This was a very, very good authentic Dominican restaurant. The food is excellent, and the service is excellent. The staff will answer your questions about whatever is on the menu. I highly recommend this restaurant. Believe 45 minute drive for me to eat there and it was well worth!!

I really thought this place was very good. We had the chicken tacos and it wasn't smothered in sauce. Perfectly seasoned and accompanied with a light salsa. Counter service was quick. Definitely plan on returning.

We really wanted to like this place because we love Mexican and the reviews were good, but this place was gross. I got the Carnitas tacos. The meat was like mush. I'm not sure if it was old and had been sitting around or just very low quality meat. My Husband got the fish tacos which were so fishy he couldn't eat them. And they were overcooked - the breading was almost burned. Nothing tasted fresh. We won't be back. The restaurant itself was kind of dirty.

We come by here when we are in Cape May. They serve up good Mexican food and give you the option of authentic or American versions. Friendly fast service. I had some street style steak tacos and my girlfriend had a taco salad. Reasonably priced and very delicious!
Street tacos were pretty good, the flavor was classic. I wish they had queso (white American cheese), they only have orange nacho cheese. That was very disappointing. I liked the salsa verde, it was made well. The guac also had good flavor but needs more garlic.If you ask for anything extra they will charge $1 per item. This includes extra sour cream, extra lime, and probably anything extra you ask for. This was strange to me since we were eating in.They will be very upset if you are there for any time after closing. They want to leave (not just lock the doors, but leave) EXACTLY at 8. That is a very strange practice. Did they even mop? Probably not since we didn't see it happen. That's how you get rats and roaches.It was pretty much empty the whole time we were there so they need to learn how to run this place like it's a taqueria. The Chipotle business model isn't working for you guys. You don't need that much random stuff on the menu, either.

This place is fantastic! First off, the lady who took my order was wonderful. She was very professional and seemed like she had a good attitude. She explained the difference between regular tacos and street tacos, and what all comes on them, amazingly. Very pleasant getting my order taken from her. I got 4 barbacoa street tacos, a side of rice and beans and a drink. The food turned out to be excellent. Very tender meat. Very tasty. There was salsa on the side, which was decent, and 2 big pieces of lime enough for a little juice on each taco. Perfect. And the rice and beans were some of the best I’ve had, I loved the corn in the rice. My dad is from Mexico, so I’ve had my share of rice and beans. But to sum it up the food has to be above a 9 out of 10. Close to 10 out of 10 definitely. If I’m ever in town again I definitely won’t hesitate to go back. This establishment should be proud of itself. :) Keep up the great work, I forgot to mention every employee I encountered was great. Good job.Vegetarian options: I think they had a vegetarian taco option

Nestled along the picturesque New Jersey shore, Tacos by the Shore is a culinary haven that tantalizes taste buds with its authentic Mexican flavors. From the moment I stepped in, the vibrant and beachy ambiance transported me to a seaside paradise. The menu boasts an array of delectable tacos, each bursting with unique combinations of fresh ingredients and spices.During my visit, our waitress, Sofia, shone like a ray of sunshine. Her friendly demeanor and genuine passion for the cuisine added an extra layer of charm to the dining experience. Sofia guided us through the menu, and her recommendations were spot-on, showcasing the restaurant's finest offerings.The tacos arrived looking like works of art, and every bite was a fiesta of flavors. The freshness of the ingredients and the skillful preparation were evident in each mouthful. Tacos by the Shore is a true gem, and with Sofia's exceptional service, it's a place I can't wait to visit again.
