Best Mexican restaurants in Denmark

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Sanchez in Copenhagen, and it was an extraordinary experience from start to finish. The customer service was impeccable, with the staff being both attentive and knowledgeable, enhancing the overall dining experience.

The food was equally remarkable, showcasing a perfect blend of creativity and traditional flavors. The star of the meal was undoubtedly the dark chocolate mousse. This dessert was a masterpiece, topped with a sweet salsa macha and cream, then finished with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and roasted kelp. The sweet salsa macha, made with ancho chiles, brown sugar, coconut oil, olive oil, toasted pumpkin seeds, toasted sesame seeds, and candied pecans, added a unique and delightful twist that elevated the mousse to new heights.

The mussels were another highlight, cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. Each dish left me in awe, making Sanchez a must-visit for anyone seeking an exceptional dining experience in Copenhagen.

Overall, Sanchez offers a beautiful blend of innovative cuisine and outstanding service. Highly recommended!

This is a genuine Mexican restaurant with local touches. The tacos are small like street tacos, and with delicious filling. Not totally tex-mex, but more like Southern Mexico.
The restaurant is comfortable and quiet we with some outdoor seating in good weather.

Delicious food, expertly made and very authentic. We had the Tres Tacos, the Gringa chicken tacos, guacamole, salsa, chips, rice and beans all super fresh. Highly recommend. Nice relaxed staff too and great atmosphere on a Friday, lunchtime.

This place is ELITE; I’ve lived and traveled through Europe for the past 8 years and this is by far the best Mexican food I’ve ever had in that time period. Barbacoa was perfectly seasoned and my wife enjoyed her vegetarian-friendly Soy-Chorizo.

I’ll definitely be back my next time in Copenhagen.

The food was amazing, the guy serving us was super nice as well, you can sit in or outside.
Too bad we had to leave Denmark already, we would definitely come back!!

We visited Tacopop with my wife and we really enjoyed it. The food was excellent and the people working there were very polite and kind. I recommend this place to everyone.

Bland food. Came here after seeing the good reviews, but food was lacking flavour and/or spice and fairly pricey with the add-ons. Loads of good restaurants in the area, so would advise going somewhere else.

Client dinner that I paid for.

Good food. Bit pricey. Asked if we wanted guacamole with all meals... we said yes... paid 29dkk extra per person.

Asked for a glass of iced tap water and told tap water comes in cans... then sold San Pellegrino.

Small issue but a bit cheeky.

I ordered the Chicken Gringa taco and words can honestly not describe how delicious it was!! The only downside was the price — 100kr for 1 taco, and not a very large one at that. I would estimate that your average person would need at least 2 or 3 of these tacos to feel full. The menu does say though that their corn is imported from two families in Yucatán and Oaxaca, so I imagine that that adds to the price. The hibiscus iced tea was also really good. I still can’t believe how amazing the taco was, I just wish I could afford to come here more often!

We were immediately greeted by nice servers and an amazing atmosphere. The food was excellent and very adjustable. Great drinks especially the mojito. 10/10 experience

If you're in the mood for some delicious Mexican cuisine, this restaurant is definitely worth considering. While some dishes may come with a slightly higher price tag, the taste more than makes up for it.

Overall, it's a recommendable option for those seeking a satisfying Mexican dining experience.

Very nice service, friendly, accommodating and professional. Tacos were amazing, perfect size, fresh ingredients and well thought combinations of ingredients. As a personal taste, maybe the music was a tad too high, but it might be me being tired. Very relaxed atmosphere and perfect to catch up with a friend over a nice cocktail. Great value for money, especially being in a important location as Nørrebros Runddel. Definitely visiting again and again!

Highly recommendable Mexican place 🤤🤤🇲🇽🌮
Great service and great food - we will for sure come back ❤️

Amazing mexican food, absolutely wonderful service and such helpful staff!
We accidentally found this place as part of our visit to Copenhagen from Fyn, and I can 100% recommend this place!
Five out of five stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Was not expecting good Mexican food in Copenhagen. Coming from a Californian, 10/10. Highly recommend the barbacoa. The guy who runs it is a fun time and my friend claims this was the best burrito she has ever had.

Went tonight Everything went very well. Food is excellent, quantity is big, Mexican beer is good and the waiteress was very nice to me. If I may propose an improvement, please make fajitas corn bigger to put more garniture inside 😊

Had a perfectly spiced Dolores green bowl and a mango margarita drink. Everything was on point and amazing service. 100% recommended

Great food! A lot of flavours and freshness. Cute little restaurant. And the staff are really cool. They have lunch specials for only 79 kr! I can recommend the Dolores Green bowl with veggie straps.

Kids have great fun here. Look at the picture. Tasty food, Modelo beers and friendly staff!

Very nice and cozy place. The tacos were good, but a bit too oily, and with too much salt. The place has a lot of space and a nice interior.

Excellent food! The burritos are filling and fresh. The food isn’t too spicy. The manager is really nice and helpful.

Very delicious food, they nicely surprised me to make gluten free version of tacos. Very good joice of limonades and non-alcoholic beer. Self service street food with option to eat inside.

Pretty nice experience, excellent service and good food. It was by pure chance that I got here because I had to find a place open for dinner in the area after 9PM. Overall satisfied, and not too pricey. Starters may seem too expensive at first, but the portion size is above average. If you're really hungry you may have both a starter and a main course, otherwise only the latter will be enough. Location is cozy and nicely decorated.

Friendly and welcoming, don't expect real Mexican food. It is more the Santa Maria's Mexican food experience a bit dull and tastless.

Nice, friendly and welcoming service.
The waiters where extremely helpful and attending,and we quickly got our table. from order to the starters arrived took very little time, and the starters where definitely the best part of the course. We tried most of them. But not really Mexican food bur more Mexican inspireret food, nachos, cheese and hot wings where quite good, but did lack the Mexican spices and flavours that the Mexican kitchen is known for.

Main course, where super boring, the Fajitas came with a very sad and small potion of rice, but the beef and the chicken fajitas where overcooked and tastless and I assume they where reheated in the microwave due the very hard and almost impossible to cut through tortillas.

Pollo picante was well cooked but very tastless, and a dull the guacamole was fresh and had a good texture.

All dishes where served with a sauce, but again with a very Santa Maria's dull and blend taste.

Dessert was good we had both the banana split and the Mexican ice-cream both quite tasty and delicious.

All in all at bit tastless and sad sata Maria's Mexican food experience.

Very nice small restaurant with very tasty fresh Mexican food. Living room vibe. Ideaal location if you look for an alternative for Nyhavn. Very friendly service and also a good place if you are travelling alone.

Very impressive food. Fresh and has great flavours. The vegetarian option tacos were sublime. Amazing taste and flavours. Soft taco. Went for lunch and food was just right without being overly heavy.

I rated this place over half a year ago and found myself back in the area. Unfortunately it has gone down from 5 to 4 stars for me. The taste is still there but the fish tacos come with pickled cabbage, no lime and no choice of salsa anymore. The fish, tortilla etc still taste great but why would you take away the lime and pickle the cabbage? The esquites was mostly cheese, which I don’t get as it’s more expensive to put together but you buy it for the corn and not the cheese.
Michelada is still great.

Overpriced, considering the serving sizes! Portion sizes are all on the smaller side, and we generally missed more of the fillings. The tacos were the best option, but could easily be filled more up! The fish pieces on the fish tacos were also small, and mostly batter. Burritos were too filled with the (cheap) rice.
Water was 25 kr pr person, which is ridiculous when its just tap water. Wont come back, sorry

Food was decent but we waited an hour for nachos! And then 30 min more for the next meal! They forgot what we did order and charged for more than we got. Don’t ever got here! Sorest experience I’ve tried in a long time…

Authentic Mexican food in Copenhagen. Muy rico!

pros: great flavours, great vibes, awesome music
cons: only 7 seats inside (bar-style) and the pricing is just a little too high, compared to other places (and general street food)

I visited Pastor Tacos on a Sunday.
It is a Mexican restaurant , run by a lovely Mexican family that will make you feel like a home. I went there for lunch, and the tacos I had were just amazing. Dippings as well.
The waiters were so helpful in explaining the menu (I am lactose intolerant) and make my meal lactose free.
It was such a cozy and friendly atmosphere, the place looks amazing and I will definitely come back! Hasta pronto!

Just had an amazing meal at the Østerbro location. Authentic and delicious tacos in a cozy atmosphere. Will definitely be back soon for more!

I absolutely love Mexican food and after visiting the country a couple of times, I've had a hard time finding anything here in Copenhagen that I would like. So far Pastor Tacos is the best Mexican (proper Mexican) food I had in Copenhagen! More authentic than most, tasty and with good prices. The staff is Mexican and Spanish and the owners are Mexican, and you can tell they all know what they are doing :) super kind staff and I love the little authentic Mexican touches they had on the decor!

Me and my husband were here with some friends last week and we really enjoyed the dinner at this place. The food was delicious and the restaurant was so cozy and the service was perfect. We truly recommend this place if you are in Copenhagen and looking for a good place to eat or if you ever have eaten Mexican food before than this have to taste. Really really good , you will not be disappoint ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

First and second time we loved it. Unfortunately the quality was not quite right this time. The tortillas tasted old / stale and the beef chewy. Disappointing.

The best Mexican food in Denmark. Yes, this place is expensive and if you don't want to splurge, then stay away. But if you don't mind, it's completely worth it.

Most, if not all, ingredients are sourced from Mexico and the cuisine is highly creative. They never compromise in flavor and service.

Really good tacos and lots of different flavors, the flavor of the day with pork and pickled onions was simply amazing! The service was really nice and friendly

Really delicious food, good prices, great craft beer selection. Recommend it. Cozy vibe as well, and outdoor seating.

Huge craft beer selection and good Mexican food
🍻🌮
