Tania's Mexican Restaurant — Restaurant in Menallen Township

We visited on the way home one evening. It is a small building on rt 34, near the town of Aspers, Pa. Gravel parking long could accommodate about 40 cars. Several bushes around the edge of the property. there were several signs in Spanish hanging from the windows: money transfer forms, phone cards, jewelry repair, a huge Spanish music concert in shartlesville, pa, etc.

When we went in, we were greeted by a tall mexican waiter, he seated us and got us menus right away, after giving us a little time to look, he returned for our beverage selections, while bringing out chips & salsa. We looked at the menu, it appeared to be complete, with many selections, but was standard, nothing special. the prices were reasonable, comparable to other mexican restaurants I've been to.

We ordered the shrimp soup (8.00) It had a ton of small shrimp in it, though none were peeled, nice base too, very tasty. Bistek a la mexicana (12.00) which is a large flat slice of beef, along with beans and rice, covered in avocado, onions & tomato's along with 5 corn tortillas. We ordered a taco salad (8.00), which was a large tortilla, fried, that had a bowl appearance, with ground beef, tomatoes, lettuce and cheese on top. What we tried that was decent was: a Beef soup, with cabbage, tomato, half a corn on the cob, onions, cilantro, all in large slices. It was amazing, when we first came in we asked what the best item was, he suggested that.

the little store was okay it has pastries, treats, rice, medicine, first communion dresses, religious statues, dried peppers, canned goods, a complete line of soccer clothing.

All in all it was pretty good, having read Amy's review and being in the area, I thought it would be pretty neat. I have to give Amy credit she reviewed a nice little spot. Prices- fair, Service-fair,...

When I entered, the gentleman at the counter looked confused. I said table for one, and he told me to sit. It seemed like he had limited English, so I spoke in Spanish to him, but he still seemed hesitant to speak to me.

I looked over the menu and decided on what I wanted. I was the only customer, but it took him until someone else walked in and went to the counter to pay for something from the shop side to notice that I was ready to order.

I got the chicken fajitas which the menu states comes with guacamole. Well, when the food was ready, there was no guacamole. I looked at the menu again to make sure I hadn’t looked at the wrong thing, but I was right. So I asked the man about it, and he asked if I wanted to get an order of guacamole. I pointed to the menu, and he gave me guacamole. Makes me wonder how many people have ordered fajitas and never received guacamole despite the menu saying it comes with them.

More people came in after I’d been there for a bit. Some shopped on the store side, and some came for the restaurant. They were all native Spanish speakers which is a good sign.

However, I was not impressed with my food. You do get complimentary chips and salsa. My chicken fajitas tasted too dry, and most of the pieces of chicken were so small. You can get flour or corn tortillas with fajitas, and I chose flour. You get 4 tortillas. For the price ($19), it wasn’t worth it at all.

Based on other reviews, there aren’t any other options for food in the area. I came based on a recommendation and because I was sort of in the area. Won’t bother going...

Stopped at a local Mexican restaurant for dinner on our way home from the local apple orchard. My wife and I where very disappointed by the service. We were seated at around 4:40pm and ordered our unsweetened tea and meals within 10 mins. We ordered two mixed Fahita meals with flour tortilla and unsweetened tea. During our wait 4 tables where served and finished ther food and left. After the other tables left. A large family of 7, two tables with 2 couples, and a table of 3 where seated and ordered food. Three of the tables where served and eating before we where told our food was coming up. The table of 7 with 3 small children finished eating and were getting ready to leave when we started eating. The 4th table were served at the same time. We received our meals just before 6pm. To top it off, we both received corn insteadbof the flour tortillas we ordered. It took another 5 to 10 mins got get them swapped. The beef and chicken in the fajitas were over cooked. Shrimp still had the tails on them. Asked for hot sauce and I got two flavorful sauces the had ZERO bite. I drowned my fajitas in it for moisture. Usually I am the one who gets upset about poor service but not this time! It takes a lot to get her upset as she is a very forgiving person.

Never did...
