This was not very good food, also the orders came out wrong twice, they had forgotten the guacamole multiple times. The waiter that we had was not very enthusiastic at all either. Overalll- 2/5 stars read more

I have been waiting to go to this place for awhile. From the outside it looks like a fun place to eat with - hopefully - good food. After finally going I think I may have built it up a little too much in my mind but it was still a good eat. I loved their salsa and chips along with the fact that they offered vegetarian options that weren't just full of beans and cheese. The service was average and the prices were good. My margarita (strawberry) was way too strong and I couldn't finish it but some people like it that way. I ordered the Spinach-Mushroom Quesadilla with the Casa Salad. The Quesadilla was a breath of fresh air. I love experimenting with different types of Quesidillas and I LOVE spinach and mushroom together. It came served with some salsa on top and my boyfriend and I consumed the entire thing in less than 3 minutes. The Casa Salad was full of veggies. The waiter suggested I use the Chipotle Dressing and he was right. It helped bring the salad to the next level. The only thing I hated was the olives but that was my fault because I forgot to ask for the salad to be sans-olives (I am an olive hater). My boyfriend ordered the Veggie Fajitas and we were both enamored by the restaurant's use of sliced avacado in both of our dishes. There is something about plain avacado that beats gaucamole to me. This place seems to be a great hangout for games and they have a huge Cinco De Mayo bash planned. I took notice of their happy hour specials (Mon-Fri 4:30-7 pm @ the bar) and plan on coming back for it. read more

"This place is always busy!!" - my mother I grew up less than a mile away from this restaurant. Whenever I drive home, this place's parking lot is always full. I have eaten here several times throughout the years. (this review is from my most recent visit in 11/2013.) My mother and I stopped by the bar for happy hour (4:30 - 7:00). We took advantage of the half price appetizers. I love that the hour is 2.5 hours; it caters to a lot of different schedules. We got three orders of wings, two orders of tacos and two orders of the quesadillas - our eyes were bigger than our stomachs after hot yoga. Our appetites were satisfied. It can get a little crowded at the bar, so plan accordingly during the busy hours. This is a definite staple in North Wilmington. read more

Best salsa and guacamole in the area. The regular and mango margaritas are top notch, and they also have awesome wings which is odd for a Mexican Place. The happy hour prices are reasonable, and they have reduced price fare during games on weeknights. read more

Food is very anorexic, very poorly seasoned and for $15 you get a very small burrito with very little on top and surrounding it. I'm really unimpressed. Service was good though. read more

The food is great and always very well done and the atmosphere is always very nice although the service is very inconsistent, sometimes it's great but other times it feels as if my entire presence has been forgotten, also they put straws in your water without asking, although they do claim their straws are biodegradable so it's okay. read more

My boyfriend had the absolutely fantastic idea of going to Mexican Post for some "cheap" margaritas before going to see a movie across the street at the Regal. This place was surprisingly empty considering it was 4:00 on a Sunday during football season, which was okay by me. We sat at the bar and got a pitcher of mango margaritas. First impression was that the drinks were going to be pretty weak considering the color was BRIGHT orange...I was wayyyy wrong. The pitcher was pretty strong and flavorful - perfect for pre-movie drinks. We also ordered the queso dip and 2 shredded beef tacos. Queso dip was really good; the tacos were pretty run-of-the-mill, though I was impressed by the selection of hot sauces available. We got our check and were pretty surprised that the pitcher cost a whopping $42! We should have paid attention to what we ordered, I guess. I'd like to say that the amount/quality of the tequila was worth it, but that would definitely be a lie. After we guzzled down the pitcher, we heard that the house margaritas were on special ($3) because of SUNDAY FUNDAY (...I hate that so much...), so we decided to try them. Weak and blah - don't even bother. Sidebar: Don't see SInister....even after a pitcher of margaritas, it's really bad and not scary. read more

We always enjoy this Mexican Post. We love sitting at the high top tables. They have delicious, freshly made salsa and chips. It's quite spicy...which we love! The portions have gotten smaller over the years but they will refresh them as much as you want. The food usually comes out fairly quickly. The vegetable fajitas are delish. Unlike some silly restaurants that only give peppers and onions and maybe one other veggie, at the Post, you get Portobello mushrooms, zucchini and a nice, fresh fanned out avocado, etc. The enchiladas are also delicious. My boyfriend usually gets the combo meals so he can try various things and he always likes everything!!! The combos give you lots of options so you can try enchiladas, tacos, chimichangas, etc. Chicken grosses me out so I rarely get it at a restaurant. Their chicken is cooked and shredded so it's super tender and delicious. It does not "skeeve me out" at all. Lol. The guacamole is delicious, as well. They always have a pretty good bar scene whenever we come here. It seems like a lot of regulars. The bartenders always seem friendly and happy to serve their large happy hour (and beyond) crowd. There are TV'S with local sports on. It seems like things have gone up recently. We told the manager this on one of our recent experiences. It seemed cleaner and the food seemed fresher and the server was excellent. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for some yummy Mexican food. I can't comment on the authenticity but to me, it's a great place. Good value for your money, too. The one thing I would say they need to work on are the nachos. My boyfriend and I are a HUGE fan of nachos and they quite frankly, just aren't that good. I was glad they were on special for half off the last time we went because they were awful. I hated to even have to pay half price for them! read more

Mexican Post is in a small strip mall on Naamans Road eastbound. I've almost never been able to get to and from any of the shopping areas on the south side of Naamans Road without making a U-turn somewhere, so you're on your own there. Maybe try a different route back. Anyway, I found the dining area to be quite comfortable with calming ambiance and some decor pieces that fit the theme. Service was good too. Unfortunately, the food seemed only about average, on par with Don Pablo's or similar, and prices are on the high or upscale side. read more

Mexican post is the absolute GOAT! The queso is unreal, margs are flames and the service is awesome ....who doesn't love free chips and salsa. Give it a shot for sure. Ask for Tatiana. read more

Overall this place is good eats. I recommend the chimichonga w/pork. Their pork in anything is extra tasty. Also, I think they recently changed their salsa recipe for the better. Definately an upgrade cause it's been extra tasty as of late, nice and spicy with just the right amount of cilantro. Mexican Post is also a good place to go to watch The Phillies as they have half price drink specials during the games. Good margaritas! read more

I can't say enough positive things about this place! I crave the food when I haven't been by in awhile. The atmosphere is fun and festive and every time I i go I have an excellent experience. The staff is attentive, especially my favorite waitress Kylee (not sure if I spelled it right) - but they are all amazing. Food is delicious - like I said, I crave it all the time. In fact, I know exactly where I'm going for lunch today.....Trust me, you will not be disappointed!! read more

Today was the worst experience of my life. I was so excited to eat some great Mexican food. As we sat down to look over the menu, I noticed a lot of choices that were not authentic Mexican dishes. I noticed advertised Mexican burgers and chicken wings. We ordered tacos. We thought how can you mess this up. Less than 3 minutes after our order was paced, our tacos came out. With one bite, I was unimpressed by the taste of the food. The meat was taste less and greasy. Never could I imagine such disgusting food would be served to humans. We told our waitress that we did not want to pay for the food. Another girl with a short pixie cut came over to tell us it was "Tex Mex." I told her it was not Tex Mex and I can get a better taco from Taco Bell. Not impressed. Do you self a favor and go to Taste of Puebla in Kennett Square. Way better authentic Mexican food. read more

Mexican Post - Worlds worst dish! - Mexican Near Me - Wilmington, Delaware

Great lunch... Waitress was great! Pay more for the guacamole! It's worth the visit! read more

Have been here twice, and A-OK is what the place is! It's conveniently located to the Brandywine Regal Cinemas, and both times we went, they were really fast. The food is pretty much what you might expect at a chain style Mexican restaurant, (At least this is a small local chain!) and I thought the margaritas were OK. We had an especially nice server last time around who was even chatty about movie recommendations. I suspect dinner at the Mexican post and a a movie will remain a staple in our date night formula. read more

Received very good service from Julie. Food was just ok unfortunately. The tortillas used in the enchilada were definitely old, but the shredded beef taco was very good. Good place for a quick bite and in a rush. Food took less than 10 minutes to come out. read more

I went here with my family to grab a bite to eat and a few drinks. We had the Nachos traditional. The cheese was hard and dry on the nachos. The veggies were old. It seemed like they stuck it in a microwave and forgot about it. Then I got the chicken fajitas. They were rubbery. The waitress was awesome at first and then had a major attitude. I gave this place two tries and both times it wasn't anything to talk about. read more

We were here early for lunch and consequently they were not very many people when we came in. The service was good and the food was good. I had a chicken taco salad which was fresh with an abundant amount of grilled chicken. The jalapenos were a little hot for me so I could not eat all of them. My wife had grilled salmon, with vegetables and rice. She loved the entire dish especially the sauce on the salmon. read more

Mexican Post - Margarita - Mexican Near Me - Wilmington, Delaware

Let me start by saying I used to LOVE this place. It was always my go to for Mexican food. I don't know what's happened since covid but it's definitely gone way downhill. It was way overly tacky stereotype "Mexican" decorated, which it didn't use to be. The whole place was COVERED in alcohol paraphernalia and cinco de Mayo decor. It's almost Fourth of July. Maybe time to take it down? We ordered nachos, quesadillas, and fajitas. The nachos were good but not any different that what you could get at a chain. Everything was very bland and had almost no flavor. It was cooked well, tender and juicy, but bland. The margaritas were another problem. I got frozen mango and it just tasted like mango purée (which I kept burping the rest of the night. Not good) and my husband got a classic and said it tasted just like the margarita mix and ice. There was definitely no tequila in them and if there was it was maybe MAYBE a shot. For our $90 bill, we could've spent half that on all the same food, had actual tequila, more flavor in our food and drinks at an Applebee's. It was sad too bc I talked this place UP to my husband, who is actually Mexican. He probably won't listen to me anymore now. The fried ice cream was the saving grace to the whole thing. It wasn't BAD. Just very disappointing for what we ended up paying. read more

We bought a discount card through our school and Mexican Post was on it for 10% off until August 2021. I tried to use it this evening and the hostess said, "Sorry we are not honoring it anymore." Really? A restaurant that doesn't follow through on a commitment is not for me. You just lost several Customers! read more

We thoroughly enjoy dining at the Mexican Post! It has become our local "go-to" Mexican restaurant. Refills on the chips and salsa (which is outstanding, by the way), and the chips come to the table warm! The margarita's are excellent and there are many to choose from (highly recommend a pitcher). The wait staff is friendly and accommodating (especially with small children). Prices are fair, food is excellent, nice atmosphere and great staff! read more

Overpriced margarita pitcher with (maybe) a shot of tequila. Bland, flavorless chimichanga. Mushy dry beans with zero flavor. And they put their green mystery sauce on everything. Yuck! read more

I was hungry and figured to give this place a try. I ordered a grilled chicken quesadilla with spinach for takeout. So this is what I paid over $13 for..... a plain flour tortilla stuffed with cheese. That's pretty much it. It was big though.... a big mess. The tortilla wasn't crisp or anything, soft and mushy. It was 95% cheese, not kidding with sprinkles of chicken. They would have been better to have forgotten to add chicken than put the amount of chicken that was in this thing. The veggies that was in it was laughable. They didn't give sour cream or salsa. Nothing about it was good, even the massive amount of cheese. I almost brought it back and told them thanks but no thanks and keep the money.... I know we are in a pandemic and times are hard but I couldn't believe they were serious!!! My first and last time going here. I would never in a million years go back, unreal. read more

We love it here! I can get flavored margaritas on the rocks, which is surprisingly hard to find. The salsa changed i think, but it's still great. I used to take my family to the one down town, but this one has the same menu, so its a win. Prices are fair, good selection. read more

Mexican Post - Yum! - Mexican Near Me - Wilmington, Delaware

So bad. I'm love Mexican and found this place on yelp. It was dirty!!!! So dirty. I got a margarita and it tasted like cough medicine. So gross! The guacamole was bland and flavorless. The menu was so unauthentic. Go to La Tolteca instead or chipotle or Taco Bell. read more

It was take out. We didn't realize so many places were closed. Nachos were the worst we have ever seen. Each of us chose a different entree. Best each of us could say was mediocre. Won't go there again read more

This is a very friendly and excellent restaurant. .I recommend the bar. It reminds me of bars in Key West. Relaxed,excellent food and a large tequila selection. I stop in for all of the above, but I don't drink tequila Much fun. Sit at the bar! A FUN place . read more

We've been going to Mexican Post for over a decade - the menu has changed a number of times but most recently we encountered the strangest thing - I ordered a Fajita Salad - one would assume it would be a protein, chicken or beef, cheese, fried onions & bell peppers, green onions, maybe olives and jalapenos with lettuce maybe in a fried flour tortilla bowl or not. The weirdest thing - I ordered the Fajita Salad and it was a Taco Salad as described on the menu, with chicken which is the second item on the menu. When questioned about the issue, we were told management changed the menu and if you want fried onions and peppers with your Fajita salad you have to ASK for it - so why call it a Fajita salad and charge $5 more than the Taco Salad or Chicken Taco Salad? This menu change makes no sense. Point - If you want a Fajita Salad at Mexican Post you MUST request Fried onions and Peppers - makes it redundant. read more

If you like to eat bland, Americanized food with black olives as a garnish, this place is for you! My husband and I popped in here before a movie thinking we could grab a quick bite and grab some Margs. I read a 4 star review that said this was the best Mexican food in Wilmington. "Yeah, right," I thought but we decided to give it a try. Now I'm spoiled by all the offerings of KSQ, but rice pilaf as a side? Gimme a break. Everyone knows the real rice is made by toasting the rice in hot oil first. What is this crap? Boxed rice, frozen food, chips from Sysco. And the margarita? Holy sour mix, Batman! We won't be back. Service was good though, but I couldn't help but wonder if he is embarrassed to work there. read more

Decent Mexican meal tonight. Started out with cheese dip and salsa with chips. Had a combo meal and it was very filling. Son and wife also enjoyed their meals. Finished with Mexican deef fried ice cream. Very good! Service was good overall! read more

Stopped here for an early dinner after taking the baby for outpatient at AI DuPont. I ordered the Ropa Vieja and it was amazing. Well seasoned shredded beef with red and green peppers, onions and cheese on top, rice and beans. They give you two flour tortillas to build your own soft taco. I added the green hot sauce for extra flavor and heat. I didn't have much leftovers but I got a box to take the rest home for a snack later on. The only downfall is that they don't have Jarritos. Our server said that they don't carry glass bottles because people have broken the glass and injured themselves. read more

One of the worst meals I've ever had. My meal AND my companion's was prepared so quickly -- too quickly apparently because they were not hot at all. They seemed to be delivered within about 3 minutes of ordering so they had not been sitting so long they got cold. It was someone's choice to plate the meals and deliver them that way. And while I'm sure it was on the menu that a dollop of sour cream for my tacos cost extra, it was a little irritating given how badly the meals turned out. We won't be going back. read more

I was hoping this was a nice experience since the radio station 93.7 in Delaware is always talking good things about ....WRONG!! the food is really bad the drinks were served in plastic cups. Cmon a margarita in a plastic cup? Really!!.... the food is not authentic is not TexMex, witch I love ... but not here. .. and the cherry on the cake was a "hair" in my wife's margarita. We just asked for the check and left. If you like real Mexican food avoid this place , if you like mediocre Tex-Méx food go for it. read more

Mexican Post - Mexican Near Me - Wilmington, Delaware

Mexican Post has four locations scattered about the Delaware Valley. They are individually owned and operated. This particular location was owned by the same group as the flagship location in Old City, which closed after operating for almost 25 years. I have always found Mexican Post (Wilmington, DE) to be a fine option for a casual Mexican style meal. I usually go fried chimchanga but during my most recent visit I tried the chile relleno and a taco. The cr was a little spongy and the taco crumbled upon lift-off but both tasted just fine and served as an acceptable late lunch. The waiter was very pleasant and asked numerous times if everything was okay. I was also exit greeted on my way out. I sincerely felt as if all of the staff members that I came in contact with thoroughly got the concept of customer service. Note: Lunch menu ends at 3 p.m. read more

Had a takeout order from this place. I ordered a pork tamale and the guacamole. The tamale was a bit disappointing with little taste (although perhaps that is because I tried the guacamole first). But the texture was pretty good. Hopefully I will try this place again and be able to bring up my current score. The guacamole was ok, but way too spicy for my wussy taste buds. But there were huge chunks of avocado unmashed in the mixture. Have not decided whether this is a good or bad thing. read more

The food is good, but slightly overpriced. I was a regular customer (weekly) until I was dining one evening with my boyfriend and we witnessed the way the owner treated his staff. I was almost in tears myself for the way the wait staff was being treated. I had to leave because I couldn't witness it anymore. We haven't been back since. read more

HORRIBLE SLOP! Poor excuse for Mexican food, waitress sucked and what Mexican place has freakin fish tank in it????? NASTY!!! STAY AWAY!!! And it was so weird, they had an Mary Kay lady at the front door greeting people and giving away her cards and info, WTF??? read more

Mediocre Mexican food. Portions were kind of small. I only had enough meat to make 2 fajitas with. Food was fresh but lacked flavor, it had virtually no spice in it. Service was acceptable but nothing special. Even the menus had several spelling errors. The only high point was the very cold beers. If you want A+ Mexican food go to Border Cafe. read more

The parking lot is always packed so we were intrigued to try it. Maybe we got the wrong things (tamales and tacos) but I don't see what the hype is about. The service was good but the food was just ok. No need to go back. read more

Went here with friends when a lot of other options were closed for the holiday. Our expectations were pretty low but were exceeded. Is this authentic? No. But it's tasty enough for the basic dishes if you're craving a burrito or enchiladas. We didn't sit at the bar but it looked like a fun place to watch a game. read more
