“Wow, great Tonalteca burrito! Service is friendly. We have been her two dozen times. Good happy hour and open for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

We will do takeout often but dinning in is always a pleasure - full bar.

GM, Juan, runs a great front and kitchen staff. Cannot say enough about how well run this restaurant is run - excellent food and service.

The bar is a good place to watch European, North, Central, and South American football (soccer).

By far the best Mexican we have had in the Wilmington - Newark area. We moved here from Southern California. I would compare it to the better Mexican restaurants in San Diego.“

“Beautiful night sitting outside but several dirty tables. However, the food and service, were hands down, fantastic! First visit and will go back! Started with the traditional guacomole made table side accompanied by a delicious margarita. Loved this dish! Tried the Dip Sampler with the warm chips ~ another pleasant surprise with so many flavors. Carnitas tacos were made with fresh ingredients and selected the flour tortilla instead of the corn tortilla. So good!! Mexican corn was ok. I will go back; frankly, can't wait to go back!“

“The food is excellent. Service is fast. Staff is friendly. We've eaten here a couple times, and always been impressed with the quality and flavor of their food. Highly recommended.“

“Ate here several times and have enjoyed the food. Though since opening....service at tables seems a bit slow here and there. Can't review alcoholic drinks because I don't drink.Recently I ordered pick up. Upon the return time they gave me... It took about a 20 minute wait for someone to come to the front to assist me with my pick up . They gave me a receipt but not my debit card back. Partly my fault to realize this.....but their fault too...this is the 2nd time that happened to me at pick up.. I think maybe a bell would work at the front desk to get someone's attention.i even stood at the bar for 5 minutes but no one came out.for awhile.. all in all I will probably return here be a use thw food I've had has been delicious each time....I recommend the shrimp quesidilas and I love their rice. However I think that their customer service really needs attention. They gave me a menu. I ordered pick up and they said 15 to 20 minutes....once arriving to pick up I waited about 15 to 20 minutes for someone e to come to the front to get the food.“

“Muy deliciosa y gran servicio!“

“Hole in the wall with a limited menu, however the tacos and tortas are great. Staff are friendly and service is quick. Mi gusta!“

“found this place about ten years ago from another friend. Loved it since then. Come here often. loved their fish taco and other tacos.

Mostly a take out place so the dinning area is very basic.

If you dine in, They don’t provide drinking water. You have to buy bottles water or other soft drinks“

“Great bowls and burritos! Well above the chain options. Food is fresh, delicious and place is clean and customer service friendly.“

“The food is amazing. I normally order for a business meeting or myself at times, and it is really good. The quality of the food is great, and there's a lot of food, which is a plus. We love it. I can not rate on the atmosphere or in-person service because we have not been in person, but overall, this is a 5-star experience for our business.“

“Muy buen lugar, la comida riquísima, el servicio muy bueno muy amables lo recomiendo.“

“I’ve been going here for about two years now and this is my of my favorite restaurants in the area. The Baja Shrimp tacos have this amazing sauce that makes the meal so so good. And the burros have such a good sauce too. I also love their fries, they’re so unique with them being so thin. The service here is also great. You get sat quickly, your server comes over fast, and your food comes out fast. The other night I had this server Dana who was so sweet and we had a nice conversation. It was great because I was dining alone so I was happy to have someone to talk to. And she recommended the pastelitos and they were delicious. Highly recommend!!!“

“I have enjoyed many products from Taste of Puebla over the years as they come to my local farmers market. Recently I tried 2 new products - the jalapeño poppers and the queso. Both are quite tasty. The poppers fried up well and are full of flavor. The queso is creamy and not too salty. it's great as a dip or on nachos. I highly recommend both!“

“Tacos el compa Juan 💯% recomendado un excelente servicio y la comida único y exclusivo sabor de mi Jalisco , tiene menú familiar para chicos y grandes las famosas quesibirias y el famoso consomé estilo Lagos de Moreno Jalisco todo riquísimo atendidos por la familia hermosillo amador , pasen a probar las delicias no se arrepentirá…..“

“love the hard shell tacos“

“love this tiny little gem, I come here mainly for the shrimp tacos and fajitas! their drinks are phenomenal, coconut mojito is a must try. pina coladas are excellente along with their margaritas as well, and very welcoming friendly staff!“

“We have ordered many times, but never eaten in. The food is amazing! We plan to eat in soon!“

“Very pleasant, great staff, excellent manager and the food is very good. They seem to maintain control over liquor sales in a part of Main Street at the intersection of Chapel which seems to be the worst in the City. The only thing seems to be the kitchen staff which seems very unfriendly. Have known the owner since day 1 when Gus asked me to help him put.“

“Great food and friendly atmosphere.“

“They claim on their poster to be the “king of the machete” so we got the machete. Did not disappoint. Good amount of food at a reasonable price point. Warm, flavorful, and came with enough salsas to satisfy.

This place is a super casual taco truck that you will miss if you are just driving by. It’s hard to just stumble upon. We were seeking it out, and it was not a very obvious spot. A few tables outside to eat if you’d like. Grab a beer at the nearby liquor store and enjoy authentic Mexican food at Taqueria Los Juarez.“

“4/13/25 Delicious tacos. Every. Time. However, they've been closed for a good while now. Hope they reopen soon!“

“El mejor restaurante de comida mexicana ,muy agradable ambiente ,el staff muy amigable lo recomiendo 💯 %“

“Everything is made from scratch. Amazing tortillas, refried beans and chicken burritos.“

“Absolute 🔥🔥🔥🔥. Best Mexican food in the state!“

“Best place to get tacos in the Newark area!! Affordable, delicious and comes out in good time. You get a good amount of food too. Always great service when I stop in.

Parking: Parking in front of the restaurant. Small parking lot but I haven’t had any issues getting a spot.“

“The best rice & homemade salsa 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜“

“Food was awesome. Me and my family are new to town and this place is one of the best.“

“We randomly stopped at the New Castle Farmers Market on a drive elsewhere and randomly happened upon Los Jarritos and thought it was some of the best authentic Mexican we’ve had on the east coast (don’t you love it when that happens?).

We split a burrito with pork and green sauce and a chicken tamal. The burrito was better than the tamal but we still thoroughly enjoyed both.

The pork in the burrito was exceptional - and the red and green hot sauces were an ideal complement.

Chips and salsa were also delicious - can’t tell if they were included or not but our total bill including a Mexican coke was less than $16.

Stopping at this flea market felt like a portal to another world for us out-of-towners, but we enjoyed the experience and would happily go back to Los Jarritos.“

“Toda la comida estaba muy rica. La verdad es que me fascinan los mariscos y nunca había encontrado un restaurante como este que los preparara tan deliciosos. También quiero destacar a la mesera Talía, que es muy buena atendiendo y muy atenta con los clientes.“
