Magarita here never disappoints.. Always give you a good kick for the night. Fish taco is not to be missed
Andre BuserMarch 7, 2013Cute little place, great food if you like tacos, quesadilla and all the other Mex-Tex stuff. Not cheap though but good quality. Tables are a bit low if you are tall and have long legs...
Misty HaycockMarch 30, 2017Found out about the food here from savanna salon who will let you order and eat it right from the salon chair, just a few doors down. Some real good Mexican wraps delivered with a smile -great service
Really great Taqueria that would hold its own in California. The fact that its smack dab in the middle of Bangkok makes it a true find. Try the Chiliquiles for brunch.
Richard BurkhillOctober 14, 2021Really nice vibe and colourful inside, great Mexican food options - some I’ve never seen before like the breakfast vegetarian burrito with chips inside, amazing!
Lee Soon GuanApril 3, 2015I have to say this is one of the better Mexican restaurant in Bangkok. Really good balance of ingredients and good portions of fillings. Love it!
ArtNovember 26, 2011Become no1 of Mexican food in town in my mind!! Can't miss the Fundido (Italian Sausage, Cheese or Beef)....and Beef Fajita...it's heaven!! ....lots more to try actually....love to come again...
Cedric CharpenetJanuary 21, 2016The carnitas taco was great. The guacamole was also very good. Service is good, speak good English. Stunning view. Gluten free options.
Great food. Recently redone menu. Much easier to read. Everything can be ordered veg. Best Mexican in Bangkok. List of dishes to tackle only for the super hungry is attached. Read more
Beef tacos usually very good. Quesadillas - shrimp also recommended.
Shari McCulloughNovember 18, 2013Some of the best Mexican I've had in Asia. Don't overlook the salsa bar. But note that service can be uneven & don't bother with the chorizo filling.- Derek HessNovember 30, 2016I have the idea the quality went down since they opened another location. The wings, taco's and margaritas are / were great.
My all time favorite Mexican food place although other ppl are not happy with the price or portion. I tried other places but always come back here.- The best Mexican food in Bangkok! Food taste so good, service is average.
Michael MenesesJanuary 11, 2015Lo más cercano a México en Bangkok. As a Mexican living in BKk, this was the best Mexican food I had in a while.- Misty HaycockOctober 28, 2016Great selection of Salsa here! So many different choices to choose from. The wraps are my fave though.
Recently expanded. You can't really go wrong, but purists know that Mexi-style tacos on corn tortillas with al Pastor or traditional carnitas are the path of the righteous ;-)
Yee SommayaNovember 17, 2017Best Mexican in BKK so far. This branch has a salsa bar and imo the best service of all.
- Make sure you try Chimichangas. Truly amazing! Difficult to find a seat on Saturday evening. Book in advance.
Pavel HackerAugust 9, 2015Margaritas, steak fajitas, salads. Nachos are so so. Don't miss the self-serving table with salsas.
Rushil DedhiaMarch 12, 2018Amazing, chilled place. Do try the mushroom & asparagus crunch wraps, also the salsas. Try as many as possible!
Torzin SFebruary 9, 2019One of the nicest Mexican food in Thailand. Full with customers especially U.S. graduates who don’t know Mexican food but pretend to know it
Job KongkalaiDecember 17, 2016Best mexican in town. This branch has a full menu but the one in emquatier has diff menu (which i dont prefer) they dont even have proper taco at emq branch
BeeeeMarch 1, 2015Margarita is good, but still couldn't reach the highest score I had in Beijing, 7 for this restaurant.
Delicious Mexican dishes, great to sit outside and enjoy the food & atmosphere.
Aor JitthipNovember 7, 2010Easy to find, laid back atmosphere, food is great, and Corona tastes really good here for some reason :) I love their shrimp quesadilla, steak Cali tacos and steak burrito mojado.
Beatrice Le mercierOctober 3, 2014Margaritas are the bomb! Salsa tasting bar..great food. Can be very loud and super packed !
Rob SharpJanuary 14, 2014Great food, nice strong white sangria and couldn't do enough for our kids. Love it!
Randall HuntJune 21, 2015I can't recommend this place. A lot of the food is frozen (taco shells) and the staff forget things on orders (hold the sour cream) even if you ask in Thai. The meats all have a very bland flavor.
S NSeptember 22, 2015La Monita serves American style Mexican food. This is not authentic Mexican but that's okay. The food is fine but quite overpriced. If this is the best Mexican place in BKK then I am very sad : (
Natalia SmirnovaFebruary 12, 2014The best Mexican food in town! I love it! Green salad and Cheese Enchiladas must try!
Tang KalayanamitAugust 20, 2014You know how sometimes Mexican food really sucks? Well La Monita makes it NOT suck ALL the time! Worth the time for sure!
Verónica MBJanuary 5, 2015I was in the mood for Mex food and after reading the comments I was expecting better food.nachos without guacamole! For sure was not my best mexican food..and the place is not really cozy.good service
Grady HopkinsApril 26, 2017Near US Embassy and All Season Bldg. Easy walk from Aetas Residence. Near Ploen Chit BTS. Great food.
GregWasThereAugust 16, 2013Not bad. Go for the tacos platos ( 3 tacos). The queso fondino is no fine food but do the job. The lemede soda (lemonade) is simple but refreshing.
Jim MJuly 12, 2016probably the best Mexican food I've had in Bangkok but doesn't compare to back home
Beef Crunch star is awesome...guacamole is good but not enough of it is served for the price.
Jon MooreJanuary 17, 2018Great, authentic Mexican food which is way nice than the Tex-Mex you usually find 🌮
Unbelievable this place, tastes better than most stuff out of SF mission.- Grady HopkinsNovember 27, 2016WOW! That I was home in San Diego when I tore into this! Chimichanga! So tasty!
Yep...no more Sunrise for me. Quality of everything is a big step ahead here. Tacos al pastor are divine. Skip the nachos though...but go for everything else.
Paul ArkJune 25, 2013There aren't a lot of Mexican restaurants in Bangkok, but this is certainly the best.
Giovanni InnellaAugust 12, 2014Good Mexican. Tacos are better crispy. Regular sized casadilla is big enough

Nilaya Pavachoat- 8.0
"My shampoo, haircut and blow out were great. My mani/pedi also was fantastic. The woman was very gentle and meticulous. A bit pricey for Thai standards (700 THB plus 250 THB for color for nails)"
Lyndsey Johnson - 7.5
"Craft beer on tap with junk food snacks from below. Friendly owner and a surgical theme. Less intimidating than giant tap menus at other craft beer spots. Needs beer flights on menu."
