Best Mexican Restaurants in the Lehigh Valley

Fiesta Ole is my favorite in the Valley. The people there are always smiling and the atmosphere is friendly. With the perfect portion sizes, you won't leave hungry or overstuffed!
There are nachos for every palate, in addition to salad, taquitos, and empanadas. And the good news is, they're all under $7!
There are many chicken and steak entrees on the menu for under $14. A T-bone steak with baked potato and salad is available for those who wish to forgo the spice. Burritos, enchiladas, tacos, chalupas and tamales are on the menu as part of combination platters or as a la carte selections. Vegetarian combo platters are also available. Combination dinners are under $9.
Don't forget, this isn't the 'Tex Mex' that many chain restaurants serve. The spinach quesadillas are loaded with fresh spinach and Mexican cheese - not the shredded cheddar that is typical of chain restaurants.
La Lupita
4 West Fourth Street
Bethlehem, PA 18015

Want some great Mexican food at a great price? Stop in La Lupita in South Bethlehem for a sit-down meal that won't drain your wallet, with entrees under $10.
La Lupita is a casual family restaurant. The homemade chips are terrific and the people are friendly. (Yes, there's definitely a friendliness theme when it comes to authentic Mexican restaurants!) Entrees are real Mexican, and mostly meat - which includes beef, chicken, and chorizo. You will find some dishes unfamiliar if you've previously frequented Tex-Mex eateries - so go ahead and try something new!
Cali Burrito
3104 Hamilton Blvd.
Allentown, PA 18103
610-351-1791

Welcome Vegetarians!
OK, so Cali Burrito isn't an authentic Mexican restaurant, but don't let that stop you from going to Cali when you're in the mood for Mexican. It's fast food, yet it isn't. The possibilities are endless with the "Build Your Own" Burritos and rice bowls. In addition to the standard chicken, beef, pork, and steak, you can choose from falafel, chorizo, grilled veggies, scrambled eggs, and tofu.
There are several special burritos, including breakfast burritos. Tacos, salads, and quesadillas also come with vegetarian choices. To top it all off, the fixin's bar includes everything from pico de gallo, and hot sauce to pickles and cabbage.
You can get a good healthy lunch for under $10, but you will have to get out of your car for this fast food!
