Food kicks ass
The food and services are good. But they only accept cash. No credit card but on the door said they take visa/ master card.
A Mexican Vacation in Passaic! Skip the chain restaurants and fast food. You get real Mexican food prepared just for you by people who actually care. The small business, dedicated staff take great care of you. The servers are knowledgeable and will not serve you anything too spicy unless you ask for it. They also have beer and cocktails available.
Food is very good, enjoyed the meal and will return. This is my 5th visit there this year. Very festive inside and the employees are great. The food has a American swag to it, so it is not exactly authentic, but this suits most Americans.
Tacos was very salty 🧂
And cemita so simple unflavored
My friend took me here to celebrate my highschool graduation 2 years ago. The restaurant was beautiful and colourful, the servers were friendly and charismatic and the food was great. Could not have asked for a better experience.

This place used to be very good, went today and didn’t know a tip was mandatory. On top of that we got charged for TO GO containers !!!!! First time I’ve ever seen any restaurant charge that. If we didn’t finish the food why should we pay extra 8-10$ to take it home? Won’t ever be going back. Getting greedy. Better of going to the one in hope avenue the cemitas are way better.
Very delicious food, very friendly service and very good atmosphere!! Highly recommended

First time coming here and was recommended to try this place. Restaurant had great appearance but food wise horrible. DISSAPOINTED! The cemitas bread was stale & the meat was cold with no papalote or frijol. Returned back & ordered something else. When the owner (Leticia) approched us i figured she would apologize but instead approached us in a hostile attitude & demanded us to pay for what we returned & said because it’s the first time she wouldn’t charge us. DO NOT COME HERE YOULL WASTE MONEY & TIME.

Very bad service, they took a long time with the food, not to mention the drinks, we ordered margaritas that did not have ice and we ordered them frozen without flavor, it seemed like thin water, they never come to check if you need anything, we had to get up to ask for the bill, they gave us burnt tortillas and The rice was hard and cold, it looked like it was days old and they still charge the tip.
To be honest, the food is delicious, but the prices are sky-high. They are not clear either when placing orders. We ordered 2 non-alcoholic drinks and in the end they charged us 40 USD and it turns out that they give you the drink in They have one glass to sell and they don't tell you, I felt cheated because I wasn't interested in buying those clay jugs ?. Total consumed for 3 main courses $394 usd, not even in the Mahathan Restaurants have I paid that. The truth without words.
I liked the service, the waitresses attentive and attentive to what the Client needs. I would repeat again

The food was bad, the pozole cold and salty, the prices are different from what they charge. Plus the Mandatory 20% of tips? I thought giving tips was optional since they don't do anything additional. They're just doing their jobs as waiters, but a mandatory $30 tip? Even if I work hard I won't earn that in 1 hour. I used to go very often. But no more.
