Best Mexican restaurants in Barcelona
If you love Mexican food or are convinced to finally give it a try you can have a look around Barcelona and you will be able to find some really awesome Mexican restaurants! Mexican food is a fusion of flavours. The arrival of Spanish influences to Mexican lands contributed ingredients to what we now know. Mexican cuisine is recognised as one of the largest in the world.
Barcelona is a city filled with international influences and while we encourage you to take advantage of the SEAFOOD, ham and other specialities of Catalunya we would also like to suggest trying out the following fantastic Mexican restaurants. So get your appetite ready for a wide variation of burritos, tacos and nachos.
#1 El Chihuahua Restaurant
El Chihuahua offers a friendly environment serving typical Mexican food made with local products. Now 15 years old, and located on Passeig MARAGALL, it is still one of the best Mexican restaurants in Barcelona. It is known for its decoration, which represents, in a very peculiar way, a village in the Mexican desert. The restaurant is frequented by young and cheerful people and it is filled with good vibes.
