Tacos are good, byob, entrees are worth the price, expect quality dishes, their dulce de leche churros are really good I recommend them.

I personally think that the tacos aren't that great. I wouldn't eat here again. I honestly felt bad because I hate wasting food but I didn't taste the authenticity they proclaimed they had in their dishes. My friend who was with me is an avid lover of Mexican food and pregnant was disappointed. The brisket tacos I couldn't eat it because it was mushy and my friends Chicken tacos were extremely burnt. I really wanted to love it since my co worker raved about it. Maybe I missed something. Honestly, the place around the corner is more authentic then this place and just better. I am giving it 3 stars because I had a shrimp taco was good and I really liked the crab tostadas. Plus, the girl was nice and gave good service.

The flavors of the food are incredible. Everything on the menu is put together with purposeful thought. Hardly any ingredients don't contribute to the overall flavor of the dish.
Everything on the menu is really great, with the exception of the lobster chorizo burrito, order anything else, and you'll walk out happy

I came to this place very excited to try the various taco options. I usually look at reviews, and make my decision then on whether I want to eat at a place or not, and what the recommendations are. Staff is super friendly!! I started off with the Guac, and it was ok. My significant other and I both ordered different tacos and waited on that. When we both took a bite, the disappointment flooded our faces and tastebuds. We gave another taco a chance, and it was just as bad!!!! The tacos I ordered- the pork belly, brisket, and chicken. They had 0 flavor, and just had a chewy taste. I honestly took another bite because I felt bad. My partner was eating the cheese more than the taco because he didn’t want to eat it, we were just both really hungry. I gave it 2 starts because the manager took everything off the bill, and we paid for the guac. That was nice of him to do. I personally wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. We grabbed pizza after.

Beautiful presentation and great shrimp tacos. Price is a little high compared to other “high-end” / fusion taco places in NJ. Also wish they were open more often and would allow takeout orders 30mins prior to close - feel like every time I go nowadays they’re closed or closing 😐

It's a very small place and BYOB so it's LOUD in here. I could not hear myself talk nor could I hear was the people across from me at the table were saying which honestly defeats the purpose of going out as a group. Overall, it's good food but I don't think it's worth the steep prices. Each small taco was $4 - $5 so essentially you're paying $20+ for a full meal.

Excellent authentic Mexican restaurant, a rare find in NJ. Loved the selection of tacos (brisket, pork belly, shrimp, etc.) and the octopus tostadas and guacamole were delicious as well! Highly recommended, great value

Pleasantly surprised. Most of the tacos we ordered were pretty solid and incentive. Standout may be the carnitas. Small place, can get loud. Churros were a nice desert. Byob.
