Best Mexican Food in Midland
Neighborhood: Midland
Midland, TX 79701
United States of America
For a city with a population just over 100,000, Midland, Texas offers a nice array of dining choices for those with finer tastes as well as someone looking for a grab-and-go lunch. Mexican food is no exception. Below is a short sampler of restaurants serving up good Mexican food at reasonable prices. In no particular order, and of my opinion only:

Martinez Bakery

Most famous for their tortas, Mexican-style sandwiches, and their great selection of pastries. This local bakery and restaurant is very consistent in serving traditional Mexican food at reasonable prices. Besides tortas, the restaurant also offers burritos, tacos and other local favorites. The bakery offers preservative-free pastries baked fresh daily.

Rosa's Café

With three locations in Midland, Rosa's Café is a local favorite for parents and teens alike. Seen by some as a local hangout, and others as a family tradition, Rosa's, as it is affectionately referred to, serves up fresh tortillas, enchiladas, fajitas, tacos and other favorites. As far as being "real" Mexican food, that is largely up for debate. The food is more Tex-Mex, but it is undeniable that it is more than satisfying. For fast-food style Mexican food, the prices are a little steep, but it is still a local favorite serving up great food daily.

On the Border Mexican Grill & Cantina

This casual family-style restaurant serves up some of the best Mexican food and a chips and salsa that should never end. Also offered are appetizers, soups, salads, healthy choices, grilled items, a "taco stand" to choose from a variety of different tacos selections and dessert. Some favorites to look out for are the chicken and sour cream enchiladas, empanadas, quesadillas, fajitas and pretty much anything off the grill.

Jorge's Mexican Cafe

Jorge's, with two locations in Midland and one in Odessa, offers daily drink and lunch specials. Weekends also set up for early morning breakfast specials to be enjoyed.

There will be many who disagree, but for me, Jorge's hands down has the best chicken enchiladas with green sauce. There is absolutely no comparison. The enchiladas alone put Jorge's on my "best" list. A close second is their chile rellenos and fajitas.

Taco Villa

With three convenient locations in Midland, Taco Villa is one of the best grab-and-go stops for great Mexican food. It's cheap, it's fast and it's always good. The meat burritos are the one of life's simpler pleasures. The tacos, fajita burritos, fried apple burritos and family pack meals never fail to please even the pickiest of eaters.

Vickie's Burritos

Located just outside of downtown Midland, Vickie's Burritos is a like a hidden gem. Cheap and delicious, there is no better combination. The breakfast burritos are great in bacon or chorizo. A personal favorite is their steak, potato and cheese burritos. I can eat them for weeks on end.

    Yes, there are tons of local Mexican food places in Midland. I know, I've tried alot of them (La Bodega, Cancun Grill, Gerardo's, Casa Lopez, Casa del Sol, Dona Anita, Oscar's, Jumburrito, Charlas, etc.) but to me these are the ones that I would recommend to others since these are places that I consistently frequent. Main reason: because the food is good. But you know, that is my opinion and everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

    Just because some are chains doesn't make their food not good, just as being local doesn't automatically make the food good either. It's all a matter of taste and preference :) Thanks for commenting though.

    There a tons of great local Mexican food places in Midland, yet you somehow manage to choose On the Border, Rosa's, and Taco Villa chains. Pathetic.
