GOD bless in your new location & Thank you for investing in our town ‼️“

“Great tequila selection 👍 Sebastian, the bartender was fantastic.“

“La comida está muy bien. Tiene bien servicio. Lo recomiendo“

“Friendly service, delicious fajitas, homemade guacamole, shrimp tacos, and chicken soup were some of my favorites!!“

“All made fresh! Delicious“

“I've driven past this spot so many times & I regret not trying them out sooner. The breaded chicken torta was every bit of comforting & even more flavorful. I thought I was getting a quick bite at the end of a long day, and it was so much more. Worth every cent.“

“Delivery Order: Food arrived on time and packaged well. Taste and quantity was pretty good for the price. Chilaquiles is usually by go to order when trying a new Mexican restaurant and while it was definitely good it was not the best I have tasted so knocked off 1 star.“

“Fantastic food. Unbelievable lunch specials (until 2:30). Regular menu offers anything you might want, but it is a bit pricey and worth it. BYO. Last time we did that we shared our home made sangria with the staff. We made friends for life. This is going back to 1997 for that incident. Go! And enjoy“

“amazing place great food will go back“

“Best tacos ever and so much more. Innovative special each week.“

“I recently hosted my birthday dinner at Casa del Rey for a group of 20, and it was absolutely wonderful! The staff went above and beyond to make the evening special, from allowing us to decorate a beautiful table setup to their gracious hospitality and attention to detail. Everyone was so kind, accommodating, and genuinely welcoming. The food was delicious, the service was seamless, and the atmosphere made it feel like such a joyful celebration. I’m so grateful to the entire team for making the night unforgettable. Highly recommend Casa del Rey for any special occasion, they truly know how to make you feel celebrated! 🎂✨🤍“

“I've been in LH for a year and just got take out this evening. My burrito was so tasty! The chips and salsa were amazing. I will be back soon!“

“This spot is great! We love going here or getting take out. The patio is wonderful when the weather is nice. Service is always timely and the food is great, super reliable. We dined in the other night and our daughter (10 months) was starting to get restless and a staff member came out with a balloon for her. She was calm and happy and we were able to enjoy the rest of our meal. It was really thoughtful. I can’t recommend enough!“

“Food was pretty good. I had the chicken fajita, which gave a good portion, but did not come with sour cream or cheese. Thought that was extremely odd! Service was fairly slow for Mexican. Mexican food usually comes out as soon as the waiter goes out of line if sight. Can't with three for tortilla's, could have used five. Fairly pricey for a Mexican joint. I don't think the cost was appropriate for the food and service. Location expensive? Not sure. It wasn't too far from Newark Airport. Forgot photos“
