We placed our order at 7 PM. The order was ready at 7:12 and picked up by DoorDash at 7:15 estimated delivery time 7:30 (we live 8 or 9 minutes away). We kept getting alerts that our delivery was delayed. It was finally delivered around 8 PM. The end result was cold limp soggy fries that came with the Cuban. A cold sandwich with a soggy roll. Cold nachos with yes you guessed it, soggy tortilla chips. Everything you would expect when your food is sitting in a car for 45 minutes instead of being delivered. After reheating everything in the oven and air fryer the flavors were all there. This restaurant did a fantastic job and put out very good food. I don't have the heart to give it a low score because that reflects on the restaurant and they did a great job. DoorDash dropped the ball. We will order from here again, but from now on, we will pick it up in person.

This place is amazing. I live in town and it is one of my favorite restaurants, especially because…read moreit is a nice change of pace from the numerous Italian and pizza places. It's tiny, with only enough space for about ten tables, so the atmosphere is super cozy. My son and I came here last night during Haddonfield's Friday night candlelight holiday shopping when all of Kings Highway was lit up and filled with carolers and shoppers. My son got the burrito de pescado ($15) and I got the enchiladas de carnitas ($20). Both were excellent and incredibly filling. They don't accept reservations so you'll have to show up and try your luck, and possibly put your name on a waitlist and wait for a call. Also, they will knock 10% off your bill if you pay in cash.

Been in search of a new date night spot since moving to south jersey and I'm glad we stopped here…read morewhile taking a stroll through Haddonfield. We ordered tamales as our appetizer and they were incredible. Tasted like my childhood. We went with the chicken burrito and the tacos de birria as our entrees. Neither dish disappointed. The birria tacos were the best i've had in a long time. Coming from central jersey, we have been spoiled with amazing food from all cultures -- but ever since moving here we've had a hard time finding local places that are tasty and worth it. This will be our new place for sure. Can't wait to come back! It's located in the downtown area so after dinner you can walk straight to the local dessert shops. The waiter was also awesome!

I have a usual go to Mexican spot but I decided to try somewhere new today…read more I can always tell if a Mexican place will have good food by the rice... the bite of rice here was lackluster unfortunately and so were the rest to follow The shrimp quesadilla was a mystery. The cheese was rubbery and not hot. There was barely any shrimp or flavor in this dish The Al pastor burrito was also a little sad. The rice was flavorless, the meat was chewy but the spices were decent. the fries were probably the best thing that I ate, they were crispy. The guac was very very smooth but I like mine chunky with tomatoes, herbs and peppers but that's my preference. I also love when a Mexican spot gives fresh salsa and pico as service which I did not get The mango Al Fresca tasted so weird. It was like watered down not so good mango juice. I love the one at el nopolito so I was very disappointed it didn't taste similar Overall I wasn't happy with the flavors and quality of the food. I'll def be sticking to my usual Mexican food location

There are four or five tables. I'm guessing they more take out than dining in. Our waitress was friendly and professional. She left a pitcher of water at the table, which I always like. We started with beef empanadas which were great! We both ordered chimichangas. Mine was with beef and my boyfriend had chorizo. We enjoyed everything and the presentation was very nice!

What a nice treat!…read more Stopped in randomly on a lovely Saturday. Our server was a little unsure of the weekend offerings, but made sure to check and followed up with us. She was dealing with a pretty busy room, so kudos to her for remaining calm. I'm so happy they are able to offer a lunch special even on a Saturday. I went for the $12 nacho salad which came with a side of rice and beans. Fantastic. But my favorite part of the meal was actually the complimentary salsa and chips. HANDS DOWN AMONG THE BEST I'VE EVER EATEN. The salsa was killer, made from scratch, a nice tart tangy kick. The chips were hand made, nice and thick to hold the heft of the salsa and perfectly salted. Honestly, I could've slurped the salsa up on its own. I want to come back just for that!

Editing this review as an employee has responded. Our party did in fact offer to show our IDs we had IN HAND and she blatantly refused to acknowledge us . She stated she wouldn't serve us and would get another waitress or a manager but instead chose to snatch the menus and ignore us. That does not seem to be the standard of any restaurant following nj law. She was extremely rude. Again her attitude complete changed when members of our party began speaking in Spanish to better understand the situation. Hopefully she changes her attitude for future encounters.

Seem to do a good takeout business as well, as we saw DoorDashers coming and going to the little counter all night. They have a little display case with to-go desserts at the hostess desk.

Parking lot is tiny for a strip mall that is almost exclusively dining options, but we managed to find a spot in the back by the dumpsters. The overall experience checked every box. Give it a try!

Located on the main strip on Haddon Ave, we wound up here quite by accident. When we walked in, and it was funeral parlor empty. The inside is nice, spacious and super clean, but zero customers had us feeling "uh oh." But our server came around the corner and ushered us into an adjoining room, equally as nice, that had a few other patrons dining. Fears alleviated, we sat down and got to ordering. The menu is great, with something from everyone. We got the birria burrito for me, lobster tacos for the Misses, mac and cheese for the Little One, and a side of Sweet Plantains for everyone. FIRST, god lord almighty....them sweet plantains are MAGICAL! They taste like French Toast. OMG......SOOO good. The rest of the food had an extremely high bar to live up to, and it did. Everything was fast, fresh and delicious. Even the price was tolerable. Our server was extremely nice, though I wish he would have written stuff down, as we had to remind him a couple of times about our requests. No biggie. We will, 100% be back, and if it's anything like last time, I have a feeling Paloma will be moving onto the 5-Star list quickly.

Took a long time for the food to arrive and then we still had to wait for chicken tenders to come out for my daughter. The food was okay. But not really worth the wait.
