You have to be pretty dense to pack food and a drink that will explode when the delivery driver is on a bike.. like really how inept can a person be? So was the food good? Probably not but looking at the reviews I may have dodged a bullet.. what a waste of time and my lunch break!

Ordered from Uber Eats and decided to eat my feelings post work: ordered cheese empanadas, Shrimp tacos, and Birria tacos.Empanadas were soaked in oil and had the worst after taste. All you could taste was the reused oil.The Shrimp tacos were okay. Not bad not great, but okay. Needed some extra toppings or something though.But the birria tacos were the WORST. Ordered the supéreme toppings and they just had no flavor, except the overwhelming taste of either nutmeg or cinnamon. too much roast beef and needed salt.Ate the shrimp tacos, half an empanada, and half a birria taco. Threw the rest out.IDK who is eating at this place and afterwords claiming this is the best Mexican food. Just baffling.

Ordered from UberEats and got the Al pastor burrito, fish taco, steak taco, and spicy pork taco. Everything was flavorless and bland and definitely one of the worst meals I’ve had.

Ordered this on Uber Eats and hate to say it but it was gross. The salsa is like tomato juice water/mush with giant chunks of onions. The birria tacos were super bland. The tortilla chips were just awful. They almost tasted like chemicals. The sauces— green sauce, red sauce, and their “guacamole” were all just not good. I honestly could have made better food myself. This is a chain and it just isn’t very good. If you want great birria tacos then go to Birria Landia. Also, as you’ll notice, they reply to all of their reviews (even a lady who complained about BUGS in her food and a guy about finding a nickel in his guacamole) with a “thank you for your feedback” paragraph and zero effort to rectify the situation.

I don’t ever write reviews, but this restaurant has never disappointed me and deserves so much love! Honestly not sure why the ratings aren’t higher. So far I have only ordered tacos, but they were so good that I have done so multiple times-and I’m quite a taco obsessed fiend so that’s saying a lot :).In a taco, when there are so few ingredients and toppings beside cilantro and onion to distract you, the quality of the protein really matters. And here, every single protein has been succulent, tender and delicious. I don’t crave guacamole or sauces like I typically do when I’m given bland and chewy meat at other places, these are that good as is. BUT the red and green sauces are necessary to just amp everything up to 11, they have so much complex flavor that I could drink them like soup lol. And usually restaurants disappoint me by giving me red sauces that are barely spicy or even TOO spicy and lacking flavor aside from that; you will not have that problem here! Your nose and eyes may water if you’re weak like me but in my opinion these sauces are the perfect middle between plain savory and super spicy.There’s also such an abundance of meat in each taco that just two are enough for a whole meal!! Doesn’t mean I won’t make myself sick eating 3 more tacos than I should though ;). The cherry on top is that the ladies working here are always so sweet and pleasant, and the interior is so welcoming, bright, and homely. It’s a good location and prices are great too, just go here already!!!!

Such a great restaurant to eat at. I ordered the nachos and they were absolutely the best experience of eating nachos I've had in a VERY long time. They were artes in a way where you get a bite of EVERYTHING whenever you got a chip. I am someone who doesn't eat like crazy so the portion was perfect for me, and I'm grateful cause I hate when places give you an enormous portion and it just end up going to waste. I also want to mention the making service. Im sure it's a family operated business and the girl that attended me was very kind and calm. I enjoyed the cleanliness and homelike feeling of the restaurant. I've seen a few negative reviews for this place and do not agree with them at all. I think this location is amazing and I would most definitely recommend people to give this place a try. There were also SO MANY orders being made to deliver and I'm glad to see this in business.

I really enjoyed the chorizo and steak nachos! The torta was huge and delicious ?
Tried several things, not too impressed. Today all items we ordered were fatty and toppings (lettuce, lime, radishes) seemed old. After a few tries, will not return.

My family & I ordered pick-up, went in, paid cash, and only realized when we arrived home with the receipt (that they left on the bag by accident- they normally take it off and put it in a pile; pickup orders pay without seeing the receipt ahead of time, a mistake NO ONE should make when ordering from here, we have just been going here for so long we trusted them) they charged us an automatic 10% tip on a pickup, it was an extra $5.00 on an already expensive bill. When we called to inquire about this, we were told they have been adding automatic pickup tips for MONTHS. I have no issue tipping on delivery or when dining in, but this is just outrageous. To the owner- this is an ILLEGAL practice in NY. You do not have it posted where customers can see that you are adding automatic tips to pickups; it is not on your website, on your menus, posted in the restaurant, and when you order pickup online, there is no automatic tip. This is plain sneaky behavior. My family and I have ordered from here, dined in, and picked up food many times over the years; we have recommended your establishment to many people. To see this sneaky behavior is just uncalled for and taking clear advantage of trusting customers. To other customers- beware, check your receipts!
