    How can this place get bad reviews? New Jersey is lucky to have this place. I happened by tonight,…read morecoincidentally a Tuesday, and ordered the al pastor tacos - got an extra free one for Tuesday. These tacos are the most similar (in New Jersey) to ones I've had in Mexico. For eight and a half bucks you get 5 little tacos stuffed with juicy, tender pork meat roasted on a spit, served on warm tortillas and covered with small diced onion and cilantro. Red and green salsa that's actually hot served on the side. It's in a cool former diner, like a beautiful Mexican tribute to my home state. This is a treat that is equal in almost every way to Katz's Deli, including the amount of meat, at a quarter of the price. It's the best value around, and nothing warms me like good Mexican food. I even loved hearing the employees mumble about the gringo who just walked in. I've been coming for years, and will always come back. Viva Taqueria Los Gueros. !Orale!

    Meh- seriously mid .... Ok let me explain- I went to the location on Bloomfield Ave and I usually…read morego to the one downtown Newark .... So maybe something is to be said about different locations?!! Pace ?!? Additional secret seasoning ‍‍ So I grabbed 4 tacos and a quesadilla for the baby..... they were season- less ..... and it gets worst ..,, I ordered 2 chicken and 2 roast pork..... and the chicken was incredibly bland and resembled something more like "carnitas" the roast pork was "ok" the skin wasn't as crispy as one would imagine and unfortunately soggy...., even though I got a double level taco.,., Anyway I'll try it again - but mehhh Oh wait to add more clarity ..,, I was leaving the dispensary- and yall know how much more food generally tastes after leaving the dispensary...,, uh huh - a miss

    Authentic tasting food but customer service and dirty tables leaves a lot to desire. I'm familiar…read morewith the saying that places with the worst customer service have the best food, but when you're new and have questions about menu items and/or want to see the drinks you're curious about in the refrigerator, a nice attitude will go a long way. This restaurant has tables and chairs, but they don't know whether they want to be a dine in or takeout restaurant with the chairs on top of the tables. We noticed 2 men eating there, so we decided to as well. It was a good thing we took paper towels and hand sanitizer to clean the table, because the amount of dirt discovered was beyond disgusting. When shown to one of the workers, she shrugged and said "that's why people don't sit down and eat." Wow. Fortunately, the steak and shrimp taco bowls lived up to expectations, and the portion size was enough for 2 meals. I will only recommend this place if you order ahead so you have little staff interaction.

    I went here for a quick bite because I was craving a salad bowl. I ordered the shrimp taco salad…read morewith yellow rice and a bottle of water with the mango carrot juice. The customer service was not the best. The lady that was at the cash register seemed a little irritated answering the questions that we had about the food options and the drink options since it was our first time there. The ambience of the restaurant kind of like a to go feel restaurant, but there are tables to the left that have chairs on them. Before going, I checked the reviews for the restaurant and saw that some people chose to dine in. Then when we were ordering, we noticed that 2 man sat to eat so we thought we would sit to eat as well. When we used some paper towels and hand sanitizer to wipe down the table top and chairs it was extremely dirty and we showed the staff member and she shrugged her shoulders and explained "that's why we don't have people sit down". The food was tastey, Customer Service not the best, so I would probably order to go if you are looking for a bigger portion chipotle meal
