“ Food is out of this world. Service takes a little bit of time but it's worth the wait. Ambient soon as walking thru the door the aroma ”
“ We ordered via DoorDash since you were staying at a friends house for our trip there in New Jersey . The tacos were great however I was expecting to have the two corn tortillas instead of flour tortilla. My boyfriend liked his burrito so I assumed that's decent. The main thing that needs to be worked on is the Sopes. The tortilla was super super super super dry and it just didn't taste like anything. I was actually disappointed because sopes are my favorite. Nonetheless overall a decent taco spot. ”
“ Tacos are the best hand made tortillas An the guacamole out of this world Also their breakfast available ”
“ Hiya Adventurers! Grabbed takeout from here this past Friday. We ordered the shrimp salad, chicken flautas, and beans with rice. I don't think I've had this great of flauntas in a while. They were crispy, covered in lettuce, crema, avocado, and crumble cheese. I wish they'd added white onions to kick the flavor up, but still delicious. I ended up with two for breakfast LOL. The shrimp salad was really good--came in a crispy tortilla bowl, reminded me of the fried crisp noodles from a Chinese place. The shrimp were baby shrimp and plentiful, also served with lettuce, Italian dressing, and of course spicy salsa dressing. I'd like to go back and try a few other dishes, actually step inside since I legit was the passenger princess. ”
“ Just had the Rosy Sandwich - what a flavor bomb! I had them hold the lettuce figuring it would just get soggy and added cilantro instead. Tasted great. It came on a sub roll not torta bread - but I think that worked out better. It's huge! ”
“ I have gotten food from here numerous times and they have not disappointed. Their Mexican and enchilada burrito are tasty. The rajas tamales are amazing!!! ”
“ Very good food by good people. I get the Mexican Burrito and Buffalo wings damn near every day and it's bussin, the people that work there are respectful. A little busy sometimes so order ahead of the lunch/dinner rushes. ”
“ Good selection of vegetarian options. I ordered huevos rancherous, so yummy! Staff was super friendly and nice. ”
“ This is my go to place on my lunch break when I am craving Tex Mex Food! I phone in my order, and by the time I get there 10 minutes later, it is ready for pick up. My favorite thing is the huevos Mexicana, which is scrambled eggs with bell pepper and hot peppers, served with rice and beans, and 4 fresh hot tortillas. It is less than $10 and it's more than I can even eat in one sitting. It's so flavorful, good, and satisfying! The woman who works there, Anna, is friendly and always seems to be in a good mood, which I appreciate! I like that everything is packed up for me to go, including napkins and plastic utensils, so I can head on over to the park and enjoy my lunch outside. This cafe has a big refrigerator case with a nice selection of diet and regular Snapple, sodas, and lemonade. I've always found free street parking within a couple of blocks of the restaurant. I plan to be a lunchtime regular here for as long as they are open! ”
“ The menus online for this business have a price difference of approximately $2 (or worse) from the actual price, e.g., the panini is not $8, it's $10. My fault was not looking at grubhub's menu since a copy of their menu came up first when googled. They even put up a sign inside saying, sorry the current menu does not reflect the new prices.... (see photo). I hope this is temporary, but my suggestion is... please update your menu, and everyone will be happier and every expectations are matched. I'm still leaving a 4-star review mostly for the food though. Now that I got that out of my system :-) I can focus on the food. Which is, actually very, very good! I didn't feel that hungry and ordered a plain quesadilla with mushroom, and it's overflowing with mushroom and it tastes very fresh. The Tex-Mex flavor was kickin' hard when you bite into their TM burger. The same with the TM taco -- fresh and delicious. The El Paso panini is similarly good and the steak well-cooked. We grabbed our food and drove 5-7 minutes away to the Riverview Park, which gives a majestic view of the Raritan river and the bridges! ”
