5 Great Mexican Restaurants in and Around Albany, OR 
1. Taqueria Alonzo
When you want to enjoy a meal with a fun and family-friendly atmosphere, Taqueria Alonzo is the perfect place to go. For a plate that brings some heat to your table, order the Carne Asada a la Diabla. Just be warned, the spicy sauce the meat comes prepared in is only for the bold. If you need something sweet to cool off after all that heat, have a slice of their decadent Tres Leches cake for dessert.
2. Mexico Lindo
The extensive selection of traditional Mexican dishes available to choose from at Mexico Lindo means just about anyone can find something they love. Start out your meal with their Baby Shrimp Quesadilla, which mixes a seafood flavor with oozing cheese for a burst of flavor in every bite. For a hearty main dish, we recommend picking one of their burritos. The Burrito Relleno comes loaded up with delicious chili and topped with a special sauce.
3. Rigoberto’s Taco Shop
Authentic Mexican flavors are available 24 hours a day at Rigoberto’s, so you won’t have to wait until morning even if your cravings strike in the middle of the night. Their combo plates let you get a filling meal at a great value. Our favorite one has to be the combination that gives you one hearty beef burrito and then one of their delicious enchiladas to go with it.
4. Los Dos Amigos
They treat everyone like one of their amigos at this friendly local spot, and that friendly service only heightens the experience the tasty food gives you. Their fajitas are definitely a highlight of what they have to offer, coming out sizzling hot and marinated in some of their secret sauce. Don’t leave without trying some of their deep-fried ice cream for dessert.
5. El Palenque
Some amazing food like what you’ll find at El Palenque would have been enough to make our list, but the amazing service you’ll get here turns your visit into a memorable experience. Their street-style tacos are a real crowd-pleaser, coming in enough different flavors that just about anyone will love. If you can handle some heat, be sure to top yours off with some of their homemade hot sauce for an extra kick.
