If you want to be treated horribly and ripped off, come here! I ordered $70 worth of food - 4 different meals. They gave me one small container of sauce. When I asked for more, they said I would have to pay, or give up the COMPLIMENTARY chips and salsa for more sauce. (The small mini sauces). So it doesn’t matter how many meals you order, if you are anything like my family and enjoy your meal with sauce, be prepared to share one or sacrifice another part of the meal! Absolutely cheap horrible customer service, and for the small portions, it’s not at all worth it. Go elsewhere.

El Familiar is a slam dunk every time. The best authentic Mexican food around! I like to get their tacos Mexican style. My recommendations would be the chorizo taco and the chicken mole burrito!

Frequent often , food is very good my only problem is the other day when we were there the overwhelming smell of cleaning product , Fabuloso specifically, which they must be using no on the floor and or tables was so overwhelming I couldn’t enjoy my dinner. Please be aware of customers that have allergies to very strong smells. Thank you

What a wonderful place!The food was incredible. With large portions.The staff, I think is family. At least they seem that way. The young man who took our empty plates was so polite and helpful.

Every visit to El Familiar is a highlight of my trips! The welcoming atmosphere cultivated by both the staff and owners is truly heartwarming. They go above and beyond, making you feel like part of their family. If you know, you know.

Best Spanish around! I'm from North Jersey and whether we're in a mood for good Spanish food this is literally the only good place around! Bandeja Paisa is the BEST!!!
