“Taqueria Tlaxcalli is absolutely delicious!“

“The place is very well put together. the food was very good and the service was great. we stopped in for a quick drink and stayed over an hour and had lunch.“

“Taco Express on Jerome Ave is a solid spot. I really like the food...everything I’ve had has been flavorful, fresh, and satisfying. It’s one of those places that’s easy to go back to when you want something quick and good. Definitely a nice local taco spot worth checking out.“

“The loaded fries are amazing reminds me of my home town California has some of the best Mexican foods and this make me feel so close to home foreal… I think I order these at least twice a week eventually I’m going try something else because I know it’s good well I have tried their churros and those was really good“

“The food is good and has been very consistent. The tortillas taste homemade and the salsa is great. I’ve ordered 3 times and I haven’t had any issues other than maybe forgetting my salsa one time. I really enjoyed the battered fried shrimp tacos a lot. Pricey but worth trying and giving a chance.“

“exelente comida y ambiente, muy recomendado.“

“The music is always on point. Come on a sunday if you are into Karoke, it is a vibe.“

“Second time ordering take-out from here. They’re really friendly and have great service, but it’s not going to become my next favorite unfortunately. Food was okay, ordered cheese birria tacos which I thought would be cheese crusted rather than just some shredded cheese tossed inside.
The birria consome was great though! I think it was missing some salt but when combined with the tacos (as it should be) it was a perfect combination.

The place is small though, not a lot of seating space and the space that is available is a bit tight, so that ruins a bit of the atmosphere for me. But, for takeout nearby, I think it’s in the right neighborhood and deserves its round of applause.“

“Kaur & Sunita were very kind in greeting me & my friend. They both were patient and gentle in preparing our meals. My veggie quesadilla was delicious and made exactly as I asked.
Veggie Quesdilla: sprinkled with light cheese, bell peppers, lettuce, cilantro, tomatoes, red cabbage, spinach, & tofu.

I'll be back from New Jersey.“

“If you are looking for authentic Mexican food, look no further. This small family-owned shop is putting out some of the best tacos I’ve had in this area. Everything was fresh and delicious. It’s a tiny space with a big personality, and the service from the family is top-notch. A must-visit!“

“Amazingly delicious food and equally fantastic staff!! We ate there earlier today and were blown away! They even made something that we requested that wasn't on the menu and it was better than we've ever had! The atmosphere was fun and welcoming too! We will definitely be going here regularly and suggest everybody else does too. I promise you won't regret it!!“

“Great mexican restaurant, dinner for four last night and everyone was raving!!“

“Every service I've experienced at Hellbender has been remarkable. Their approach to hospitality is warm and thoughtful while each dish holds a place for authenticity and playfulness. Perfect for special occasions with a group of friends or mid week dinner by yourself and everything in between.“

“Muy rico 😋 todo las bebidas son muy exotica’s 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻“

“Guac Time Mexican Grill provides an excellent modern twist on classic Mexican fast-food staples with a completely halal menu. The build-your-own bowls and burritos are packed with fresh ingredients, crisp toppings, and very generous portions of meat. The guacamole is remarkably smooth and flavorful, making it a highly recommended addition to whatever you order. The store layout is clean, bright, and casual, offering a highly satisfying option for a quick and wholesome dinner.“

“We got the homemade guacamole, along with carnitas & pastor tacos. Everything was absolutely delicious! Would definitely eat and recommend this place for tacos.
The only thing I would suggest for them to do, is maybe put a curtain over the eye sore in the room.“

“Absolutely a gem! The service by Katherine was amazing! So sweet! The food was muy delicioso! Fresh guacamole and shrimp tacos! Strawberry margaritas and Micheladas! Exceptionally clean! Will be back when I visit NY again! May be back before I head home to MD once my daughter gets home tomorrow!

feliz acción de gracias
Happy Thanksgiving!“

“This is the best Mexican restaurant, I used to order via DoorDash a couple of years now but nothing beats the service in person. The atmosphere is great, the staff is kind. I didn't get the lady at the counters name but she made sure my daughter enjoyed her birthday. I can't thank her enough. GO TO EL CHILTEPIN IN PERSON!!!! ♥️“

“awesome menu items great service“

“Our favorite go to spot. Clean, convenient and some of the friendliest staff!! Kid friendly. Night we went the karaoke performer even sang a song with kids!!! Great food and drinks! Had the birria quesadilla! Margaritas are amazing! Just go!“

“First time here, got to try the carne asada tacos and carnitas chalupas, they were great! Juicy and tender. Our only issue was when we arrived there wasn’t any music playing for a while and out of nowhere loud music started playing which threw us off as we were sitting by a speaker. Will probably do take out moving forward because these tacos are definitely seeing me again.“

“Súper BUENOS estoy de vacaciones y birrialandia estaba en mi lista 100 % recomendado“

“Great food and service. Highly recommend“

“Best Nachos In Town!! Always friendly service.“

“You had experience. Service was nice. The ambience was very pleasant. Cheeseburger, fajitas and tacos are all pretty good. Chicken salad like lettuce with some stretch and chicken dropped on it. I'll definitely go back. Might skip the salad“

“I have no real complaints. Our first server I guess went home early but the Host with curly hair and light eyes and the tall gentleman made sure everything was very well taken care of.. The viral Soft Serve Mango/ Strawberry margarita was on point and so was the guac... Happy Cinco De Mayo..“

“I usually come here after dancing with some friends who happen to be Mexican, and they enjoyed it as much as I do. It's a solid choice for a fast food stop. They're open until 3am, at least on weekends, and the staff always maintains a pleasant attitude and provides cordial service. If you're in the area, hungry, and want something quick, tasty, and reasonably priced, I'd recommend this place.“

“❤ My husband and I love Curbside in South Hempstead. Their crunchwraps are big enough to share. Our favorite is the Cowboy Crunchwrap with extra sauteed onions. I could eat only this for the rest of my life, provided, of course, we have sour cream!“

“Good food, nice fun ambiance and good Sangria!“

“Great food and hospitality! Definitely try a Gringa Quesadilla and the Esquites!!!“

“Excellent meal and wait staff“

“We had the best time celebrating a special birthday at Ondas by Fuego
From the moment we walked in, everything just felt right. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, perfect for a family night out. The kids absolutely loved the food (which is always a win), and every dish that came to the table was delicious and beautifully presented.
What really made the experience stand out was the service—attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. It’s not always easy to find a place that checks all the boxes for both adults and kids, but this one truly delivered.
Such a memorable night, and definitely a spot we’ll be coming back to!“

“Súper recomendado, comida riquísima, buena atención y muy limpio 👌🏻 💯 de calificación“

“I’ve ordered delivery from them twice now & both times those carne asada tacos were chefs kiss! 💋 they fill those tacos up (and double layer tortillas too) and add this delicious guacamole sauce/salsa… 10/10 and will be ordering more. $4.50 per taco is worth it here, period. You get your moneys worth.“

“A gentleman was outside the truck assisting with ordering and payment. We ordered quesadillas (middle picture) & a tlacoyo (1st picture). He let us know they have different cook times and asked if we wanted everything served together or as it was ready. Food was great! Not too heavy or greasy. The quesadillas are handmade tortillas that are thin, light but pliable and filled with a small amount of cheese and your choice of filling. They are topped with crispy, refreshing lettuce and crema with both green or red salsa on the side. The tlacoyo was a thicker tortilla with melted cheese and filling inside and again topped with refreshing lettuce and crema and salsa on the side. We sat on the side where stools are provided. Great food and friendly service.“

“Great place to eat and enjoy your tacos“

“Just had the best tasting Steak and frozen Frozen Margarita . The staff is always going out of their way for you. Food always great never had a bad meal ever and reasonable priced.“

“Came for the breakfast burrito and now I want to come back and try everything else. I was craving a breakfast burrito and this was one of the few places that had them on the menu. Really good flavor and the chorizo was not super fatty. The chile de árbol sauce is chef’s kiss! It was also a nice touch to have some café de olla (coffee sweetened with raw sugar molasses and cinnamon), which brought back some good memories. Service was top notch. The decoration is fun too with some Lucha Libre artwork. The tamarind sweet at the end is fun. They have some traditional Guerrero food that would be worth coming back for.“
