I am a Gringo, but kind of an expert with Mexican Food. And my Spouse is from Mexico.

We ate here today, Monday, 10/14/24, around 4:00 p.m., it was our first visit.
The food was awesome!
We each had Enchiladas De Mole Oaxaqueño con Pollo ( Chicken ) comes with rice and beans on the side.
The chicken was tender,the Mexican rice was fresh and excellent, the beans were good. The side of Salsa Picante ordered specially, was great on the rice. The most delicious item was the Mole Oaxaquena; dark, rich, and with some spice!!! Also had a side of Guacamole that was fresh and very good! Orchata was good.
The tortillas are handmade! Prices were very fair and the place is BYOB. I would recommend this establishment for an authentic Mexican meal!!! Most Especially…..the Mole Oaxaquena!!!
Atmosphere and Decor was okay. The servers were friendly and efficient!
As with most places, bathroom could have been a little cleaner.

Tried it last week based on all the great reviews…and specifically because I read they have a better burrito than a bunch of other spots that made a “list”.

Came back tonight (one week later) because it was so delicious and the staff was so gracious, kind, and fun!

Food is absolutely made with love! There is no doubt that they want to “Wow!” you with each dish. The type of food, that if you made it yourself, you’d be proud, and even look forward to serve to your friends!!!

Tonight we got the Torta Campesina, Chorizo nachos (again cause they were sooo good) and chorizo tacos. Last week we had the Milaneza De Rez Torta, Nachos and carnitas tacos. In 23 years of having the pleasure of eating Mexican tortas, these are in the top two, if not the best. The steak is tender, spiced and slightly smokey.

The chorizo (mild, maybe mildly spicy depending on your tolerance. And slightly Smokey) nachos are heavily topped with all the listed ingredients, including a very generous amount of chorizo. Easily two “portions” of toppings if you were at another establishment.

Both were take out orders.
We’re really looking forward to eating in next time to try some of the more traditional dishes. Excited to try the mole, pambazos, and many others that I’m forgetting the name of rn.

With so many options, the burrito is getting overlooked. Will definitely have to fix that.

Lastly, back to the staff…it’s rare that you are fortunate enough to encounter a crew like they have here! Top tier hospitality ???

Amazing experience, coming back from the beach to eat here was a great decision. The burritos were huge and packed full of meat, rice, and beans. The side veggies tasted fresh and flavorful as well, and the service was attentive and friendly. It's notable that these burritos costed less than a Chipotle bowl, and kept me full throughout the day while not making me feel bloated. The churros were also delicious, and the ice cream to dip them in was lovely.

We just ordered the chicken soup, and it lacked flavor. It was boiled water with couple slices of zucchini and couple slices carrot and a chicken leg, and no salt. Horrible food,

Another 5-star review for the food and people. I grew up in SoCal and spent time in Mexico and this is the first place I've found in New Jersey with that authentically 'rico' Mexican flavor. You've got to try the food, but please do take out so I can still get a seat!
