I wanted to like this place more, but after getting takeout tacos and burritos a couple times, I've been disappointed both times. The food is good enough, but it's way overpriced for what you get. That's the "Bernardsville Tax" in action, once again. The place is just a tiny takeout counter with no attempt made at decorating the place, so low score on atmosphere. The staff is friendly, but they barely understand English. Make sure you clearly point at what you want in the English menu. The chorizo burrito was good enough the steak tacos were underwhelming, and while we ordered the beef empanadas, we got chicken instead, something that was impossible to verify until we were back home and it was too late. It's a small hole in the wall, and I know to temper my expectations, but it's too expensive for what you get. If they slashed the prices by 40%, I would give it 4 stars. I seriously get a more satisfying Mexican-style meal at Chipotle next door. I...
Read moreFrom their website " seeks to satisfy the need of the people of New Jersey to taste authentic Mexican food in the United States. a little bit of Mexico to feel there with a single bite you transport yourself to this nation" Growing up in CA and experiencing real Mexican food for 35 years of my life I can say without a doubt this establishment is not anything close to authentic. The location of this establishment is the only thing it has going for it. We have tried to enjoy their food 3 times and each time was a failure today will be the last chance we give them.

We finally receive our 2 burritos 30 minutes later and go to the park to enjoy them.... there was a chunk of plastic, a thick corner cut off a bag of some sort in the middle of the burrito my...
Read moreI see a couple reviews on here about service and food. I had surf and turf tacos recently. It's hard to find authentic Hispanic food, doesn't say Mexican in title of restaurant, says Hispanic. Anyways, I called and the gal politely in her best said she doesn't speak English. I asked if I could order inside and I was able to so I drove there instead. Inside she called someone and I was given the phone to order. Following this she took an actual frozen fish, yes full fish out to make for tacos. I thought this is the place. I knew then it would take maybe 15 minutes so I went to wait outside. I have worked around Hispanic individuals and have had the real authentic food. This is some good food and worth the try if you're will to be patient. Plus I picked up a menu on my way out and there was a number on it if you want to order in English. I'm...
