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!

The booths that once bore great tomato pies, are now primarily for Guatemaltecans to enjoy the superior comidas that come out of the new kitchen. The place is clean, with Tiffany-style light fixtures descending from the ceiling, and a very friendly, bilingual staff ready to assist this first time customer. The lunch menu is fairly comprehensive with variations of beef, chicken and pork used as primary ingredients in styles Asada, Empanizada, a la Mexicana and Encebollado. They also do the traditional Tostados, Quesadillas, Burritos, Tortillas and Tacos. I ordered the Pechuga Empanizada (Breaded Chicken Cutlet with Rice and Black Beans), and Jugos Naturales de Pina (Pineapple Juice). The plate came with Black Beans and White Rice. It was very big for a lunch. There were two large, thin breaded chicken breasts, lightly browned, with a wedge of lime for seasoning. A couple of raw onion rings, slices of radish, and a pile of lettuce completed the performance. I cut everything with my fork and enjoyed every bite. All was tasty, complementary, and filling (I did not finish the rice). The Pineapple Juice was cool and refreshing with a nice bite of just juiced pulpy fruit. This was an excellent lunch in a comfortable setting. At under $10 for everything (plus tip), I was very satisfied, and happy that another historic Italian house was now transformed into an equally qualified newcomer from Central America. Buena Suerte!

That's why I avoid Chipotle like the plaque and head to Plainsboro, NJ for a fast meal at the Mexican Post. For any activity you could imagine, Plainsboro is never crowded and is routinely forgotten even by the people that live there. The Post delivers a formidable veggie burrito and tasty fish tacos with absolutely no wait. A perfect alternative when all you want to do is grab something well constructed, delicious and inexpensive and... get out of Dodge before lunch turns into a late night snack. Chipotle can keep the crowds and their debatable wisdom, I'll take the Mexican Post. Five stars.

They used a lot of filler like carrots, potatoes, celery and etc. that's my only complaint about the food. The chicharrones were flavorful and the bistek was juicy! Food here is pretty good. Just don't order the mondongo.

Well, I am here to tell you to stop in and eat everything off the menu, because it is AMAZING! We have been here twice and both times were good, but breakfast was better. I ordered the Gallo Pinto, which is a Costa Rican dish that includes black beans mixed with rice, a meat, fried cheese, egg, sausage, sweet plantains and a tortilla. The rice alone is worth having, so definitely give this a try. It is a magnificent spread that can feed two or good for sharing with a hungry toddler like mine. Hubby had the Chifrijol (black beans, white rice, crunchy fried pork layered on top pico de gallo & avocado) which was JUST as tasty just a bit small on the portion compared to mine. But a bargain for the $10 price, so absolutely give it a try for the chicharron (pork rinds) alone! Now as far as the bakery goes, we ordered a slab (yes, a mean a slab) of their corn bread and it is the best thing I've tasted in a while. It is a combination of perfectly homemade mixed with hints of the motherland that really make it out of this world. Each additional bite made it more and more appetizing. Get this. My toddler also wanted pancakes which we got 3 kid portion pancakes WITH bacon for only $4! And for a Latin spot, they make amazing pancakes! I also have to add that the service here is great, the whole restaurant is sparking clean and so cute inside. You get warm bread as you wait for your meal. The coffee is phenomenal and comes in GIANT mug. I really can't say more except...come spend your money here....order grub hub from here...and let me know if you like it!
