6 restaurants · In guide order

1 Taqueria Hidalgo Yelp

Taqueria Hidalgo

Mexican · Burnsville · $

A budget-tier counter room in Burnsville with a short, direct menu. Priced at the low end of the suburb's taco field, it fits the quick, no-frills order rather than a sit-down meal. Details on the exact lineup are thin, but the price point alone marks it as the value option among Burnsville's Mexican kitchens.

2 Casa Maya Grill & Cafe - Don Chon Yelp

Casa Maya Grill & Cafe - Don Chon

Mexican · Burnsville

The Taco Chon is the reason regulars keep coming back to this family-run room in Burnsville, alongside carne asada and chiles rellenos that read as generous rather than fussy. Groups do well here: tables of six report every plate landing well, and the family ownership shows in how the room handles a crowd on a weeknight.

3 Taqueria La Hacienda Yelp

Taqueria La Hacienda

Mexican · Burnsville · $$

Carne asada tacos, chiles rellenos, and enchiladas anchor a counter-service menu that runs smaller than some competitors but delivers on what it does serve. Prices sit at the low end for Burnsville. Portion control is visible from the counter, which cuts both ways: exact, but occasionally a wait during a rush.

4 El Super Taco Yelp

El Super Taco

Mexican · Burnsville · $$

The breakfast burrito and carne asada fries draw comparisons to San Diego and Texas plates, and regulars return multiple times a week for both. A salsa bar with green and habanero options is a genuine draw. The room itself runs casual and sometimes shows the wear of a busy counter, but the kitchen's output keeps people loyal.

5 Los Grandes Mexican Restaurant Yelp

Los Grandes Mexican Restaurant

Mexican · Burnsville

Ceviche, grilled fish, and camarones a la diabla headline a menu built for a night out rather than a quick meal. The room is large and decorated for occasions, with live music as the draw on weekends. Drink prices run high for Burnsville, and the kitchen's consistency takes a back seat to the room's function as a music and date night venue.

6 Los Agaves Mexican Restaurant Yelp

Los Agaves Mexican Restaurant

Mexican · Burnsville

Tacos al pastor headline a casual, quick-turn menu, with a dollar taco special on Tuesdays that draws a crowd for the al pastor specifically, full of flavor and not dry. Nachos and chicken quesadilla round out the order. Service reads as friendly and fast, though drink refill policy has drawn complaints.

What to know before choosing a restaurant

The top picks: Taqueria Hidalgo, Casa Maya Grill & Cafe - Don Chon, and Taqueria La Hacienda, with all 6 rooms ranked below.

Burnsville's taco lineup runs from strip mall counters to a full dining room with a live band. The Dakota County suburb keeps its Mexican kitchens spread along its commercial corridors rather than clustered in one strip, and the range says something real about what this ring city eats on a Tuesday night versus a Friday date night.

Frequently asked

What is the best taco spot near me in Burnsville?
It depends on what corner of Burnsville is near you and what you want that night. Casa Maya Grill & Cafe - Don Chon and El Super Taco carry the strongest Insider Scores in this guide for straightforward, well-executed tacos, while Los Grandes is the pick if you want live music with your dinner rather than just a fast plate.
Which Burnsville taco restaurant has the highest Insider Score?
Insider Scores are calculated independently from the review record for each restaurant, and no restaurant pays to be listed or to rank higher. Check the score displayed next to each name above; it reflects the full pattern of customer feedback, not a single visit or a paid placement.
Are these all sit-down restaurants or is there counter service?
It is mixed. Taqueria Hidalgo, Taqueria La Hacienda, El Super Taco, and Los Agaves run casual or counter service for a quick order. Casa Maya Grill & Cafe - Don Chon and Los Grandes lean toward full sit-down service, with Los Grandes built around a bigger night out with music and drinks.
Is any restaurant on this list better for a group or date night than a quick lunch?
Los Grandes Mexican Restaurant is the clear pick for a group night out or date night, with live music and a decorated dining room, though its drink prices and food consistency have drawn mixed comments. For a fast weekday lunch, Los Agaves and El Super Taco fit better.
