I am shocked that this place has such hot and cold reviews, because we have been here 3 times and…read moreevery time it has been amazing. We have come mostly on a Friday afternoon for dinner and the place is very empty. Which is so sad because the decor alone is reason enough to come here and give them a chance! It is like transporting yourself to a fun restaurant in downtown Cancun. Every single wall is painted or has some type of artisanal art work....plus can we talk about the GIANT HORSE in the middle of the restaurant! Alright now for the food, I would highly recommend getting the tacos Al pastor. They are some of the best tacos and come filled to the brim with delicious meat and pineapple. We always get a plate of these! The next thing I would not miss are the sopes, my husband loves these because they remind him of crunchy arepas. They bring a delicious salad, tons of cheese and meat. Just make sure to ask for some salsa Verde and creme to go with them. Finally if you like Birria, I highly recommend the Queso Birria or the Birria Pizza if you have an appetite. Both have perfectly seasoned meat and great for sharing. As for drinks I would not miss the Mangonaza or the Horchata, both are perfect to balance your meals. Make sure to check this place out and see what you think, you will probably see me there too!

Unfortunately this place was supremely underwhelming to me for my first try. I ordered the Steak,…read moreChicken, and Shrimp Fajitas, along with the Al Pastor Tacos, and EVERYTHING was over cooked. The shrimp were some of the mushiest shrimp I've ever had. I had high hopes for this place being that it just opened its Ewing location. I might give it another shot, but no time soon.

It's took me a long time to finally check this place out. I knew about it, and I even knew where…read moreit was supposed to be located, but I'd driven by it a thousand times without going in...largely due to the very small sign located over the location. I didn't actually realize it was where I wanted to go until I was parking in front of it. As mentioned in other reviews, the dining space inside is small and very basic--which is fine. The portion of the store selling Mexican food staples is in the front as you enter, and the handful of dine-in tables are located at the back of the store between the store's aisles and the kitchen counter. What finally got me there to visit was that it was open for breakfast, and while a lot of places say they're open for breakfast, opening up at 9AM twice a week doesn't qualify. El Sabor Oaxaqueño 2 is open for breakfast most days at 6AM, because they serve people who are working their butts off and who need a good meal. The breakfasts at El Oaxaqueño 2 serve that need. My Chilaquiles Verde were spicy, but not super spicy, and it was served with rice and black beans. My carne asada was an addition as were my fried eggs. You can also get chicken breast (pechuga) or a red sauce if that's more your style. My wife's Huevos con Chorizo were very flavorful and very filling. They were also served with rice and black beans, along freshly made tortillas and a stick of cheese to crumble over your meal. She was only able to finish off half her plate, and we took home the rest. Our next visit was for dinner, and because I couldn't decide on what I wanted, we split three plates between us. First up was my Tacos de Tripa. I asked for the tripa (pork chitterlings, not tripe) to be well cooked so that it was crunchy, and they served them up just as I like them. They were topped with chopped onion and garlic, and once topped with the spicy green fresh salsa, we gobbled them down. The tortillas were freshly made and had a nice texture. The next dish was the chicken enchiladas en mole. Four enchiladas were well stuffed with white chicken meat then bathed in flavorful mole and served with rice and beans. Thankfully, it wasn't topped with a ridiculously huge glob of melted cheese. Last was the Quesadilla--not your Mama's quesadilla either. It was huge, and it wasn't as cheesy as the quesadillas the average person knows. Inside it was stuffed almost like a taco with big pieces of shrimp in one half and carne asada in the other. There was cheese, but cheese was not the star as it is in the average quesadilla we're all used to. It was good, and we both enjoyed it--it was just a surprise. The place is far from fancy, but they serve real food, and it's real good.

I'm very happy I gave it a try. It was a few miles away but tucked into an area I would have not have known about. The small parking lot was filled so I parked next door at a seedy liquor store. Inside are about 8 tables and a large open kitchen. There are a few options available at a steam table at the front, a few stews and a soup that all looked great, I may just go with one of those next time. While waiting for my to go order I could see the cooks taking pride in their craft. There were a few gringos like me dining in, and the dishes they ordered were plated beautifully. Once home I tore into my guac and chips first. Sturdy homemade chips with a citrusy guac. I just wished the guac had been put into a container so I could eat it later. The chicken tostadas looked a little beat up from the drive but were not soggy and were very well made. The chicken had been lightly charred on the flat top and all the ingredients blended perfectly. A note on the sauces, both red and green were thin ish, but very good. I was surprised that neither were too hot! I had the chicken empanadas for dinner and was again very pleased . These are on the larger size but a bit thin. As I was heating them I could detect a smoky flavor. The filling was excellent. It appeared to be chunks of roasted bird blended with potato, peas and carrots. It came with a separate baggie of shredded cabbage and carrots that I forgot about until just now. I get empanada often, and these were some of the best recent ones. The restaurant also has some sweet treats available in cases at the front, I kind of regret not trying any of those. Customer service was very good and with no language barriers. If this was closer it would probably become a regular stop for me. But I'll definitely return when I'm at the farmers market. 4.5 stars.....

The only thing that we were kind of upset about was that the pork was very dry and burnt. It was very hard to cut and certainly didn't go down easy. Salad was all fresh ingredients. The rice and beans were all fresh. The shrimps were fresh. However, the special dish that I had gotten was not fulfilling and I'm not sure we will be coming back. It kills me to write this because it's hard to find really good food in our area hence why my wife and I travel for great meals and memorable meals. It was just a long tired week of work.

The service is upfront and nice. My son ordered a chicken burrito and he loved it as well. The ambiance of the resturant is similar to the one in Ewing, which is vibrant and full of traditional Mexican cultural references (animals, Catrinas, El chapulin, and so on). We came to see the World Cup games and they have huge giant tvs and best of all they are BYOB. So make sure to bring something delicious to pass your tacos down with before you get here. Overall I will defintely be returning, and you should come here too!

They've a good menu…read morewith most of the usual suspects on it, and they're located next to a small market where you can pick up a bag Cacahuates Japoneses to enjoy on the drive home. Service is friendly and efficient. Orders are made at the counter, or, dare you dare, via QR codes located at the table. Parking is limited, and because it's located between two one-way streets, it can be tricky coming in to or leaving. The Sopes at La Taqueria are a must to try. They're heavily ladened with tasty toppings, and I'd order them again in a heartbeat. The chorizo sope was especially good, and had enough chorizo on it to make two Sopes. Be forewarned that you will not have clean hands after eating them. On another visit I tried the fish tacos. Fish tacos at La Taqueria are the chopped/shredded variety rather than the deep fried filet version. The tortillas themselves were heated well, but were nothing special, nor was the flavor of the fish itself anything remarkable. I expected something more interesting from the place. On the flip side, I also tried a Taco de Tripa, asking for it to be cooked crisp (Tripa in Mexico is pork chitterling, not tripe) and it was very, very (feel free to insert more verys) good, and is definitely a taco I'll try again and again. During our most recent visit, we had the Enchiladas de Pollo en Mole, which brought four enchiladas in a deeply flavored mole with rice and beans. The mole was not sweet like so many other moles in other area restaurants, but was instead relying heavily on the flavors of the chiles. It was very tasty, and a nice change from the usual sweet moles. We also had an excellent Huarache de Lengua, a thick, oval tortilla ladened with beef tongue. I have a feeling my wife will be ordering it each time we return. In addition, we ordered a bowl of the Sopa de Panza y Pata, a soup with a spicy broth and loaded with cow's hooves and tripe. It was a meal in itself, and was also served with rice on the side along with some thick corn gorditas. I was torn between four and five stars here, and if the fish tacos hadn't been such a bust, they'd probably have gotten that fifth star. La Taqueria is definitely in the top tier of local Mexican/Guatemalan restaurants, and will be part of our regular rotation going forward.
