Delicious food and wonderful service! Staff are so friendly and helpful. Can't wait to come back.

This hole in the wall serves amazing Mexican food. We ordered pork carnitas tacos and shrimp quesadillas. They were delicious. Their version of chips and salsa was refried beans poured over homemade tortilla chips and topped with cotija cheese. What a treat! Staff was good and courteous. read more

This is an authentic decent Mexican restaurant. I initially had little trouble speaking with the staff because I don't speak Spanish. However, they do have English speaking staffs who helped us ordering the food. The taste is really good, staffs are friendly and prices are normal. You should give a try. read more

I'm trying to visit more of my local Hispanic options. This is no easy feat as this area seems to be spawning more businesses each time I check. ML was closest to me, so I called in a takeout with minimal language barrier. The shop was empty at 2:15 save for the mother and child who greeted this gringo with just a touch of surprise. The cute and clean room has about 12 tables and was gently air conditioned. This is definitely hole in the wall, but not in a scary way. Not being able to see the menu I blindly ordered chicken tacos. The chef( I imagine) asked me what kind of chicken I wanted. This caught me off guard and I said whatever usually comes with this item. It turned out to be a pulled chicken that was all white meat and still juicy and slightly seasoned. It was tossed with onions and cilantro and came with radish and lime plus two green sauces, one was spiced up with the addition of jalapeño. These were good and generous tacos for $7, but I would have preferred fowl that had spent some time on the plancha. I think I would try something other than tacos here to better gauge what this spot does best. 3.5 more research required Yelps read more

Authentic/ delicious food and staff is great. Thanks for the great food on cinco de Mayo!

Mexico Lindo Restaurant sits on a rather forlorn strip of South Broad Street in Hamilton, a few blocks before you get to the Trenton line. Don't be deterred by the urban decay visible in the area, because once you walk inside this unassuming storefront you cross the border into Mexico. Vibrant colors, a hodgepodge of odds and ends tables covered with more colors, a HD TV showing the latest soaps from Ciudad Juarez, and a hand painted mural of the Mexican Eagle grasping a Rattlesnake emblazed on the wall. I was surprised I was not asked for my passport. And, the food was very good, as there is an ever growing population of excellent Mexican, Guatemalan, Honduran, Salvadoran and even Puerto Rican shops in the vicinity - making for healthy competition. My Torta Milanese de Pechuga was a fat boy sandwich on an oversized roll filled with Breaded Chicken Cutlet, Lettuce, Tomato, String Cheese, Mayo and a bit of Chipotle Sauce. Delicious. It was really too loaded to just pick up by hand and stuff into mouth. Knife and fork were needed to get everything into my mouth collectively. The accompanying Crinkle Cut Fries were also above average. My most pleasant surprise was ordering the Jugo de Melon drink. This was the water added version of a milk shake made from Watermelon, and it came served in the aluminum blender container. It was totally refreshing. My Spanish was just adequate for a few short conversations about the restaurant, and to permit me to compliment them on a terrific little joint. The owner and his family came out to eat while I was there, and I made it clear the food was delicioso, and that I would revuelve pronto. read more

Being that it's almost impossible to find a Mexican restaurant in Trenton, let alone one that actually makes good, authentic food, I will give this place 4 stars. I came here for the first time and overall wasn't disappointed. I ordered enmoladas, which weren't on the menu but they made it for me, and my husband ordered a tri Mexican platter. Both were actually really good! The mole sauce was flavorful and had a nice balance of spices and flavors and definitely tasted authentic. The meat on my husband's dish was cooked well, not dry at all. The only disappointing thing was that the chips and salsa were both not even close to being homemade. The chips were from a bag and the salsa roja was straight from the bottle. The salsa verde maybe was real but it was hard to tell. If I go to a legit Mexican restaurant...I feel like all of the salsas should be homemade, never out of a jar. They don't accept cards so bring cash. But all in all you won't be disappointed. Friendly and attentive staff too, which is a rarity is Trenton area restaurants. I would go back. read more

Mexico Lindo Restaurant - Enmoladas estriol de Mexico! - Mexican Near Me - Hamilton, New Jersey

Probably the best Mexican food in Trenton. I lived a month in Guadalajara and this is authentic Mexican. Their burritos are huge and full of meat. Delicious. The carne tacos are excellent, especially if you're a cilantro lover like me. The only reason I'm not giving the fifth star is the service is a little lacking. It could be my imagination but I felt like the waitress was giving me the cold shoulder because I was the only gringo in the place. I asked for water and utensils and got neither. After a second request i she put water down and walked away. Otherwise, excellent food. The place is small. read more

Came across this spot on here and gave it a shot. The food is fantastic. Onion steak is worthy of returning for. Lamb stew was phenomenal. Enchiladas are great too. The service is great. Quick to greet and bring chips and salsa even if you only sat down to look at the menu and order to go. Only downside is that not all staff speaks english. read more

Probably the best place to get tacos in Trenton. The portions are great and the prices reasonable. I highly recommend the Carnitas tacos, they're my all time favorite. The location is usually never packed so service is very attentive. Be warned that the establishment seems to be family owned, so there may be a language barrier for non-Spanish speaking customers. If you dine-in you get chips and salsa as an appetizer. Another tip: if you get tacos ask for the "hecho a mano" tortillas which means hand made, they will charge you an extra dollar but the flavor is incomparable to regular flour tortillas. read more

was on military orders for a week and the Soldiers wanted to eat sandwiches from a sub shop. I decided to try this nice little restaurant. The people were so sweet and the food was fresh, came out quick and the restaurant was very clean and neat. read more

Save yourself a headache don't go to this place every time I get food from here it takes too long or they give you tiny servings, they never once have upgraded the place since I can rememberel or try to make any affords to be more welcoming to the customers. read more

This place always goes above and beyond with making their food. I can tell the take pride in what they serve you. I've eaten here for takeout numerous times for my employees and they never have disappointed. I will always recommend this business to anyone wanting authentic Mexican food. Amazing flavor and so fresh. I love it. read more

I'm Always looking for traditional mexican food- which is hard to find in Jersey seeing that everything is usually Dominican or Puerto Rican food. This place was no dissapointed. The chips and salsa set the mood with a spicey blend that you couldn't get enough of. The tacos come in an order of 3- but you can't pick more than 2 meat options. Rather inconvenient since you are paying $3 per taco. But the flavor was good and the barbacoa wasn't a kick in your face goat. The torta was well seasoned and full of all the traditional toppings. The drinks where kind of pricey; $4 for horchata that comes in an aluminum cup, like the cups they make milkshakes in. Planning on going back. But, the biggest downsides was the fact that it was CASH ONLY!! They didn't tell us untill we tried paying with card. Usually places like this tell you from the beginning or at least have a sign at the entrance. BEWARE- bring sufficent money's! read more

The tacos are AMAZING! Best Mexican tacos in Trenton. Also their natural juices are always worth getting!

Food was very tasty. Cash only though, even though Yelp lists as accepting credit. The slowest service ever. With the options of other Mexican restaurants around, this one won't have a repeat visit from us. read more

What an amazing place. Brightly colored. And great food. My compliments to the chef today. Everything we ordered was great. We will return. read more

The food here is always amazing! My favorites are the mojarra a la Diabla con Camerones!! Perfect crisp to the fish and the spicy sauce is so delicious. The portion is huge. Also I really love their tacos, carne asada to be exact and for extra yum opt for their homemade tortilla for just a $1 more. The prices are very fair. By far my favorite Mexican spot in town. Highly recommend! read more

Delicious, authentic Mexican food! Great, friendly service in a local downtown style hole in the wall.

Fantastic This place reminds me of a place Anthony Bourdain Would visit I was skeptical when I walked in But left knowing I WILL be back. One of my dinner guests Asked the chef "what do you recommend ?" Brilliant move Chef cooked up a meal that could serve 4 easily I worked at chi Chi s as a kid so I learned basics and love of Mexican food This place is NOTHING like chi chi s We were there very late Yet the chef and waitress were awesome Best mex restaurant I have eaten at in 20 years Very intimate gem that you will have nothing but fond memories of. read more

This place is great! A hidden gem in Trenton. The place is pretty small, but it's rarely crowded and there's always been a table available immediately. When you sit, a waitress greets you with with chips and two different delicious salsas. I've always ordered burritos, and they are the size of a small baby. The beef is seasoned so well and it's so tender, and the burritos are topped with queso fresco and sour cream. I've never left disappointed. To top it off, my bill for two people to eat averages around $20. I always look forward to visiting this place. read more
