"Mexico Lindo Knoxville" stands as a vibrant culinary gem in Knoxville, TN, specializing in authentic Mexican cuisine. Nestled conveniently at 462 N Cedar Bluff Rd, its inviting ambiance and exceptional service draw patrons to indulge in flavorful dishes, especially their renowned tamales. Customers frequently rave about the pork tamales, with many, like Michael White, declaring them the best in town. The genuine care put into crafting these delicacies truly shines through.

However, the overall sentiment is one of satisfaction, with many praising the friendly staff and value for money, reinforcing the restaurant's commitment to quality.

Beyond the food, the owners’ generosity shines, as exemplified by LC Trump's touching account of support for a local teenager. This blend of great food and community spirit creates an atmosphere that is not only about dining but also about connection.

I got a To Go order of 3 tamales, one of each variety. The person taking my order recommended the brown sauce, she said it was so delicious. Unfortunately I didn’t like that flavor at all. However the tamales were delicious. Next time (and there will be a next time) I’ll get a different sauce, or take advantage of their salsa bar. The other problem was that the box the To Go order was placed in leaked all over the plastic bag, which caused leakage in my car. For orders like this it would be nice to have a bag with a bottom that would allow the container to stay flat. The servers were friendly and I was happily surprised with the cost. It was located in a great location where getting in and out of their large parking lot was easy. It also had a lot of HC parking spaces, however they were all full when I was there. I recommend this restaurant.

Awesome place to eat! But...... I saw the true side of the owners yesterday, a young teenager, probably 13-14 came in to eat and mentioned he was cleaning car wheels to earn money for the summer. The owners asked him to do there car. It was awesome to know that not only is the food good at this place but so are the people that run it! Way to go staff and Way to go young man!!! Both of you made my heart happy and made me have a little more faith in the future without either of you knowing it!!

I went on the hunt for tamales on Facebook. I came across several posts about how this establishment had some of the best in town. So, I went there and ordered a dozen pork tamales to go, but I asked first if they had them available. I walked out with a dozen pork tamales, and a day later, there are no more. We absolutely loved these pork tamales! I even have kids that had never had a tamale, but they fell in love with the tamales from Mexico Lindo. Thank you guys for the love you put into your food. I will definitely be buying more tamales!

This place is a GEM! The food is always incredible and they always have amazing specials. The service is great as well. My husband and I are so glad we found this place. It is one of our new favorite spots in town!

Wife and I were traveling through Knoxville and wanted Mexican food but just a small meal. Googled this place and was very pleased with the food. Ended up eating the whole meal. Chimichanga and tacos were great. Cheese dip was perfect. Cokes tasted so good we got two to go. We’ll definitely stop again on our next visit.

Delicious and very enjoyable! Our server, Luis, was very friendly and alert, frequently offering refills, and was quick to take our order. The food came very quickly too. We ordered queso and chips to begin. There is a bar to order beverages, but we had sodas and tea instead. We ordered the carne asada, double supreme fajitas, and steak fajitas and 3 tamales (chicken, beef, and pork). My whole family agreed it was all yummy!!!

My husband and I visited this restaurant on Cinco De Mayo and although they were very busy, we received amazing service and the food was delicious. Several staff came over to fill drinks and ask if we needed anything, everyone was so helpful!! I would highly recommend visiting the location on Cedar Bluff, Knoxville.

The people on here that are saying that the food is horrible, etc.. Don’t know their butt from a hole in the ground. I am a professional chef, and I can honestly say that I ate here for the first time the other day and that it was the best Mexican food I have ever had in Tennessee! Fresh, delicious, affordable, and the family that owns it are so nice!!!
