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!

A fun time at Egg Harbor's second-best Mexican restaurant…read more If you look at Yelp, you'll see there's another Mexican restaurant that has a slightly better rating than Tacos El Tio. HOWEVER, that other place is BYOB, and if you want to have an alcoholic beverage, for example, a margarita, you'll need to bring your own tequila. Tacos El Tio is a full-service Mexican restaurant that offers well-crafted beverages alongside delicious food. Now, to the specifics... TET has lots of parking. The inside is large, clean, and offers plenty of comfortable seating. You might prefer a table or booth that's on the far side of the dining room, well away from the bar area with its speakers and any loud conversations. Our server, Julie, was attentive, efficient, and delightful. They offer a range of margaritas, from specialty concoctions to their margaritas-on-tap. The on-tap version is about half the cost of the concocted version and, in my opinion, a far better value. As for food, all we tried, all we had to try, was their Los Nachos El Tio. That was a plate, heaped high with corn tortillas, layered with nacho stuff, along with generous portions of beef, chicken, and chorizo. And, unlike the nachos offered by some places, the good stuff wasn't merely a topping; it was interspersed with chips from top to bottom. And it was enough that even though we started off hungry, and even though it was delicious, my wife and I couldn't finish it. The only thing we'll do at our next visit is leave out the chorizo; it was our least favorite of the three proteins. TLDR: Sit somewhere far from the bar, get the least expensive margaritas, order the nachos (maybe without the chorizo), and leave your tequila at home.

Great little place in the old Hutch's (or Heinzers) Corner Store, next to the old Finkbinders TV for all you old people that went to the NJ Avenue School back in the day. I mean way back, when there where no electric typewriters. Anyway, it's a BYOB place with very good food. 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.

I guess when the restaurants response to rude service is to attack the customer instead of apologizing, it tells you everything about this restaurant!

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!

At the counter you can watch the ladies making the tortillas and filling. The food is delicious! The Al Pastor tacos had nice flavorful meat with bits of pineapple. The Sopes were piled high with refried beans, steak, Cotija cheese and salad. Soooo good! Of course, we had to have Jarritos soda! Beer, Coke sodas, Mexican flower drink and Tamarind juice are available. Street parking but pretty easy to find a spot.

Pancho's is a perfectly fine taco spot. I went with my girlfriend on a Saturday night and it wasn't…read moretoo packed so we got a table right away. The place is a decent size so there are plenty of seats. It's certainly a hole-in-the-wall, no frills type of place. You're not coming here for the ambiance. We really wanted tacos, so that's all we ordered. We were disappointed to find that you couldn't really mix and match the meats. 1 order comes with 3 tacos so if you aren't coming with a big group or if you're not trying to have 30+ tacos you will be limited in what you can try. I wish I could've tried all of their tacos but I wasn't interested in taking a ton to go. We settled on the Tripa, Lengua, Cachete Res, and al Pastor. The tacos came out pretty quickly and they were pretty good. The meats were flavorful and the tortillas were solid. They weren't the best tacos I've ever had, but they were good. Aside from not being able to order just 1 taco, my other gripe is the price. 1 order of tacos is $15 and $5/taco is a little steep in my opinion. Sure these tacos are bigger than your average taco, but as someone who likes to order a variety I have to dock points. I wouldn't mind coming back to Pancho's, but it wouldn't be my first choice for food in AC.

The ironic part is that I ended up getting an omelet. Salt & Pepper is a small family run Mexican spot serving up delicious food all day long. Perfect for small groups that want to have some awesome bits after a long night out. Ended up getting Rancheros and various tacos. Everything was great. Staff is very attentive even when the takeout/delivery line is jumpin (busy). Next time I find myself in AC, I'm coming back.

We ordered the food about 25 mins prior and it was ready when we arrived. I ordered the Carne Asada Salad and 2 pupusa bombs. The carne asada salad was good but it was supposed to come with chimichurri which it didn't :( they sent ranch which was disappointing. The pupusa bombs were supposed to be only cheese but they had some type of meat inside. They were really good! It was supposed to be for myself and a child but they only like cheese and since we received the wrong one they didn't get to enjoy it. Overall I would consider ordering here again if I'm in the area.
