Coming from a Mexican family, I always unfairly compare all Mexican restaurants to home cooking. I've only been here 3 months, but went to Coyote for Cinco De Mayo and was pleasantly suprised. There's also a Mr. Taco Truck on LKF on Wo On Lane. Great chicken and grilled fish tacos (corn tortilla), although their beans and rice are a little bland. Taco Loco in Soho is pretty good too, great margaritas.
If you'd like something a little more upscale, the Four Seasons has flown in two chefs from Mexico:
Viva Mexico! Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong Welcomes Mexican Chef and Tequila Barista in June. | Hotel News | Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong | Hotel Press Kits | Press Room | Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts
They'll only be here until June 10th, but I have no doubt this will be the best Mexican food you'll find locally until then!

Taco Truck used to be good, but then they got lazy and now it's just like any of the other pseudo-mexican places. In a way I can see where they're coming from. Why put in all the effort to make it authentic if the locals can't tell the difference anyway?
Taco Chacha in Sai Ying Pun (2nd street, I believe). Decent hole in the wall Mexican place, tasty fish tacos.
Taco Chaca's not bad: I live pretty close by.

Yeah, you could always tell when the mexican guy was doing the cooking, that's when it tasted like the real thing. I suppose part of the issue (particularly with the pastor) is how long it takes to marinate. Now all you get is flavorless, sinewy meat in a tortilla.
