The Unassuming Town In Delaware That Has The Best Mexican Food Ever
Georgetown is known for being diverse and unique compared to the rest of Sussex County. There is a large immigrant population that help support our local agriculture industry and bring a lot of great culture to Slower Lower Delaware. One incredible result is that Georgetown, otherwise a sleepy, historic colonial town, is filled with some of the best Mexican food you’ll find on the east coast. Most of these restaurants are hole in the wall joints and easy to miss, so make it a point to track down each one and fulfill your summer taco bucket list.


This Georgetown dive is easy to miss as you walk up Race Street, so keep your eye out. Dont be discouraged by the divey atmosphere - the food here is unforgettable. Its a blend of traditional Guatamalen and Mexican dishes, and will soon become your new favorite taco spot.

El Gran Charro is located in the shopping center next to Wal-Mart, and it is easy to miss. This small store is also a mexican grocery. The Tostadas are out of this world! I usually go for Tostadas Asada.
