Great value for the money. Bursting with flavor. Tortillas are made fresh and come out piping hot. Would highly recommend to anyone seeking authentic central Mexico food. Salsa bar has all the important ingredients.
Friendly and very good food. Fast service. Top 3 in morris county. :-)
Los mejores tacos del mundo todos The best tacos in the world, I've tried all flavors there. Taco bar w alllll the condiments. Good prices. Good natural juices and always great service. Favorite place in Dover
We came here for a quick lunch with some friends. Very cute hidden gem! The tacos are very authentic & flavorful. We ordered guacamole with chips, tacos al pastor, my husband got birria tacos & our friends got carnitas. Everything came out delicious. There is a small bar where your food comes out with sauces, jalapenos, cilantro, onions etc so you can add-on what you like. A lot of locals come here & it was packed on a saturday at 2 . Highly recommend!
Delicious authentic tacos, though on the pricier side. Around $15 for 3 tacos... You pick your meat, and the toppings (salsa, onions, cilantro, tomatoes etc..) are available for you to pick on the side. Radishes are also available for a nice palette cleanser. We got the al pastor and lengue tacos. This al pastor did not come with pineapples, but the meat was juicy regardless. The lengue tacos were on the drier side but still had a nice chew and were flavored ok. Not the best tacos I've had (I'd say Cali does them better and cheaper), but still a good option in northwest Jersey!
