Everything from service to to being appreciated by everyone that works for your establishment I always feel important when I go in there.

Food? Yes, they have food AND it's awesome!!! Everything we've had here was delicious. The guacamole $18.00 is delicious and 3-4 can share a bowl. The menu has the best tasting taco options I've ever had: The 2 for $12 offers a number of options available on corn, flour or for $3.00 more, lettuce. We've had the Fish, Salmon, Carnitas, Pastor and Vegetable. Size is small. Flavors are big. There are 5 $18.00 tacos, various salads including a couple of ceviche - sound delicious as does this: BIRRIA PIZZADILLA $58.00 Triple Stacked with Chihuahua Cheese, Onion, Cilantro, Beef Consomé, Flour Tortilla and they have more... Service is friendly, wait time is reasonable. The interior is really interesting. Sorry, no pictures read more

Love the vibe at Camacho! I came for happy hour so I didn't get to try their full menu, but what I did have was enough for me to want to come back again! I started off with the cucumber and guava margs. The cucumber was super refreshing and perfect for summer! The bartender also recommended the guava which was a bit sweeter than the cucumber but still good! I also tried the curly fries which were topped with lots of good things. Their menu looked pretty good too so I'm looking forward to returning and trying some of the entrees. read more

We've visited Camacho Garage several times over the years, most recently to celebrate my parents' anniversary. The food was all delicious, especially the queso. Our waiter was good, but didn't write anything down and forgot our side order of plantains, which he did realize himself and got it for us, and my mom never got her side of guac. One of the bartenders remembered my mom from her visit last week and brought over a round of champagne to celebrate their anniversary, which was so sweet of him! A solid choice for Mexican in New Haven. read more

Great ambience with the clean bar and high top seating with good kind staff with impressive food. The drinks were great as well!

Absolutely amazing and we have been a couple of times with our daughter. We are from Carlsbad Ca north of San Diego and all the food we have had and family members have had was delicious and fantastic ! They have amazing staff and service, plus the environment is relaxing and comfortable. We highly recommend this to anyone. You will not regret and for sure like us anytime in town to visit this will be the place to visit. read more

This place was TOOOOO good. My friend and I tried it for the first time after living in Westville for two years!!! Our bill was high as hell but that's our fault bc we basically ordered the menu. Service was great and the place is so cute. Attached is a photo of me effing up a taco it was TOO GOOD read more

Camacho Garage - Mexican Near Me - New Haven, Connecticut

Cool place. Reminds me of a place called Burrito Haus in Nogales Mexico that was actually a garage once. Great old rusty signs and high tops similar to car lifts. Excellent lunch specials. Mostly tacos but with high end ingredients. I had the mix and match 3 tacos, carnitas, pollo asada and veggies. Husband had the soup and taco combo with pulpos (octopus) and sausage. He also got the Camacho Garage Lager. I particularly enjoyed the salsa verde. Our waiter was the bartender and he was very friendly and knowledgeable. The high top was a bit difficult for my short fat legs but I managed it. They also have regular tables. Highly recommended for their lunch specials. Very inexpensive. read more

The food was AMAZING! Not all pictured but we especially loved the Mexican hot dog, pozole verde, queso fundido and hibiscus agua Fresca!!! My step dad got the chicharon quesadilla which he loved. It is cute and vibey. Our server was kind and honest :) read more

Place has great ambiance! The food is excellent, though arguably on the expensive side. Just for reference, the Mexican Torta here was on the Brunch Menu for $19. I did also get to try my wife's chilaquiles which were also pretty good. Parking is a bit of a challenge unless you're parking on the street. So while I can't give it a perfect score, it is well worth checking out! Edit: adjusting to 3 stars. $9 for a sparkling water? read more

Camacho Garage - Mexican Torta - Mexican Near Me - New Haven, Connecticut

I had Birria Tacos and a Hibiscus Agua Fresca. Disclaimer, this refers to an October 2023 visit. I found the tacos a little one-note, salty, fatiguing on the palate. I remember needing a break after the first taco... The space is funny. A cavernous converted car garage decked out with automobile memorabilia. There's A LOT of space, including a full bar. read more

A really nice restaurant in New Haven. A packed Thursday night was quite noisy but conversations were able to be had. 6 of us had the Tacos and they were prepared really well and were good sized and delicious. We had an ice cream dessert which we all took spoonfuls. Drinks were well made and beer was super cold. A really nice place. Many choices and I will be back to try the other offerings read more

The service was great everyone was really friendly. Plenty of street parking when I went on a weekday evening. I rated it low just because I wasn't impressed with the food. I would have preferred the salsa to be served with chips rather than tostadas, and the tacos I ordered were just average. Overall, the flavors didn't feel very authentic. The high prices for what you get is not worth it! read more

Wow, I Don't know why I took so long to try this place out. I've been following this chef since he first opened his restaurant Roomba in New Haven. It was the first time I tried a Mexican torta and it won't be the last. Don't skip out on their queso fun detail. It's probably the best I've ever had loaded with mushrooms strips of poblano pepper and chorizo. Absolutely delicious!. Pork belly tacos was a solid choice as well. I can't wait to back for Happy Hour. read more

Very nice indoor/outdoor restaurant with tasty tacos and an excellent spicy margarita. We had the Carne Arrechera with their spiciest sauce. The flavors were fresh, and the blue tortillas delicious. The prices are pretty high for the size of the tacos. Johnny had the gringo taco and a pocho asada taco (chicken). All were good but the Arrechera were by far the best. The atmosphere is comfy and service pretty decent. We will be back read more

The ambiance and servers were great. We had a party of 12 and everyone raved about the food. My friend and I got the family style tacos and we unfortunately were the only ones dissatisfied with our meal. We got the chicken and pastor tacos. The chicken was dry and the el pastor did not have pineapple. The server just brought us a small dish of pineapples to resolve the issue. Overall had a great time, but wish we enjoyed our meal as much as everyone else! read more

This place isn't far from where I am staying, so I've frequented here a few times. The quality of ingredients is top notch, and their drink selections are both wide and strong. My go-to is the octupus and shrimp ceviche - fresh, acidic, and flavorful. Octupus and chorizo tacos are another one of my favorites. As a side, I'd reach for the street corn off the cob every time. Two issues I've had are when it comes to choozing tacos and cost. You can mix and match the basic tacos, but when it comes to the special tacos, you get two and can not mix and match. Then the cost is something to consider. It was almost enough to give this place 4 stars, but the quality won out. read more

Came for lunch and had a really good meal. The guacamole was very good (I liked the pepitas and that it was a bit spicy) and the torta was massive and tasty. I liked the addition of the egg and felt the sandwich was a good value for the price, I would have just liked a bit more carnitas on it. The service was friendly and they allow dogs on the outdoor patio. The tables were spaced a good distance apart so you didn't feel you were on top of the other guests. Overall a nice spot for lunch. read more

It's a yes for me. Four stars. Love the decor. Bartenders were friendly and talkative. The food was delicious. Portions are modest, not big. Everything very vibrant. All the elements of a new favorite place! read more

Finally got out there to try it. I had the Diablo tacos and my partner had the chicken enchiladas. Both were delicious, service was amazing, we told them we were on your way to a show and they were super accommodating and fast. Can't wait to go back. The pink lady drink was delicious! Definitely coming back! Thank you! read more

Great atmosphere, good tacos, and a great price! We had about 20 people with 2 tables of 10. Our group flew in for a local event and met here for lunch. People from Texas, New Mexico, Louisiana, New York, Arizona, Pennsylvania, and Ohio. The employees at the restaurant were friendly and accommodating. Thank you for a fun experience! read more

Camacho Garage - 2 for $10 Carne asada and carnitas tacos - Mexican Near Me - New Haven, Connecticut

Long standing Camacho fan. Always enjoy the people, ambiance is always on point. Last dining experience was not so great. Ordered the birria tacos, chicken quesadilla and the queso fundido. The queso was delicious, hot, flavorful and well Prepared. The chicken in the quesadilla was dry, cold and hard to eat. My birria had a warm taco and cold meat. Margarita was delicious. Moving forward this will be more of a happy hour spot for me and no longer for dinner and special occasions. read more

I used to be a huge fan but recently it just hasn't been the same. Tonight was likely our last time. Drinks took 25 minutes to arrive after ordering but food took 5. Was warm, not really hot. Drinks were meh. Service was super slow. And bartenders looked overwhelmed. With so many options nearby we'll go elsewhere now read more

Camacho Garage. It is truly a fun and enjoyable place to spend your end of week, listening to great music, savoring a glass of spicy margarita, and indulging in delicious Mexican cuisine. We decided to try the family taco meal, and to our surprise, it turned out to be incredibly generous and could easily feed a family of four. The fish tacos were amazing, and even though I don't consume meat, I was informed that the chicken was also delicious and divine. If I may make a recommendation, do not hesitate to ask for extra pickled red onions as they complement the dishes perfectly. Our waiter, Carlos, provided exceptional service, and he made sure to check on us frequently throughout our meal. Overall, my time at Camacho Garage was delightful, and I would highly recommend it for anyone looking for a lively atmosphere and scrumptious Mexican food. read more

First and foremost I love the aesthetic and concept. It's an actual garage that has been transformed into a restaurant! Now the food, the elite is a must! It was my favorite thing on the menu. The guacamole is a nice shareable. I got the tuna and shrimp ceviche and it was very fresh but I personally wasn't the biggest fan! The drinks are also tasty and fairly strong. read more

There are some places which make the presentation fancy but fail in taste. But this is one of those places which can do presentation and the taste both win! This place does amazing mexican flavours and gives vegetarian options which is the greatest part according to me. They can do wonders in their desserts as well. The pictures here don't do enough justice. The tacos, tostadas, quesadillas were lip smackingly delicious. We will surely return and recommend to all. Enjoy the amazing food, service and ambiance - all in one! Great job to the team who makes it possible. read more

What a letdown! Water was requested several times before it was served. Appetizers ordered and never served. Table with many dishes and not removed before putting entrees down. read more

My friend and I enjoyed dinner here tonight. The service was good and the food also! The decor of this place is super unique and creative. The time and day we went wasn't busy which was nice. Happy hour deals are great. $6 for sangria! I would definitely come back. read more

Camacho is a very interesting restaurant built out of a garage with all the artifacts from a garage. The food is delicious. The service is wonderful very businesslike but kind. we've gone several times and we found this to be true every time. read more

Came here after a long day of moving & unpacking. I got the regular margarita and it was amazing, fresh ingredients and refreshing. My parents got some assortment of tacos and I got the pork belly tacos. Everything was very good, our waitress could have been a little more attentive but overall a good experience! read more

Date night in New Haven and it was a quick walk from our air BNB .. when you find someone who loves Birria tacos as much as you. It must be true love lol ok enough of that... We both ordered Birria Tacos and street corn.. he opted for it to be on the cob and I did it in a dish. The Birria Tacos were just amazing. Flavorful with dipping sauce. Corn was delicious as well read more

This place has gone downhill big time over the years with the food. Came last weekend and got the Birria tacos and they were literally dripping in grease. Had in the past and they were pretty decent. Also, $18 for two tacos?!! Insane. Prices are crazy here. My margarita was $17. My friend got the chicken tacos and the chicken was dry. Bland too. Step it up Camacho. Wouldn't come back for food. Maybe a drink. read more

Met up with some friends the other night and discovered this delicious restaurant about a 10 minute drive from Downtown New Haven. If you're in the area and craving good Mexican food this Camacho will not disappoint! For starters, the ambience here is fun and lively making it a solid choice for weekend dinner plans or happy hour. The menu isn't extremely expansive (I was shocked to discover they don't have burritos) but this place has a lot of the staples you would hope for. I tried the Birria tacos and friend sweet plantains. The plantains were decently portioned, soft, sweet, and fried to perfection. The tacos were also tasty but I thought the Birria cause could've used more flavor. Solid dinner experience all around! read more

Waisting away again in Margaritaville...This little paradise in Westville, brings you back to a little cantina in Mexico. It is a former automotive garage, that has been transformed into a Mexican cantina. The food is fresh a delicious. Our party started with their street corn, roasted vegetables, chips and Guacamole. All of it was delicious. All of us had assorted tacos and all of them were enjoyed. The menu is full of specialty drinks. You need to know that this restaurant specializes in small plates. So you are better off ordering a bunch for the table. read more

Great spot in New Haven for drinks, a quick bite, and happy hour. We tried the table side guacamole, which was amazing. Also really enjoyed the ancho curly fries and the tinga tostada off their happy hour menu. The sangria was delicious, as well as the ceviche. It was a slower weekday afternoon when we arrived, and the bar tender took care of us at our table. Modern and updated interior and decor. read more

I only came here because I was hungry and wanted to eat something within walking distance of Edgewood. You can tell by the vibes it's a less authentic Mexican restaurant with food on the pricier side. The decor was cool and I liked how the restaurant was very open since the weather was nice. The glasses on our table were dirty, though the server was kind enough to bring us new ones. The takeout box I was given was also falling apart and I had to ask someone for tape when I was walking around in the area and all of the food almost spilled out of the bag so it seems like there are some quality control issues here? I was also disappointed at the fact horchata isn't served here especially since it was listed on the menus displayed outside the restaurant. The waitress didn't even know what horchata was, which was super surprising given how common this drink is at Mexican restaurants. I got a Hibiscus Agua Fresca instead, and it honestly just tasted like lemonade I would make at home. I got a family-style meal of Carnitas to share with my friends and I'm glad I did. The food was pretty good, though it wasn't the best I've had. However, the portion size was massive. At $54, this could've easily fed 5-6 people because me and my two friends had so much left over and we were starving when we arrived! That being said, I thought this was a great value, but I don't think I'd be willing to pay for a single serving size of food when there are better places with cheaper pricing around. read more

How has it taken me so long to visit Camacho Grill when I live in walking distance? I decided to treat my best friend to a birthday lunch, and this was midway between the both of our homes. It's so happens that we arrived during happy hour, bonus! Their happy hour options are limited, but I was able to try both the white and red sangria. I believe they contain two types of rum with wine along with a wedge of lemon and orange. Definitely good. I ordered the red sangria second and opted for no ice and I preferred it that way. They also have curly fries on the menu , which were good. For my entrée, I decided to get the wild mushroom tacos with a side of rice and beans. It took a little time for the main entrée to arrive but the rice and beans were hot- as if freshly made. My best friend got the Mexican hot dog off of the happy hour menu and she said that it was really good. As we were dining and chatting, we observed their hours and realized that they are open pretty late on the weekends so we plan on visiting to just check out the bar scene over the course of the summer. Great ambience, a very welcoming staff. Small parking lot but ample street parking. The food was good, but I wish they would expand their menu a little bit. Maybe frozen fruit margaritas and a nacho option would be fabulous. Otherwise, definitely worth checking out. read more
