    Vegetarian and shrimp tacos
    Keith N.

    Been sampling the local Mexican restaurants in this area and this is so far the best! I lived in Mexico for 4 years and know what it means to be authentic. We both ordered the tacos a la carte my girlfriend had the vegetarian and the shrimp with homemade corn tortillas. I ordered the tacos Al Pastor tongue and alambre. All of them were simply delicious! The chunky guacamole was also unique and flavored with lime and cilantro. Service was excellent and everyone was very friendly . We will be returning soon to sample a breakfast and a dinner but not all at once!

    Birria Quesadillas, worth ever penny.

    Hidden gem alert in Monroe. The Birria Quesadillas will knock your socks off. Tucked away in a strip mall with just a small sign that says, "Mexican Restaurant".

    Chunky Guacamole

    From the service to the food, I cannot rave about this place enough. I got the birria tacos and they were, bar none, the best I've had around the area. The chunky guacamole was refreshing and delicious. The Tres Leches was out of this world. Please do not hesitate to stop in here when crossing through town. You will not regret it!!!

    The absolute best Mexican food we've eaten since moving to Monmouth County NJ. I'd sweep the floors daily just to obtain a meal

    Great beef enchiladas! Good service, too. Brings me back to Western Ave and Hollywood Blvd in the late 1960's!

Every single time I've been here the service here is always exceptionally friendly. Even when I ordered on Cinco de Mayo (against my better judgement) when they were slammed with orders and a bit behind on times the employees here are so nice that not one customer was getting mad. They worked their butts off to keep everyone happy and get everyone their orders as fast as they could. The service alone is 5 stars but then you get your meal. Everything is fresh, delicious and prepared well. Highly recommend stopping in. If it's a nice day grab a table outside.

The interior has been updated from the prior restaurant. We did take-out and ordered the Bistec a la Tampiquena. My husband found it simply delicious, not to mention a generous portion. The entree came with beans, rice, cactus, fried cheese and green chili enchiladas. The vegetarian accompaniments were plenty to fill me up. Their vast menu clearly shows cash vs. credit prices. They also offer a few breakfast selections. We look forward to trying more items and dining in next time.

Maybe too big? A review mentioned fish tacos so I wanted to start there, guac seemed like a good idea for a snack while waiting for our meals. It was ok, too watery due to excess lime juice and no pico in it as stated on the menu. The tacos were much better, long thin pieces of tilapia with shredded iceberg and cheese a few diced toms and a pink sauce. They were served on wheat tortillas. I wished the assemblage was slightly different, maybe just pickled onion and pico, but this Gringo version was fine. My friend thought his barbacoa special was ok only, but did not elaborate. We both got things to go too. He brought home the Birria quesadilla, and I the caldo de res. He thought the take home was much better than his lunch. My beef soup was not good at all. The spicy broth was not spicy or even seasoned, I could barely detect the presence of sodium. Worse was the cuts of beef included, they were mainly bone and fat with little meat. I get this soup at several places closer to home and have enjoyed them. This one was not edible to me. Had I not gotten that item I would be rounding up to 4 stars. Let's say 3.5 and a one and done for me....

I've had flautas, burritos, quesadillas, tacos, and more and I have never been let down. I absolutely love the chicken tinga and salsa verde here. The chicken tinga burrito is my go-to order and I always request extra salsa verde because it is the best salsa to ever touch my lips! I could literally drink it...Everything is so fresh and tasty! The inside has beautiful cultural decor and plenty of tables. It is a BYOB restaurant so feel free to bring your favorite adult beverage. They can be quite busy at times, but service and quality have never fallen during rush hour. If you dine in, you'll start off with fresh chips and salsa verde, which if you haven't caught on yet, you will love. I've attached some pictures from this visit and from previous visits and yes...the burritos are *always* that big and bursting at the seams. If I had to choose my last meal, it would be La China Poblana, hands down.

The burritos are always packed, the presentation of the molcajete for two was amazing, and the quality of their chicken, steak and pork is always great. The salsa verde is 100/10 - I could drink it! You absolutely cannot go wrong with the staples - tacos, quesadillas, burritos, tostadas, fajitas, tamales... they do it all, and they do it WELL. The service is also great when dining in. The decor of the place feels like you're somewhere in the southwest - beautiful colors and imagery on every table, chair, and wall.
