Despite other reviews on this place, the staff were actually all friendly and attentive. When I walked in I could tell that this place is no more than a bar with dine-in seating surrounding it. I didn't really find the Birria tacos on their menu however when I inquired about them the waiter stated that they have them. I didn't have to wait long for my food however from the moment my plate arrived it was sheer disappointment. My plate arrived with 3 "Birria" tacos but there was not much about these that said "Birria". They were prepared on flour tortillas that were completely soft with no sign of the classic melted cheese on the tortilla, no limes, and no dipping broth. Of course I asked for limes and broth. The "broth" that was brought to my table appeared to be watered down taco grease and tasted as such! The tacos had a fair amount of meat, onions, and cilantro in the tortilla but these were a far cry from an authentic Birria taco. When I received my check I would discover a charge of $16.08 for a plate of Americanized tacos. Meat was dry and quite tasteless. If you're looking for a place that does not serve authentic Mexican food with higher than a giraffe's nuts pricing then this is your spot!!! I will not be a repeat customer.

This is one of our favorite places for the cozy family feel and great food, making it a great place to take the family when the kids are in town. The fajitas and flautas are two of our favorite dishes there. The vegetables in the fajitas are fresh , the flautist are crisp and never soggy or reheated, and the food is served hot and always flavorful. Very highly recommend. Good selection of beers and drinks, too.

Highly recommend this restaurant. Always have good, quick service and food is really good!read more

Tlaquepaque in Heath was such a gem! I had the Pollo Fundido (grilled chicken topped with cheese…read moresauce and pico -- I skipped the chorizo) and it was absolutely delicious. Super flavorful, perfectly cooked, and comforting in all the right ways. My only tiny wish? A bit more rice and beans to balance out the generous amount of chicken and sauce. But no real complaints -- I'd 100% order it again. My friend got a steak dish and enjoyed it too -- said the only thing they'd tweak was grilling the onions a little more. Still solid overall! Also, don't skip the Jamaica agua fresca -- it was light, refreshing, and so good with the meal. The staff were incredibly kind and attentive, and the whole place gave me that familiar, homey feel I usually only get from spots back in California. Highly recommend if you're in the area -- great food, great service, and definitely worth a stop!

The murals on the wall are beautiful and it's always clean inside. Food: Tacos are great. Ranked the best in licking country for a reason. They're solid with plenty of choices for protein. I'd recommend Breakfast burrito is delicious. Crispy tater tots, perfectly cooked eggs and chorizo, and so cheesy. This is one of the best breakfast burritos I've had. I'd highly recommend. Smash burgers are delicious. Flavorful, juicy, perfectly smashed. Absolutely phenomenal and I get two quad stacks every time. I personally enjoy taking them home to add peanut butter and jam. Don't knock it until you try it. Trust me. I'd recommend. 10x10x10 food challenge is amazing. Ten Pattie's, 10 cheese, and 10 bacon. Incredible fun and stupidly delicious.

An eclectic Mexican Restaurant in downtown Newark close to the Court House with a few parking spots…read moreon the street and a small patio with maybe 4 tables. We parked around the corner and walked to Mariposa. We Noticed that the man hole covers had maps of the Earthworks. The walk to Mariposa's restroom was interesting. It winds all the way to the back of the building past exposed brick walls showing the buildings history. There are maybe 10 booths or tables along the left or right walls Down the center is a HUGE community table. I came with a group of close to 30 seated at the community table. Which was perfect for us! We rolled in right at noon on Taco Tuesday. (They were expecting us) One waitress was assigned to our table. She was great! Chips +salsa was served with glasses of cold water for each diner at our community table when we walked in. The salsa was mild but also cooked and served warm. The chips had a hint of lime. Hubs had the smothered chicken burrito and said it was fantastic. One huge burrito stuffed with rice, beans, meat) with queso Blanco poured over the top. There may have been more inside the burrito. I ordered the "any 3 Tacos for $10" Special and enjoyed chicken, carnitas, baria with consume. I'm a big barra fan and never pass up the opportunity to find great baria. The barria was just ok but the consume tasted burned. And since the taco was grilled in the consume the entire taco was unpleasant. Also served on the side was a small verde salsa with a little kick. Loved it! I scraped the protein out of the tacos for a lower carb lunch with the zucchini and really enjoyed my meal. We agreed we would return next time we are in Newark. By the way, we were there to tour the newest UNISCO World Heritage Site- the Great Circle Ceremonial Earthworks. The museum is open Thursday-Sunday from 10-4. At 2:00 a Docent hosts a tour of the circle. Best $10 I've spent in a long time! Make a half day of it and visit the Earthworks and Mariposa while in Newark.

My rating would be a 3 on a few things and a 4 on others but the staff is so friendly and nice it bumps it to a 4 easy, Its hard to find genuinely nice people and they are either great actors or my guess is good nice staff!! Fajitas are very good if I would have only got shrimp, it was tender and delicious and all the veggies were perfect but the steak is not so good and would skip that next time. It's tough and not much flavor. The tacos were all good, the Beria taco dipping sauce was weird and not our jam. Overall a nice spot in downtown Newark that we will try again.

I was quickly seated and served a basket of warm chips and a thick delicious salsa. My drink came soon after. I opted for the steak street tacos which were the special today. The meat was well seasoned and tender. The tacos had a nice mix of cilantro and onion. The side of rice was average and not a favorite with me. The service was top notch. Wait staff was friendly and checked on me regularly. The restaurant was pretty clean although the entrance and doors could use a cleaning. I'd return when back in the area.
