Taqueria Mexico Lindo — Restaurant in Lynn

Authentic is a word over used in the Mexican restaurant arena here in the U.S. I have seen the word plastered over every Mexican restaurant in the north shore. At Mexico Lindo you’ll find a restaurant that is undoubtedly familiar if you’re a native Mexican without having to be “authentic” in name only. A small yet punchy flower in Lynn. It’s menu isn’t overly complicated, nor is it pretentious in its humble presentation. This is exactly what you expect of a small Mexican joint. Simplicity is paramount in preparation of Mexican cuisine. Here you’ll find tacos that are simple, no need for any gimmicks. When a Mexican mom in Mexico cooks for you she isn’t trying to be ornate. She’s utilitarian and humble in her choice of ingredients. She’s generous with her servings and above all else she is loving in her cooking. Mexico Lindo is a small Mexican restaurant deserving of its use of Mexican in its description of restaurant. A rare thing here in the area. Is it the best Mexican food I have had? No. But it’s an interpretation worthy of praise and worthy of respect. The owner is a Mexican mother and it shows. We thank you for...

Ordered tacos on the phone to take away. I ordered four grilled steak, one barbacoa, one campechano and one chorizo. I honestly wanted to love them because I always support small businesses but I was disappointed.

Additionally, there are two different kinds of salsa included with the order, one mild and the other medium spicy. Cons: The only half-decent taco is the barbacoa one (slow-cooked pulled pork) in terms of the quality of the meat. OMG, I could not believe all four steak tacos and the campechano taco had their meat replaced by what looked and tasted like the scraps that you get off the grill after you have grilled steak, the shaves that you actually throw in the trash. There was not a single piece of steak. I do...

I’m a big fan of Mexican food but this restaurant by far has my heart! The food is very authentic and you can tell it is made with LOVE. Don’t expect it to taste like Chipotle (not real mexican food) but it tastes better than that. The pricing for the food is unbelievably cheap for the amount and size of the portions. If you’re a regular, they do a good job remembering your order too. The owners of the restaurant not only manage but they also help serve and cook. When’s the last time you seen an owner cook and serve your food? Overall, AMAZING SERVICE AND EVEN MORE...
