Experience
We love fresh and locally sourced menu ingredients, bold and spicy flavors, colorful and thoughtful plate presentations, and small batch, artisanal tequila selections, and we are excited to share these with our guests! Our dining style is casually elegant, allowing you to have a fun night out while enjoying tapas and plate sharing, and great conversation with friends and family in a contemporary Mexican-inspired setting. Let the mood be hot, spicy and a bit salty! Our creative menus, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and uniquely beautiful facility, featuring multiple dining rooms, fireplaces and firepits, and an outdoor patio set us apart from the commonplace.
Our Somers Point location is ideal as it enjoys New Jersey’s rich tradition of farm fresh products, a growing community centered around entertainment and hospitality and beautiful beaches and bays located on the Jersey Shore. Our vision for MEXIQUILA is a fun and lively Mexican fusion concept incorporating American and Asian ingredients and fresh seafood. Imagine MEXIQUILA as a little vacation for your taste buds!

WHY THE ROOSTER
A rooster is deeply associated with national folklore in Mexico, where it is an important symbol. There are numerous values associated with it, including bravery, dedication, respect, honor, responsibility, and loyalty. At Mexiquila, we’ve thoughtfully curated all the symbols of the rooster to an unmatched hospitality experience.
