I ordered tacos al pastor, AND OMG, they come in 5, and they pack these tacos UP!! I mean, they do NOT go cheap on the meat, and they add the average add ons, cilantro, onion, and radish. They also come with 2 sauces, very delicious. The meat was well cooked, juicy, and VERY flavorful. The cooks did a grand job, and for the price too it was great. $14 for 5, and 5 VERY WELL MADE tacos. I cannot recommend this any more than I can, they have indoor seating as well. I will be coming back for more, I will be a regular. Thanks SO MUCH for the great food.

I'm rarely in Elizabeth, but I was here with my cousin and we stopped in for lunch yesterday…read more Pretty darn authentic Mexican for sure! We ordered a few items and split everything. The food was really fresh and well made. We had the Mariachi and soft chicken tacos. Guac and chips were spot on. We also had a chirozo dish and I can't remember what it was called, but it was delicious.

I came for a Plant Bingo event and had a great time. Valet parking was $5 plus tip, but getting in…read morewas a little slow because of the rush of cars arriving for the event. Plant Bingo was a blast! Because of the weather, the event had to be moved from the outdoor space into the main dining room. The acoustics weren't ideal, but the energy was high and everyone still had a great time. IT GETS WILD AT PLANT BINGO! (check my videos LOL) Menus are on tablets, which was a nice modern touch. The chicken quesadilla was an easy 5 stars. No complaints at all. My ticket included a complimentary house margarita, and it was delicious. The decor is a fun mix of Día de Muertos and '80s vibes, with colorful artwork, TVs throughout, and a large bar. Service was fast, although the bus staff was a little too attentive... they cleared my drink before I had finished it. All-in-all positive experience... I'd be open to coming back for dinner on a regular night.

The restaurant itself is such a vibe. I love the vibrant colors of the restaurant. The food was…read morereally good and the presentation was great. Our server was very pleasant, but unfortunately didn't speak English at all so when my friend asked to pack up her food, they got rid of it instead. They gave back the charge receipt, but without the credit card and it took forever to get them back to the table. Overall, I liked it, but the end of our experience was not great. Quick update: my friend reached out to the manager because after throwing her away the offered to make her another but only sent her home with 2 ribs and the peppers without the chorizo that she didn't even touch our the veggies and plantains. We were stupid for not checking first for sure. She ate two of the three ribs so I don't even know where they got the second rib that they gave her. I'm assuming they remade them. The manager asked that she text instead because he didn't speak English and wanted to be able to use Google translate I'm bilingual so I understand the struggle, but not being able to speak to anyone including the manager in english is completely unacceptable, in my opinion. I really love this place and will always support local Businesses but after bringing in new patrons and having this experience I would not put my name on a recommendation for them again.

This place might look like a total hole in the wall, but the tacos are seriously on another level…read more Every bite was flavorful and fresh -- the kind that makes you immediately plan your next visit. Orders come in sets of four, so come hungry (or be ready to share if you're feeling nice). The staff were great too -- super accommodating about my no-cilantro request and made sure everything came out exactly right. I'm giving it four stars only because it's more of a quick bite spot than somewhere you hang out, but honestly, the food alone makes it worth the stop

We placed our order at the counter and sat ourselves. It's a pretty hole in the wall type place, but the food is good and it's cheap. Our tacos arrived after a short wait.

Tacos were my favorite as the meat was pulled and juicy . The guacamole with beef tips on top was the best we all agreed it was epic! We will definitely come back.

If you want unlimited sangria or mimosas, great music, and decent food, this is definitely your place. The DJs they bring in are always on point and really set the vibe. That being said, if you're going for top tier food or a lot of variety, this might not be it. Nothing I've tried has been bad, but nothing has really stood out as amazing either. One thing they do not play about is the drinks. Your mimosa or sangria will never be close to empty , the second your glass drops a little, someone is right there to top you off. Overall, it's a fun brunch spot if you're going for the energy, music, and bottomless drinks.

I also ordered the chorizo dip which was so good. I asked for more chips. Our waitress was perfect. She stopped by and didnt rush us. I really appreciated it. The music was a mix of current music and 90s hip hop and r&b classics. I had a great time. Id definitely go back. I really liked the decor as you can tell by the photos.
