Opinions de Great Mex Grill Newport Beach
We came here in the early afternoon with the 7 of us, and there was enough seating for us which was an immediate win! I got the Carne Asada Torta and I gotta say that this was one of the juiciest, meatiest tortas, it was to die for. Next time I am in Balboa, I am going to come here just for the torta. The guacamole was good, the salsas were all good, and the Birria nachos were pretty good. Very friendly staff and great atmosphere!
Loved this place! Located right near Newport Beach, they have $2 street tacos on Tuesdays and Fridays! Very authentic food, great people, wish I lived nearby! I will definitely be back next time I'm in town. Also I highly recommend the churros. So delicious! I had a shredded beef crispy taco, Mexican taco al pastor, and carne asada.
This is probably the best Mexican food ever lol! I wish I lived here lol! You get a good amount and the prices are good! I ordered the chicken tamale😋, chicken veggie soup😋, and roasted veggies😋. Their chips and salsa are bomb!!😋😋 food so good I wanna go back today i wish I didn't drop my food down the stairs at my house💔🫨
Ima get straight to the point, the food was fantastic! It’s a very small restaurant but that shouldn’t matter if the food is really good which it was! I got the chance to speak with Veronica And she was awesome very helpful and very nice and gave me a side of chips and salsa on the house which was perfect with the food and I got a beer and a taco and it did not disappoint! They also have a restroom in the back too! Definitely recommend to try out the food and I’ll be back to try more! Btw the inside is very decorative and chill as well, highly enjoyed everything
I honestly cannot say enough good things about this Mexican restaurant. We stumbled upon this beautiful place while visiting Balboa Island in Newport Beach. From the minute, we walked to the door we felt welcomed! The chips and salsa that come with your order are amazing. I absolutely love tamales and their tamales are the best I’ve ever tasted in my life. My daughter says her burger is definitely a 10 out of 10. My husband, shrimp tacos were also amazing. They have bottled Mexican Coke, which is a favorite of mine. Don’t let this place pass you by. It is a Mexican food paradise.

So small, we had to back track LOL You order at the counter and they bring the food and drinks to you. The 8 of us came in an hour before closing and they weren't scared... still delivered delicious food!! Friendly/professional staff, clean establishment, next time will try some cocktails!
Food is great, if you can get it. I tried showing up one night 30 minutes before closing and they just told me they just decided to close early because it was a slow night. I went back the next night and it was packed. The tacos were outstanding and were ready reasonably quick for for busy they were.
For one you can just look at their menu and you know their food is not good. All it takes is looking at their carne asada burrito to realize that it is not Mexican food I had heard great things but you can already know automatically if a Mexican restaurant puts rice in a carne asada burrito it's a bad restaurant
