Where to Find the Best Mexican Food in the St. Louis Area

Dos Reyes Mexican Restaurant(5912 Hampton Avenue, 314-833-5550)Formerly known as the One Way Cafe, this place is fantastic no matter what you call it. RFT food critic Cheryl Baehr flipped out over the beef torta. She described it as “like the best pot roast you’ve ever had”, with beef so tender that it falls apart at the mere suggestion of a fork.
Arzola's Fajitas + Margaritas(2730 McNair Avenue, eatarzolas.com)The steak fajitas at Arzola's Fajitas + Margaritas are less a dish and more of a religious experience. The quesadillas, too, set the standard of the form. And don’t skip the burritos. OK, you’re actually going to have to go to Arzola’s multiple times. Brew Tulum Specialty Coffee Experience(5090 Delmar Boulevard, Unit B; brewtulum.com)Brew Tulum is a cafe, roastery and restaurant that has evolved from a Tulum-based specialty coffee supplier into a thrilling celebration of Mexican coffee and culinary culture. If you want a meal of vibrant food followed by world-class coffee, Brew Tulum is ready to provide. Diana's Bakery(2843 Cherokee Street, 314-771-6959)This Mexican bakery on Cherokee Street sells the best churros in town. The neighborhood focal point also offers cake, flan, turnovers and all other manner of dough-filled treats like sweet and savory empanadas. (For a heavenly experience, don't skip the lemon empanada.) Fonda la Poblanita(3830 Morgan Ford Road, orderfondalapoblanita.com)Fonda la Poblanita offers authentic Mexican dishes that can be difficult to find elsewhere in St. Louis. Make sure to try their huaraches (open-faced sandwiches named for their resemblance to sandals) and their machetes (basically two-foot-long treats akin to a quesadilla). La Tejana Taqueria(3149 North Lindbergh Boulevard, St. Ann; latejanastl.com)Everybody knows that the best tacos come from strip malls and we’ve been saying for years that La Tejana Taqueria has some of the best tacos in St. Louis. From steak, carnitas and chicken to tongue, pork skin or goat, owners Antonio and Brenda Garcia serve up dazzling dishes in a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Chava’s Mexican Restaurant(Two locations including 925 Geyer Ave, chavasmexican.com)If you’re in Soulard but you wish you were on Cherokee Street, Chava’s Mexican Restaurant will hook you up with some spice. Serving up Tex-Mex flavors next to Soulard-style margaritas (read: strong ones), Chava’s is the perfect placed for a drink and some fried tacos.
