The free chips come with fresh pico de gallo, red and green salsa. The horchata and juices come in quart sizes, cost less than $7, and are not listed on the menu, so be sure to ask. If you are adventurous, try the different taco fillings like cow head and tripe for just $4 each. Servers are always so pleasant, despite being nonstop busy into the wee hours of the night. Just also know that there's no going there without leaving with the smell of fried foods on your hair and clothing!

The restaurant has a small, cozy vibe that makes it nice for a casual lunch spot. The food is also great. I got the bistec en la crema, which was steak with cheese on top, accompanied by rice and beans. The rice and beans were very tasty, as was the steak. I also got the tostadas in the appetizer, which were not as good. Overall, I would definitely recommend if you are looking for authentic Mexican food in NB. 4/5

Their Horchata is off the charts and unique because it has additional cinnamon and texture. This drink is always a staple during my visits. Shared the crispy jalapeño poppers with ranch inspired dipping sauce. The loaded chicken quesadilla was pleasantly flavorful with hot consommé that came on the side. So tasty to dip your quesadilla in order to drink as a soup! The staff is so engaging and pleasant, always checking in to see if you need something extra or to pack up your leftovers. The decor is bright and makes you smile. I'm a big fan of the neon signs next to the drink refrigerator. Solid spot for Latin American food! Thank you to this fantastic restaurant.

Answer: A Mexican Street Corn (Elote) Original poem written by Pamela L. and not AI Here is what we ordered from our first two visits here at Birria Kitchen. - Elote - Birria Tacos w/cheese ($1.00 extra) - Birria Ramen (be warned that this is quite a heavy dish) Everything is served piping hot, even the consommé. The item I go crazy for are their Elotes. I love corn on the cob and have had many Elotes that I thought was only okay. OMG, these are thee BEST!!!! It has just the right amount of mayo, creaminess and seasoning. The corn is sweet. Don't share, get your own and nibble away. Definitely worth a visit for some good Birria. The lovely young lady working in the front is super friendly. Plenty of parking available.

First, staff is super -super nice!! helpful when trying to decide what to order. Mini Me and I both chose three tacos carne asada with the smokey roja sauce. Hubby had the same but as a burrito. For the sides we had chips and guacamole and the Mexican street corn. Drink were Horchata (Obviously). Tacos and burrito were stuffed, and absolutely delish. They have a self serve salsa bar with the three salsa, the smokey roja, salsa verde and habanero. Let me just say I tried all three- fantastic heat to flavour ration and I poured the habanero on my tacos so good! in fact the smokey roja with the salsa verde is a great combination !! Seating area outside is much larger than inside, we sat inside at a table that had just become available- they do a super brisk take out business and we didn't wait very long for our food to be ready. In fact, my husband and Mini-Me - all three of us, agreed we would for sure make the drive again to have tacos here!! If you are in the area or at school near by- you have to come here at least once, to try the food. I paid for my hubby since he was not my +1 and his meal was about $16. so that in itself is very very reasonable for the amount of food you get. We were very pleased with the food, service and price point.

I would definitely order this again and I am looking forward to coming back to try more items on the menu.

The restaurant serves delicious, fresh food in a very homey atmosphere. The servers are kind, attentive, and so helpful; from time to time, you might even be served by Pancho himself, who is an absolute gem! We started with the guacamole and chips, followed by the nachos, where you can customize them with your choice of meat. For our entrees, we ordered the Huaraches with steak, which is a large, handmade, slightly fried tortilla topped with beans, onions, lettuce, crema, and cheese. We also got the Tacos, which come five to an order. You can choose up to two meats, but we stuck with the classic Al Pastor. The meat was so tender and flavorful, served with the traditional onion, cilantro, and lime on the side. Finally, and my personal favorite, we had the Picaditas. Like the tacos, you can choose two meats, so we went with Al Pastor and steak. Similar to the Huaraches, these are four smaller, slightly fried homemade tortillas with green and red sauce on the bottom, topped with lettuce, onion, and cheese! To wash everything down, we had the homemade Agua de Jamaica (hibiscus tea), though their Horchata is also delicious. Overall, this is one of my favorite spots; it reminds me of my childhood, and the food is just as good as what you'd find in Mexico. If you're looking for an authentic experience, this is it!

Taco Empreso (Located in Edison Plaza Strip Mall)…read more775 Route 1 South Edison, NJ 08817 Butter Chicken Taco Asada Taco Birria Taco El Pastor Taco When I first entered this halal taquiera located in the Edison Plaza strip mall, I was filled with dismay. I instantly realized how the interior looks identical to Los Tacos No. 1. The Coca-Cola insignia is displayed to the left and right of the restaurant name. The menu is painted on a large wall. Even the employees wear white uniforms and white chef hats. Originally, I was confined this restaurant was going to be a cheap knock-off. Ordering is done through an in-store kiosk. Although I was skeptical using the computer screen, I found it easy to navigate and was able to fulfill my lunch order without requesting any assistance. The meal took a few minutes to arrive, but that was because the servers were freshly making it on the spot. I started to get a good feeling as I witnessed the chefs in action. As soon as I took my first bite, I realized I was mistaken about my initial impression. All tacos are prepared with fresh ingredients with a smoky flavor. The shells are soft and doughy. Juices from the protein slightly compromised the appearance, but the taste is fantastic! There is a salsa bar offering complimentary toppings for your tacos. Limes, pickled onions, and three flavors of salsa are an option. The seating is kind of tight, but it's meant to be eaten in a fast paced atmosphere. Overall, I didn't think I was going to have a great experience, but this location surpassed my expectations by a long shot. I was very impressed with Taco Empreso! #tacoempreso #tacoempresoedisonnj #tacos #halaltacos

I've been here a couple months ago, and it's wild to see how much it has grown in popularity. The last few times we have visited, it has been packed or overflowing with customers. A good sign, if you ask me! The tacos are uniquely curated and not your typical selection. I had a Smashburger taco, because I love ground beef, and also a delicious shrimp taco. Any one you get, it is tasty, fresh, prepared right in front of your eyes, and my best of all- so colorful! There is a salsa/sauce/lime bar, which is constantly refilled and has plenty of to-go cups and boxes. I cannot recommend the Agua de Horchata drink enough. When I see Horchata on a menu, I automatically gravitate towards it. Here, the drink is not too thick or overwhelming in flavor. It is nicely balanced with the cinnamon and milky tastes. If you get the 16 oz, the drink comes in a cute square shaped cup. Love this taco joint and coming by every so often to see what is new on the menu and how well they are doing. There is plenty of parking in the plaza lot. If you are in the area, I highly recommend. Definitely worth a shot!
