Mexican Restaurants near Fort Lee

“Decades ago I used to frequent a bar in the Village called Burrito Loco. We always had the same server/bartender. I went there A LOT. Fast forward to about 10 years ago. I was living in Pal Park and I had a craving for Mexican food. I saw this place in Fort Lee and I decided to go there to eat. It's a moderately sized place with nice decorations. Festive, clean and well lit. I'm not sure what I ordered (probably enchiladas or a shrimp dish) but I do remember it being pretty good. During this visit our waiter (the owner) said to me "you used to go to Burrito Loco right? I remember you". What?! I could not believe it! It had been over 2 decades since I had been there! I guess I left a lasting impression back then and hadn't aged much (yellow don't mellow lol). To this day I am still shocked! Anyway, while living in Pal Park I ordered from here once in a while. Delivery always took forever! Currently I live back in my hometown of Englewood. There are a few great authentic Mexican places nearby (no, not Blue Moon. It's not "authentic", it's Tex-mex......I worked there for 4 years a long time ago). I was in the mood for a different Mexican place so I decided to order from here through GrubHub. The food came earlier than estimated and was still nice and hot. Portions were great, order was packed well, and they sent free chips and salsa (I hate when places don't send chips and salsa or bread for free when it's free when you dine in). Everything was very good, but fell short on a couple of things......the shredded beef in the tacos was surprisingly bland. I felt horrible for my man because it was the only thing he had (he doesn't eat rice & beans). My burrito Poblano was awesome BUT not nearly enough of that delicious mole sauce. They need to put some of that sauce inside the burrito too. Overall I will definitely order from here again. Maybe I'll even stop in to say hi to Arturo!“

“Love it ‘ Recommended 10/10 ‘ and im mexican and been too many times to different mexican food restaurant and this is now of The best Ones. Place is very calm and great Food !!!“

“Stopped in after driving by countless times. AMAZING! It’s my new go-to place for authentic Mexican food. They put other places to shame!“

“I came in pretty late, but an employee named Michael helped me with my order, and he honestly gave me one of the best experiences I’ve ever had with a franchise employee in the U.S.

I was ordering burrito bowls to eat the next day, so I felt really bad asking him to pack as much as possible separately. But he was incredibly thoughtful and took the time to make sure everything was packed carefully so that I could still enjoy a fresh meal the next day. He went above and beyond, asking about every little detail and making sure I had everything I needed.

Two of the proteins I wanted were unavailable, so I had to choose something else instead. I completely understood since I’m sure this happens from time to time, but Michael went out of his way to offer me chips or a drink to make up for it. I really appreciated that he cared about making sure I was satisfied.

I ordered through the mobile app, so unfortunately I didn’t have any cash with me to leave him a tip. I don’t think I’ve ever felt this bad about not being able to tip someone who deserved it so much.

Michael, I truly hope you have many happy days ahead, because you deserve the same kindness and thoughtfulness that you showed to your customer tonight. As long as Michael is working there, I’ll gladly keep coming back to the Chipotle in Linwood.

Thank you so much again, Michael! You really made my night.“

“This is really a great Taco Bell. The staff are always super friendly and happy to serve me my favorite, bean burritos with no onions! They don't mind the punishment that I am destined to dole out to my dwelling's commode, and they always offer a nice smile and friendly well wishes. I sure do love going to my Fort Lee Taco Bell!“
