Five of the best Mexican restaurants in Miami
Tacos are always a good idea. Thankfully, Miami offers a wide-ranging line-up of great Mexican restaurants. Here are five you should try when the craving hits.
1. Tacos El Carnal
This cash-only eatery is known for its authentic "tacos de lengua" (made with beef tongue), carnitas, al pastor, tostadas, tortas and burritos," per the specialties section of its Yelp profile. El Carnal is ideal for a casual friend date or a late-night taco run. The building may not impress at first sight, but the tacos will definitely impress your stomach—which is all that matters.

Mexican eatery meets club night; that's Mayami. The restaurant offers unique Tulum-inspired Mexican dishes and original Mayan cocktails in stunning decor.

Talavera is a modern, well-designed restaurant that's been serving some of the best Mexican dishes in Miami for over a decade.
