Taco Empreso (Located in Edison Plaza Strip Mall)…read more775 Route 1 South Edison, NJ 08817 Butter Chicken Taco Asada Taco Birria Taco El Pastor Taco When I first entered this halal taquiera located in the Edison Plaza strip mall, I was filled with dismay. I instantly realized how the interior looks identical to Los Tacos No. 1. The Coca-Cola insignia is displayed to the left and right of the restaurant name. The menu is painted on a large wall. Even the employees wear white uniforms and white chef hats. Originally, I was confined this restaurant was going to be a cheap knock-off. Ordering is done through an in-store kiosk. Although I was skeptical using the computer screen, I found it easy to navigate and was able to fulfill my lunch order without requesting any assistance. The meal took a few minutes to arrive, but that was because the servers were freshly making it on the spot. I started to get a good feeling as I witnessed the chefs in action. As soon as I took my first bite, I realized I was mistaken about my initial impression. All tacos are prepared with fresh ingredients with a smoky flavor. The shells are soft and doughy. Juices from the protein slightly compromised the appearance, but the taste is fantastic! There is a salsa bar offering complimentary toppings for your tacos. Limes, pickled onions, and three flavors of salsa are an option. The seating is kind of tight, but it's meant to be eaten in a fast paced atmosphere. Overall, I didn't think I was going to have a great experience, but this location surpassed my expectations by a long shot. I was very impressed with Taco Empreso! #tacoempreso #tacoempresoedisonnj #tacos #halaltacos

I've been here a couple months ago, and it's wild to see how much it has grown in popularity. The last few times we have visited, it has been packed or overflowing with customers. A good sign, if you ask me! The tacos are uniquely curated and not your typical selection. I had a Smashburger taco, because I love ground beef, and also a delicious shrimp taco. Any one you get, it is tasty, fresh, prepared right in front of your eyes, and my best of all- so colorful! There is a salsa/sauce/lime bar, which is constantly refilled and has plenty of to-go cups and boxes. I cannot recommend the Agua de Horchata drink enough. When I see Horchata on a menu, I automatically gravitate towards it. Here, the drink is not too thick or overwhelming in flavor. It is nicely balanced with the cinnamon and milky tastes. If you get the 16 oz, the drink comes in a cute square shaped cup. Love this taco joint and coming by every so often to see what is new on the menu and how well they are doing. There is plenty of parking in the plaza lot. If you are in the area, I highly recommend. Definitely worth a shot!

The al pastor was also dry, but better than the steak. They did give a lot of meat but it was just overcooked. Have not, and will not, be going back anytime soon.

I ordered Dos Equis lager and the Jose's special pulled beef enchiladas with a side of Jose's rice and black beans The enchiladas were on point and were a flavor explosion in my mouth. I liked the Jose's rice The black beans needed something to elevate the flavors so I mixed them with the rice and it was a great combination. Serving size is good and great for the price. The service was good as the staff was very polite and the food was out very quick.

I tried the birria, and it is a must have. I asked for the torta (they have tacos, nachos, and other options as well). And oh boy it was great. I also tried the tacos al pastor with pineapple. It is the perfect mix of sweet and salty. The choritacos were great but the game changer for me was definitely the birria. They have juices both natural and freshly mixed and they have other drinks that looked very appetizing. I decided to go with the passion fruit and have no regrets. I'm already planning my next visit!

It is really delicious and they offer a generous sized cup for $9. Highly recommend trying the Horchata! For my meal, I selected three hardshell tacos - one with ground beef, one with spicy chorizo, and one with al pastor. The ground beef one was most flavorful and my favorite, followed by the spicy chorizo. Onions and parsley are included on top as garnish, but pico de gallo, guacamole, and other toppings are an extra $1 each.There is also plenty of seating and extremely friendly employees working there. If you're looking for a Mexican food joint that gets down to business without any extra frills, this is your spot. I've seen other more elevated locations that offer a bit more with each meal, but this spot sticks true to its name as a deli and gets the job done. Forgot to snap some photos because we were so hungry. Ha! Wish I got a picture of the Horchata to show how massive it was.

My chicken breast was good (everything else on the plate was bland), and my daughter's green enchiladas were ok. My husband's birria quesadilla was very good according to him and my daughter. The service was awful! The waitress handed us iPad menus and never said to order on the tablet or if she was going to come back for our order. The menu is not extensive, just fyi. You can only get taco platters with all the same taco meat, not a variety. The enchiladas are also only 1 way for all three on the plate. Whatever...I can deal with that, if the food was great. It's not. The black beans were room temp with no seasoning, the corn on the cob - no salt, no butter. The guac was also bland. We were never offered water refills and she never asked us if we wanted a drink until after our meals came. We didn't, but it was said with a huge sigh and eye-roll. As a side note, this was a grown woman waiting on us, like an abuela, not a teenager. She never came back to our table, until she saw another waitress come over and bring us boxes for leftovers - that we had to go to the bar to ask for. Oh, important point - the restaurant was not busy, so she was not in the weeds. The restaurant could be an amazing spot if the service was better and they seasoned the food. It is NOT worth the money.
