El Tesoro — Restaurant in Somerset

First time eating here. I got a "to go" order as follows: 1x Beans and Rice, 2 Ground Beef Empanadas, 2 Ground Beef Soft Tacos, and 1 Burrito XL Al Pastor. Believe me when I say everything was amazing. Unlike every other "Authentic Mexican Cuisine" restaurant in Somerset and about everywhere else I have eaten, El Tesoro doesn't smother their Ground Beef in generic taco seasoning and they also don't leave it greasy. The same for the Al Pastor ( Seasoned Pork ) it had a freshly almost smoked flavor with a touch of seasoned flat top grill flavor as well which culminated with the fresh hand-made tortilla and freshly chopped veggies into what I would call the perfect and for me the best Ground beef tacos and seasoned pork Burrito I have ever had. I would give this place 6 stars if possible and the only reason the atmosphere only got 4 stars is because it's a quaint little dining area and there just isn't a lot of space to decorate and entertain the customers that choose to "dine in". Instead, the owners have used the time and money they might have used to step up the atmosphere and focused it where it matters most in their food and the quaint of everything they offer. You can tell that the people who own and work at El Tesoro truly love what they do and take pride in it. So hats off to them you're doing an amazing job and I wish every restaurant would...

An unprecedented review for me, this is the first time a recommended restaurant is actually as good as they'd said.

This quaint establishment gives a mom&pop feel that I always love -- friendly staff, quick service for my experience.

Reviews boasting authentic flavors at this restaurant are correct -- crumbled cotija over menu items are new to me, even packed to-go it was aesthetically pleasing (came with plenty of napkins and a set of plastic cutlery), my meal was highly enjoyable, ready in 15 mins!

Just a tad small inside with less parking than you may expect, but you could possibly call to ensure your party can be accommodated!

I'll certainly be trying their other menu items, I got at first to try the beef empanada, and an al pastor street taco with the richest, most fresh (AMAZING) guacamole, and chips.

*only caveat: chips&salsa aren't included, but I didn't really mind since the service was excellent, and the flavor...

From this tiny kitchen comes such big flavor. Really been craving some sopes for awhile and after moving away from the big city it's not something you find on a menu alot. Ordered some tacos and sopes with an order of quac. The sopes bread was delicious. You could tell it was probably a receipe passed down from a couple generations. Reminded me of something my granny use to make. The guacamole was so fresh and so good. The chips were homemade not something put of a bag thrown in a warmer. And I think that sets the pace for this place. No corners cut. Small kitchen yet alot of love and flavor goes into the dishes here. Super fresh and was served very quickly. Glad I finally got a day off and some time to go check them out. I will be stopping by El Tesoro again highly recommend this place they...
