We got the al pastor and lengue tacos. This al pastor did not come with pineapples, but the meat was juicy regardless. The lengue tacos were on the drier side but still had a nice chew and were flavored ok. Not the best tacos I've had (I'd say Cali does them better and cheaper), but still a good option in northwest Jersey!

My husband and I visited this place for the first time the other night. We ordered their Steak and pulled (fried) pork tacos. The steak came in an order of 4 tacos for $11.50 and the pulled pork came in an order of 5 for $11.50. Coming out of the kitchen are just the flour tortillas with the meats on them. They have a toppings bar for you to add as many toppings and sauces you'd like. We enjoyed our tacos, although my husband felt it was a bit too oily. We also ordered mango milkshakes. They were nothing special. Better to stick with the Jarritos sodas next time. When the check came, they had 2 different totals listed: cash or credit. They pretty much put it on the customer to pay for the merchant credit fee. It wasn't as if we got a discount for using cash, it was how much everything costs anyway. Wait staff was friendly. It did take some time to get our check, probably because it was busy on a Saturday night.

My grilled chicken tacos were bland and nearly overcooked, with no juiciness to moderate the raw white onions they were served with. My guac was chunky, served cold, and lacked aromatics, textures, and even salt. The chips I got were hard and thick; difficult to crunch on. All in all I felt this location of La Bamba was inferior to its cousin in Boonton.

I thought all the food was very tasty and they've definitely improved since our first visit. Also helps that they serve alcohol now. We'll definitely be back again, maybe on a weekend to see if the atmosphere is more lively.

***2 1/2 stars***…read more It's rare that I have a mediocre experience where I actually want to go back to the place to give it another shot. I came here yesterday for a post-Odyssey meal with my top-tier chum from the Kingdom of Sussex around 3:30pm. We found this place by playing one of my favorite games, Yelp Roulette, where you scroll through the nearby activity feed and just pick a place that shows up on there. You can really get burned doing that, or find an interesting spot you wouldn't have otherwise stumbled upon. This one was a little column A, a little column B. The overall space is what Norte 175 really has going for it - it's a really cool building, and they've done some edgy interior decorating. It's super spacious and definitely a place I could see myself coming back for drinks in the future. My chum got a margarita but I'm in training so had to forego - arguably, maybe that was the issue; comparing notes, the drink was probably the best item either of us had, and I didn't get it. And it IS a tequila bar. I did get a diet soda, which had solid carbonation, so there's that at least. Neither of us were insanely hungry (we had a bit of fuel before our three-hour movie screening) so we split three apps - the guac, the chicken quesadilla and the grilled octopus. None of them were particularly noteworthy. Palate preference, but the guac had way too much stuff in it for me; I like a smooth, avocado-forward guac, not obscenely chunky with tons of onions guac. The octopus was not the best - texture is really important with that dish, and this one was way too chewy. The accompanying sauce didn't do enough to negate that for me. And the quesadilla was just okay; a bit bland and could probably use some kind of aioli sauce in it, or perhaps more seasoning overall with the chicken. It was fine and the best of the three, which sadly isn't saying much. We also got the raspberry lemon mousse cake (well, pretty much I did - my chum had literally one bite to be polite). As you can see from the attached, it doesn't look like anything like its stock photo on the menu, which is worth noting - still looks fine but given how different it looks in person, arguably false advertising on some level. If you're thinking about getting it, I'd rely on customer photos versus the menu if the optics are important to you. Tasty but a little too sweet - they doubled down, essentially, on the tartness, which made it a bit overwhelming, but I could easily see a lot of people being into this. The service was just okay. Our waitress did stop by occasionally but just didn't seem to be in a great mood. It honestly felt like a bit of an imposition to ask her for anything. Obviously could have just been having a bad day, but when your primary responsibility is hospitality dot dot dot. She wasn't mean by any stretch but I just wouldn't categorize her as pleasant. Is what it is. This place could really benefit from its location, literally five minutes from the Rockaway Mall - and this isn't an area with an enormous amount of options beyond the chains, so they have a legit opportunity to cash in if they can improve the food options. We'll see what happens in the future with round two.
