Food is top quality. I go for the tacos. The service can improve. The ladies working the cashier can sometimes have an attitude or seem too busy to even notice you. Not everyone but this particular short older lady is. Maybe she's just set in her ways and that's just her. Either way, she can be nicer.

It’s ok if you’re in a hurry. Each breakfast taco (huevo a la mexicana) is $3.24 plus taxes.

I ordered online the taco Deluxe clearly says served w beans and rice when I got it was a tortilla with meat.I thought I had made a mistake when to the website menu and that's what it says I called just to make sure and they act like they didn't know what I was talking about. 🙃

We were incredibly disappointed with our recent visit to El Tiempo on Washington. After waiting 15 minutes without seeing our server, Nora, a busboy (whose name we sadly didn’t catch) kindly stepped in to take our drink orders. Throughout the evening, Nora only came to our table twice: once to take our order and once to deliver our last round of drinks. Her attitude was unfriendly and made us feel uncomfortable.
Despite Nora’s lack of attentiveness, the busboy was wonderful and far more attentive than our actual server. When it came time to pay, Nora visibly saw our tip amount and, shockingly, asked, “Why not the other amount?” We were taken aback by her suggestion for a higher tip, considering the poor service. When we requested the manager, she hesitated, and we ultimately had to ask the busboy again for assistance; he promptly had the manager visit our table.
Overall, we had hoped to try something new by coming here instead of our usual Goode Co., but unfortunately, this experience was far from what we expected.

I ate at this location last Friday and was TOTALLY DISAPPOINTED with the QUALITY of the food. I ordered a beef/chicken fajita plate, with 1 side of shrimp, which came to my table with 2 strips of beef and 3 small strips of chicken and 1 overly seasoned shrimp, which I was forced to wipe off some of the cayene before I could eat it. The black beans came in a small tin bowl and was cold. Mid way through my meal I realized that I was missing the rice and when I asked the waiter about the rice he acted as if rice was a side dish. However, when I received the yellow rice, I was not impressed. This restaurant is not CHEAP and I expected much better than what I received. I STRONGLY encourage Mrs. Ninfa Laurenzo's son and grandson to suspend their expansion into more locations and focus on the QUALITY of the food at their existing restaurants, OTHERWISE, they may find themselves in the same over expansion demise of the original Ninfa's.

It’s mind blowing that not many in this place speak English. That’s fine but at the very least I’d expect signs above the food with what the ingredients are…. Not everyone can eat pork. None of the employees know what’s in anything. It’s kind of embarrassing. I just can’t wrap my head how in the world is this place busy. I got my food ice cold.. empanadas should be hot. It only had cheese inside. It was the only thing the lady knew didn’t have pork. I just don’t understand how people can actually order anything with out a menu or words to describe what the food is…. I’m very upset this place is across the street from me and I can’t enjoy it because nobody knows anything and nobody can speak English besides the front desk people and it’s not always like that. If you speak Spanish I recommend but if you don’t I don’t know what to tell you good luck.
I always come n buy tacos or menudo for me n my coworkers ? we love this place ??
