Despite not being a big novelty in São Paulo, Mexican cuisine is still on the radar of many people who want to get out of the ordinary and try something different. Whether it’s the traditional recipes or the mixed Tex-Mex, the range of restaurants is huge. That’s why we’ve put together some of the São Paulo Secreto team’s favorite Mexican restaurants, for when the urge to try the typical cuisine strikes!
Taquería La Sabrosa
Located in the bustling Pinheiros area, La Sabrosa is a favorite among young people. A must when it comes to filling your stomach between parties, the restaurant serves authentic Mexican cuisine and refreshing drinks. From the extensive menu, we recommend trying all the taco flavors, including the vegan options, accompanied by the house tamarind drink.
📍 Rua Francisco Leitão, 246 – Pinheiros
Guadalajara Mexican Food
Next, for those who live in or around the Belém neighborhood, Guadalajara is a great option for a Tex-Mex restaurant. This includes, among other things, beef and plenty of cheese in classic Mexican recipes.

Mexicaníssimo
Unlike the previous restaurant, Mexicaníssimo serves “root food”, sticking to the most traditional Mexican recipes. The all-you-can-eat option comes with burritos, quesadillas, tostadas, guacamole and many other delights to try. With vegan and vegetarian options!
