“ One of my favorite taquerias in Newark. The food is delicious, authentic, and fresh. Their al pastor is one of my favorites. Try their burritos and tacos, you won't be disappointed! I have seen they offer menudo & birria, but I've never tried them from here. I'm sure they're great. I will continue coming back! ”

“ This review is for Saturday morning. Our first time and it was delicious. We had menudo- so so good! and huevos rancheros- delicious! The chips complimented the salsa, which I loved- perfect spice. We had coffee and honestly that made my morning, I had two cups. No servers but our cashier was so nice, she checked up on us with a smile. Everything tasted fresh, and authentic. Compliments to the cook. The taqueria was clean and nicely decorated. The music was traditional. They have a digital menu and we could appreciate their menu items. Total $43 total- which included 3 carne asap to go (great tacos) what a deal. Will return. Highly recommend. ”
