The food here is consistently fresh, flavorful, and authentic, with standout dishes like the chicken burrito, Mariachi Plate, and taco birria that keep me coming back regularly. The staff are friendly and efficient, creating a welcoming atmosphere despite occasional language barriers, making it a reliable choice for quick, satisfying Mexican meals whether dining in or taking out.

We've been going to Mexican Mariachi pretty much ever since they opened. They added a second location in Hamilton last year (their first location is in Ewing). It's just excellent fresh Mexican food with warm and friendly service. Mariachi is family-owned and run and it shows in everything that they do, and with how well they treat their customers.

Their prices are more than reasonable, with big portions. The only other Mexican places around that are on par with this have much higher prices (Tortugas).

We have traveled a lot throughout Mexico and Central America and tend to like our food on the spicy side. So we just ask them to "kick it up" for us, and the staff is always happy to oblige.

Our absolute favorites are perhaps the fish tacos and steak tacos - they are just so fresh and tasty. The fish tacos are positively off the hook. They won't tell us what's in that special sauce of theirs but it is SO GOOD. The steak tacos are just so traditional, with good sized portions of rice and refried beans, and oh-so-yummy."Pico de Gallo" on the tacos - this is a type of homemade salsa - a flavorful mix of fresh onion, tomato, cilantro, and lemon juice. We often get extra of this and they'll kick it up with some fresh chili if we like. Oh yes, please! :-)

The chorizo quesadilla is awesome! It's very rich and flavorful. So we'll often order one for the table and share it as a side dish, rather than a solo entree.

The specials are usually worth a second look. Even if it's not "on the special" for that day, they will usually be able to accommodate us when we want to have our "Speedy Gonzales". I can't even describe it but it is darn good.

The burritos are flavorful and huge - that is one big portion. We often get the pork or steak burrito but all of them are good. We usually can't finish these but that is ok - because this is one place where you simply MUST leave room for dessert.

The tres leches is simply to die for. It is absolute heaven. The flan is quite good but instead we prefer to get their "impossible" - it's a "choco-flan" - a layer of rich chocolate cake with a layer of flan on top of it.

If there is only one thing that we wish that they did have, it's delivery. Apparently, they are working on this and we look forward to it. But ... then we'd miss out on seeing some of the nicest and most hospitable people in the area.
