Latin American flavours, Taco Tuesdays, horchatas and margaritas – Mexican restaurants in Bahrain serve flavours that are just as bold and vibrant as the dishes themselves. Whether you’re a fan of smoky chipotle, oozing cheese, slow-cooked meats or fresh pico de gallo, there’s something for every spice-loving palate on the island’s food scene. It’s not all just tacos and burritos (although we recommend both) – from family-run street-style joints to award-winning fine dining restaurants, Mexican food in Bahrain comes with plenty of personality and punch.
This guide rounds up some of the best places for Mexican food across the island. Think sizzling fajitas, quesadillas, Mexican takeaways, or nacho-fuelled brunches – we’ve got all your cravings covered. Some places even serve strawberry cheesecake tacos (don’t knock it till you try it).
