“This place is exceptional. The food is great. The atmosphere is fun, and the service is timely and always delivered with a smile. This is a family business made up of good decent hard working people. And the prices for the portions delivered are incredible. Can't wait to go back and get my fill!!!“

“I spent my last Saturday at this place with my friends. We did ordered lot of food and each and every item was fabulous in taste. Services we're very good staff are very polite and kind in nature. A day well worth. I would like to recommend you too!“

“The food was great the first time, to go, but when I sat down, it didn't remind me how great it was the first time. The food overall was good, but the guac wasn't fresh. If you know, you can spot the real difference when it's hand made or out of a packaging tube. I would recommend the tacos con carne con Todo. I wasn't too sure on what the pricing was, and I have been scammed for fees at other "authentic Latino places". But I ended up paying 25 ish with tip for 4 tacos and a small guac. I give it a 4.2/5 rating. Ohh and they have fresh drinks on hand that I will have to try next time.“

“The food is delicious, and the portions are huge! The service was fast and friendly. We will definitely be returning.“

“Excellent food and service! I recommend the burgers and dessert!!!!“

“I go here for lunch quite often and the drive thru is typically dead between 11-12pm so it’s an easy pickup. I’ve never had an issue here that stuck with me long enough to remember so therefore they get the job done adequately. Cantina bowl is A1.“

“Best and affordable vegan restaurant downtown.“

“Nacho Bae has a special place in our hearts. So much so that we come from around an hour away just for the food, atmosphere, and amazing service. Muhammad and Arwa gave us exceptional service and frequently came buy to ensure everything was ok. Their energy and willingness to help was great! The food was fresh and tasted much better than anywhere I have been to. The store atmosphere was great as well. Nice music and nice decor. I’ll be coming again to nacho bae and this is one of the top 5 restaurants I have been to all thanks to the food and arwa and Muhammad!“

“Went to restaurant with a fairly large group. The staff were very accommodating and nice to us. Each person got something different and it was all good!“

“We chose La Colina Mexican Cantina in Warren NJ to celebrate 3 birthdays on 4/5/25. We were a party of 12 & tried a few of the beautifully crafted cocktails that were out of this world and so tasty we had to order more. We began our feast with a couple of platters of Nachos El Gordo that were huge and absolutely delicious and went perfectly with the chosen wines, margaritas, and assorted cocktails our family ordered. The cocktails were of the beautiful quality that we've only seen on TV during cooking shows or restaurant series. The edible flowers and the smoke emitting drinks were amazing. We were served by a wonderfully friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive waitress. She was able to answer every question and had plenty of patience for our crowd who were amazed by the menu. Especially the "Smart" menus that detail each item at the flip of your finger. What an upscale & impressive touch that is. After we ordered our entrees we enjoyed more cocktails and had some time to talk and enjoy the unbelievable decor that seemed to have an endless amount of thought and class put into the decor of this authentic Cantina. The service was beyond excellent and our meals came out hot and enticing and as pleasing to the eyes as it was to our pallets. This was authentic delicious, beautiful meals that made the party seem like were were enjoying fantastic Cantina style food right in Mexico. I highly recommend the burritos, enchiladas, the Mexican Caesar salad, fajitas and I'm sure that rest of the menu has to be outstanding if everything the 12 of us had was that delicious. Besides the wonderful service, drinks, food and authentic atmosphere, topping the celebration off was when the owner came over to our table , introduced himself and made sure everything was as fabulous as possible. Believe me it was. Then the Head Chef came out and asked if everything up to our expectations to which we all agreed this place out did every single Mexican restaurant we've ever been to. I highly recommend La Colina in Warren NJ and I know you won't be disappointed in the food , atmosphere or the service. We surely will be back !!!!“

“Very tasty food and wonderful folks. Would definitely recommend to guys and ladies who cherish Mexican food.“

“We absolutely adore Mr. Cautus! Their food is simply delicious, and they make you feel like part of the family. We always bring our extended family along because there's plenty of space for everyone! We love trying all their specials—I think we’ve sampled just about everything on the menu! Our top picks are definitely the molcajete, shrimp a la diabla, and their amazing tacos. Overall, this place is fantastic, and I highly recommend it, especially for bigger gatherings. 🫶“

“Muy buen servicio, la comida con el mejor sabor en New Jersey.“

“We eat here once a week, faithfully. Actually because we have such a big order, we order it for delivery to Piscataway. I ate there twice in the restaurant and was HOOKED! The flavors are so DELICIOUS! We’ve have our favorite menu items and a nice variety. Hands down best place to eat!“

“Great food friendly tacos were awesome“

“Fun atmosphere and had the best "new" waitress, Lila!!“

“Ordered steak tacos, sides of rice n beans, and the Mexican corn. All of it was delicious. The steak was a bit chewy but everything was well seasoned. The tacos came with a few potatoes, jalapeño, sautéed onions, radish and the typical toppings of cilantro and onion.
The tortillas looked and tasted fresh/homemade. The green and red sides of sauce were tasty and had a kick.
The rice and beans were perfect little sides and the beans were really good. I prefer the beans honestly over other restaurants ive had.
The mexican corn was one long stick, typically its cut into pieces but I loved it and it was a great. Would order it all again but skip the rice - the beans tho, get the beans, lol.“

“Recommend: tilapia tacos*, salsa verde, campenchanosGood: tamales, barbacoa tacosOk: chicken flautas, arabes tacos, lengua (tongue) tacos, tripa tacos*Probably would have been a 3 star rating if we didn't like the tilapia tacos so much. They were definitely the favorite. The fish was tender and nicely seasoned.The seasoning and cook on other things were a little hit or miss. Barbacoa had great taste but too salty, arabes were dry, lengua was disappointingly dry and bland. The salsa verde was used liberally to save many of the tacos.The flautas were nice and crispy but the chicken inside was dry.The tripe had some crunchy bits that some people might like but I found them tough.The campenchanos in the flour tortilla were also a bit salty but I liked how soft the tortilla was.The tamales had nice texture, but the cheese stick inside was strange for me.“

“The tacos were amazing. Portions were generous and everything tasted authentic.“

“had dinner with friends tonight. the service and atmosphere were outstanding and the food was excellent. Oh and the tamales are the best. I'll be going back well done Carlos and staff.“

“Absolutely delicious. We ordered chicken tacos, el pastor tacos and birria tacos and all were amazing. The consome for the birria was full of flavor. I also enjoyed a delicious horchata which was not overly sweet, it was just right. I cant wait to come back and explore the menu some more.“

“My order was ready when I got to the restaurant. My meal was prepared exactly as ordered. The food was not hot(just warm). I had to put it in my microwave before eating it. The portion for my grilled chicken bowl was not as large as usual. Everything however, tasted good I will still be ordering from this restaurant again however I will place my order in the store instead of online.“

“I LOVE IT I BEEN THERE TWICE AND WE DON'T SPEAK SPANISH BUT WE WERE HELP AND THE WAITRESS REMEMBER US FROM THE LAST TIME. THE SHRIMP IS TO DIE FOR. WILL BE BACK“

“I had the steak burrito at the Piscataway location today and it did not disappoint. Excellent food and the nachos with Nutella are fire. They had so many fresh made salsa and bottled hot sauce to put on my burrito. I think I found my new Mexican spot. Can't wait to try more of the menu. Highly recommend. 10/10“

“We don’t order or dine out much, but we highly recommend this place. It’s a hidden gem that makes Mexican food with a very traditional approach. They also use fresh products. I can’t get enough of their Raja Tamales. The owner and staff are very friendly. Give it a try.“

“This one girl who I met was chill glad they have "great" waiter 10/10??The Alfredo was great. The people are pretty chill and and food has nice flavor and pretty good variety. I wanna say the wait time was great and price wasn't too much for a meal.“

“Super buenísimo lo recomiendo“

“The best nachos I’ve ever had in my life! Plus amazing tacos that don’t need to be covered half a pound of shredded cheddar to be delicious. This place is legit!“

“Their flavor is very good, they have a great Mexican flavor and their food options are varied. An excellent place to eat Mexican food.

Wheelchair accessibility: As it does not have steps, it is an excellent option for people who use wheelchairs since access is very easy and the staff is very friendly.“

“guys. .... GUYS. of COURSE we find this place one month before we move across the country. lived here for almost 7 years and never knew it was here. SOOOO good! fried rice ball??? what!? the grilled chicken is completely magical. the toppings and the sweet chili sauce is just.... I can't even. (Middletown DE location!)“

“Late night, this place served me despite that another down the street would not because I could not speak Spanish. I was just hungry. I came here, ordered tamales 🫔 & all I can say is " Estos tamales son muy deliciosos!!" Great hospitality, I felt very welcome & loved ❤️“

“I have been coming here since they opened. The team is so friendly and welcoming! Food is fresh and delicious! Love getting the bowls and quesadillas. Which they customize to my liking:)The way they prepare to the service altogether is what keeps me coming back! My favorite location by far!

Vegetarian options: Would like more vegetable options. Grilled zucchini, carrots…etc.“

“Great drinks great food highly recommend“

“Tacos tripa and carnitas were really delicious; tender tripa and tasty carnitas with just the right crunch. Pollo de Mole Oaxaqueno was fantastic. The chicken was super moist and tender and some of the best mole sauce I have ever had. Highly recommended- I will definitely be back!“

“Seemed like they only spoke Spanish, but Idk. Prices were fair, portion size was just right, food was fantastic. Served chips with salsa verde. The salsa was spicy in the best way. I got pollo el chipotle. It was perfect. Also got pupusas. Definitely authentic food made very well. So far my favorite Mexican place in New Jersey.“

“impeccable food and service and super cozy atmosphere“

“Pretty good- A lot like chipotle!“

“This is a very small place to eat and I usually order to pick up. What I can say is the food it’s authentic Mexican , so tasty and delicious , I’m not a big fan of spicy foods but this place use enough condiments on their meats , they use jalapeños but if you don’t want them, request not to put them on your food…overall food it’s delicious highly recommend“

“A no frill restaurant. We weren’t sure if the server was fluent with English. The service was adequate.We had a burrito bowel, one verde con pollo (chicken w green sauce) tamale, one mole con pollo (chicken with mole) tamale, and a chicken tostada. For drinks we had jarrito mandarine and tamarind piña.The burrito was standard. The verde con pollo was delicious and the tostada was generous and tasty. The mole sauce was more bitter than sweet; it’s different from most places. The tamarind piña was good too.

Wheelchair accessibility: It’s a small place with upstairs, no good for wheelchairs“

“Food is fresh and delicious with so many options to choose from. Chips and salsa are free with each meal ( you don’t have to pay for them), the staff is wonderful and the place is clean! Queso is a must!!“

“I just went but the attention of the ladies is very bad, they look at you in a bad way, I was standing there, other people were serving me except for me, so I told them if I was invisible, very bad customer service, the ladies are always angry, and twice as much as the sauce. It turns out “

“We ordered here from Door Dash and this was BY FAR the best Mexican we have had since we've lived within 10 miles from here. 👏🏼 Everything we had; mixed fajitas (steak and chicken), flautas, tamales, enchiladas, Oreo moose cake, and the Tres Leches cake... was outstanding, even through delivery! 100% recommend! Not to mention, they actually got out entire order correct, which is rare these days! Thank you!“

“Food is delicious and the people are awesome.“
