This is crazy! I got a burrito for $13 and a pinch of sour cream and salsa on the side . The burrito just had rice and chicken in it and it was so bland. The salsa taste like water. And they put the lettuce, tomatoes and cheese in the box on the side of the burrito not inside of it. A waste of my time and money!!!!!!!!! Do better. Season ya food!!!!!

Beware if you are a vegetarian. They don’t pay attention and take care in food preparation. We had a piece of chicken on the plate in spite of saying number of times.

We recently dined at Taste of Mexico and tried the chicken fajitas. The chicken was well seasoned and flavorful, and the rice and beans were a great addition to the overall meal. However, I found the portion of chicken to be small, which was a bit underwhelming. Additionally, the vegetables, which are meant to be a side, ended up taking over the plate. While the overall taste was good, a better balance between the chicken and vegetables would have made this a more enjoyable meal. In addition to the chicken fajitas, we ordered the carne enchiladas, which were served along a bed of rice, beans, and a simple green salad. The grilled pork in the enchiladas was marinated well and juicy. The carne complimented the sautéed tomatoes, onions, and jalepeños tenderly filled inside the enchiladas. The carne enchiladas was a well-sized dish and was quite delectable. Now onto the star of the meal... The Tres Leches Cake. The sponge-like cake, soaked in the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and cream, was a symphony of richness and delight to our taste buds. Despite the prevalence of milk, the dish never felt heavy and continued to be light and luscious till the very last bite.

Vegetarian options: Lots of great vegetarian options. Black/pinto beans, rice, guacamole, vegetable platters, vegetable enchiladas.

Parking: Lots of parking behind(free), paid street parking on the main downtown street and, paid parking garage situated behind the Princeton public Library

Kid-friendliness: Great quaint spot, friendly for kids of all ages

Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is primarily flat ground with no steps. There is a slight slope which the restaurant is located on, however this is very slight, but just a FYI!

Food/desserts (chicken enchiladas, shrimp tacos, tres leches cake, and flan) were very good, and hard to beat the prices. Really enjoyed the horchata as well. They just need more people working the front - only a single person handling seating, serving, and take out orders.

Very decent quality of food! Friendly staff! It is an excellent hidden place at the back of Main Street—a good place to relax and dine.

It’s so good! My favorite restaurant in the whole world! Their service was awesome and I’ve came so many times! I love their food especially their cheese enchiladas! I recommend coming here because the vibe is like you’re on an island. You should definitely try their food, and they are awesome people! If you’re looking for a Mexican restaurant this is the place!

A hidden gem (its location is at the back of 180 Nassau Street building, so it took some time to find). Great price! Loved the fish tacos I ordered. The fish was succulent, and the tortilla were really nice too. I liked that they doubled the tortilla so that the taco does not break apart due to the weight of the fillings. Very well thought out!
