Absolutely inedible. Chicken and pork were so dry and the cut on the radish went from 1 inch to a fraction. Some tacos had 2 shells as requested and paid for others can with 1. How Does that even happen? Keep the money and I will spread the word. I will never Lesser this again. read more

Welcoming storefront with couple tables of outdoor seatings and pretty clean. Recommending nacho fiesta for its freshness -- I didn't ask but the tacos from the nacho fiesta seemed like homemade. The beans tasted good and tomatoes and lettuce were fresh. Cheese were with the right amount. The girl who took our order was efficient, and less than 10min our order was ready. There's not much space inside the restaurant, but it's clean and tidy. read more

My family stopped in here and immediately got the vibe of a very authentic taco shop. There were a good number of diners seated, but we were able to grab a table by the window. For drinks we got Horchata & Jamaica (hibiscus), both were delicious and paired really well with the meal. The food came out pretty quickly, I got shrimp tacos which were just okay (the shrimp lacked the flavor it needed), but were made better with the hot sauces, onions, and lime. I liked that the tacos came with avocado instead of being an expensive add on. The Birria tacos were the standout, highly recommended. The chicken tacos and chorizo tacos were also great. My son also highly recommends the chicken nuggets :) read more

My boyfriend and I were craving tacos and decided to check out Taco House! I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious and filling the tacos were. We called to place an order for pickup and it was ready within 15 min. When you order taco, you have the choice of which vegetables (onions, lettuce, cilantro, etc) you want included. They also come with two sauces -- the red sauce has a decent kick to it! The tacos were simple and full of fresh ingredients and the chicken was cooked well. The nachos were average but unfortunately, not as good as they looked in the picture on their website. The nachos chips were very crispy but the other ingredients and veggies the nachos came with didn't add much flavor. I'll definitely be coming back to try more of their tacos!! (I would not get the nachos again) read more

My burrito had no avocado even though the menu said it brought avocados!! Lady/server was rude about my request for avocado , and I am pretty sure she over charged me! Place had awful smell, Dirty tables and the ladies walking around using same gloves for cooking and cleaning and sorting out delivery. 30+ minutes waiting for a burrito and 3 tacos . Horrible place , don't waste your time or money!!! read more

Great tacos with so much flavor. Found this place during a random search for tacos. Didn't realize how close it was. My food was made precisely and although i planned to take out. It smelled so good i had to eat it there. They provided me with immaculate service. Can't wait to be back. I ate it so fast i forgot to take pics. read more

I stop by whenever I get my bike worked on at Kim's Bike Shop right next door; but I have gone out of my way to eat here before too! It reminds me of the tacos I've gotten in Mexico while on Missions Trips:--the hole-in-the-wall stalls manned by a single grandma that makes the tortillas by hand and walks 6 miles to and from the local butcher shop to procure the best cuts of meat (uphill both ways). But it really does stink of authenticity--as best as my privileged middle-class Asian palate can tell. I recommend the Al Pastor, Tripe and Lengua. Don't ask what it is; just try it. Al Pastor has pineapples: so a nice blend of sweet and savory. The tripe has a crispiness to it that I love. This is one of those places that I have a sneaky suspicion they charge me more because I don't speak Spanish; but I am happy to pay because it is so dang good! read more

Stopped by here with a friend on our way home from a church event and Taco House did not disappoint! We came around 10pm, and while the area is a bit seedy at that time of night (we were warned by some local guys sitting out in the street to be careful), we made it out unscathed. I am sure it's a much different environment during the day, but just wanted to give fair warning to those thinking to visit at night. Now onto the food. It was delicious and authentic. The tacos al pastor were so yummy with the chopped up pineapple mixed in and my friend enjoyed his steak burrito. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The salsas are on point and word to the wise, listen to the waitress when she tells you the red one is really hot, because it really and truly is! Definitely recommend! read more

Taco House - Tacos al pastor - Mexican Near Me - New Brunswick, New Jersey

Great food!!! The birrias are the best I've ever had. The wife and I always order them.

The best taqueria in New Brunswick! Finally, after much searching for the best taco in the area, Taco House is the answer. The best part is that they are served as singles, so you can try multiple flavors! Recently opened, you'll find Taco House on French St. off of 27. It's a brightly colored, tiny shack that churns out delicious and authentic tacos in lightning fast speed. If driving isn't your thing, they even deliver. The tacos here are served DF (Mexico City) style, and are around $2 each. They come in a freshly made corn tortilla, cilantro, onions, and chile de arbol or jalapeno salsa on the side. The best taco I've had there is their al pastor, marinated pork with pineapple. They have plenty of taco choices as well as tortas, quesadillas, and more. Check them out! read more

So While with my son at the hospital I used yelp and based off the reviews thought I'd give this place a shot. I usually live and die by Yelp and for the most part The ratings are pretty accurate. UNTIL this debacle! I don't know if the people who rated this place 4 or 5 stars know the owners and are being nice or never actually ate tacos before. Where do I begin - let's start with ordering "ground beef tacos" consist of sliced beef and cilantro with zero flavor. Then I tried the Chicken Quesadilla And what did I get grilled chicken and mozzarella cheese that seemed old. See photo - in my hand is the contents of the inside of the quesadilla mind you I literally got this 15 minutes prior to the photo. Next up - Chicken Nachos - at this point you can guess - terrible. Chips stale and main ingredient was lettuce lol - college kids some advice instead of wasting your money here - take some Tostitos and shredded cheese and throw it in the microwave - it will win awards compared to this place! The one thing they did get right was sending me extra hot sauce which came in two levels: Green - way to mild and Red - Hotter than hell I don't know if this is suppose to be some version on yuppie college kid Mexican but by far the worst I have ever had! read more

Came here last weekend and I thought it was pretty good! I got the chorizo, which was delicious but a tad too spicy. I also got the al pastor, which was super dry and I had to add a lot of salsa verde. I got the $9/3 tacos deal which I thought was worthwhile! They also have guac and horchata which isn't listed on the menu. Horchata was ok, but the guac was odd. It was more pico de gallo with some chunks of avocado. The chips that came it were really good though. Would totally come back. read more

Wow, I love the Taco place I go to now, but this place is in another world. Each tortillas is had made, light and flakey. The bar-b-que beef was far and away the best taco I have ever had in my life. I work with Spanish people, and am exposed to a lot of Spanish food, but nothing has ever matched the tacos here. They have Tripe and lingua (Tongue) for the more daring. I don't like food to hot, but this was at my limit and not over. The hot is not just peppers added, it is cooked in and leaves you with a smooth heat. The place is new, a family owned, , no menus or printed hours yet, but tons of charm, and let's face it, Tacos are easy to figure out. Ha ha I just realized I am the only native English speaker in a standing room only place. I heard they deliver, no credit cards yet. This place will redefine what a Taco is for us Gringos. Amazing place. Give it a try. J read more

Authentic Mexican food. I didn't have tacos like this since I moved from Queens to central Jersey. Salsas and tortillas home made... everything delicious and awesome prices. Their waitress is excellent as well, we came with our baby and she has all the attention and patience. read more

Amazing food accompanied by a cozy atmosphere. The staff are also really sweet. 10/10 would recommend.

Yelp is categorically under the impression that this place does delivery. After waiting the allotted time and receiving no calls or texts from a delivery driver I called in. The first call it was difficult to hear anything and the lady hung up on me. The second call was better but the lady did not seem to speak very good English. At some point she understood enough of what I was saying to tell me there was no order and they do not deliver. I offered to come pick the food up if the order was there and ready. She repeated that they don't deliver and hung up on me a second time. Now I have to figure out how to get my money back.. Update: I went in person. Language barrier is still strong but I could point to the menu. Food was pretty good, but service suffers a bit. read more

So i ordered tacos from this place on sept,10,2021 around 11 pm. Came home open it up and noticed that there was a roach on my taco, not inside but on top of my taco. I've ordered from this place before and nothing like this has ever happened. By far the worst experience i've ever had at any place. Also i don't think i was charged the accurate price but idk. read more

I was craving Mexican and I am so glad I came here. The el pastor tacos are the best, we ordered 2 orders. You get 3 for $7. It's on a soft tortilla, filled with meat and pineapples, topped with cilantro. They give you limes and radishes on the side. The 3 hot sauce bottles are all spicy, but good. We ordered carnitas tacos, but they were too dry for me. I also got the beef nachos, and it was pretty big for $9. They piled the freshly fried tortilla chips with beef, lettuce, cheese, and sour cream. Definitely get the horchata or Jamaica juice. read more

Taco House - Beef nachos - Mexican Near Me - New Brunswick, New Jersey

Customer service was amazing , very nice aesthetic with the decorations. Unfortunately my tacos weren't all that great ... the Asada was dry , the lime had no juice and the red sauce was beyond spicy to eat. The torta de chorizo was good just wayyy too much queso when we asked to only a little. It was a good experience , won't be going back again. read more

Another strong entry in the authentic Mexican food scene of New Brunswick. To the reviewer who questioned if this is "yuppie college kid Mexican" that's got to be the biggest misread I've ever seen. How anyone could come to that conclusion baffles me. The place: Very small (5 tables) on a section of French St. which isn't so great (bar across the street, liquor store round the corner plus car traffic gets heavy). Little to no English for staff, something to keep in mind for phone orders. I saw some complaints about orders done through Yelp and I'm quite surprised that they do online orders at all. Places like this are serving the local immigrant population so adjust your expectations. Also, help them out and use cash. The food: Menu shows they are much more of a taqueria than a full restaurant. Emphasis on Mexican appetizer/snack foods. The tacos themselves are good and they have more varieties of fillings than is common (marinated pig skin, pig ears or beef brains). So if you want to broaden your taco horizons this place will be for you. You can mix and match tacos but I'm not sure if you can on all. At $3 each they are on the more expensive end of the spectrum, but they deliver. Two interesting notes. They do not provide the seemingly universal free chips and salsa. I kind of like they aren't conceding to the American expectation of free chips and salsa (my understanding is that is not done in Mexico), even though other authentic restaurants like their's all do. Second thing is the name on the menu: "El Taconazo" which translates to "the heel" or "kick" or "heel stamping" but not to "taco house" which is typically called a "taqueria." If anyone can explain the name to me I'd be grateful. All and all, a good taco place to get a quick bite. read more

When Tacoria closes or you just want some authentic Mexican style tacos.... this is the place. Came here with a friend on a Wednesday, craving some tacos because I didn't get my fix on Tuesday... I ordered the most Amazing cabeza (beef head) and lengua (tongue) tacos... If your craving some late night this is definitely the spot.... quick friendly service... atmosphere is good enough to eat in, Neighborhood is a little sketch but it's okay. Probably would recommend eating there because the tacos are made fresh to order. There's a few other items on the menu, but I'll be back to follow up with more soon enough. read more

Went here for lunch today, absolutely fabulous. Super cheap, super fresh. The ladies working were so nice. I ordered 2 carnitas and 2 bistec. The bistec was a little fatty however nice. The carnitas were to die for! I would definitely go back and try them out. I got a side of guacamole and salsa verde. The salsa verde is a must, nice a spicy! I would go without the guacamole, 1$ extra and premade. All in all, I'll be back read more

I had eaten in the store and the food was okay, the first sandwich I ordered was okay. I decided to take some to go because there were no more restaurants open at the time. When I got home I went to sit down and eat my sandwich, I opened the aluminum foil and all I can smell was something burnt. I quickly noticed that they had burn A-little of the top of my bun but when I flit it, it was completely burnt. I also noticed the breaded Chicken was burnt but still raw. The bread coding was burnt but the Chicken was fully raw. read more

GOOOD FOOOD! Review on delivery only. It was the best delivery experience I have ever had. I ordered a nachos and a bunch of tacos. Chorizo was made to perfection and beef tongue was tasty as well. Al pastor(?) Was truly amazing and was the best amongst the three in my opinion. Service was pretty quick (~35 mins from order to delivery) and the staff was nice. Pricewise it was well worth the money keeping in mind how big and generous servings are specially generous over the meat. It was a good experience which I plan to continue having... read more

Parking can be tricky though the meters in front of the store are free after 6 pm. I had 2 al pastor and 1 lengua: meats were well-seasoned with a generous amount, the hot sauce actually spicy, and the tortilla fresh. Service was fast and tap water came with a piece of lime. The space is clean and the fuchsia colored wall looks eye catching. read more

I stop into the Hospital next store every quarter and I was looking for an easy quick place to have Mexican food. The seating area is plain, could use an update, but why am I there? Good food, this is the place for an easy quick lunch. I like the burrito with chorizo & chicken. They roll the burrito then heat up the flower tortilla on the grill. Don't forget the hot sauce, they make 2 styles and both are great. I like the green extra spicy one. Check it out for quick good food I will have to try the tacos in the Taco House next time. read more

Totally awesome tacos. Open for breakfast! Two bucks a pop and big and delicious. I highly recommend this place. Very authentic

Nachos were very good. I have to admit error for not doing my research on the deep fried pork skin. I assumed they would come crunchy akin to cracklings but the taco was wet and flimsy. I'm coming to imagine this is the sort of place where you know exactly what you like, want and order exactly that every time. read more

This place seems seriously legit. On a Sunday afternoon, they are offering both indoor and outdoor dining with a total of 6 filled tables. They were pretty busy. We were so excited to try some authentic Mexican food but I have a few reservations. The two women cooking the food had their face masks pulled down under their chins and one of them went into an employee only area while still wearing the same gloves she was using to prep food. How is this safe for the customers that you serve? With an ongoing pandemic, proper infection control is so important and what I saw made me really uncomfortable. Also, I don't think indoor dining is allowed as of yet. We took the food home and reheated it before eating. We ordered the beef tacos, chorizo tacos and nachos. Beef was a bit dry which could've been due to us heating it, we really liked the chorizo and the nachos were also good but could've used better chips. These tasted stale. We also got their horchata and tamarind drinks which were on the money. I would definitely get these again. I would be willing to try the food again too and check out other menu items but probably not until their practices are safer or until the pandemic is over which could be a long long time from now. I'll update my review when that happens. read more

This was by far the worst DELIVERY Experience. Granted it was a yelp issue and they didn't receive my order when I placed it. I called and they put me on "hold" aka they hung up on me. Called back a couple times thinking it was an honest mistake. After the forth call and no answer I called from a different number and they answered on the second ring. At that point I explained why I was calling. They told me they didn't get my order which I said thats odd cause I have all the confirmation. After a few back and forth's I told them ok, now that I have you on the phone can I place my order now. They said sure. I read it to them four times. Even re read individual items when he asked if he heard right. After him doing that five times on a five item order I asked are you joking? He then hung up on me again. At that point I called one more time and told them I was coming and I wanted my refund. I went to the restaurant and walked in and was greeted by one of the cooks who tried to intimidate me with his size. Needless to say I was not intimidated. I showed them all the info and they continued to deny giving me my refund since they never got anything from yelp. I told them yelp will give them everything and it's clearly an issue with their system. The owner at this point said that she doesn't receive yelp payments till the end of the month and that's why she's not refunding me. The best they can do is make me my order. I said whatever just to get the situation over with. While making my order I managed to fix their system and notify yelp myself. Shortly after yelp was on the phone with them providing PROPER CUSTOMER CARE. Yelp apologized to me, they did not. This is also not even half of the rudeness I dealt with in this ordeal. I just wanted it over. Long story short Taco house management do not care about you as the customer. All they care about is getting your money. The food is standard. Nothing special. read more

Looking for a great taco place and this is it. We ordered carne asada tacos and they were great. We will definitely come back !!

I have been a fan for this place, the tacos are good but the nacho is simply outta this world! Ask for guac!

Called earlier to ask a question about the menu then said I would call back. I called exactly 3 minutes later and they did not pick up. I waited a couple minutes and then called two more times with no answer. The fourth time I called the phone was picked up and hung up. I'm perplexed and I couldn't even order my food. read more

Stopped in for lunch and I'm so glad I stopped here! I have been searching very long and hard for a authentic taco place, with delicious food that's cooked and seasoned well. This place is by far the best taco place I have ever been to in my entire life across all states that I've traveled to! First off amazing chicken and carnitas tacos! Thank you for giving me meat filled tacos and not blobs of fat that is not edible. The meat was seasoned to perfection and cooked to perfection. Not try just right. The rice had the best flavor hands down that I've tasted. Fluffy and packed with flavor! The horchata was really good too! I really wish this place was by me!!! Don't change ever!!!!!!! And for those who say expensive, I rather pay this for quality food that taste good then throw away my money on garbage! read more

Surprised! I stopped in here on a whim, because I was in the neighborhood and hungry. The small, intimate place delivered excellent taste and service.
