First time trying this place. Everything was really good, very fresh and well prepared and seasoned. I highly recommend the chili relleno, yum! Be prepared to wait for your food though. They are not quick! But worth waiting for.

Large portions for the price. I thought they would be a little expensive, but when I got my food, the portions were quite large.

I don’t recommend you come here. The food is salty and didn’t seem fresh, the price was too high for the quality of the food. I ordered tostadas and they were not crunchy as I’m used to, also the servers claimed to be “too busy” to make the drinks requested and asked me to just get a soda! Please, if you’re looking for a good family place with authentic food this isn’t it!!

This is a local restaurant in South River New Jersey the local is very small, the restaurant looks like it it needs a little bit of tidy up and cleaning. Too many bags and too many things laying around. The service and the food actually is really good they’re really nice people. Their portions are big therefore can be for two or three people depending on how much you can eat. Parking is in the street can be challenged a Time.
