What a little gem finding this place was. Considering location, I would never have expected what I walked into. A bunch of us girls were meeting for dinner, we had no reservations and plans to sit and eat and order drinks so we went at 3:45. They informed up this was a great idea since they were booked from 6pm on. By 6:20 it was getting busier, we asked multiple times if they needed us to move to the bar and each time was no, finish and enjoy. The service was great. Our meal was fantastic. Too! My waiter helped me make a decision on my meal. It's always refreshing when they approach with confidence to say, ask me about any dish. It showed his familiarity with the menu. If you read through my reviews I'm a sucker for a fish taco. While I'm not typically a battered fan, these didn't sit greasy or heavy. I wish there was a bit more slaw to offset the amazing chipotle cream sauce but it didn't deter me at all. While I don't have pictures I brought home food for the kids too. The tacos Al pastor were very flavorful, and the Mexican quesadillas was NOT what I expected but I also wasn't disappointed. It's more of a huge taco than your typical flour shell quesadillas. And the sauces given for each item packed so much flavor you really had the ability to build the profiles as you wanted. I will say however, if you are looking for traditional birria tacos, you may not want them here. While all the flavors were spot on, they felt more street taco and not griddle seared with consume The one thing I didn't love, and the universal complaint of the table, was the chunks of cilantro in the guac, now I'm a cilantro girl but we had full stem chunks that really weren't pleasant to chew through. Maybe this was an unusual thing and I'd try it again. I would definitely recommend hosting a shower, or party here cause for sure they had the space! Also, Thursday night is salsa night, they teach you then have the dance floor open. Reviews of that incoming! read more

I sat at the bar, and the bartender was very attentive. I had a red sangria, which was very good. He asked if I wanted to try the white sangria, which, of course, I did. It was also yummy. I ordered the Birria tacos to go, which I devoured at home in an instant. I'll go back. This restaurant is a neighborhood gem with good people and good service. I even practice my Spanish. Go for the music, good vibes, and food. Enjoy! read more

Found this hidden gem while husband and I were heading to a store in the Medford area. Right a way I began researching reviews on Yelp. Recognized one of my Yelp peeps, Bill S. Bill is very thorough and highly respected in the Yelp community so when I saw his 5 star review I was sold. Two hours later we were there. Walked in the clean spacious restaurant approximately 3pm on Sunday. It was quiet so we enjoyed each other's company at the bar. Absolutely love the pretty decor and the abundance of Mexican history. In every direction you are met with interesting artifacts, copied photographs and newspaper articles and so much more. The front window is decorated with healthy cactuses from California. I had the pleasure to meet one of the pleasant owners named Luis. He took me for a 15 minute tour and educated me on Mexican History. I truly appreciated that!!! We were warmly greeted by staff and immediately received colored nacho chips and homemade salsa. We complimented that with fresh guacamole and beautifully crafted margaritas. Absolutely perfect! Next we shared the chicken and steak fajita combo mix. Again, absolutely perfect. Served sizzling and delicious. Reasonably priced too! At the end we were presented with a tequila called Mezcal. If I heard this correctly it is a tequila that is baked in a rock lined pit over charcoal which gives it a smokey flavor. A first for us that we can aquire a taste for very guickly. What a delightful surprise to inadvertently find this amazing restaurant. The staff and service were so helpful and right on point. They cleary take pride in this establishment. Thank you Bill S. For highlighting this hidden gem. We will definitely return. Can't wait to try the tacos! Best wishes Little Mexico!! read more

wow..... I don't know where to start. I came here on a Sunday afternoon and what looked like around 3 waitress on the floor with around 4 tables. It was only me and my girlfriend. It took 30 minutes to get our drinks and we got them after we got our entrees. I got the mole poblano and when it arrived it was missing the rice and beans it was supposed to come with and after I mentioned it to the waitress she said she can give it to me to go. After tasting it I think they were doing me a favor by not putting it on my plate. The only redeeming quality of this very large, dark and depressing space was the drinks, granted they took a half hour to get to us in a not busy restaurant and the waitress had asked us multiple times what we ordered. I have worked in the restaurant industry for 9 years and I understand having a bad day but it looked like these waitress were walking around like a chicken with their head cut off with no sense of coordination. I very strongly suggest going to another truly mexican restaurant other than this one. After never ever posting a negative review on a restaurant, because I know this is how people need to get their money to survive. I truly see no other way on how the management will know how to change these things in their establishment. Have pride in your work and make sure your employees know what they are doing as they represent you whenever they are on the floor. read more

This has to be a fairly new Mexican restaurant in this area! When I go out with old coworkers, we usually look for a sit down Mexican restaurant. When we were trying to figure out a spot, we did a Yelp search and found that this was one we haven't been to yet! We decided to go on an adventure! Boy were we pleasantly surprised! Located in a little strip mall with ample parking, we walked in to a super trendy looking spot! There were not a lot of diners at the time we went, but I am constituting that to people not really know this place exists. Upon walking in you immediately come across an very open dining area with tables pretty far apart from each other. There was also a nice looking bar towards the front of the restaurant. The bar made me want to come back for happy hour...sadly they don't have a happy hour...that won't stop me from coming back to that bar...I digress. We ordered a round of drinks from the cocktail menu. They have an awesome selection... my first drink, I didn't really care for, but it wasn't because it was made poorly. It was because it was a bit spicy/smoky in taste. Not my scene. After ordering my sangria I was MUCH happier. To start, we put in an order of guacamole. There was so much, that could have been my dinner itself. My friends and I kept commenting about how much guac they gave us and how we can save it for our dinner. That's exactly what we did! And for dinner, I got the salmon over a pepper sauce. The salmon was cooked just right! The sauce wasn't a spicy pepper sauce, rather it was made with sweet peppers and was soooooo tasty! To end the meal, I had a Rumchata night cap, while my friends had coffee. We had such a wonderful time, and this might be a new spot where we occasionally meet. The decor was super cute and the service was top notch! I really hope more people check this place out! read more

It's funny but I laugh at myself, my last review I said I had "the" best tacos on Long Island? Well, Little Mexico Restaurant is making their own tacos with fresh masa. I just finished lunch, it was truly an experience. Little Mexico restaurant isn't a grab and go taco spot. This is a restaurant, a place where you can bring your family to have a nice dinner. The space inside is very large, the restaurant can accommodate both large and small parties. I'm here for lunch, freshly made salsa and a basket of colorful chips are brought to my table. The drink menu looks substantial. First time here so I ordered a classic margarita. Top shelf liquor was used and I loved the dried lime topping my cocktail. The little details are evident in my drink, I can't wait to order lunch. I started with a bowl of pork-hominy stew called pozole. The depth and richness of flavors from this soup, kudos to the chef. The tacos, I thought I could mix and match but for lunch you cannot. I ordered a trio of Al Pastor tacos. The shells are all pressed and made on premise. Simply amazing. Truly authentic Mexican food being served in Medford. The next time I come back, it will be with my wife for dinner. The dinner menu looks great, listed are all mouth watering dishes. Little Mexico Restaurant is highly recommended. read more

Authentic Mexican , Great food, service and The Green Project band on Thursday Nights.

Was waiting for 1 order of steak tacos and 1 order of birria tacos for almost two hours i wish I wouldn't have paid up front watching everyone leave before me was just unacceptable not even an explanation to why the wait was so long smh read more

This place was amazing. I don't think near enough people know about it because the line should be out the door. The salsa was so smokey and the chips nice and salty. We got brunch and I got a play on eggs Benedict. The portion was huge and it was delicious and the price was reasonable. I will definitely be going back repeatedly. They obviously need more people but I think if it gets busy they will be able to hire. Definitely a little hidden gem. read more

3 people + 5 entrees + 6 cocktails X 1 mariachi band = one great galentines Went to Little Mexico in Medford off Horseblock tonight and had a great time. The service was amazing and all the food tasted awesome. We skipped the apps and did extra entrees. Bone Marrow was new to me but it was served with diced steak and it was yummy. Really enjoyed the home made salsa. I got the skirt steak with chimichurri sauce which was awesome. My friend ordered the fajitas mix which had steak, shrimp and chicken - $21 what an amazing value My sister got the southwest salad with grilled chicken and chicken quesadillas and said it all tasted great And The cocktails were sooo good. I got the Besos Cachondos which was creamy and sweet My friend got the Sabor a Mi - very refreshing and yummy My sister got the Classic Margarita also very good. Service was great and everyone was friendly The band was also really fun and engaging They charged $5 per person for the band but they let us know before making a reservation. We tipped them as well when they played a song for our table. Overall 4/5 Great food and service, fun entertainment The reason for not giving a 5 was because my steak came out cold which sucks when food dies in the window but still tasted good. My party was also charged a service charge of 20% which the restaurant said was standard for Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Not a big deal just unexpected to see on a party of 3 tab which included the $15 for the band as well. We will be back for sure. read more

As you approach the restaurant from the outside, a huge faux cactus decorates the sidewalk, which is adorable. The inside was very big, and well Mexico-theme decorated and presented as very clean. Large bar area. We were escorted to our table and served tortilla chips and salsa. Salsa was good, chunky, mild salsa. It took a while before a server came for our drink order; apparently, she was also bartending. We put in our drink, appetizer, and entree order at the same time. Drinks and appetizers, which were Quesobirria Tacos, came quickly. The tacos, served with lime, along with the consumme were amazing!! Our entrees took quite a while to arrive, again, bartender also serving. My husband ordered the T-Bone Steak, which was perfectly cooked to his liking. He enjoyed it along with the mushroom cream sauce. It was served with grilled asparagus and spicy mashed potatoes. He didn't care for the spicy mashed potatoes, didn't make sense, and tasted like boxed mashed potatoes. I had the Red Enchiladas. Upon ordering, the Menu did not state sour cream or cheddar cheese. I asked if it was served with melted cheddar, and the server confirmed yes. The dish arrives smothered in sour cream, which I hate, and no cheddar cheese (it was cojita crumbles). I didn't touch it. When she saw it was untouched, I explained, and she apologized, asking if I would like anything else or something to go. But the wait was so painfully long, I declined, as was, just getting the bill. She did take a % off the bill for my meal. Overall, it was a decent experience. read more

Went to hear the music . Turns out the food is great too . Telling all of our friends about this restaurant.. great staff as well .,

Came here on a whim. It's in a random unassuming shopping center. It's very spacious inside and you kind of getting that shopping mall vibe everything is spread out. There's a bar in the corner which I might add makes delicious cocktails. Service is lackluster but the star is the food. Every thing and I mean everything was delicious l. Some of the best steak tacos I've had some of the best chicken I've ever had. I wanted the meat platter but I don't think he heard me and was confused and we got a totally different meal. Usually it would get sent back but I could tell they spent time and care making the food so I stuck with it. A huge platter for 6 people came out. It was So overwhelming lol.I was not disappointed however .Everything was delicious best meal I've had in a long while. Will definitely be back. read more

Service sucks food is mid. Been here twice both times didn't like the service all the food.

Authentic !! Great service and menu has options out the door. Dinner was great, flavourful and drinks are on point as well. I had the steak fajita and a mango margarita. They had a live band and Salsa Dan I g lasted throughout the evening. Definitely a local winner! It was bit loud but so worth it! read more

Been waiting for something decent to come into this spot and finally the wait is over! This place wasn't anything too spectacular, BUT a lot of space, good food, friendly staff, and fair prices. The food was good but nothing too special. -Nachos: 2.5/5, these were pretty good. Nothing to write home about but they hit the spot. Nice portion, plenty of toppings. I'm not sure I'd get them again though. Just weren't very memorable. -Chicken Tacos: 4/5, very flavorful, didn't get soggy and fall apart like others. Nice portion for the price (3 small tacos). Overall these were very good. -Hawaiiana Sandwich: 3.5/5, BIG sandwich with plenty of toppings. The pork was very flavorful and cooked well. -Huarache D.F: 4/5, I was looking for a burrito option which I didn't see on the menu so ended up going with this. Ive never had or seen this dish before but I was pretty impressed. It was a big corn tortilla like a "nan style" that was topped with a ton of carne asada, cheese, pico, & beans. Pretty delicious, and would get again. Overall I'd say that I'm glad we came here. We enjoyed the food and experience, however I wouldn't say this is my go to Mexican spot and I'd have a hard time raving about the food. BUT it was good, I feel 3 stars is a fair rating. read more

Clearly arrived here 40 minutes before closing time and they would not seat us or let us order food. If you close when your kitchen closes then adjust your hours. Don't say you're open til 10 when you really close at 8:45. read more

I come to this restaurant regularly as it's a favorite between my boyfriend and I. Every single time the service is amazing and the food is even better.

wow.... I wish I could give this restaurant a negative start rating. It was the worst restaurant experience I have ever had... I should have left when the people at the tables to our right and left started complaining. 1. It took them 25 minutes for a waitress to show up at our table 2. The drinks come on in a small plastic cup, and are mostly ice 3. We asked for water and the waitress said they didnt have glasses for water 4. People kept bringing out food that we hadn't ordered.. They were just searching around for who to give it to 5. The food was not hot. In fact the rice and beans were literally cold. A stuffed pepper had cheese in it that was not melted at all! In fact you could see it was a piece of string cheese 6. A DJ was supposed to start at 7 pm.. We left at 8:30 and there was no music yet 7. There is absolutely no ambience. Think of a church basement with a high ceiling. read more

I Came in with my wife for dinner on the fly. The hostess asked if we had reservations, and there were plenty of open tables. When I asked her if they were necessary she shrugged her shoulders and told me to wait. We waited at least 15 20 minutes before she came back. In the meanwhile I walked to the bar to get drinks for us while the hostess decided whether or not she was gonna seat us. When she returned she told us initially that the tables for 4 were too big, until we pushed the point. After we were finally seated it took another 20 minutes for the waitress to come back to take the order, and bring some chips. We had two differaitresses who were sure whether or not we ordered from either one. The drinks were weak and my wife's white wine was warm well above room temperature. The food was OK but we waited a long time to get the food. It was simple a large house salad and an order of fajitas, which we shared. Had coffee after the meal but there's only one kind of coffee that they serve which is the cinnamon sweetened Mexican type coffee. No regular American coffee, no espresso, and no cappuccino.A cortando or cortadito would have been nice. There was another younger male waiter who came by to check on us, and fix some of the mistakes the two waitresses we had made. He seemed to have it together, but the experience was already tainted by the hostess, the waitress, and the bartender. ¡Que desastre! Thank God we speak Spanish, or maybe not. The Anglo-Saxon customers looked happy and appeared to get better service. read more

Service was friendly and excellent! I loved my drink and fish tacos! Ambiance was quiet.

So wishing there was an option 4 no stars. My office orders from here and on Friday we got a big orders. How many orders can be screw up? Shrimp with rice should come with rice, not over lettuce. Where is my rice? $25 bucks 5 6 shrimp over lettuce? Very disappointed and will encourage my co-workers 2 order elsewhere. read more

Went on a weekend the place was empty then got busier It took forever to get our food. The service was terrible. Only one waitress who could not speak English, and was very hard to understand and did not understand us. food was so so alcoholic drinks had very little alcohol. Never will go back. Ambulance was not there I've been to much better Mexican restaurants will not be going back. Seems like they don't know how to run a restaurant read more

This little gem is a diamond in the rough. The most delicious food and delicious drinks. We love it!!!!!!!

The service was terrible. We were left at the door waiting to be seated and the place was empty. They didn't even acknowledge us. Looks like maybe a party was wrapping up but clearly it ended a while ago and there was no reason to be left there. Then they sat us and no one came to take a drink order so we used the QR code and decided to go to the bar for drinks because we were just...left at the table. We ordered frozen margaritas and then were told they don't have them but ummm...it was on menu? We were talked to like idiots and at that point decided to walk out. Literally no one cared, haha. Ugh. Just a bummer read more

OMG!!! WOW! What a diamond in the rough. This place is aces. Service is incredible,food even better and I just found out live music Friday's and Saturdays. My pictures say it all if they don't make you hungry I don't know what will. Their refried beans have to be made there. Not too chunky and very moist. Not dry like some store bought. The yellow rice has corn and capers mixed it,what a great taste. The soup I had was made to perfection. Nice and cheesy and a half of avocado in it. Who would have thought to put pork rinds on top. They eventually get soft and soggy adding to the great flavor of the soup. The home made guacamole comes with the whole seed in it not sure why but adds to the excitement. Not much added to it but loads of avocado and taste. They have a house salsa which I find very mild but ask for the house hot sauce to add fire to your salsa.I will ask for a bottle of it to take home. I had flank steak cooked medium rare. Every bite was perfect and had an purplish red color to it no need for a folk very tender.. oh yea I don't drink but they have a big bar with lots of signature drinks. I'm heading back to LI just to revisit this place very soon. Definitely go!!!! And Enjoy! read more
