This place has delicious, authentic and full of flavor food. The best in Toms River, so far. Im a native to a heavy Mexican population aside from being one. Love this little joint!

West coast in the east coast, food had great authentic flavor and same goes for the salsas. Had an Agua de Jamaica and it was real flor de Jamaica, not the fake powder kind. TV was playing music videos, too loud for the size of space but , didn't bother me, I like Corridos. Def will come back to this place. They also make fresh pan dulce.

Consistently good. The Cemitas and tortas are so good! Thinly breaded chicken and pickled jalapeños. And the frys are so good! Very crispy and seasoned well never get soggy. Everything I tried from here has been so great over the years

We got this Mexican food from DoorDash. It was a little expensive through that company but the food was very good and would like to try it again and pick it up myself. We had a couple of ground beef tacos and a fish taco.

My friend and I both enjoyed our dishes. I had the garlic shrimp dish with rice and beans which came with soft tortillas. It was a decent portion with fresh ingredients. The guacamole and chips were also very delicious. It is a casual dining setting inside, not a big space and staff were friendly. First time there and will be back.

Great way to lose business. I called to place an order. They answer the phone and say hold on. Then hang up. When i tried calling back (3 times), no one answered the phone.

Food was very good, fresh, and authentic. Service was very good. The young lady at the counter was very friendly, sweet and super attentive. Tortillas with three dips to taste while you wait. They have some baked goods you can take out as well. My husband ordered the chimechamgas and I had the chalupas. A few reasons we didn't give it five stars: the food wasn't hot enough and the chimechamga could have been fried a bit more. Atmosphere so so but clean. Bathroom was very clean. This seems like a family owned business. If you want authentic Mexican in a low key atmosphere, give this place a try.
