This place was a recommendation from my coworkers while working out of Newark Penn Station. For a…read moreFriday the place wasn't busy but heard it can get crazy in there. So I ordered one of their tortas with steak, jalapeño, onions and cheese. I was expecting a simple sandwich to hold me until I got home. What I was served was the biggest torta I had ever seen. And it was delicious! Fresh ingredients all around, loved everything especially the bread. The house made green and red hot sauces are amazing. Love the flavor and heat. The jalapeño in the torta kicked as well, I was a happy camper. Few tables to seat and eat, staff very friendly and helpful. Prices are moderate and worth it for the good quality food served. Loved how the place was nicely decorated for FIFA and gave a relaxing atmosphere with the games playing on TV. Can be a cool date spot as well. Looking forward to trying other menu items here.

We were staying at the Hilton near Penn Station and found this spot nearby and were so glad we did!…read moreIt's a small restaurant nicely decorated and very friendly service which was nice to experience because the service we had in NYC was not very friendly. I live in LA and have been to Mexico several times, and let me tell you, this place is authentic. The horchata is one of the most delicious I've had. Not too sweet or thick and great flavor balance. I had the quesabirria tacos and they were very delicious with the consome. My family had tortas and they couldn't finish them because they were huge, but they enjoyed every bite. I recommend this spot for delicious Mexican food and great service.

If you're looking for authentic, delicious Mexican food this is your spot! I ABSOLUTELY LOVEEE…read moretheir chicken tacos.. amazing, with their verde & red salsa..I even get it with avocado slices sometimes for an extra $3 why not.. deliciousss.. just writing about it is making my mouth watery. My co workers & I usually end up eating here at least once a week..we had to try other mexican establishments near by because 1. On Monday's this restaurant is closed & 2. Because they were on vacation but that's when we realized how much we loved this place.. after we tried the other two mexican spots we never went back to them. The restaurant itself it's small & cozy..but has enough chairs & tables if you want to sit down & enjoy your meal. It also has a TV & radio playing & a small but very clean bathroom. If you are wondering about where to park, they have a small parking lot behind the restaurant that you can park in if you can't find any street parking. I noticed it has a surveillance camera so you don't have to worry about anything happening to your car! Haha The workers are always very nice & helpful, we sometimes call & order ahead of time so it's ready when we come in to pick it up but they also will deliver near by, which is also a big plus. They take cc's but it is a min. Of $10 ... they also have desserts & a variety of drinks besides the mexican sodas. Ps. try out their chips & guac ... yum I will definitely be back.. like every week haha

Taqueria Morelos is your run of the mill mama and papa Mexican restaurant. The jar of horchata was…read morestaring at me begging to be ordered, but i fought the temptations and stuck to my mission. Tacos Al Pastor 7.3/10 - I can't quite put my finger on it, but I feel as though these tacos could have given me more. YES, the meat was flavorful and juicy, YES you can taste the pineapple, YES all the flavors came together harmoniously. But for some reason I kept thinking I was eating chicken, maybe it had to do with the way the meat was chopped up finely. Texture played a big role in determining how much I reallyyy liked these tacos. They were good and I would perhaps get them again, but i've definitely had better. Quesabirria 8.7/10 - When I opened the box them cheeses were staring at me and I knew I was gonna stretch that shit out. i was blown away buy how good the cheese melted into the savory meat dripping everywhere (yes everywhere). They did not hold back on the cheese, and i'm very grateful for that! The tortilla was solid but I wish they were just a tad bit more crunchy. I devoured them bitches tho so it's all good. Consome 8/10 - Textbook definition of consome right here, it elevated the birria tacos and brought out that meaty taste. On its own it gave a nice warm hearty feeling in my tummy. It was cozy and no further to be honest. Green sauce 6.9/10 - I know green sauces aren't typically the spiciest sauce you can get, but i detected zero spice levels! The taste was rather refreshing, and had a nice hint of lime to it. You don't notice the flavors as much when you put them on the tacos, which made me a tiny bit sad Red sauce 7.8/10 - I was worried this sauce would be on the bbq side of the flavor spectrum, but I was surprised but it's smoky richness and decent level of spice. don't go too heavy with this one because then you will see the levels of hotness that come with this sauce. I actually taste this one with my tacos and didn't overpower the meat flavors. I wish more red sauces were as complex as this one. Cilantro 10/10 - very fresh, generous, and green Overall experience 7.75/10 - Although I expected more from the Al Pastor tacos, the birria tacos made up for it and consome and red sauce really sealed the deal. next time i'm shit face drunk in newark and it's not too late I'll come back with a smile.

So for these, they were ok. This location always seem to have a line because of the location. You wait and then you order. They need to have more descriptions up before you get to the register. By the time you get to register, I didn't have time to read everything before I had to order since there was a line behind me. You get your ticket and then give it to someone preparing the food and then you wait. Then you have to find a place to get it, good luck when it's busy. Also grab your salsas. Worth a try since it's a stable.

Their take out menu from the night before said $15 for a spicy pork bowl but in person to order was $19. Portion is wildly disproportionate to the price and taste was subpar for the area and again the price. I'm all for supporting local but I will be sticking to Charley's near by or Chipotle from now on because this experience I've had was criminal.

The man at the front (I wish I got his name) was awesome. He was so friendly and even comped our diet coke and jarritos. We started with chips and guac. The portion of guac was so generous and it was so creamy and flavorful with the seasonings, tomato, and onion. I got a chicken burrito and it was the best burrito that I can remember having. It was a big portion and the sauces on top really made the dish. That avocado crema was amazing. We finished with a tres leches that had such bright flavors and a perfect texture.
