Not the best or the worst either..... but not really "good" I wouldn't stop here again. I had a burrito. The rice was dry and overcooked. The meat greasy and again overcooked. Rubbery shrimp and chewy steak. Everything lacked seasoning. Server was nice but show and inattentive. read more

This is our go to Mexican restaurant. The place is vibrantly decorated, and the staff is always friendly. However, most importantly, the food is always very good. We certainly recommend it. read more

I really wanted to enjoy this place considering the reviews were good but it was just ok. First we had to hunt down a server to get some service , that's never a good thing: once we got seated we got chips and salsa which was mehhh. I ordered the enchilada mexicanas which came with 3 enchiladas, vegetables and some rice: the enchiladas needed more sauce on top to accommodate the dry meat. Overall it was just an ok lunch passing through Mississippi. read more

Ate here again after months and got what I usually order: a grilled shrimp salad. The food quality over the years has gone down (compared to when they first opened) and the reason why it has been months since my last visit is because of their drinks, another issue. My entire party ordered top shelf alcohol with our drinks but after drinking then, we realized the alcohol wasn't what we ordered. I got so sick off the drinks I didn't even make it out of the parking lot before throwing up and so did another guest that was with us. If you've ever bought and made drinks using cheaper vs more expensive alcohol you know the difference in taste and how quickly it can cause you to get drunk. Overall, decent food in a small town. read more

I won't be back! The margarita & pina colado were weak & not tasty. I sent one back & gave up on the other one. They tasted watered down with a weak flavoring. Yuck! I had the shrimp salad. The shrimp was good, but there was a lot of water on the plate. I drained the water into a salsa bowl. My date had the Mexican Fries & the cheese was runny, because there was so much water on the bottom & his fries were soggy. read more

Mexico Grill - I poured excess water off my meal into a salsa bowl. Not good! - Mexican Near Me - Tunica, Mississippi

Everything is so good that I let my phone pick a random number to help me pick - otherwise I take thirty minutes drooling over menu memories. When extended family comes to town they all want to eat here. Even my aunt who "doesn't like spicy" has lots of options to choose from. The little kids have simple American staples like a pizza and hamburger. The portions are huge. Some of my favorite picks from memory are The Street Taco (Carne Asada) with Salsa Verde The Molcajete (spelling?) It's something like four or five grilled meats and a pepper served in a rock mortar. Any of the fajitas especially the ones with all the meat choices. Margaritas on the rocks are sooooooo good. read more

Mexico Grill - The large margaritas are large. - Mexican Near Me - Tunica, Mississippi

Great god, good service, awesome margaritas! The food was exceptional and good portions!!! Do it!

Everything is good! The margaritas are the best! I personally do not like their hamburger meats but my husband eats it up! If they are not slammed best to wait. But we don't usually have a problem! We eat early! Love the furniture and ambiance is good. read more

Really good Mexican food Huge menu. Large servings. Especially for lunch We came because it was so close to the horseshow Service was fast and friendly. There was some language issues but the server was trying hard to please One got the grilled chicken salad Three of us got the combination fajita. It has chicken, steak and shrimp. The chicken and steak were a little over cooked but the shrimp was perfect The chips came hot and fresh. The salsa was tasty. Not too hot and had nice flavor The decor is very Mexican . Lots of artistic expression on the chairs,tables and walls Our server was very attentive Pay at the front register I want to come again and try something else read more

Good chicken fried rice, I love it with extra veggies an the sweet tea is fire, huge menu an alot to choose from

I lived in Dallas, TX for 17 years, so I'm always looking for good Tex-Mex places. While I haven't found one in the area that is the same as in Texas, some are better than others. This is one of the "others" and I doubt I'll be going back. I always start by judging whether or not I like the chips and salsa. In this case, I had high hopes--often places serve salsa that is so chunky it is more akin to pico de gallo than salsa. In this case, there were NO chunks, which would have been okay, but I found it to be flavorless, or nearly so. And even someone who doesn't like chunks would like it to be firm enough to stick to the chips. It didn't. It was runny. In contrast, the chips were thin and crisp, not stale, however I prefer them warmed--but that is strictly my preference. They were tasty and fine overall. I tried something on the menu that I don't ordinarily see on a Tex-Mex menu, at least around here--grilled shrimp, with bacon and cheese. I'm not into refried beans, so I skipped those and doubled the rice that came with the dish. Something didn't work. The rice was virtually flavorless. It could have been white rice straight out of the cooker and I wouldn't have known the difference. The bacon on my dish, while abundant, was overly fatty and tough to cut let alone eat. And the combination, while I was originally excited to combine the flavors, wasn't there for me. It was as if everything was left without any spices, and where simply combined on a plate. I left more than half the dish on my plate, and was very disappointed. It also didn't sit well with me--and I'll leave it at that without gory details (use your imagination). The service was fine--nothing outstanding, but for example I never had to ask for a drink refill--the waiter was attentive and courteous. When I originally asked for more time to review the menu, he not only gave me that, but didn't wait overly long to come back and see if I was ready. He also checked in regularly to see if I needed anything else. Could it have been that particular dish? Sure. Maybe it was a bad night, although they were definitely not busy. But given the location and the (literally) bad taste the dish left in my mouth, I would not recommend this place. Maybe you would have better luck than I did if you stuck to more of the traditional burritos and tacos. read more

Mexico Grill - Grill Shrimp with Bacon and Cheese - Mexican Near Me - Tunica, Mississippi

I'll give it 4 stars, having been here twice. I would have given it 5 stars because the enchiladas I got the first time were really good. However, I was disappointed by the shrimp fajitas - the shrimp were mushy and overcooked. Try something else! The obligatory tortilla chips are delicate and crispy, and the salsa is decent. One of the few restaurants in the Tunica food desert worth going to. read more

Being from Vegas and this place in the middle of nowhere, good job. I enjoyed myself along with a few friends so much we had to come back again. All the servers were very professional and clean. The only thing i can say about the manager is to smile, everything else is great in this restaurant. The furnishing and ambiance of the place as authentic as you can get out here. Loved the food and definitely worth the prices! The chips are homemade as you can tell when they come out steaming. Unlike other Mexican spots, their chips are really thin flaky and crisp in the perfect way (ate a whole basket myself). Make sure you get Steak de Camarones or anything from their Favorites page. And if you're up for it, get a real Shrimp Ceviche in a huge tub'like wine glass! They looked at me like they've never seen a Yelper before when i asked for the free margarita with check-in. Only 4 reviews so ehh i cant blame 'em. They didn't hold back on the good stuff either. If you're into beer, try Carta Blanca which is usually not served in many Latin restaurants. Live Latin band is occasional and random says the manager, so hopefully someone else can review on how that goes. read more

Best Mexican restaurant in Tunica! Meat is so fresh and just taste so much better then anything I'm use to tasting. Staff is always friendly and quick. 5 stars. read more

We ate here on Wednesday, March 2, 2022. They were very busy for a Wednesday evening and were very short handed. I felt sorry for the server who was literally running to try to keep up. We ordered the enchiladas verdes and I can honesly say it was the WORST mexican meal I have ever had. The tortillas just fell apart and the chicken appeared almost boiled. Seriously, it was a terrible meal! I have never written a review for dining prior to this but felt an obligation to write this one! read more

I stopped by here on a road trip from Houston to Clarksdale, Mississippi. There is not much around the area (except the casino's) so not a lot to choose from. This restaurant has a great menu with a lot of variety. The prices are decent (right about $20 for 2 people). The food was good. The crispy beef taco was just a little salty but still good. The flautas were tasty and the enchilada was also very good. We will come back when we are in town. read more

Cashier wasn't friendly and even a little rude. First time ordering everything was cooked to perfection, 2nd night we didn't get so lucky. My quesadilla steak was tough and dried out. Hubby loved the grande burrito and ordered it both nights! My shrimp fajita taco salad was great! The hot salsa was no joke, def tested my hot and spicy loving hubs. Cheese dip was hard the first order and much better consistency the 2nd order. We should have tried the cheese dip with pico, it sounded like what we are used to back home when we order cheese dip. Also asked for guacamole and that was left out but all in all a good option for one looking for something besides casino food. read more

I love everything about this place the food is excellent service is above the top and it's clean casual and affordable

The chicken and shrimp fajita nachos were put together really well. The chips were thin and were layered so that they stayed crispy on the outer part of the plate and under the meat and veggies got soft. It had a wonderful flavor- not just butter and olive oil but really a great Mexicans flavor. I would have like a few more peppers but that's just me personally. The tacos al carbon came with three tacos and also had a great flavor. Everything came out piping hot and tasted very fresh!! read more

We were traveling home from Stuttgart, Arkansas and decided to stay the night in Tunica on our way back to South Alabama. It was a Sunday and there wasn't much to eat besides fast food, casino buffets and this little place. We were instantly impressed when we walked in. The decor was beautiful, it was super clean and the staff was super friendly. The cheese dip, salsa and chips were the best. They have great drinks and prices to go with it them. They had a good selection of draft/ bottled beers and top shelf margaritas. The margaritas were very authentic and much better than any mix margarita you can buy from the store. The food was UNBELIEVABLE! The fajitas were super fresh and a great portion. We all left wishing we had one where we live. If you are looking for great Mexican I would highly recommend eating here! Ask for Rosa . read more

We were exploring Tunica and happened upon this little gem, so we decided to pop in for some snacking and drinks. The margaritas were a little on the weak side. It took about 3 margaritas to match what I usually experience after 1. They tasted alright though... good enough to put 3 of them down, but nothing more special than OK. My group shared chips with a few different dips. The chips were perfect, nice and warm and crispy. The guacamole, Mexican dip (white cheese with pico de gallo), choriqueso (white sauce with Mexican sausage) all really hit the spot!! The service was great: fast and friendly! I actually enjoyed my time and the food here more than one of the fancy steakhouses at the casino. Our server even gave us directions to another little local hole in the wall bar to go play some darts. read more

The staff was more accommodating than any restaurant I've ever been. The waitress was very sweet and attentive and spot on with every question necessary for you to have exactly what you wanted for your order. While sitting and eating, The bell rang for another customer coming through the door and the door greeter sped by our booth to get to them in an extremely timely manner! Can't say I've ever saw that before! The food was fantastic and the price was perfect! I live an hour from here and my boyfriend and I joked that we would come back to Tunica just to come to this restaurant! I recommend it for price, food, atmosphere and the wait staff. read more

Great food, great service and the best chips around. I've been going to the Mexican Grill for years and it never disappoints.

Food was excellent. I got the fajitas for one and could make 3 more out of the leftovers. I'm from Texas so the white queso threw me off a bit but it was all very good! read more

This place was really gross. That's about all I can say, but you know I like to run my review mouth. Whether it's the sub par fake guacamole, or the cheese sauce on the burrito that made Ryan take one bite and set aside his food, or the rubbery factory farmed chicken fajitas re-fried on a not so sizzling pan, or even the ground beef that made Dave the food hound retch. The staff doesn't want to even be working at this roadside restaurant. But will survive if you eat here? Only time will tell. read more

Food good enough, but waited over 15 minutes to be served. Never saw the waitress again...not even for the freakin check

Was disappointed due to the great reviews. Our food was average at best and my margarita was an unnatural green, yuk! Service was terrible. I wasn't even offered water. The bathroom was messy and the paneling lot was disgusting. read more

negative stars.... The absolute worst Mexican restaurant I've ever been to. Our drinks were never refilled, one of our family members never got her meal. The food was cold and the service was terrible. If you are visiting the casinos do not go to this place. The place to go is The Blue & White restaurant right down the road! read more

Amazing flavors. My boyfriend And I went just for fun one day when he got home from work and it was very very good. Would definitely go again!!! Would recommend to literally everyone. read more

The best Mexican restaurant to eat at,I would recommend this restaurant,they have good business and friendly staff members

This is your typical Tex-Mex joint. There's one practically one in every town in America. This one unfortunately typifies everything I don't like about bastardized Mexican food. So they have your typical Tex-Mex menu. I did see tacos el pastor so I attempted to order them. The server asked me "Chicken or Beef" I responded pork. Because tacos el pastor are made with pork. He looked slightly confused as well I. My wife ordered "Mexican Street" tacos. After about ten minutes the server came back and said I needed to choose chicken or beef for my El Pastor. I asked for a menu and pointed to the picture of the el pastor tacos conveniently located in the menu. The server responded with "chicken or beef". So I changed to chorizo and beef tacos. So about 20 minutes later our meals were delivered. The "beef" in both our tacos was tough because they never got the grill hot enough so the meat steamed. So it was tough and livery. The onions on the street tacos were cut very large as the recipe called for a "large rustic chop". Let's see no lime served with the tacos and of course the straight out of the package corn tortillas. Avoid if possible. read more

Stopped here for lunch on road trip because it was the first place we saw. Glad we did! Yummy mango margaritas, cold Dos XX on tap and great, reasonably priced food. Chili relleno a rock. Tacos come with extra lettuce and guacamole. What more could you want?! Lunch tab for two combos, three cold beers and a healthy sized margarita? $18.42. Love! read more

Solid option in a town without many options. Food is good, but service is spotty. Never enough people working the place. I once saw a patron at the bar get up, walk behind the bar, and then refill his own beer because the bartender (who was also a server/busboy/host) had been absent so long. read more

This place almost became my new favorite Mexican restaurant. I stopped by around 3:30pm. I was quickly seated by he friendly host (since there was only one other table). I decided on the combination fajitas. They brought out warm, thin and crispy chips with salsa that was just the right consistency, heat and flavor. In my mind I was thinking so far so good! Then came out my fajitas with the normal sides of beans, rice, pico de gallo, lettuce, sour cream, guacamole and tortillas. All the sides were very good and the flour tortillas in the tray were nice and warm (I prefer the home made flour tortillas but I know very few restaurants carry them so no points were taken off here). At this point it was still in contention to being #1. Where it lost was when it came down to the fajitas itself. They were REALLY dry and the seasonings were grainy. If I had to take a guess, the meat was precooked and reheated for serving. Did I catch them on an off time or day...maybe? I'll give this place another try. Hopefully next time the fajitas are actually sizzling on the hot plate with juices flowing instead of sitting there looking dead. read more

What a great place! They make anything on the menu the way you want it with the ingredients you want! I live in Chicago where there are some great Mexican restaurants and some pretty bad ones. This place could compete with the best. If looking for something different than casino food, check-out Mexico Grill! Their grilled jalapeños make any meal. read more

Excellent food and service! I was very impressed with their selection of dishes and the quality of the food they serve. I'll be back! JMK read more

After enduring several days of mediocre casino food Mexico Grill was a welcome change of pace. The chips were hot and crisp with fresh salsa made served in little carafes where you could see the fresh onion and cilantro. Service was attentive and prompt. We were fortunate to make it in at the tail end of Happy Hour so Mexican bottle beers and margaritas were reasonably priced. The food was satisfying and fresh, with good portions and flavorful sauces. In all, this was the best meal we had all week. Three of us were able to dine, including drinks, for under $40. This is a great alternative to casino dining and well worth the short drive from the resort area. We will definitely be back on our next visit to Tunica. read more

It was so good! Great place for large families/groups.

Stopped for dinner about 5:30. The chips and salsa were great. The chips were thin and crispy and warm. I had the fajitas and my husband had a quesadilla. Both were well prepared, flavorful and generous portions. Just a short trip from the Gold Strike Casino where we were staying. We will definitely return when we are in the area. read more
