“Tried Best Tacos for Taco Tuesday and I’ll definitely be back. All the tacos had really good flavor, but the carne asada and al pastor were my favorites.

Also, if you like spicy salsa, their red sauce is no joke. Probably the spiciest red salsa I’ve had from any Mexican restaurant.

For Taco Tuesday, this is probably going to be my go-to spot when I want authentic street-style mini tacos. Good flavor, good tacos, and definitely worth trying.“

“We were visiting from out of town and found this gem! Food is made fresh for you! Nothing was precooked. Therefore, it takes a bit longer to get served. However, once it come out it’s hot and delicious! We scarfed out food down and didn’t take pictures. We had the steak pambazo and the Quesabirria player. I can’t emphasize the freshness but f their food. The tortillas for the quesabirria are made in house and they were nice and cheesy! So good!“

Tamales Jalisco Mexican • $
9507 Central Avenue #D, Montclair

“The Tamales Plate: Easily the highlight of the meal. The chicken tamales are large and generous with the meat. The masa is perfectly moist, not dry at all, and the rice and beans are delicious.

The Flavors: Both the Chilaquiles (Rojos and Verdes) and the breakfast burrito tasted really good.

Food Presentation: The chilaquiles came in a bowl, but they would be much better served on a flat plate. I also prefer when the chips are tossed and mixed with the sauce, rather than just having the sauce poured on top. Also, the breakfast burrito looks quite different from its picture on the menu.

Ambiance: The indoor seating area looks like it still needs some finishing touches and decor updates. Luckily, they have a nice outdoor seating area which is a great option.

Value: The prices are on the higher side. The agua fresca cup feels a bit small for the price, and a family of five should expect to spend over $100 here.

Overall, the kitchen knows what it is doing because the flavors are great. With a few tweaks to the presentation and the indoor setup, this place will be amazing!“

“Had no expectations, but tried this place out with a basic bean rice and cheese burrito. Beans with creamy, had plenty of cheese, and the rice was cooked perfectly. Not sure if the tortillas are made in house, but it tasted like it. If you want some good Mexican food on the go or to hang out for a beat, definitely try Ramiro's.“

“Overall I'll still give them a good review but the old man who was there 8/8/26 1:30am seems like he hates his job. He seems upset that anyone is there. His facial expressions and the way he talks to you. I've dealt with him before and it's always the same. Luckily it's rare for him to be at the register, I think he's a cook. I'm not positive on that though. Other than him other cashiers are great especially the buff dud.“
