About Taste Of Mexico
Taste Of Mexico is a Mexican restaurant in Coventry, found at 5 New Union St. The drinks list includes Jarritos Mexican sodas, which sit on the menu next to churros served with chocolate sauce, so a soda and a dessert can be ordered together. The kitchen works from a Mexican menu, and the plates are built around familiar dishes rather than a long list of options. Nachos can be ordered with cheese sauce as an add-on.

Customer Review Summary
Beef is the item reviewers raise most, and mostly as a letdown. The beef tacos were described as dry, bland minced meat, the burrito held little beyond rice and gristly, overcooked beef in a flour wrap, and a burger's beef was called really tough. Churros come up repeatedly as stale, with one reviewer filming them snapping as if frozen, and the chocolate sauce was said to taste rancid. Nachos arrived dry and cold after a requested cheese sauce never showed up, and the fries tasted of old oil. Delivery draws its own complaints, including an Uber Eats order repeatedly promised in minutes that arrived far later, and a frozen cheesecake whose refund request was met with claims of not understanding. A couple of reviewers praise the food as tasty and hot, and the Jarritos drink gets a kind word. One diner who sat down with a takeaway order ate it hot and loved every bit.

“If you open at 15:30 why dont you write it on google and tell the times on a small note on the door is it that hard??? I arrived about 15:04 and waited there till they opened, Food was marvelous though,incredibly tasty and delicious”

“This restaurant is liar. The commitment on Uber eats delivery in 15-20 minutes but I wait more than one hour they still said five minute five minutes.if you hungry please don’t order here”

“We stopped here because we were short on time — huge mistake. The beef tacos were revolting. I was expecting tender, flavorful pulled beef, but instead got dry, bland minced meat that tasted off. I took one bite and genuinely regretted it. Nothing about this place resembles Mexican food — it’s like someone described tacos to a person who’s never actually tasted one. Zero flavor, zero authenticity, zero effort. Easily one of the worst meals I’ve paid for. Do yourself a favor and avoid this place at all costs.”

“I was really disappointed in my experience considering how hyped this place was. Most of the food here was well cooked and tasted okay, one issue was the wait time when you entered, telling you to wait 10 minutes before they even served you, as well as never receiving the cheese sauce that was asked for and therefore the person it was brought for didn’t end up eating their nachos (which also looked like they were cheap and nasty, not worth the £5.50 that was payed for them) due to them being dry and cold without it. I wouldn’t recommend coming here especially because if you payed a little more than the price you pay here you can get food thats way better in quality and will actually taste like authentic Mexican food.”

“Ordered food last night. Stale churros, just rice and some gristly beef in a flour wrap as a burrito, the chocolate sauce tasted rancid, the only good thing about the order was the Jarritos drink which the restaurant had zero control over.”
