Small local authentic Mexican in comfortable setting good for a family or a couple. • MENU has a very wide variety of authentic Mexican dishes. Prices are high but worth the money for the quality. • FOOD is always very fresh and consistent. Complimentary chips and salsa to start are great using homemade salsa that is some of the best you can get. Fajitas are excellent. • STAFF is experienced having been open for many years. Meals come quickly when it is slow or with a full house. • CRITICISM would be that with no fountain drinks they serve soda or tea in cans/bottles so it can add up quickly. BYOB available for alcohol

This restaurant is AMAZING! The staff are friendly, attentive and all around great! Their chicken enchiladas are Excellent! Amongst other items as well! Chimichangas, Enchiladas, Churros! It really feels like you’re taken on vacation to Mexico. The SALSA AND CHIPS are the HIGHLIGHT of this restaurant. Super fresh salsa and freshly made chips that pair well for a great before dinner treat. We love you guys! Thank you! It’s always a pleasure to visit.

I had an amazing experience here considering both the quality of food/ingredients and service. I always like to ask for my server for recommendations and wasn't disappointed with the below dish. I ate the entire plate and did not leave a single chip. Overall service was amazing. Super friendly and fast. I cannot wait to go back and try out more dishes. Clean with tables well spaced for your comfort.

During Covid, not many places are open. Looking online at what was around, we found El Tenampa and saw that they were open. Tried ordering on Uber eats, but it wasn’t working and when I called and asked if they were aware they said they didn’t know why. I placed an order for pickup anyway. I ordered 2 enchilada entrees, one pork one chicken, both with red sauce, and the espinacas con queso. I opened the espinacas con queso first, which came with only FOUR small tortillas to eat it with. I was surprised because this appetizer costs nearly $15, and when I opened the takeout container I found Very little spinach tomatoes and cheese, and it was all stuck to the aluminum container and would not scrape off. However, what I could manage to eat from it did taste very good, but not worth it. The enchiladas with red sauce both came covered in obvious store bought ITALIAN marinara sauce, with very little flavor, none of the flavor was “authentic” like they advertise. The rice and beans it came with were just terrible. I do not recommend this restaurant for food, however the service was very fast...

Ordered takeout of a little over $50 when I got home we were missing a side of rice and beans and there was absolutely no sour cream with any of entrees. The lady that helped me at the counter wasn't too Pleasant seem like she was in a bad mood. I called the restaurant asked about the sour cream and she told me you don't get any with your entrees only if you come in and sit down for the meals. This must have been the same lady at the counter cuz she had the same rude attitude. Then when I asked her about the missing side of rice and beans she argued with me that it wasn't even ordered but after a few seconds on her reading the actual order she admitted she was wrong but her attitude just increased. We were long-time customer in this place and I would never step foot in the door again cuz of how this lady treated me! I wouldn't even go back to get what they owed me just to avoid her...

Located in the Starboard Plaza with Mr. Mattress, this is a decent Mexican joint for NJ. I found it to be clean and pleasant on this Sunday afternnon.

The waitperson was efficient if not overly friendly. The food was not bad as the previous reviews made me expect. I had the Queso Fundido which was 97% cheese. I would have liked a little more Chorrizo in it.

The Burrito Buena Vida was served with a small portion of rice, black beans, and sour cream. It was a spinach tortilla and well stuffed with chicken, beef, and peppers. I would say it was good.

Overall, decent fare. It got busy as I was leaving and I saw 4 take out orders being picked up in the 60 minutes ...
