On a beautiful day when the sun is shining from behind a few wispy clouds, nothing pairs better than zesty, spicy, savory Mexican cuisine. When you’re hit with the craving for a crispy tortilla chip dunked in creamy avocado dip or spicy stuffed peppers with sour cream, head to one of these Mexican restaurants in Santa Clara, CA to satisfy your hunger.
1. Puesto Santa Clara
Inspired by the way cuisine can represent a culture, this family restaurant located at 2752 Augustine Dr #110 delivers authentic Mexican fare in every dish. Their signature use of blue corn distinguishes them from other restaurants and contains more protein and health benefits than the typically used yellow corn.
Their chefs are always hunting for new ways to spin the classics and even visit Mexico City often in their search for treasured traditions, so the menu varies from season to season. Be sure to inquire about their taco of the month for an expert recommendation!
2. La Veracruzana Restaurant
Cruise down to 1510 Jackson Street in your 2022 Subaru Ascent for an authentic taste of Veracruz that will leave your taste buds celebrating. Start with a complimentary basket of fresh, crispy tortilla chips and chunky house-made salsa while you peruse the menu full of tantalizing options made with fresh ingredients.
Order the Chile Relleno for roasted and stuffed poblano peppers with a spicy habanero sauce or a Carne Asada Super Burrito for a plump meal bursting with flavor. We recommend the Pollo Enchiladas topped with their savory green sauce.
3. Lupita’s Taqueria
Located at 2341 El Camino Real, this local gem features a beautifully rendered beach scene mural that enhances the casual vibe, just like a vacation to the white sand beaches of Cancún. Keep an eye on their rotating monthly specials for exclusive items like the Torta Milanesa De Pollo, a classic Mexican sandwich with refried beans, jalapenos, guacamole, and tender breaded chicken breast.
4. Pedro’s Restaurant & Cantina
When you find yourself craving chips and queso on an exquisitely sunny day, head over to 3935 Freedom Circle and dine on their patio. This elegant restaurant gives a modern flare to the traditional Mexican dishes it serves, such as the Enchiladas Las Hadas with Chile spiced crab meat and shrimp served with sliced avocados.
5. El Amigo Burrito
You’ll find this colorful cantina at 4485 Stevens Creek Blvd with traditional and contemporary Mexican dishes. Find out why locals rave about their deliciously golden, crisp, crunchy tacos, and their mouth-watering, lip-smacking enchilada sauce. Their most popular item is the notorious El Amigo Burrito Supreme which comes slathered in rich, creamy cheese sauce.
