I thoroughly enjoy the outdoor seating and backyard games here on a nice day, however the food has always been unimpressive. Given I am vegetarian so my options are limited. Their cocktails and margaritas are great, but I have yet to try food here that I genuinely would rave about. The chips and salsa at each table is a nice addition to the drinks, but they are rather stale at times. read more

Central Taco and Tequila - Margarita flight - Tacos Near Me - Haddon Township, New Jersey

I live within walking distance and come here every once in a while. Not much of a tequila or margarita guy but sometimes the mood strikes. The ambiance is lovely every time I come. Great outdoor spaces for warmer weather, and the inside is always packed and lively. Most recently came on a Saturday night in October with a few friends. Our waitress was excellent. Wish I remembered her name! She was incredibly attentive and also patient when we were being indecisive on food and drinks and needed more time. I loved the mezcal I ordered, which is hard to find at other bars I've been to, so it's my go to drink when I come here. Our one friend ordered two different margaritas and didn't finish either one, though. She said they were too sweet. I really enjoyed the carne asada tacos I got but wow they were small. The picture doesn't do them justice. Definitely more of an appetizer than a main meal. Overall great spot in a town with lots of incredible restaurants. Definitely worth checking out. read more

Was in the mood for tacos. Forgot it was Taco Tuesday. The place was mobbed. Tacos came out very slowly and I found them disappointing. The fish tacos were meh, the piece of Cod was thin as a finger. The $2.00 tacos were a better deal. read more

I would gladly travel for these tacos. I've visited Central Taco and Tequila a few times over the years, and I'm always very pleased with it. On my last visit, I was surprised and delighted by some new seasonal tacos on the menu (but I had to go with my fave - The Crispy Fish). It was nice to know there was a veggie option. Service was great, as usual. The only potential issue is that there was a DJ, and the volume from that made it a little difficult for us to communicate with our waitress and each other. But maybe that's just a Friday thing. read more

I came here with a group of five for lunch and we were seated right away. Walking in we got to see the outdoor seating area that is set up with plenty of tables, lights, and even games. The inside of the restaurant has a casual vibe, as there was a bar and TVs at the front of the restaurant. When we were seated we were given waters and chips and salsa for the table. Later on, our server also gave us a pitcher of water to refill our waters ourselves. I ordered the Avocado Crunch salad and also added chicken. My expectations were not very high, considering the restaurant specializes in tacos, though I loved my salad! The chicken was cooked and seasoned well, the vegetables were fresh, and the dressing was delicious. Two other people in our group also had the Avocado Crunch salad and we all agreed it was excellent. One touch I loved, was when one member in our group asked for a box for her tacos, the box that was given to her was specially made for holding tacos! I would have to come back again and try more items on the menu in order to raise my rating, but overall we had a great experience! read more

We went here for the first time last night and had a great experience! There was no wait and we were seated outside. They had a DJ playing music starting at 6pm for their "Fiesta Friday". They started us with complimentary chips and salsa. For drinks we had the strawberry pineapple margarita and the jalapeño margarita. The strawberry pineapple margarita was good but it wasn't strained enough, so it was very thick. For tacos, we ordered the shrimp coconut tacos and the shrimp and chorizo tacos. Both were very tasty! We loved this outdoor setting and the tacos and would highly recommend! read more

We enjoyed a meal here since it was a dine and donate for the library. It was fun to try the margarita flight but it was confusing that the menu specifically said to ask about making your margarita into a mocktail, which I did and they said they couldn't do it? Also, the tacos took over 1/2 hour to come out. However, the salsa and quesadilla was very good. read more

Margaritas were good. Guac and chips were good. Would not come here for tacos. We got the Quesabirria Tacos and Al Pastor Tacos. Very dry. The birria consomé was thick and tasted a bit like bbq sauce. Definitely not authentic tacos if that's what you're looking for. read more

Always good food. Come in and politely told there's a 15-20 minute wait for a booth. There's an obvious open booth. Waited almost 20 minutes to be sat at the open booth. read more

This spot has quickly become my go-to for tacos (for lunch). The feel of the atmosphere is above the usual chain-restaurant level with super-par tacos/burritos, enchiladas, etc., and with a more authentic Mexican feel than places like Taco Bell or Pancheros. The atmosphere is laid-back, making it perfect for occasions whether you're grabbing a quick bite on the go or just hanging out with college friends for a snack break. If you're in the area and craving Mexican food for a quick meal, this is definitely the place to stop. read more

Came here with a girl friend in early May (ahead of Cinco De Mayo) and from a food perspective, I thought it was really good. We got nachos that were really flavorful, my friend had brussel sprouts that looked really well charred, and i got their specialty pork belly tacos that were the perfect blend of all flavors. I got a lemon blueberry margarita that was absolutely pure perfection. From the service / ambiance side, this probably isn't the place for you if you're looking for speed or good conversation. It was insanely, uncomfortably loud, and while our waitress was doing her best, the crowds were just a lot. If you're looking for something that boisterous, you'd love it. If you aren't: you may need to look for a non weekend night. read more

We stopped in on a Saturday and were seated right away. It was a chilly day out so we opted to sit inside even though they have a heated deck. Our server was sweet and we noticed the bar to be relatively empty. Our tacos were good and they have gluten free options on the menu! The drinks were fair, nothing crazy. They had popular sweet options. Probably would stop here on a whim but I wouldn't make a special trip here. For the area it's decent "mexican" food. TLDR; good chain-y mexican food. The have specials throughout the week, tv's inside, and outdoor seating for when it's nice out. read more

Nice vibe. Open and energetic. Staff was super friendly and attentive I had the marg of the month- watermelon mint. I appreciated the inclusion of fresh juice but I suspect sugar was also added. It was sweet. I added some water and it was ok. We got tacos - crispy chicken and I order ground beef americano on corn tortilla. The kinda sucked. Neither were warm enough and tasted really lack luster. We also got queso and chips. Chips were made there. Nice and thin and crispy. With salt thankfully. But the salsa was tasteless and the queso wasn't warm enough and was disappointing. I was gonna get the churros but after the meal, we opted to roll. read more

I just love this place! Today we got Evan and he was awesome, fastest service and he had great recommendations. He also made our drinks himself so they were perfect each time. I would absolutely request him on your next visit. 10/10. read more

Food was mid. Ceviche tostada appetizer was good quality but 4 chips topped with fish. For $11 I felt like that was a little pricy. The fish in the fish tacos doesn't taste homemade or fresh, more like a frozen fish stick. read more

Great outdoor area with plenty of tables, nice inside as well. Had the coconut shrimp tacos, a little heavy on the breading/coating but still tasty. The guac and chicken dip are out of this world. read more

Way better than the first two times I have been here. I absolutely hated everything about this place the first two times from terrible service to garbage food. With that being said this time was much different. We had great food and great service. The vibe in here is way different when you're getting good service and food. I didn't think I would be back but gave it another shot and will be back again. Coconut margarita is on point I coulda drank 10 but only had one because of work the next day. Shrimp and chorizo tacos are also on point. read more

I took friend here for lunch on Presidents Day.. It was a bit busy, but not packed. I ordered the Margarita flight and my friend got a frozen lemonade while we took a look at the menu. Complimentary tortilla chips and salsa were placed on the table. If you happened to eat the free basket of chips, and wanted another, that would cost $2.00. The tortilla chips themselves were okay, a handful of large chips and lots of broken pieces. For appetizers I got the chicken tortilla soup and my friend got a chicken empanada. The empanada was absolutely drowned in crema and chipotle cream. It totally overpowered the empanada. My soup was good, but very spicy, not advertised on the menu. I can handle heat, but this choked me up a bit. Service at this point was very, very slow and inattentive. We needed napkins, water and drink refills and had to wait for those. Entrees were just ok. The shrimp fajitas were served with 4 tiny flour tortillas. A handful of shrimp were overcrowded by tons of onions and peppers. Too many vegetables, not enough shrimp or tortillas. The drinks were the star of the show. Especially the blood orange Margarita. What an incredible combination! I've been telling everyone about this. The slice of blood orange in the drink was a nice touch. My friend enjoyed her frozen lemonade. Important take... service was not good, it wasn't packed, yet we had to ask for things like napkins and water not twice, but three times...this made us feel like we were annoying the waitress, (when we did see her) I'd come back for the delicious Bloody Orange Margarita and a few appetizers. read more

Central Taco and Tequila is decent for happy hour and lunch. There are plenty of options for seating, indoor and outdoor. Had some things off the happy hour menu. Ordered their classic margarita and asked for mango flavor, which was cool. The appetizer, the Mexican street corn, was okay. Empanadas was tasty. There was nothing spectacular about the nachos. I tried the coconut shrimp tacos and they were okay (felt like they needed their own special sauce or something was missing) but not filling. read more

I've been here before for happy hour but I recently went for dinner. My friends and I ordered margs and ordered guac as an appetizer. Drinks were great, I like how there was a variety of margaritas to choose from. However, I ordered the coconut shrimp tacos and wasn't a fan of my meal. The meal was overwhelmingly sweet, I was expecting it to be a mix of sweet and savory. read more

Came here with a group; have only visited once. Has a bar/grill feel to it; very loud. They also have outside seating. Good was great. Was pleasantly surprised by the tortilla chips and the fried avocado tacos. The virgin paloma was not good: it was mostly ice cubes. The rest of our food was brought out warm, well seasoned/cooked. The service by staff was excellent. read more

I've come a few times for happy hour and loved it. The prices are great and so is the food. However, on my last visit, the bartender (Shannon) was more concerned about talking to her coworkers than serving. Also, she completely ignored me several times. When she wasn't talking to coworkers, she was checking on everyone at the bar except for me. The bartender Caitlin was amazing!! They have an excellent happy hour and good margaritas. I don't even like margaritas. I'll probably return and hope that Shannon isn't working. read more

Nice area to walk around near then drive over to eat! We had dunkin drinks when we walked in...they open at 11 we were there at 11:10AM. I was cheerful and said we will have 7! The manager immediately gave us a disgusted look and said with outside beverages?? I told him we don't mind putting them in the car. I know that's usually how it is but his delivery was nasty. Never saw him again when we ate. The waitress however was super nice and attentive. We order Mexican buffalo dip and nachos with beef as appetizers. Mexican buffalo YUMMMM. Nachos weren't too bad! Average. We had a blood orange margarita, a transfusion, a cucumber breeze, and coconut margarita between all of us...all of the drinks were fantastic. I got the veggie tacos and it was spicy but delicious! Everyone else had no complaints about the coconut shrimp tacos, queso, burrito, and ground beef tacos! I would definitely go! Just make sure no outside drinks so you don't get a disgusted look from the manager! read more

Would give 0 stars if I could. The sweet hostess and nice decor are the only nice things I have to say. Coke was flat and tasted stale. Our server was rude, and acted like we were bothering her (there were two tables of people in the place, then it got busier). Not one smile. A persistent frown, in face. She was wearing essentially underwear on the bottom. Not the kind of place I expected that. Mexican street corn was nearly-raw corn. Inedible. Burrito bowl with carne asada: not sure what cut that was but it wasn't carne asada. It was chewy and tough, way overcooked (I wasn't asked for a temp choice but I guess well done is chefs choice). The entire bowl had a sour taste. I double checked the menu to see what could possibly make it taste sour and nothing jumped out at me. No tortilla served with as the menu described. I didn't eat much. Waitress didn't ask why I had a full plate. Ground beef tacos had onions and peppers in; please put this on the menu if those are added; not your standard ground beef taco one would expect. Again, waitress didn't notice or care about all the untouched food. Getting our bill and getting it paid took 3x longer than it should have. We won't be back. read more

The food had NO flavor. I ordered the nachos a few drinks. The cucumber mixed drinks were good, I should have snapped some pictures. The blonde heavy set female waitress with the bob was absolutely rude. She made a nasty comment about my dress while in her servant uniform. I was kind enough to tip when I shouldn't have. I will never be eating there again and wouldn't recommend it to anyone else. Poor service, bland food and rude staff. I'd give this place a 0 if I could. read more

Decided to give this place a try despite bad reviews. Bad decision. Got the lemon blueberry margarita, it was very sweet, and not much alcohol in it. As my husband and i were sitting at the bar, the guy next to us was basically pushing my husband out of his seat. Apparently he was a regular, as all the bartenders knew him and the woman he was with. We left the bar and got on the waitlist for a table. Luckily we only had to wait for 10 min or so. We ordered the guacamole, spicy chicken tacos, and the Korean beef tacos. I should have known by the price point that these tacos were lacking with filling. The chicken tacos had a sad piece of fried chicken in each tortilla and the taste was ok. Thankfully we ordered the pineapple salsa to add some flavor. The Korean tacos had a bit more flavor, but not as flavorful as i would expect. The guacamole was just ok. This is the first time I left a restaurant hungry. I realized that the restaurant is full of young adults, probably bc the food is cheap. If you are looking for good margaritas and good tacos, this is NOT the place. Go anywhere else. read more

I have been to Central before and thought the drinks were good but the food was just okay. This time, it's different. The drinks are just AS good - love every single margarita on the menu. Seriously, you can't go wrong with any of them. There are the fruit margaritas, jalapeño margarita and more. My friend and I arrived on the last hour of HH, waited no more than about 5 mins to get seated & wanted to make sure we can drink a few margaritas before 6 lol. Place has a good amount of people inside but it did get more packed as time went on. Aside from getting margaritas, we started with the Mexican dip. Delicious! Try it. Out of the specials menu, my friend and I ordered the fajitas, thinking they'd be the traditional size (like an actual fajita). Yea, they were so small (more like a taco size or smaller) and the portions (meat and sides) were a lot smaller than what you get at a mom/pop/traditional Mexican restaurant. Either way, it was still good just not a good portion to be shared. That being said, we each ordered tacos. Also, good - try them all!! Service was great. read more

Pros - great prices - delicious fried avocado taco Cons - inconsistent portions: you can kinda see from the picture that one of our chicken tacos had a popcorn-chicken kernel of meat and the fish tacos were more batter than fish - extremely uncomfortable service. The staff member taking my table's order stopped by every three minutes to ask how things were. I appreciate attentiveness, but it felt like she was breathing down our necks for no reason at all since the tables around us ordered less, sat down before us/were there for longer, etc. Honestly, I want to give her the benefit of the doubt and say she was sincerely trying her best, but it felt like she wanted us out. All that said, I'm happy to have been dragged out here for a work lunch and I'm leaving an optimistic rating because I definitely want to give this place a second chance! read more

Central Taco is a on my list for affordable drink, food & good for gatherings. There is a small parking lot and the train station lot is usually open. This Friday I went in at 6 and it was a full restaurant of people but no wait. Most staff is wearing masks (2022). The food are smaller on portions but fair in price, which makes it easier to choose variety. I really enjoyed the street corn soup special but it did have the vibe of being a dip. Super creamy and a bit cheesey, more like a snack. The tacos Ive had in past visits were pretty decent & the (one) empanada app was also tasty. Id give this a thumbs up to go visit. Since I went during Winter, it might be a wait to get a seat but there are other options in the area. read more

Finally had an opportunity to visit Central Taco & Tequila, the 23rd restaurant operated by PJW Restaurant Group. This location was formerly the Irish Mile. I really like the open and spacious industrial look and feel of the interior restaurant with plenty of large windows amplifying the 150 seat space. They have an outdoor deck off the back side of the restaurant with some seating and plenty of tables and umbrellas setup out front in what used to be the parking lot pre-pandemic. The food was decent with some great menu options and service was excellent, but based on my first visit, I would frequent more for the impressive tequila list (91 total) and margaritas then the food. More visits and tasting needed to fully review the food. read more
