Influenced by a variety of cultures, from Africa and the Caribbean to Asia and the Middle East, but also by successive heritages, as a result of the Spanish conquest of the Aztec empire, Mexican gastronomy is a cuisine rich in color and flavor that deserves to be discovered. And that's just as well, because there are plenty of Mexican restaurants in Paris just waiting to welcome you!
Key dishes include tacos, corn tortillas filled with meat, vegetables and salsa; burritos, tortillas filled with rice, beans and meat, served with guacamole and sour cream; enchiladas, corn tortillas stuffed with meat, cheese and topped with chili sauce; and tamales, corn cakes stuffed with meat and wrapped in corn husks.
But Mexican cuisine is also known for its stews, such as pozole, a kind of generous potée, and its fish dishes, such as the famous ceviches, fresh delicacies. Accompanied by a glass of mezcal or tequila, within reason of course!
So here are the best addresses for Mexican restaurants in Paris!
