Unfortunately, the food was a bit cold when I picked it up, not the type of cold as if the food has just been made in because it was sitting out it got cold, but rather the type of cold when they try to reheat something up. I got their tacos al pastor, and, unfortunately, they were not to my liking . The meat was very hard and not as tasty as I wish it would've been. My boyfriend got some enchiladas with rice and beans, and both rice and beans were cold. The service was very nice and they were very kind, which is why I'm giving them more than just one star. Unfortunately, this is at the lowest of my list of Mexican restaurants. I've tried in New Jersey.

The man at the front (I wish I got his name) was awesome. He was so friendly and even comped our diet coke and jarritos. We started with chips and guac. The portion of guac was so generous and it was so creamy and flavorful with the seasonings, tomato, and onion. I got a chicken burrito and it was the best burrito that I can remember having. It was a big portion and the sauces on top really made the dish. That avocado crema was amazing. We finished with a tres leches that had such bright flavors and a perfect texture. Ambiance is super casual and restaurant was very well heated. A great cozy spot for some amazing Mexican food!

The food is probably the closest you can get to actual Spanish tapas but what i love most about this place is that everythings got flavorrrrr For our table of 4 we got CROQUETAS with their house cured chorizo- very good POLLO FIORENTINA- chicken was so tender and packeddd with flavor! BARRIGUITA- plentiful serving for a tapa, we loved the potatoes it came with too CHICHARRON DE POLLO- flavorful chicken and easier to eat than you think TARTAR- delish but small Chipirones- sooo delicately breaded you can barely tell, was great COSTILLA A LA PLANCHA- plentiful for a tapa, we recommend cooking for longer since its traditionally a tough cut of beef SAUTED VEGETABLES- tastey and not mushy thankfully!

When I was there, they had a DJ playing, and it added energy without being too loud or overwhelming. The Service was very good, the waiter answered and helped with all our questions. The food was absolutely amazing really flavorful and well done. Just be a little prepared that most dishes come in smaller portions. But the quality definitely makes up for it. I ordered the paella, and it's easily enough for two or even three people and it was well worth it. Really delicious. The drinks were also definitely worth trying while you're there. The only thing I wasn't big on was the desserts they didn't quite live up to the rest of the meal. But overall, great atmosphere, excellent food, and a fun experience. I'd definitely come back.

I've been a customer of this place for a while, and honestly, I used to really like their food. But…read moremy experience with their service has become extremely frustrating and disappointing. A couple of years ago, I wasn't able to pick up an order due to a situation I couldn't control. Ever since then, they've refused to let me place orders. Every time I call, I'm told I'm not allowed to order or have food delivered to my house because of that one cancellation. It feels unfair to be permanently blocked over a single incident from two years ago. What makes this even more upsetting is that I've stayed loyal despite some serious issues. At one point, I even found a cockroach in my food. While I did report it at the time, I chose not to leave a public review because I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt. They only replaced the food and didn't offer a refund or any real apology. I tried to continue supporting this place, but being denied service over and over again has made it clear that customer loyalty doesn't matter to them. It's disappointing because the food is good, but the way they treat customers makes it hard to justify coming back.

I'm pretty sure it's fried, and honestly, I could eat the shell by itself. The portion size is BIG.

It's a small hole-in-the-wall with only a few tables, and yes, you'll hear a lot of banging from the grill while they cook, but that's part of the charm. Prices are unbelievable--two taco bowls and two Mountain Dews ran us about $20 total! Where else can you get that? Service was great, they take cash and cards, and the food alone makes it worth dealing with the sometimes tricky parking in downtown Newark. I'll definitely be back to try the quesadillas, tacos, and more!!
