We were looking for a great Mexican restaurant in Egg Harbor Township and Yelp led us to Tacos El…read moreTio. There were several Mexican restaurants to choose from and many had great Yelp reviews. After careful consideration .... Tacos El Tio was our pick and so glad it was! What a gem. And they have a full liquor license with tons of great drinks, especially if you're looking for a margarita! I opted for a nice Mandarin Jarritos soda -- i was just in the mood. They also have screens with sporting events on + an area with a full bar to hang. They have booths and areas for large tables too - so it's great for the whole family or a nice date night. My husband loved his steak fajitas and could not stop raving about them. He loved them! I ordered the chicken fajita enchilada..and it was ginormous - - you could make two meals out of it! Sorry I dont have more photos - - we were hungry! :) And I cannot forget our awesome server, Jose! He was a super nice server and loved that he was from Ecuador - - where we recently traveled! We will definitely be back. I just made your Mexican restaurant selection for Egg Harbor Township easy!

The TR Bowl is no joke, the protein portion alone is enough for several people to share (see photo). I've honestly never seen a restaurant be this generous with their protein. The Birria Egg Rolls with consomé are bursting with flavor. One bite and you'll immediately understand why they stand out and what I am talking about. The Birria Ramen arrives in an insanely large bowl and includes three tacos, making it an excellent value. Don't skip dessert!!! Do yourself a favor and get the churrios. They come out hot, crispy and dusted with sugar. The prices are spot on for what you are getting. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. I promise you will leave smiling!

We pulled up excited because the exterior alone sets the tone. Hand-painted sunflowers, colorful pennant flags, and bright green picnic tables under a covered patio. It has real personality! We dined inside, but on a cooler day, that patio would be the move. We ordered the steak tacos and the quesabirria tacos. Both were yummy!!!!!!. The quesabirria were the standout: crispy, rich, served with consomme for dipping and fresh radish and lime on the side. I do not like a soft quesabirria, so it was perfect. The flavor was on point! The service sealed it. Our server took our order and our drinks got delayed. Before we even noticed, they caught it themselves, apologized, and brought everything right over. I appreciated the simple step of correcting a mistake without being prompted. That matters to me a lot! Worth every mile of the drive from our hotel in Atlantic City.

El Rincon Del Sabor, Mays Landing, NJ…read more Sometimes the best places are the ones you almost drive right past. El Rincon Del Sabor has been open for about two years and sits just off Route 50 in Mays Landing. It is a little off the beaten path, but not by much. After hearing several friends recommend it, we finally decided to give it a try on a Friday night after 8:00 PM. First things first, it is BYOB. The good news is there is a liquor store directly across the street, so picking up whatever you want before dinner couldn't be much easier. The restaurant has that classic hole-in-the-wall feel that usually leads to good food. Inside, it looks like many authentic Mexican restaurants, bright colors, cultural decorations throughout, and a large television in the back playing a fútbol match. It feels comfortable, casual, and welcoming. The menu offers plenty of traditional Mexican dishes, although there were a few unexpected items like pizza, gyros, and cheesesteaks that seemed a little out of place. Still, the authentic selections were clearly the stars of the menu. We started with a basket of freshly made tortilla chips served with two different green sauces. Both were fresh and flavorful. The green sauce was mild and very tasty, while the red sauce brought a little more heat without being overpowering. At our table, one person ordered the chimichanga, which came with rice and beans. The portion was huge and packed with flavor. Another ordered the birria tacos, served with fresh cilantro, onions, and a rich consommé for dipping. They couldn't stop talking about how much they enjoyed them. I was originally looking for mole, but didn't see it listed on the menu. After asking our waitress, she suggested ordering the enchiladas with their homemade mole sauce instead. When I asked if the mole was made from scratch or from a paste, she smiled and told me her mother makes it from scratch. Anyone who has ever made authentic mole knows just how much time, patience, and ingredients go into preparing it. That answer alone got my attention. The mole completely stole the show. Rich, complex, slightly sweet, with just the right balance of chocolate, spices, and chiles, it was everything homemade mole should be. If you're a fan of mole, this is absolutely the dish I would recommend ordering. As we talked throughout the evening, we learned this is truly a family restaurant. Everyone working that night was related, and it showed. They treated customers like guests rather than just another table. Even though we arrived about an hour before closing, we never once felt rushed, something that can make or break a late dinner experience. We also got the feeling they're trying to build something special here and genuinely care about serving the local community. We learned they have quite a following from residents of The Oaks, and after eating here it's easy to understand why. If you live in The Oaks or are passing through the Mays Landing area, this place is well worth the short drive. The portions are generous, the ingredients are fresh, the food is authentic, and perhaps most importantly, you leave feeling welcomed. We'll definitely be back.

It always used to be good and sometimes better than good but yesterday it was awesome. Big chunks of short rib really fresh delicious pico de gallo and fresh guacamole. And the red salsa is better than it's ever been. It finally has authentic Mexican flavor and it's not afraid to put a little heat into it. Something changed recently because the food is more authentic now than it's ever been, and it's always been good, but they now have taken the steps to the next level. I can't recommend them enough. PS and the owner and the staff really believe in what they're doing and it shows in every aspect of the business. You just can't go wrong there.

I had a dinner that was on the top of the third page of the menu, called the Grand Fiesta Combo which include Rice, Beans, Taco, Tostada, Chicken Sope, and an Enchilada. Too much for me to eat. Wife got Burrito with the Rice and beans. Would bring my own Salsa next time because theirs was a little tame for me, however nice dinner and close to home. Prices are very reasonable and menu is on web site. Will be back.

It is ridiculously overpriced for no reason at all. ​I called to place an order while sitting right outside, and the person who answered the phone could barely speaks a word of English. When I was simply trying to explain my order, she had the nerve to claim I was being "rude" just because of her own inability to understand basic English. To make matters worse, she flat-out refused to even take my order unless I walked inside and paid upfront first. ​If you are running a business taking phone orders, do not put staff on the phones who cannot communicate with English-speaking customers, and never blame the paying customer for your own employee's complete incompetence. Disrespectful, wildly overpriced, and completely unprofessional. Take your money anywhere else.
