Can't speak to the food but my friend's taco was well made and came with all the necessary sauces and toppings. The DJ here was basically a one man show. He performed even though there wasn't much of a crowd, but made all the tables feel welcomed by coming up to them and offering to do a duet. The music was good, the lighting with the disco ball was really fun. If you live in the area and are looking for some fun Friday night plans, put Dona Maria on your list. You will definitely not be disappointed.

The meat in the tacos was also kind of dry. The consommé was extremely oily, had no taste, and no beef in it as well. I really like birria tacos, but these were just not good. Even the birria tacos shells had no flavor from the juices and there was barely any cheese in the tacos. The food just lacked flavor in all. I appreciate the radish on the side. I would not order these again from here. I submitted this review on Google and they replied with a false story of how I went in person and came before closing along with order statements insinuating I was being disrespectful to them. I ordered delivery on DoorDash (this was the first time) and have never been inside this store before. This was the first and last time eating from this place.

They are a couple of outdoor tables too if you prefer to eat outside. We ordered the Birria bowl and the AL pastor bowl which came out pretty fast. Before that a basket of chips and salsa were given to us which hit the spot too. The bowls were flavorful and really filled us up. Rice, black beans, all the fix-ins and some birria sauce on the side for me to drizzle all over the meat. This I would consider an authentic Mexican restaurant in the middle of North Arlington. If you're in the area definitely give this a try!

Since I live in the area, there is not a more reliable store than this one within walking distance…read more The name El Gran Bodegon is exactly what it is, a large bodega. They have a small produce section in the front as well as a carniceria (butcher station) in the back. I tend to do most of my groceries at larger supermarkets because the prices are more wholesale, but when I forget to get something or just plain too lazy to do all that shopping, I can get everything I need here. I swear, any Latin American meal you wish to prepare within an hour's notice, they have ALL the ingredients here. During the summer, I've gotten charcoal and bags of ice here for last-minute barbecue plans. Oh, and unlike many other places in the area, everything I've gotten here was fresh, never expired. They share a small parking lot in the back of the store with the pharmacy next door so parking is a little easier just in case you need to fill your trunk with groceries. They even have mini-carts. However, its benefits are almost its undoing, as it can get packed as hell in here. Be prepared for some physical contact with some of the less slim clientele while squeezing through the aisles, which is the only downside, but common in places like this. I think they have a minimum of $10 or $15 to use a debit or credit card. They also have a decent variety of cigarettes and household items behind the counter.

I was in Passaic on my way to grab some tacos. I happened to park right next to Angies Deli &…read moreRestaurant, so I took a look at the menu to find that they served goat (chivo) tacos! It's a small colorful restaurant, with big windows and a few tables for seating. We opted to dine in. The waitress took our order quickly and brought us some complimentary chips and salsa while we waited. The salsa was very fresh, and the chips crispy. I ordered lengua (tongue), chivo (goat), cabeza (head), orejas (pig ear), and cecina (smoked meat) tacos. I came specifically for the chivo, which had the nice gamey flavor of goat and was extremely tender. All the tacos were very tender, except the cecina, which was the most well seasoned and had the most chew. My other favorites are the soft gelatinous orejas tacos and the rich, fatty cabeza tacos. The tacos were only on a single tortilla, but i actually prefer that so that they're less filling. The single tortilla was able to hold in the ingredients just fine. Best of all, this place is super cheap. Each taco was $1.50 or less. This is now my new favorite taco spot.

Truly one of the worst customer service experiences I have had…read more My family and I have been loyal takeout customers here for about four years, but after this situation, we will not be returning. One issue with DoorDash turned into an extremely frustrating and disappointing experience because of how poorly it was handled by the restaurant staff, especially the manager. I placed a delivery order through DoorDash a day in advance for Mother's Day and scheduled it about four hours ahead of time. Around 30 minutes before the delivery time, I received a notification from DoorDash stating that the restaurant was unable to fulfill the order. Since I still needed the food, I placed a second order for pickup through DoorDash with the same items. Assuming the cancellation may have been due to limited availability, I called the restaurant several times to confirm that they could fulfill the new pickup order. When I finally got through, I explained the situation to the manager. Instead of listening or trying to help, she immediately assumed the first order had been stolen and suggested that I may have been involved. I explained multiple times that DoorDash notified me that the restaurant cancelled the delivery order, but she kept insisting that the order was stolen and said they would not fulfill my new pickup order because they were taking the previous order as a loss. I then tried to cancel the pickup order through DoorDash, but because the restaurant had already marked it as "In-Work," DoorDash showed that I would receive a $0 refund. I went to the restaurant in person to explain the situation and clarify that the second order was completely separate from the cancelled delivery order. The manager continued to insist that the first order was stolen and repeatedly told me to contact DoorDash, even though the restaurant's actions directly affected whether I could cancel or receive a refund. To make the situation worse, I ended up placing three separate orders: one delivery order through DoorDash, one pickup order through DoorDash, and one phone order directly with the restaurant. Even after I paid, the manager refused to let me leave with the food because the payment involved DoorDash. The entire situation went back and forth for about half an hour with no real solution, no accountability, and no attempt to help a loyal customer. This experience was incredibly disappointing. After years of supporting this restaurant without issue, it only took one poorly handled situation to make us never want to return. Customer service matters, especially when something goes wrong. Unfortunately, the staff showed no professionalism, empathy, or willingness to resolve the problem. There are plenty of other restaurants in the area, and after this experience, we will be taking our business elsewhere. If the business is not loyal to the customer, why should the customer be loyal to the business. It's business 101. They decided to break a 4 year relationship over $40 dollars. A chain restaurant should have alternatives.

We visited this location attempting to eat lunch. It was an…read moreextremely hot day, and the restaurant felt like there was absolutely no air conditioning on. The restaurant itself was tiny. There might be 5 tables, and one restroom. There were 2 tables outside in front. When I entered, no one was there inside the dining area, except a staff member sitting at a table. I approached the counter, and I saw three women. On the counter were quarters in little plastic bags. I inquired as to whether they were serving lunch, and I was told that they were. I was also told to just sit down. We went to sit down, and we're told to move to a bigger table, so we did. We were asked what we wanted to drink and we all said water. I asked if they had bottled water and the waitress said yes. I asked her what kind and she didn't understand what I was saying. She didn't understand that I was asking for a brand, like Aquafina, or Poland Spring. The waitress had trouble understanding us speaking English, so we decided to leave and go to another La Fortaleza. Therefore, I cannot comment on the food. There was street parking.
