It's no secret that college kids don't like to cook. Thanks to the University of Florida, my generation's refusal to use the kitchen, and all the Gainesville restaurants on Archer Road, Gainesville has become somewhat of a mecca for dining out. There are so many varieties and quality meals around town from many backgrounds and one of the more popular types, Mexican restaurants in Gainesville. Looking for Mexican food in Gainesville? Here are some of my favorite Mexican restaurants in the Gainesville area!
