TOP 9 Mexican restaurants in Prague
Where to enjoy real Mexico in Prague?
Getting a proper Mexican food in Prague, no tex-mex, wasn't exactly easy just a few years ago. However, with the development of Prague's gastronomic scene and the wave of Mexican immigrants, Mexican cuisine has begun to look better and nowadays you can enjoy tacos, enchiladas, quesadillas and other typical dishes or drinks at a number of places. A common feature of all Mexican restaurants in Prague is the bet on authenticity, fresh ingredients and homemade recipes.
We've put together our picks for the best Mexican restaurants in Prague that are not only popular with locals, but are also popular with visitors to Prague.
La Casa Blů
Address: Kozí 15, Prague 1
GPS: 50.09114, 14.42181
https://lacasablu.cz/
A cult place for many native Praguers, as the popular Czech film “Samotáři” was filmed there. This Mexican restaurant is located in the city centre, however it's a great place to eat at standard prices. It was founded in 1996 by a Chilean from Prague and the place still has a special Latin American charm. The interior is older, but cozy. We especially recommend the nachos.

Cantina is a cozy Mexican restaurant in Prague operating since 1997, making it one of the oldest places with Mexican food in Prague.

The huge selection of Mexican tequila is worth mentioning. The restaurant can be found below Petřín in Prague's Újezd district, so you can end a romantic walk with a visit of this nice place.

Las Adelitas
Address: 4 branches
Prague 1: Petrská 23, GPS: 50.09185, 14.43466
Prague 1: Malé náměstí 457, GPS: 50.08634, 14.41949

Prague 3: Lucemburská 6, GPS: 50.07858, 14.45261
https://www.lasadelitas.cz/
Whichever of the four branches of Las Adelitas you choose, you will have the feeling that you are not eating Mexican food in Prague, but maybe right in Mexico City. The walls are a bit dingy, the tables are wobbly, but that's what makes the place all the more charming. The dishes have authentic Spanish names and taste authentic. Their frozen margaritas are also famous. The service can be a little slow, but nothing that should deter you from visiting. We recommend making a reservation a few days in advance, it's often crowded.

Barabizna can be found in the Zbraslav district of Prague, accessible by public transport from the Smichovsky railway station. The experience is the interior itself, which is thematically decorated in the spirit of Mexico and with photos of the painter Frida Kahlo. Dishes are served on traditional plates and the menu is very wide. Those who like large portions will especially enjoy it. And when it all comes together, it's the ultimate Mexican experience.

When you walk into this place, it's already clear that everything here revolves around Mexico. The original paintings on the walls, the colours, the dusty tables, all contribute to the atmosphere. You don't expect luxury here, but you do expect a menu of honest Mexican food. The prices are reasonable, the staff very nice and helpful.

Fosil
address: 2 branches
Prague 1: Náprstkova 214/7, GPS: 50.08448, 14.41578
Prague 5: Na Zlíchově 17, GPS: 50.04694, 14.40798
https://www.fosil.cz
A small, pleasant restaurant with two branches, owned by a native Mexican. Whether you visit the one in the more backwater Zlíchov district (connected from Prague's Anděl district) or the newer restaurant in Prague 1, you won't be disappointed. Fosil stands out for its authentic service, music and decor. Guests recommend trying the Sopa de Tortilla soup, which is differently spicy every time but always with lots of vegetables, nachos and cilantro. For 10 or more people, an interesting dinner can be ordered in the form of a Mexican taco buffet, where you can fill corn tortillas with different fillings and season to your liking. You can also create your own burritos via the app or online!
