    Shredded chicken quesadilla
    Cheri A.

    So good! I got the chicken quesadilla and a plain churro. My husband got a carnitas, chicken, pastor and asada tacos and said they were great too! Service was nice and food was quick. There is a separate truck for alcohol so we also got a chelada. The food cart is located in a food truck area with nice outdoor seating that has shade. Overall great, would definitely recommend.

    Nothing like a great torta on locally made bread. As I've stated before, 82nd is the place to find some really good stuff if you know where to look. I randomly passed by this area and found a small food pod. Cuban food, Korean and Rosita's. All were great options but I needed to move quickly for an appointment so I figured the torta would be the quickest. Carne Asada was my choice. They didn't have too many meat choice, but it is a food cart. All the standard veggies were on the sandwich. Avocado, onions, tomato, jalapenos, but surprisingly no beans. Believe me the food was good, but I was looking for some frijoles to add an extra layer. The sandwich was a good size and the habanero sauce I got with it wasn't too hot but had some good flavor to it. I'd easily stop back here soon, but I know I'd also like to try the other spots in the group of carts as well. Enjoy.

    CREME filled and warm for $1.50!

    Another hidden gem. I can't count how many different breakfast burritos/sandwiches I've tried, the version here is one of the better. I suggest skipping the ham at any Mexican hole-in-the wall or cart as it's usually of very low quality. Their orange sauce is hot, but not overbearing, just right for the breakfast burrito. The refried beans were perfect, get that black bean stuff away from me. The star of the show were the warm, creme-filled Churros for $1.50. Nice owners who run it, a bit on the slow side.

    5. Wet Burrito

    Unfortunately they no longer have Chile rellenos, but I got a carnitas burrito with ranchero sauce and the flavor was fantastic, enough for two meals as well.

    Yes!!!!!! All you need to know is YES!!!!!!! Street tacos al pastor. Really good, and the perfect late breakfast (sort of lunch at this point).

    Had an amazing taco salad here. One of things I've noticed in everything I have ordered from here, is the freshness of the ingredients and also very distinct delicious flavors. So many mexican carts are good, but don't really stand out to you. This definitely stands out and is worth the trip!! I also on another visit ordered the taquitos and I pictured just plain old taquitos, but they came with fresh salsa made right there and were not just bland. My point here is, definitely stop here - delicious and the owners are great!

    Tuesday: Chimichanga special
    Huong D.

    We came here because of all the hype reviews. The quality was really great and it was made with the freshest ingredient and all but I was actually disappointed in the food. The food was bland. The grilled chicken was not seasoned or something as it did not really taste authentic and same goes for the asada. The carne asada had a really strong peppery taste, mainly the pepper overpowered the rest of the taste of the asada and other seasonings. Im not sure how they do chimichangas here or was it just badly made because it was a Tuesday special. I saw picture of it on yelp looking extra crunchy but mine came pretty soggy and soft (even thought it was a take out, it was like 5 minutes from my house). The inside was alright nothing that jump out. It tasted straight up like a bean burrito with cheese it wasn't that great with all the ooze supposedly beans? The three additional side was superb though! Salsa, sour cream and delicious guacamole. I was looking forward to the asada fries but mine was really dry. I thought it suppose to have cheese sauce in it? Mine didn't come with cheese sauce just shredded cheese, asada, sour cream and a freshly made salsa on top. Some pieces of french fry were over fried so it was extra crispy and crunchy. All in all maybe we came in the wrong time? But it wasn't that great compared to the copious amount of Mexican food carts on 82nd stripe. But I'll have to say they use fresh ingredients, clean environment, fresh to order. The additional sour cream, salsa and guacamole on the side to accompany the chimichanga was a nice touch to showcase their fresh ingredients. Maybe I will try other menu items next time.

    Chicken quesadilla, carne Asada fries, carne Asada chimichanga.
    Brad M.

    Wow is this food absurdly delicious. I'm so full after half a quesadilla that I feel like I ordered too much food. The carne asada fries are perfect for a group. My wife got the chimichanga and is loving it.

She made sure we had everything we needed and, continue to check on us throughout our meal. Ambiance~It's has a very calming vibe and atmosphere. I love the fact they have a privacy strip on the windows (so no one walking by watches you eat). It's a family owned restaurant and, I would recommend giving them a try. I feel what we ordered was worth it but, everything (except water) has a charge. Only street parking and, lots of indoor/outdoor seating.

Both the fish and the prawns were cooked in a red sauce that was delicious! I meant to ask for blue corn tortillas but was so excited to find shrimp & fish tacos that weren't deep-fried that I forgot to ask for them. The regular corn tortillas were excellent, though, so it was not a bad mistake to make. I also had jamaica to drink and let me tell you... it was not made from a mix! It was dark, thirst-quenching, and perfectly made. Most jamaica is super sweet - this was not! I love the flavor of real hibiscus and this did not disappoint. My friends had chile relleno bowls and birria tacos, all of which was excellent. Their watermelon margaritas were tasty and refreshing! Our orders were taken by a helpful person at the cash register and the food was served quickly by a friendly server. The inside and outside areas were clean and tidy, with plenty of seating available at the outside tables. The outdoor seating area is under cover making it a good choice for both summer & winter dining. Definitely going on my "have to go back and try something else" list!

Such a small detail that makes a big difference. The Citrus Salad was super fresh, crisp, and delicious, which balanced everything out perfectly. I also tried the NA classic margarita and it was so refreshing. I loved the subtle touch of orange juice. Overall, such a lovely spot with amazing food, great vibes, and thoughtful details. I will definitely be back!

I tried their course menu, and every dish was presented with such care and beauty. What I especially appreciated was how each dish was bursting with flavor without being overly salty or sweet -- something that's surprisingly hard to find at restaurants. The decor is stylish yet welcoming, and the music adds just the right amount of ambiance while still allowing for easy conversation. No need to yell across the table! My pictures (the ones I managed to take before digging in ) really don't do this gem justice, so I highly recommend experiencing it for yourself.

For the amount of food and the overall experience, I thought it was a great way to experience the restaurant. Ángel took care of us and made the meal even more memorable by telling us the story and inspiration behind each dish as it came out. It made the tasting feel like much more than just trying a bunch of different dishes. I'm definitely a carnivore and usually feel like a meal needs some kind of meat, but surprisingly, my favorite dish was the mole with eggplant and rice. The mole was delicious, and I genuinely didn't miss having meat on the plate. I would happily order that dish again exactly as it was. The tomates en salsa arabe were another standout. I really enjoyed how fresh the dish tasted, especially with the seasonal tomatoes they were using. I also had the carnitas tacos, which had great flavor and texture. For dessert, we had what was essentially a fried concha, and I loved that it wasn't overly sweet. It had just the right amount of sweetness for me and was a great way to finish the meal. Overall, I highly recommend doing the full tasting menu at República. For around $40 per person, you get to experience the entire menu, and if you're lucky enough to have Ángel there to walk you through the stories and concepts behind the dishes, it makes the experience that much better.

We asked for the bean dip, but we found out when we received our bill that it's not complimentary anymore. Bummer. It was good, but not worth the extra $5.
