13 Best Mexican Restaurants in Pahrump

“The food was great as usual. The daily specials menu was new to us and we both tried something new. Highly recommend trying the new specials.“

“As we prepare for our move to Pahrump, we’ve been exploring some of the local food spots, and Johnny’s came highly recommended. We’re so glad we gave it a try! From the moment we walked in, the service was warm and welcoming. The cashier and waitress had a bright smile and was incredibly accommodating with our special requests.

My husband and I can be pretty picky when it comes to Mexican food, but Johnny’s exceeded our expectations. The food was made from scratch with high-quality ingredients, and best of all, it wasn’t greasy. Every bite was full of flavor, and the portions were generous for the price.

One of the biggest surprises was our daughter, who normally doesn’t care for Mexican food—she absolutely loved it! In fact, Johnny’s has quickly become one of her favorite restaurants, which speaks volumes about how good the food is.

The atmosphere wasn’t anything spectacular, but it was very clean and had a cozy, welcoming feel. We’re not sure if the man cooking was Johnny himself, but he came out to check on us, and he was just as friendly as the rest of the staff—funny and genuinely interested in our experience.

Johnny’s To Go has definitely earned a spot on our list of favorite local restaurants! We’ll be back for more.“

“9/26/24

My husband & I went for lunch. We shared the chicken fajitas for one. The portions are huge. The fajitas are flavored to perfection. The tortillas are amazing, and the chips & salsa are spot on. The service was wonderful, too.“

“When in town, this is my spot. The food is made fresh and on point when it comes to taste and quality. Staff are great.
Had an order that was messed up a while back and returned to receiving no lip service and was the item was replaced. Very rare nowadays. This place is it when it comes to Mexican food!“

“Best Mexican in Pahrump by far.“

“Everything is so flipping good. Not sure if I love the Shrimp Tacos or the Barbacoa the best, maybe the Al Pastor. I know it's selfish , but I'm kind of happy they aren't super well known, at least for the 3 tables. Please place order and take it to go. However I do make sure all my friends know about them. Wishing them all the success they can handle. Thanks for the yummy food.“

“They really need to find the new cook since their old one quit. They are advertising to hire one. Today eggs were burnt, hash browns like charcoal. Was horrible“

“I tried the chicken fajitas today, 8/12/24 . The food was absolutely fabulous. The flavor was phenomenal. The chips & salsa are wonderful & fresh. I believe those chips are made fresh daily. I will definitely be back. I heard the pancakes are wonderful, I will have to try those next.“

“Worst chicken quesadilla I've ever had. Carne asada fries slap though. I've eaten here many times and have had some good dishes-that's why it's a four star thing. Really, don't order the chicken quesadilla- it's pretty gross.“

“Totally worth the stop!! The food was EXCELLENT and the prices can't be beat! After hiking in Death Valley NP all day we were ready to eat. My husband has been wanting tamales the entire time we've been out west, so this was perfect to stop i
on our way to Vegas. We could hear our guac being freshly prepared and it was delicious! Everything was fresh & yummy! The actual restaurant is very small and unassuming, but clean & tidy. I'm sad we won't be able to go back since we live in Ohio.“

“Just ate here on Sunday. Delicious Mexican food, authentic, not just burritos with beans and rice. Shrimp cocktail good, sauce a little thin. Crispy tacos, Good tostadas. Will go again to try other things. A little pricey and restaurant is noisy.“

“I was at the newly opened Chipotle in Pahrump on Jan 11th. I had never experienced a Chipotle Grill before. The employees were very helpful and the food was great. I will be back very soon. Thank You“

“It's Taco Bell. You know what you're getting food wise. Service is quick and accurate. I always drive thru and my orders have always been correct. That's pretty amazing considering the McDonald's across the street finds this nearly impossible.“
