    The food was amazing! Homemade tortillas, great flavor, and reasonable price. Definitely try it out, you won't regret it.

    I'm from New Mexico and know a few things about Mexican food. Walking into Taqueria is like…read morestepping into a vibrant Mexican street market, where the air is alive with the smoky scent of carne asada grilling over open flames and the warm, comforting aroma of freshly made tortillas. Each taco bursts with layers of flavor--the tender, marinated meats perfectly balanced by bright cilantro, sharp onions, and fiery, homemade salsas that dance on the tongue. That's it and all there should be except for a spritz of lime. The textures--from the crisp edges of slow-cooked carnitas to the juicy sweetness of al pastor--create a symphony of taste that feels both timeless and deeply rooted in tradition. Every bite tells a story of heritage, passion, and authenticity, making Taqueria a true celebration of Mexico's rich culinary soul. We'll be back soon.

    Stopped by while in the area for lunch. I was warmly greeted and offered any seat I wanted. My…read moredrink and food order were promptly taken. I ordered 3 taco special, Pastor with rice and beans. Horchata to wash it all down. My drink arrived promptly and my meal came shortly after that. The tacos were good, not great but better than some in the area. The beans and rice lacked much in flavor but were not bad. The hotchata leaned a bit towards the sweet side. A good experience but since it is kinda far away from my usual stomping ground. I won't be back for some time.

    Went to try a new restaurant. Being Tuesday, we chose Mexican. Taco Tuesday. Located in a strip…read moremall, it can be easily overlooked. Unimpressive from the outside. Inside, we were immediately, warmly greeted and seated. Simple decor. The booths looked hand-carved as we have seen made in Mexico. Pleasant and artistic. Not overdone. We both got the Taco Special. $3 each. Chips & salsa arrived. The salsa was unusual. Made on site. The tomatoes and ingredients were smoked and grilled. Greenish in color, it was beyond delicious with a slight smoky flavor. Never had anything like it. Flavorful and not hot spicy. We also ordered Queso which was also delicious and just the right temperature and consistency. The soft corn tacos arrived. They seemed small although completely filled with pork, chicken, beef, cilantro, and veggies. Delicious. Great flavor. Every bite. The plates were beautiful and looked like they were handmade. Add a cold Mexican Larger in a mug and it was a perfect lunch. The service was excellent. Attentive but not intrusive. Polite. Mannered. We will be back to this local family owned restaurant for sure. I highly recommend this place. We are looking forward to trying "Happy Hour" with $3 margaritas served in beer mugs.

    We've tried this place a couple of times and it's been decently good each time. We have a friend…read morewho raves about this place, but hasn't made the same selections as we have, so maybe it's just about choices. I'll give you our short list of hits and misses. Mostly Hits *Magic Chicken was good - if you're a local, El Tucan served a slightly better/fresher version of this dish. Still very good and happy to know where to find it locally. *Birria Tacos were good. Less salty than some of the ones we've had on the island, but less flavorful than some too. Right down the middle. *Service makes both lists since we had 2 and they were polar opposites of one another for us on our last visit. Definite Misses *Salsa was meh. Asked for their spicy salsa next and it was also meh. Not horrible, just ok. Chips were firm and less salty than we like. *Margarita...was not a margarita. It was 90% sour mix and a maybe a splash of something. It wasn't on the menu. When asked, we got a weird non-committal response on it from the server and we pretty much got what we expected when a Mountain Dew looking drink arrived in a beer mug with a straw. Might've been a premixed margarita or one of those malt liquor ones (like the cheap Fireball ones). *Service was spotty. We'll probably go back at some point and try some friend recommendations when we do - fingers crossed. We weren't upset with anything we tried, but we weren't wowed either. Lots of local choices to consider....

    As someone originally from Cali, I don't hand out compliments on Mexican food lightly, and Mexico's…read moreGrill absolutely delivered. The salsa could have used a little more heat for my taste, but the flavor was delicious and the chips were fresh. I ordered the Fajita Burrito with al pastor and green sauce... absolutely incredible. The al pastor was packed with flavor, and that green sauce took it to another level. We also ordered the elote, which absolutely hit the spot. I haven't had a really good elote in far too long. My husband ordered the Carne Asada plate and loved it. I had to steal a bite, and wow... the flavor on that steak was incredible. It was tender, perfectly seasoned, and easily one of the highlights of the meal. Our food arrived quickly, was served nice and hot, and every ingredient tasted fresh. They even prepare their guacamole tableside, which is always a nice touch and speaks to the quality of the experience. Our server, Olivia, was phenomenal. She was friendly, attentive, and made us feel genuinely welcome throughout our meal. The restaurant itself is super cute inside, and the value is exceptional. The portions are generous, the quality is outstanding, and the prices were surprisingly affordable. In fact, the prices listed on Yelp were actually higher than what we paid at the restaurant. Finding $4 street tacos this close to the beach, especially with this level of quality and portion size, was a pleasant surprise. I always appreciate getting an amazing meal without feeling like I overpaid, and Mexico's Grill absolutely delivered. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Cocoa Beach. Highly recommend!

    Coming from California, we didn't expect to find such an authentic Mexican restaurant in Florida,…read moreso this place was such a surprise. You can truly taste the difference, the chips and tortillas are made fresh locally and everything tasted authentic. The service was amazing. The owner came by to say hello and check on us, which made the experience welcoming. We were also lucky enough to visit while they had a live performer playing music, and it made the whole atmosphere feel special. Great food, great service, and such a fun experience. Highly recommend if you're looking for authentic Mexican food and a warm atmosphere!
