Nice people. Good food and service. The mole is great! Delcious. Dependable. Wish they had a license is all.

This spot is a family-ran Mexican restaurant that has some very reasonably priced items! I found this local gem as a Rutgers student, but still worth the trip back whenever I have a hankering for Mexican in Highland Park 0 They also have lunch specials currently priced at $9.99 which is such a steal nowadays!

I had the tamales with pork rather than chicken. The sauce was sultry and with just the right amount of heat. The corn shell was perfect and had a wonderful texture. The meal included a small salad and beans and rice. The server was attentive and polite. I would recommend you give it a try!

Picked up food that I ordered on grub hub but the guy was so nice and pleasant and my shrimp burrito and horchata were delicious. I will be back.

The shrimp taco dinner was very good and the hot chocolate was also delicious. Though the restaurant was good, I was very disappointed that it was so cold inside, seems like the restaurant wasn't heated. It made us eat quickly and order hot beverages. It would have been a better experience if the place was heated, especially on a very cold night.

I'll get straight to the point. If the service was even decent, I probably would not complain about the fact that it was freezing in the restaurant. The food was at most bland, but the service was terrible. The place was not busy. One or two people came in to pick up food. I had to ask for something to drink several times. Napkins were not available, and the waitress was not friendly. I felt like I had to chase down the waitress for everything. Will not recommend this place to anyone.

Great find in Highland Park. Their Steak tacos are always delicious. Tender meat and fresh cilantro/onions. Their tacos Al pastor have a great sweet and spicy flavor combination. To top it off, their salsa verde and guacamole are on point! Reasonable prices, great service, and fresh food!
