Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"We were a group of 15 and they were so accommodating. Took extra care to make sure we were constantly being checked in with and had all we needed. Our group got a mix of plates and everyone raved and was so pleased. Favorite was the salsa to go with the molcajete and tacos. Only for the spicy lovers. We all felt like it was very true to mexican food. And not american mexican food."
"Staff spoke Spanish, had a struggle ordering but used my HS Spanish to make two orders. Got steak sopes and the bistek a la Mexicana which was a steak and peppers dish and comes with rice and beans. Really big portions, and great amount of toppings such as avocado, cheese, tomato and lettuce. Authentic Mexican food! Called and ordered. Waited 20minutes for the food to be ready to go! $30 meal for 2 and couldn’t finish either."
"Clearly, everything was really delicious. The mango milkshake was really good as well. The sopes were huge! Definitely could be shared for two people. There are a lot of cleaning smells and other aromas that I couldn’t quite place which made it hard to fully enjoy the food, which is why it’s four stars. The staff was nice and the presentation of the restaurant in general is beautiful."
"I love this place! The food is delicious they give you huge portions and you can taste how fresh the ingredients are. They first start you off with chips and 4 different kinds of salsa. Then comes your entre, be sure to come hungry! The coffee is really good not too sweet or bitter. They also offer Jarritos and classic Mexican sodas. The prices are reasonable too, for two people we spent around 22$ including tip. My new go to place!"
"Place is excellent, not sure why the reviews are so low maybe its due to the busyness on the weekends. Server was very friendly, we ordered a steak huarache and three sopes. Steak was tender not overcooked it came sizzling still followed by the chips and sauces had excellent flavor felt like a mom home cooked meal. What I reccomend people do if they would like to come in and enjoy a meal come on down during the day time/evening time Monday - Thursday eat it fresh and enjoy a Jarritos, horchata or jugo natural (orange, tamarind, agua de Jamaica) and it will not disappoint. Definitely an awesome place with good food. No beer here fyi."
"Delicious tacos that bring a little heat! Will definitely be coming back."
"It's such a beautiful restaurant. The decor will leave you speechless. I found this place through a family member. I'm originally from The bronx and I've rarely visit or go to New Jersey. So this was my first time. The food is delicious. It's so hard to find a good Mexican restaurant that serves fresh delicious steak . I'll be back for seconds. Oh and if you love a good cup of coffee you should definitely try there coffee. I ordered the steak with green sauce chalupas. They're like tacos but the tortilla is fried. It adds some crunchiness and extra flavor."
"Wow. If you're in the mood for Mexican Food then you have to come to El Tio Taco. Authentic! The food was awesome along with the friendly service."
