“this place is truly great. we ordered a few things and ended up taking most of it home because the soup portions were nice and hefty. everything was flavorful and made when ordered. cannot recommend this place enough. as soon as our soups came out we were shocked at how big the bowls were and how aromatic the soups were. flavors and service were on point. hidden gem 100%“
“I love the food here. The el pastor tacos are spectacular. I really love any place where you can get horchata. I highly recommend this restaurant.Service is fast, and the people at the front desk are friendly. I have no complaints.Hopefully when the pandemic is over we can go back and actually eat in the dining room.“
“I tried three of their signature dishes: the Volcano Taco, Steak Quesadilla, and Beef Nachos. The star of the show - the Volcano Taco. This fiery creation boasted a crunchy red shell, which immediately piqued my interest. The filling was a delightful combo of seasoned ground beef, shredded lettuce, zesty cheese, and a spicy lava sauce that promised a flavor explosion. The Steak Quesadilla was grilled to the perfect and I was met with the mouthwatering aroma of seasoned steak. The Beef Nachos were a delightful treat as well.I must say about the service was great and very prompt.“

“I love going here. The food is always fresh and delicious. The staff is patient and helpful with my order. They help with suggestions for sauces. I always leave satisfied ..I love their burritos and their guacamole is my favorite around.“
“So glad to have come across this place!! I have been here twice so far and gotten take out once. The staff are super friendly and greet everyone as you walk in, but the aromas of the food greet you as you walk up to the building. They have a breakfast menu in addition to the lunch/dinner menu and I have happily eaten from both. The portions are generous and for what you get, the prices are amazing. Everything I have had so far tasted amazing, and the food is very fresh. The amount of avocado on every order was fantastic and there is not an upcharge for it. The only complaint I can muster up is that the location is a little small, and since the food is so good, there may be a little wait if you come at a busy time. But that is really the only thing, and the food is definitely worth the wait. I can say that for takeout, the food traveled well and was still a great temperature when I got home. Will be back a bunch of times, and will try to remember to take photos next time!“
“First time visit, I have to say this is now my favorite place to eat in rahway. Variety of tacos stuffed generously.Tasty. Salsa also very good served with chips. The cubano sandwich with steak, ham, chorizo, chicken, beans LTO on a roll was fantastic and filling served with skinny seasoned fries. Fajitas mixta was seasoned well and very tasty. Not a hint of pretension surrounds this place. A place to eat good food at a very fair price“
“Run don't walk to La Hacienda Restaurant.It's a small place, but big on flavor and excellent service.Complimentary fresh made chips with 4 different salsas were brought out as we were greeted by our sever. We started with Guacamole con Tostones, the guacamole was creamy and delicious Tostones crispy and still soft in the center. Presentation was awesome, see photos. We also shared a flaky beef empanada that was simple but so good.For dinner I had Beef Birria Tacos and my wife ordered a Beef Birria Bowl with rice and beans. Both of these were to die for. Excellent flavor and generous portions.I wanted to try the tres leches that looked so moist in the counter window but I didn't save any room.We're already planning our next trip back to try the other delicious choices on their menu, and I'm going to try and save room for dessert.“
“The atmosphere is beautiful and the decor was lovely. The food was delicious. I ordered the red snapper and my friend ordered the steak. The steak was relatively small I would say that’s the only negative my friend had to say. The snapper was flavorful. We ordered the guacamole as the appetizer which was delicious. For dessert we had the handmade ice cream hibiscus raspberry, mango and Maria cookie all were very good. We also ordered a cocktail each and they were tasty as well. I ordered a cappuccino towards the end of the meal and no complaints there. I would definitely recommend for a casual lunch or dinner. Will be coming back for sure :)Parking: There is a parking lot towards the back past the restaurant and the restaurant will validate your ticket once your done“
“Ordered via a food delivery service close enough to closing time to wonder if I'd regret wasting my money ?but was pleasantly (and thankfully) surprised!Instead of end of the night lack luster food, my flautas were crispy, street corn was ???, chicken tacos were perfect and guac was plentiful (as opposed to the condiment-sized container often used) !Y'all, I was so impressed that I called them today to tell them that I appreciated the quality of the food! I ride past this humble, unassuming establishment all the time not knowing the gem that it is. Will DEFINITELY be ordering again!“
