In a Sentence: The best Mexican food in Shanghai - although that isn't saying much.
   
Our Review: Our friend has been living in Shanghai for five years and everytime he goes back to the Los Angeles, he eats Mexican food until he gets tired of it, because, as he said: "There are no good Mexican restaurants in Shanghai".

Well, we took him to Mexico Lindo, and he can't say that any more. Not that Mexico Lindo is the best Mexican food in the world, but it is the best Mexican food in Shanghai. We started with the Nachos because the table next to us got the #$!@#! last order of made-at-your-table guacamole. The nachos are made individually, and you get 8-10 "chips" per order.

The tacos were great, as were the fajitas, and lamb birria. Margaritas were good - but the price tag 160RMB per pitcher seemed a tad steep.

   
Best Dish: Lamb Birria

"Give Mexico Lindo a miss. Expensive and as far from authentic Mexican food as I have seen. Restaurant and staff are fine but the food needs a vast improvement to resemble anything Mexican."
