Mexican Restaurants near Hillside

“Ahh taco bell. THE BEST late night stop. I was driving home from Rutgers and was SO hungry and taco bell always knows how to make me happy. Nacho fries are back and with it my spirit! I downed those like it was my last meal. But for real, does not feel great the next day, but taco bell late night is a life saver! Only complaint is they make you order, pay, and drive around again to get your order even though no one else is in line… weird. But it was still good!“

“Oh my god the place is amazing! The servants are so kind and the food oh my god I can't even tell you how good it is. And the servants they are always so kind. The place is so beautiful and lots of places to take the most wonderful photos. You should go.“

“Tried their dessert - love chips - amazing!“

“A great new addition to the Livingston Circle. Everything that I have tried off the menu was fantastic. Especially the quesadillas, fries and the dessert options. They even have a mobile app for ordering and rewards. Highly recommended if you love great Mexican food.“

“Food is super fresh and the owner is so nice and you can tell he takes pride in his food. Never had baliada before Mi Sabor and definitely a fan!“

“happy hour! The food was excellent — you can tell it’s made by someone with authentic Spanish roots. Plenty of parking and the drinks were solid. The guacamole was a bit too salty for our taste, but overall we enjoyed it. For a family of four to eat enough during happy hour, expect to spend around $120, which was the only downside for us. Still a very good experience!“

“We're local business owners in Springfield, NJ and just discovered Tierra Del Sol as a wonderful spot for lunch!

Friendly greeting when we walked in, quick table service and the food is fresh and very flavorful! We each had Quesadilla's de Carne Asada (Steak) - and the serving sizes were big, we each only ate half and too the rest home.

We will most definitely be back soon!“

“Delicious with excellent service.“

“Nae was great she was professional, and went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. Her attention to detail and genuine care for customers truly stood out. Highly recommend asking for Nae if you want outstanding service. Give that girl a raise!“

“The food was fantastic. The burrito, nachos, and kids meal have great value for your money. Along with the kids meal came chips. Although very crispy and fresh, they had a little bit too much salt. Apart from that, everything was fantastic from the service to the place it self. Highly recommend.“

“Drinks and music is great“

“First time ordering today and I wasn't disappointed at all! Pastor Tacos -- Delish! meat was juicy and full of flavor and the pineapple also fresh steak quesadilla hit the mark as well the steak was nicely seasoned and plentiful. Look forward to stopping by soon and enjoy a meal in store. Also, delivery time was great and the driver very nice he helped me sing happy Birthday to my neighbor lol All the Best to You All at Figuritas“

“Authentic, delicious Mexican food. We came for lunch and both had tacos which were incredible. Felt like I was in Mexico City. Very good in house chips and salsa verde. Their hot sauce is incredible too. Our waitress was super friendly and put up with my very poor Spanish lol. I will definitely be back.“

“🤩⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🤩 Recommend you all to stop by and eat their Jus’antastic tacos“

“I live in the area and love trying out local restaurants, Taquerua La Casita did not disappoint. The atmosphere was great, wel lit and busy. Its a small place, but small places tend to be masters of their craft. I got two orders of tacos, tacos al pastor and tacos de costilla (recommended by the employee working he counter). Both were great, fresh and bold flavors. The pastor came with a slice of pineapple on top which was a nice touch. I really enjoyed the Verde sauce that came with the order. I will definitely return in the future. Thanks for the awesome food. I want to try every item on the menu 🙂“

“Ordered through GrubHub and my order was stolen. The hostess worked with me for the next 30 minutes trying to correct this mistake and even comped one of my items after they offered for one of their own drivers to deliver the remade order. Will definitely order with them again.“

“10 out of 10!!! Absolutely delicious! We had the chicken, steak, and chorizo tacos. Nachos. Mexican street corn and Churros. Everything was made to perfection! I’ll definitely be recommending!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟“

“I went to the up town one yesterday for happy hour. Emilio was great welcome to me right away. Let me know about the happy hour specials. Then I spoke with the owner. I congratulated her on the success of her business. Her husband and her opened this restaurant, and the one on 412 Broadway after many years of working at Hendricksons as a cook. It’s nice to see hard hard-working people become successful n keep their business local. Very inviting and friendly place. Great margaritas. Great ppl:) I also had the chorizo queso. It was delicious. But everything on the menu us. All in all had a nice experience:)“

“Always our favorite Mexican food spot in HarrisonCounty!“

“Ate here on Sunday. Nice ambience inside, food was exceptional. Not the usual take on Mexican food. Everything was very fresh & obviously cooked for the order (not in advance ) Nachos & Guacamole are great starters. Just be patient because since everything is cooked on order, you have to wait a little more than usual. It's not bad service, it's worth waiting. Also another "nice touch", the menus are tablets, If you want Mexican you won't go wrong here.“

“I grew up in Texas and enjoyed this authentic beef taco bowl for a casual and affordable dinner in Newark. The owner and staff clearly put their hearts into each ingredient in the bowl which comes together as a Tex-Mex festival of flavors.

Kid-friendliness: Saw a mother and daughter there. Lots of teenagers were eating there as well.“

“Was our first time. The gentleman ran out to help my boyfriend in a wheelchair to get in. The food was delicious. We definitely will be back and will tell some friends“

“The best best restaurant!!! El mejor muy delicioso 😋 y esquí siga comida la recomiendo mucho Soy una persona muy exigente cuando se trata de comida mexicana por que se del sabor ♥️pero este lugar me encantó mucho mucho ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️saludos desde East Hampton New York 🗽 🇲🇽“

“It’s funny that some of the reviews here complain about servers not speaking English...it’s an actual authentic Mexican restaurant what do you expect? The menus are in both English and Spanish and have descriptions if you are not familiar with Mexican food. I love this place and you really can’t beat the prices. The food is great and I always wind up taking some home (maybe because I fill up on all the chips and salsa they give before the meal).“

“Last night I had the pleasure of dining at Maize Cocina & Cocktails in Westfield, NJ — and let me tell you, if you love Mexican food and crave an elevated dining experience, this is the spot! 🌮✨

Everything was incredible, but my favorites were the maize croquettes, crabmeat tostadas, and the whole fish adobo — absolutely delicious. They’ve also added some exciting new dishes like the Tamarind Sticky Duck Breast and Pork Chop Amarillo that you’ll definitely want to try.

If you’re planning a visit, go between Thursday and Sunday — those are their action days! Trust me, if you’re looking for a great vibe and even better food, Maize is the place to be. 🍹🔥“

“We eat here almost every day. The food is always made to order so it does take a few miinutes. The food is delicious, I have never had anything I did not enjoy. Mr. C is always making sure we are happy with what he has prepared for us. Sometimes he will add his own little touch once he gets to know you and what you like. He will make great suggestions if you are not sure what you would like. The girls at the counter are great! This is a small hidden gem!“

“Sooo good! Better than chipotle and qdoba. It is around the same price as the other restraints mentioned. Very flavorful meat. Honestly, I was very surprised of how good this was. They gave good portions as well. The only negative thing is that it took them so long to make the order and we were like the only people there… but other than that I loved it. I wish they open a location closer to me!!“
