Food is good. Lots of choices. Steak is tender and flavorful, as was the pork tostada. What I would change is the salsa...not much flavor. Also...needs a good cleaning. Walls inside booths are pretty bad. read more

Worst food ever...ordered steak burrito an taco dinner...steak on all of it was literally burnt till it was hard an crunchy. Who even serves their customers something like that...? Get a cook that actually knows how to cook!!! read more

Food is fantastic! I moved to Knox IN a year ago and we have so much food to choose from so coming to small Town I was thinking I was not going to find same quality that we had available in Illinois but this place has great food and so glad Im right down the street!!!! read more

The food and service were great. Why would anyone go to taco bell when Mexico Lindo is right across the street and cheaper. Fresh real food. read more

My wife a second generation Mexican-American loves this place. She had the carne asada and loved everything, so there's that. I found the tacos so-so, the Mexican rice bland and the re-fried beans watery. The only thing I liked was the grilled garlic shrimp, excellent. So I'm going with a three. Service was fine, and the nacho plate is a meal by itself. I wish the food was spicier. When I want Mexican I want spicy. read more

Went for the first time last night and was very impressed! Food is very authentic and the waitress was very nice! The atmosphere is great! I always see the place packed on the weekends read more

Meh. I'll some it up: if you are going to charge top prices, have a top experience . Serving cold chips, and small amounts of food for $15 -20 per plate doesn't fly. $9.50 for lunch chicken fajitas and then charging another dollar if you want tortillas?? Could you be any cheaper? Food was good, that's why they get 3 stars. read more

Friendly staff and good food! The food could be a little more spicy (flavorful) but the great staff makes up for it

Good service ,good food, but if your on the clock dont drink they'll rat on you and I meant to say they called my company to tell them I drank 1 beer read more

Mexico Lindo - Don't order drinks, only food.... - Mexican Near Me - Knox, Indiana

Gross food. Beans are always grey looking! And over priced! Not worth going to or ordering from

Will never go there again after tonight !!! My husband just started eating his Gordita and found what we believe to be a piece of a machine. My husband bit into it and hurt his tooth right away, thank God it didn't break. We are 50.. Eat there at your own risk read more

See all

Best Mexican food I've had in a long time the Nacho's plate is killer more for two people but I can eat the whole thing myself the tacos three with beans & rice on point I could go on about this place awesome just come eat you'll love it to ...... read more

Strawberry margarita had kindve a pinkish tone with no taste of strawberry. Plenty of sour in there though. Had the hot wings that were so bad I spit it out after the third one, was just hoping they would get better and I was hungry. Waitress was very nice, not very fast but nice . It's a cute little place, they need to do better with the food. read more

Honestly I don't know if the good reviews for this place were by people who have never had good Mexican food or if they have just been bad the 2 times I've eaten here. Salsa tastes like water and the queso dip runs like water off the chips. I had a wet burrito and a chimichanga on my visits and the food was extremely bland. Just a horrible experience both times. Skip this place and find another. read more

Super good food. Ordered a bunch of tacos, a burrito and some nachos for a group and everyone loved their food. The only gripe is that the nachos were soggy and not crispy at all. However, in their side of chips, the chips were super crunchy and both the guac and salsa were very tasty. The salsa even has a little kick! read more

This is my most favorite restaurant in this small town. The service is great. Everyone is very friendly I really enjoy going here. I gave it a 4 only because the prices are pretty high. You need to plan on spending at least $17 and up per meal. Other than that the food is great!! I recommend bring your wallet though read more

Last night Mexico lindo lost my business I was treated disrespectful and they are very unprofessional. I went in at 10:30 was out by 11:00 had 2 drinks and was wasted I do feel with all my heart there was something added to my drink and wish I could prove it because doing people dirty like that truly means you need closed down. You could kill people by doing what you did I am still today feeling under the weather for your actions I pray you get caught up with your actions before someone gets hurt. For me.and.my friend we will.never go there again it.was.weird how they acted when we left i can handle a drink and a half and 3.tacos without getting sick something was very wrong when I got home I felt my heart racing never again we I go to Mexican Lingo if I could truly rate you i would give you a - 0 read more

The wife and I had not been in for some time and thought we would do something different. Past experiences had been excellent. There were only a few people there, the food took a long time the wife's burrito didn't have all the ingredients that it used to have and was not hot. Service was not up to par either. It's too bad it's not what it used to be. We will not go back read more

Great all around. I love the salsa and chips before the main meal comes. The flautas are to die for!

At best average, location in Portage is a better meal. The chips could be bought at a store, they were not fresh or light in flavor. My meal was luke warm, service is hard to say what the quality was like since I only saw them to take my order and bring my food. Many things are just average at best. With all this being said, where else can you go in Knox. When i informed the server, she stated something about the cheese sauce. Make the drive to something bettet read more

Finally talked mom into going for lunch here. I'm from the Edgewater neighborhood of Chicago so I've experienced many Latin restaurants. Lindo definitely was as good or better. Our server was so patient and friendly (forgot her name but she did tell me she's from Cicero). Love the atmosphere and I can't wait to come back for a margarita. Had the steak wet burrito. Mom had the combo plate. We both finished our plates as well as the chips and salsa. Both hot and mild salsas were tasty. I like to mix them. We'll be back (in I can get mom outta the house)! read more

This is the best bang for your BUCK .... AWESOME WAITRESSES & Great OWNER !!!! There food is 1 of a kind ... You will B back for more promise ..... read more

Mexico Lindo - Lunch specials with chips, guacamole, and beer! - Mexican Near Me - Knox, Indiana

Went for lunch the other day. My friend's drink had gnats in it. I ordered the Lindo Nachos and was so disappointed in the flavor, or lack of, the cheese was so runny that it soaked up the chips. Had a great server who did a great job taking care of us. read more

Do not drink at this restaurant....I got charged $8.95 for a rum and diet...when I ask the manager politely what is wrong with them for charging me so much he insulted me to my face and said that's cheap... I worked as a sever for last 12 years... my food was 8.99.... it's just RIDICULOUS... I worked at restaurants way more high end than that and 6 was top dollar....the manager is a rude asshole...DO NOT GO HERE AT ALL...NO STARS read more

We ordered two meals that we thought would be like $20. We ordered some queso dip too. They brought out chips and salsa that they charged for, which is usually free at most Mexican restaurants. Don't bring out chips, unless they're free. Our bill was $41 for the food that wasn't good and the service was not good either. I added it up and thought it was wrong, so I brought it to their attention. I got a refund of $3.50, which in my mind wasn't enough money back. I found out the chips was .90 and the queso dip was $6.75, which is ridiculous. I ordered white sauce instead of the red sauce and that was an extra $2. It ended up being $50 with tip. I went to Poblanos in Rochester and it was $60 for four of us with tip and the food was much better. Only go here if you want to be overcharged and get dried out chicken with your enchiladas. read more

When I first moved to the area 4 years ago, I was so glad to have a Mexican restaurant near by. At first all of our carry out orders were right on and very good. As time went by, things became inconsistent. The beans might be runny one time and not the next; the rice would have good flavor one time and not the next. Now, the last four carry out orders have been wrong! They messed up cheese quesadillas three times. This last time they put ground beef on them! Disgusting! On a positive note, eating in is delicious and spot on. Would recommend if you order carry out, you check it before you walk out the door. read more

Disappointing lunch here today. The tortilla chips were obviously store-bought and the salsa is best described as flavorless runny red water. read more

Great prices good food salsa sometimes isn't that great but all in all good I forgot my wallet once and only had so much cash on me like 2.00 short and they we're easy to deal with I came back an paid and left a tip for that also very great place and caring staff************ read more

From out of town and all I ask is, have you ever seen the movie "Bridesmaids"? Went there with co-worker for late lunch and we both took two bites of our meal, looked at each other and walked out. The salsa was watery, no taste. Chips were stale and out of a bag, her fajita looked like something out of a horror film, and my steak chimi was wet and soggy, barely fried. The rice was dry, and I swear I thought part of someone's thumb was added to the recipe. Little clumps of rice that honestly looked nasty and in the end tasted worse. I would say enter at your own risk. read more

Best Mexican restaurant in the area. Hosts and hostesses are extremely nice. The food is outstanding and the overall layout of the restaurant is great. read more

In our opinion Mexico Lindo is the best restaurant in Knox. Reasonable prices, authentic Mexican selections, and for the most part excellent service. read more

Mexico Lindo is a bit of a Diamond in the Rough, as it is located, not in a large metro area, but in the Country town of Knox, Indiana! Do not let that fool you.........This is a fine place to have a great meal............Their food is as good as any Mexican restaurant anywhere that boasts of fine Mexican Cuisine. Mexico Lindo is a family friendly sit- down Restaurant That offers good home-made Mexican food at a fair price, offering an outstanding menu to choose from......... The quality is way above average and they are always consistent................Eating at this restaurant has always been an enjoyable experience for my wife and I.... The Management and employees are very personable............. They do have a small bar if you choose to have a beer or drink.....We consider Mexico Lindo one of our "Regular Places" we like to eat at...... read more

Surprised this restaraunt isn't higher on the list. Although, I will say the quality has slacked off a little it is still by far the best restaraunt in Knox. I won't say some of the complaints are wrong because I have noticed these things as well. For example the chips use to be made fresh and now I believe they are store bought because they are terrible. Their food can tend to be only luke warm at times but there tacos, enchiladas, and fajitas are great. I would stay away from their steaks simply because the portions are tiny for some reason and stay away from their tamales the only thing I've had there that is just down right bad other than the chips of course. Ask for your tacos authentic Mexican style with just cilantro and onions, you'll love them. One of the other reviews also mentioned the owner and again would have to agree the owner is very nice and a wonderful person. If your actually looking for taste in Knox this is your only place other than one good pizza parlor but that's another review. read more

Always Really good Mexican food. Love the fajitas and chimichangas! The Mango margaritas rock! Great atmosphere and upbeat music.

Great authentic Mexican food, large portions, affordable price. Great drink specials and the service is friendly and appropriately attentive. Love coming here. read more

Ate here a few years ago and had the steak fajitas. Was tasty but very little steak only a few strips and was a vegetarian fajitas. Wouldn't go back as the value was not there but this past weekend was doing a lot of yard work and family wanted something quick and had a taste for Mexican food. So we decided to try again and ordered the chicken super burritos. Chicken is not that expensive and a few tablespoons of chicken meat was all that was on it. A healthy cup of rice, beans and veggies was the bulk and again not worth the price. If you like veggies but pay for the meat anyway this is the place for you. DISAPPOINTED again. read more

This is my favorite place to eat. The service is excellent and so is the food. I've never had a bad experience going there yet. In fact it might be a Mexico Lindo night tonight. They do need to get a bigger parking lot though it can sometimes hard to find a place to park.. I guess it's because the food & service their is so good. Love it. We go there so often that I no longer have to even ask for the green sauce, they just know to bring it with my food. read more

Sadly, this used to be our favorite restaurant in Knox and the surrounding area. We stopped going to all other mexican options and most other options, and went here exclusively on Friday nights, and often at least once more during the week, for 2 years with 4-8 friends joining us. This place enjoyed a line out the door because of good food, fair prices and great service. In the last 4 months the menu changed (higher prices), the chips are back to store bought (?stale?) and the service went to hell. Poorly staffed and ownership not doing anything about it, the usual 2-3 ladies are running their heads off covering the entire place but not doing a good job because logistically they can't. The connection, but no coincidence, is when the Portage location opened. We haven't seen the owner in months. Chewy is neglecting this location and it's getting worse. We left on two recent Fridays. This past Friday was the last straw. While we stayed, the hostess and bartender covered our table along with several other tables themselves, after we got up twice asking for someone to take a drink order. They can't possibly survive this way when the patio opens. It seems there are a lot of young men running, more than ever, but the problem is they don't speak English and can only run the food and then you have to wait for the ladies to come back to get another drink, napkins, salsa, anything! If he doesnt hire help for them, he will lose droves of customers and the higher prices won't make up the difference. And then back to Plymouth we shall trek, to Yolanda's and MI Camino. read more
