Mexico Restaurant & Bar, Atlantic City

Great, authentic Mexican food unlike anywhere else around. I have always had a great meal here and won't go to any other Mexican places around because they pale in comparison. The outside looks unassuming but it is worth your time to try it out.

My family and I are from the south- where great Mexican food is abundant- have been searching for a NJ restaurant that serves athentic Mexican food- We found it here!!!!! One of the best meals that we have ever had- the very best mexican food we have ever put in our mouths- and two of us have even dined in Mexico! This is top notch- homeade everything- so thankful! We will go back!!!!!!

Too often does Mexican food appear to be mountainous plates of unidentifiable slop swimming in dark pools of liquid. This restaurant is refreshingly different. Clean and tasteful decor and waitstaff, clean and flavorful food. No puddles of grease here. Their cheese is outstanding. One surprising con - a complete lack of vegetarian menu options.

try the mole enchiladas! real authentic mexican ingredients and flavors. careful though, the margaritas are strong!

This streetfront place is painted white, which belies the colorful interior. Warning to women entering alone...you have to walk past the bar to get in. Be prepared to be stared at by men drinking at the bar. They are not subtle! Once you get past the bar, there are two dining areas, trimmed out with colorful paper signs. Good drinks and an assortment of Mexican beverages. Traditional Mexican food, with good cheese used!

An all time dinner favorita! However, there are no lunch specials and it can get expensive for a bite. The chimichangas are soft and not so good. The Torta chicken and beef sandwich is only $6.50 and the best sandwich I have had in a while! Overall its a tacky resaurant with good food but a lil too expensive for the setting.

I live just down the street from here and have tried it three times, each time hoping that it would be better than the last. The service is fair, the food just OK. One member of our party had a chicken dish each time we went, and it tasted old every time. This is more of a bar and young peoples hang out, because it is inexpensive, than a fine dining experience.

Our family, including our sons aged 7 and 9, had a Saturday night treat at Mexico in AC on 10/13/07. It was perfect in every respect. When Mexico first opened in the mid-90s, we lived across the street and ate there often. The food was always plentiful, delicious, and reasonably priced. It's still the same today. The owner, Marcos, warmly greets customers at the door. Even when the place is very busy, he takes the time to make people feel at home. Our server was prompt and observant. Never were the water or iced tea glasses empty or the dishes from the last course uncollected. The menu was filled with various dishes authentically prepared in the manner of Marcos' childhood home state of Oaxaca, in southwestern Mexico. My favorites are the dishes served with chocolate mole although this Saturday, I opted for the Enchiladas Zuisas. The enchiladas were filled with torn strips of fresh chicken breast, covered with Oaxaca cheese and splashed with a green mole. The mole was light with a chilie/peppery flavor that complimented, rather than overpowered, the delicate cheese and chicken flavors. Refried beans and rice comleted the entree. The ambience of the restaurant is warm. With English and Spanish speaking customers, the wait staff switch fluidly back and forth as they serve different tables. People smile and give friendly "holas" and "hellos" to one another, giving the place a neighborhood feel which is equally welcoming to out-of-towners. When our taste buds ask for something from below the Rio Grande, Mexico in Atlantic City is where we'll go.
