Be sure to get one of the other depending upon your mood For food, my favorite by far is two different kinds of quesadillas: the one with mushrooms called hongos, and one with a cactus flower which is flor de calabaza. A third quesadilla that I also like has a mix of vegetables called huitlacoche. Whenever I am at the Harrison PATH or nearby I go out of my way to get the food and smoothies here.

Ayanna (sp?) is a SPECTACULAR bartender. She will attend to you professionally and kindly. She is a blast! We had the sweet plantains (maduros) and the tacos al pastor, which were very good. If we ever go back to Newark (we may, we have friends over there, an we like shows), we will absolutely look for a night when Ayanna is bartending. Whoever runs this place has not only common but also business sense. We really enjoyed our night, so thank you! - Tai and J

I do wish the tortilla was soaked in the consome before being thrown on the grill for extra flavor because I found the consome to be delicious. The queso made this filling and they were generous with the taco fillings. This ran me $17 without a drink. The service is lackluster. The lady at the counter didn't greet me or pay me any mind. However, she came by later as I was eating to ask if I wanted water. There is ample parking available from those driving to the establishment.

So I ordered one of their tortas with steak, jalapeño, onions and cheese. I was expecting a simple sandwich to hold me until I got home. What I was served was the biggest torta I had ever seen. And it was delicious! Fresh ingredients all around, loved everything especially the bread. The house made green and red hot sauces are amazing. Love the flavor and heat. The jalapeño in the torta kicked as well, I was a happy camper. Few tables to seat and eat, staff very friendly and helpful. Prices are moderate and worth it for the good quality food served. Loved how the place was nicely decorated for FIFA and gave a relaxing atmosphere with the games playing on TV. Can be a cool date spot as well. Looking forward to trying other menu items here.

When I was there, they had a DJ playing, and it added energy without being too loud or overwhelming. The Service was very good, the waiter answered and helped with all our questions. The food was absolutely amazing really flavorful and well done. Just be a little prepared that most dishes come in smaller portions. But the quality definitely makes up for it. I ordered the paella, and it's easily enough for two or even three people and it was well worth it. Really delicious. The drinks were also definitely worth trying while you're there. The only thing I wasn't big on was the desserts they didn't quite live up to the rest of the meal. But overall, great atmosphere, excellent food, and a fun experience. I'd definitely come back.
