“horrible experience & poor food quality. we ordered $90 of food tonight. first when trying to order i asked about the birria tacos in their Facebook post. the woman who answered told me that they dont call them birria tacos, they are called barbacoa. they required us to order from uber eats even though they advertise in town delivery. so we did. the tortillas with green sauce is rico's version of a chalupa. it was inedible. we ordered a steak chimichanga - it was very fatty. the quesadilla was delivered in the form of a taco. somehow an order for nachos we put in uber eats, was deleted. when we called to let them know somethings were not correct in the order and we were really dissapointed we were told this is not taco bell. at the end of the unhelpful conversation about their poor service and food quality, the final response was, "You got everything you deserved." very unprofessional. all around a bad experience. the food was not good. we love to support local businesses but will not be back to Rico Taco Mex 2.“

“I’ve been about 5 times so far and LOVE Emelio’s! The food is fresh and delicious and the portions generous. Even their simple side salad is something special - delicious, light dressing. And the service is great, which is hard to come by these days. It’s clearly a family-run place where Everyone cares about the quality. Also impeccably clean!“

“Just finishing up our meal at this location and we have to say that the service and food were amazing. The server Joe and bartender Chris made it all worth it. They were attentive and accommodating. We sat at two separate tables with our teenage kids and everything was top notch. We own a business nearby and can’t wait to visit again!“

“Todo con un buen sazón y un buen servicio 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“Amazing authentic Mexican food. So delicious and the service is fantastic. Sometimes there is a wait but totally worth it.“

“so authentic and amazing service. such a hidden gem. Drinks were also great. The Twice as Nice was perfect for the summer!“

“Edit: Raising this from 1 to 4 star after speaking with the owner. It seems this was an outlier situation and they were very kind and receptive.

We came in at 8:20 PM (place closes at 9). The woman behind the counter seemed very detached and exhausted so I tried to be sympathetic. My burrito was a magnificent slop, not rolled properly at all. The soda fountain was out of CO2, so all the soda was flat - I made a comment but the employee didn't care even though she had charged me for the drink. The food wasn't bad but nothing remarkable or exciting.“

“Good tacos good flavor , deliciosos 😋“

“Went in for lunch today off a friends recommendation. Absolutely delicious. Love the complimentary chips and salsa. I also love that everything they serve has a veggie or seafood option as I don’t eat meat. My Chimichanga Camaronewas absolutely delicious. And so much food for such a great price. Clean. Nice people. Will definitely be back.“

“Just wanted to say thank you for the excellent food for our recent party. The guests were all commenting how delicious and well prepared the food was. It was also more food than we expected, and was very well packed for transport. We’ve enjoyed the experience of dining at Sofia’s, and now also the catered g experience.“

“Delicious food coupled with an enjoyable atmosphere! The staff is both pleasant and attentive! It has become a favorite of ours! 👍“

“Tacos here are the best in the area! They never disappoint and I’m always full with the 3 tacos that come in a plate! My favorite ones are the pastor tacos but the shrimp ones are really good too! The 3 leches cake and their aguas frescas are recommended too if you have a sweet tooth like me!“

Ufffffff - Pork chops I haven’t had in a while and can you believe D Cesiah Jimenez Burgos, owner made ‘tostones’ and of course the chips with guacamole 🥑. Sent my wife in Florida the pictures. Sorry babe. It was AMAZING! TACO STOP, THE PLACE TO GO WHEN YOU’RE ON THE GO! Recommended 100%+ You won’t regret it!“

“Los morcajetes los sopes la barbacoa todo es muy delicioso 😋“

“Great food,clean, fast service“

“The food is consistent. And DELICIOUS. I’ve tried many Mexican restaurants as it’s my favorite. And this is my go to. Slow-er on the service but that’s due to how incredibly busy they are with take out orders alone. It’s family owned and run. They are so nice and I can’t speak enough about how authentic the food is.“

“Small and family owned but i would be the first to invest in them ! They are always friendly and the prices are reasonable! I would highly recommend ordering their fresh tacos !

Vegetarian options: fresh vegetables used

Kid-friendliness: healthy ingredients“

“I am a Gringo, but kind of an expert with Mexican Food.

We ate here Sunday, 10/06 just before the finale of the N.J. Hispanic Film Fest conclusion at the The Vogel Theater.
The place is small, tight, but the food is good!
Food orders were chicken tacos (Tacos de Pollo) and chicken sopes (Sopes de Pollo). Both very good, filled with a lot of seasoned chicken.Tortillas are hand made.Salsa was good, as well as the side of Guacamole; more than enough for two people. Prices were fair. And the place is BYOB. I would recommend this for a quick, reasonably priced, authentic Mexican meal.
Bathroom was updated and fairly clean. Service was good!

This was our second time eating here.“

“We love Tino’s Mexican Kitchen. The food and ambience are amazing.“

“I was greeted by Tyleek as soon as I walked in the door, my order was a little annoying but he smiled made my meals exactly how I asked and also chatted with me while making the food. Nedene was at the register to ring me up and she was just as nice as Tyleek. The two of them are awesome and I hope they are working the next time I go back.“

“Outstanding food !!! My wife and I just visited and were very impressed . We started off with tostadas tingas which was really good. The chicken was well seasoned and topped with fresh guacamole, lettuce queso fresco and beans , all of which were full of flavor and excellent. For our tacos we had the carne asada tacos and the Baja fish tacos , I usually dont go for fried fish but I tried theirs and they were excellent so much so my wife who isn't really a big seafood eater swapped with me , the fish tacos were not greasy at all which was great and the batter was fluffy and the freshly made corn tortillas made both tacos perfection , the carne asada tacos were also amazing the steak was cooked perfectly and again a lot of great flavor . We originally weren't going to have dessert but we could not pass up flan and tiramasu tres leche , the flan im sure you've guessed by now was amazing perfectly creamy with a great syrup on top and the tres leches tiramasu was top notch . Since coming back from Texas I didn't think I'd find a place that can make great tacos but this place definitely does . Looking forward to my next visit . If you love tacos and Mexican food in general do give them a try , excellent staff , service and food!!!“

“Good place, variety in Mexican food, they deliver, located right on the main road, the rib tacos are excellent, the menu is very varied and the prices are totally affordable, there is no parking but you can leave your vehicle in front of this store. The attention of the staff is acceptable.“

“Mexican restaurant with an exquisite flavor in every dish you taste, very friendly service in a warm family atmosphere.

Mexican restaurant with an exquisite flavor in each dish that you taste, very friendly attention in a warm family atmosphere.“

“This is authentic Mexican food, very similar to the style in Mexico City, Mexico. I have really enjoyed all the foods I have ordered from here such as their soups, nachos, guacamole, tacos, quesadillas, burritos and signature kitchen dishes. They also offer a green and a red sauce that is spicy, but only elevates the flavor. I also appreciate the fresh limes, cilantro and onions they offer as well. I do like the langua burrito, which is served with rice and beans. Their tripa quesadillas and tacos are also delicious. You can find authentic beverages imported from Mexico in their drink fridge near the checkout counter too.“

“Disfrutamos de ricos platillos Mexicanos, Todo estuvo muy delicioso!“

“I want to give them one star for service because of the young lady at the register, but 5 stars for the man who served us and the lady who cleared the table. Those two were courteous and friendly. The young lady at the register was rude when giving me my change. I gave her a $20 bill, she returned $7.10 by throwing it on the counter. I was shocked. I told my coworker who was with me (he had already stepped away from the counter). His response was yes she was rude (to him too). He paid with a credit card, so she didn't have any money to throw at him, but had an attitude taking his order. I guess we were not the right color for her (we're both different races). If I'm in that area again, I don't think I would patronize this restaurant again. I'm still baffled because I was my usual cheery self when ordering. While my coworker was ordering, I was trying to figure out the menu and what to get. As he finished, I asked him what he got, he said a crunch (or something like that) and I decided I would get tacos. I asked a question about how many tacos because I thought it was the usual 3 that you get at other restaurants. When I was told, it's one taco, I said, oh okay, I would like 2 please. I asked for the sauce on the side. Is that the reason she was rude? I'm still confused by the rudeness. I watched her after that being nice to customers (of her race) who were seated (she was wiping tables then). Smh.“

“Stoped in today! Everything was delicious! Amanda at the bar was excellent!“

“Paul & Red ensured that this was truly a 5 star meal. They were quick and efficient getting food out to their customers and did it all with a smile on their faces. I love quesadillas and these were the best I’ve ever had! Well done, Estrella Azul!“

“This place is amazing. The food is full of flavor and is delicious. I definitely will be ordering from here again.

Dietary restrictions: Im gluten-free. On the menu and the when speaking with the women working there, told me what dishes they could make with corn tortilla.“

“The servers were great, helpful and a pleasure to work with Milina and Xavier in Staten Island on hylan blvd.“

“Ordered a cemita de carne asada with fries on the side, a Jarrito and a Squirt Soda, and it wasn't it.... total was $27.50. The bread wasn't your usual cemita bun, and meat was tasteless, and the cemita itself was pretty small for a cemita. The service was great, and the actual location was a whole vibe. I wouldn't order the same if returned. Maybe I'll do another menu item in the future... I have hope!“
