Food isn’t that good. There’s better Mexican restaurants in Trenton than here. I ordered the flautas which barely had flavor and my husband got tacos de asada. The meat had no flavor. He also ordered papaya milkshake I think it was and he said it was the worst drink he’s ever ordered. I’ve eaten here before and the food was good but recently the food was very tasteless.
