    Potato & jalapeño tostadas - spicy and delicious vegetarian option!
    Leah C.

    We've ordered from La Brujeria several times and it continues to be our go-to for Mexican. The menu is extensive and varied, all of the tacos we've tried have been great, good burritos, nachos, quesadillas, and tamales. We're big fans of the cochinita pibil pork. I wanted to try something different last time and ordered the potato & jalapeño tostadas and they were incredible! Cheesy, flavorful, spicy, balanced with creamy avocado, crispy tortillas, just the perfect meal and a great meat-free option.

    First time visiting after realizing it was in my neighborhood. The food was fresh and delicious, we ordered the chilaquiles, chicken enchiladas as guacamole. I will def be back.

    Probably some of the best Mexican food I've had in the East coast. So happy we finally tried this place. 24hrs so you can get your fix anytime. Only thing missing here is al pastor tacos. Small place -can't really eat inside. But that's fine. Also the wait may be long but it's worth it. Been thinking about the burrito since and it's only been 2 days. We will definitely be back.

    My heart is broken. This is my favorite takeout place, sometimes embarrassingly so to the point where I'd eat it 3x week when life was particularly stressful. I don't know if there's a new chef, owner, or change in supplier, but the lengua looked different and upon taking a bite I found it was FILLED with bones. I tried the suadero to and this was also the case. I understand a bone or two in a fish but this was not edible, sadly. I really hope this is a one off because disappointed is putting it lightly if this continues. :(

    Gave this place a second chance. Despite the long wait time, the food was good. I ordered two Dominican burgers and flautas. The portions were filling. The agua de Melon was great. It is a bit pricey but they are not stingy with the amount of food you get so it's worth it.

    Awesome awesome find! My first trying this place out while visiting the area. They open 24h and they accept orders online so there's people pulling up back to back picking up food. This is a small take out spot with outdoor sitting. Great service and food came out rarely quick. I order the piña colada and the strawberry slush which both were sweet and very yummy. For starters we had the Trole elote (10/10), one beef 7/10 , one chicken empanada 6/10 and a Octopus tostada 10/10. For main we had the Birria lamb tacos with the consomé 9/10. Barbacoa lam flautas 8/10. Overall I loved everything and I would be back if I'm ever in the area.

Our server was very on top of her stuff, making sure we had everything we needed and we were enjoying the food. She even let us practice our Spanish with her when ordering! My sister ordered the chicken tinga tacos and I ordered the beef birria. Both taco orders came with 5 tacos (because of the deal, it is typically 4), onions, cilantro, lime, and radish. Don't sleep on the radish, it my favorite part to add a nice crunch! Both meats were very flavorful and tender. They also gave us green and hot salsa on the side (green was my fave) and the birria tacos came with some delicious consommé for dipping. We also ordered guac and chips as an appetizer which was very fresh, and our favorite jarritos flavors to drink. It's decorated very nicely inside - no frills, a few tables and chairs inside for dining in and even a bar-style area with stools for those dining by themselves. They also offer takeout of course, but I honestly enjoyed sitting down because everything was very quick and they took great care of us. We walked, but there is only street parking so keep that in mind when traveling here.

    I had always been a big fan of Orale's Hoboken location (see review here-…read morehttps://www.yelp.com/biz/orale-mexican-kitchen-hoboken?hrid=ryYRKZXfVkYvL5NbKQavTA), which has sadly closed. However, I recently stopped into their original Jersey City spot for a quick snack at the bar. While my companion ordered a cocktail, I just had a can of Diet Coke, but we shared an order of chips and pico de gallo, which was excellent! The tortilla points were crispy and perfectly salted. The fresh tomato salsa was vibrant and delicious, but we also appreciated the three squirt bottles of more liquid-like sauces they gave us as well. These included one that was more smoky, one that was a medium spice-level verde, and another that was a more fiery rendition. The bar staff was great, and the large dining room was dimly-lit, but decorated with bright, festive colors. I will need to revisit that Orale location for a larger, more substantial meal next time!

    I was really torn about leaving this review but here we are. I went to Orale the other day because…read moreI had a craving for tacos and I wanted to be outside and people watch. The restaurant is located in the busy downtown area of Grove St. Jersey City. If you are lucky enough to get street parking great, if not there are some garages you can park in for a fee. I walked up and there were several employees at the entrance to the outdoor street-side patio chitchatting. They were very pleasant and quickly gave me a table. It wasn't busy. That's a key fact. Also I was dining alone. It took about 5 minutes for the waiter to come over and when he did he asked about my water preference and showed me the QR code on the table to get the menu. He left and came back and I gave him my order which was the carnitas tacos and a watermelon margarita. He quickly walked off and the food came out LITERALLY in 5 minutes. I was surprised because I was expecting the complimentary tortilla chips and salsa that's customary at most Mexican restaurants. Also I saw other tables with 2 or more with chips in front of them. So I asked a waitress that was passing by (since my waiter had seem to disappear) if I too can get the tortilla chips and she said it would be extra. Okay...well I started eating my food and my drink came out. The food was good. Flavorful. Temperature wise it didn't come out hot, it was warm... so it's not cooked to order. The drink was sweet and strong. So my reason for the three stars isn't the food or drink but more so for the service I received as a solo diner. My waiter never came back over to check on me! Had he done so I would have easily ordered dessert and something more to drink as I enjoyed the patio area. I had to wave him down to bring my check as he passed my table several times without even looking my way. Piece of me wanted to mirror his service in my tip but I still gave generously just to be a blessing. But I hate that I received poor service because I was a solo diner. I was a little jealous on how he treated the two other tables with 2&3 people. I spent over $50 here and left disappointed. So if you've reached this far, will I go back? Maybe. Just not alone.

Looking for a quick dinner, I decided to come here on a whim. Because it was raining pretty decently, I opted to eat inside.

Anyhow, for those who are new, the concept is similar to Chipotle, except that they create everything for you behind the scenes. I basically opted for the burrito bowl except with the vegan chorizo (Tacorizo). Before adding the sauces, the Tacorizo had a good amount of heat to it. I simply added the two mildest sauces and it was just enough. Bowl tasted great and it was obviously very filling. Good spot for a quick bite.

Anyhow, Los Cuernos is one of the few located conveniently on Washington Blvd. It's a Mexican Restaurant true-and-true, with a relatively tight bar area.
