We shop in NJ on Saturdays. My daughter asked for Shrimp Tacos. I said ok google, and Las Chiangas popped up. It was near so we headed out. I cannot tell you how amazing this experience was. This place is very small with about 8 tables. We had 2 adults and 3 kids. My daughter asked if they had apple juice for the two kids. They did not... next thing you know, they ran next door and got two bottles for us. I was blown away. To say this place is welcoming would be an understatement. The woman who waited on us was so joyous. The menu is extensive. We ordered simple items. The food was delicious. Now this place is all about home cooking. There are seasoned ladies in the back cooking with a passion for their culture. What a great place. At the end, my daughter said that we would be coming back again, and indeed we will. Thank you so much for making our day so special.

Truly an authentic restaurant. The women behind the counter and in the kitchen is exactly what I would imagine a Mexican kitchen to be. A hidden gem in this little town. It’s been two days I’m still thinking of how good this place is.

FINALLY found a good Mexican restaurant in Monmouth County. It is a small quaint little place with FRESH home style food. The Tacos de Carnitas were delicious, Tostadas and Flautas as well, hot sauces are flavorful and spicy if you ask for it. They make an Artisanal Mole that is Phenomenal! The prices are reasonable, staff is friendly and portions are generous. Most importantly the food is delicious. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
P.S. Their website does not depict their food properly nor does it justice in my opinion.

Las Chilangas delivers an authentic Mexican dining experience that’s hard to beat. The price-to-quality ratio here is excellent—you get genuinely good food without breaking the bank.
What sets this place apart is the transparency. You can watch them prepare your meal right in front of you, and everything is made fresh when you order. There’s no reheating or shortcuts here; it’s real cooking happening in real time.
If you’re looking for typical Mexican food done right, this is the spot. Highly recommended.

I had ordered a nachos and a quesadilla. It had caramalized onions and soggy peppers and completely ruined the taste.

The tacos are amazing. Better than what I had at the Marriott in Cancun. The guacamole is fresh and flavorful, and the tres leches cake is perfectly moist and not too sweet. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion size.
I was buy to eat so I did not take photos. Luckily there are many photos here already.

Don't order delivery from this place!!
Ordered from their website which goes through door dash. Order never fullfilled because the restaurant was actually closed due to an issue at the restaurant. Restaurant has still not refunded me the money for food I never received. Manager said he would call me and send the refund but never follows through.
Amazing Mexican spot! The food was fresh, flavorful, and authentic — everything tasted homemade. The service was excellent too; everyone was friendly and attentive. The portions were generous, and the presentation was beautiful. Definitely one of my favorite places for Mexican food — highly recommend! 🇲🇽

Place has really good food, only issue is some people that answer the phone don’t speak English and the last two times I ordered they messed up my order. Ask for someone that speaks English if you don’t speak Spanish.

Food took a long time to come out. Overall the food was flavorful. I really liked the birria taco (not pictured). I would come back.
