Authentic Mexican cuisine at its finest! Since discovering this gem over the last summer, I've been…read morein practically every week! I've had flautas, burritos, quesadillas, tacos, and more and I have never been let down. I absolutely love the chicken tinga and salsa verde here. The chicken tinga burrito is my go-to order and I always request extra salsa verde because it is the best salsa to ever touch my lips! I could literally drink it...Everything is so fresh and tasty! The inside has beautiful cultural decor and plenty of tables. It is a BYOB restaurant so feel free to bring your favorite adult beverage. They can be quite busy at times, but service and quality have never fallen during rush hour. If you dine in, you'll start off with fresh chips and salsa verde, which if you haven't caught on yet, you will love. I've attached some pictures from this visit and from previous visits and yes...the burritos are *always* that big and bursting at the seams. If I had to choose my last meal, it would be La China Poblana, hands down.

I'm so glad that we stumbled across La China Poblana about a year ago. After 10+ successful visits…read moreand many great to-go orders, this has to be one of the most authentic and consistent Mexican restaurants in New Jersey. The burritos are always packed, the presentation of the molcajete for two was amazing, and the quality of their chicken, steak and pork is always great. The salsa verde is 100/10 - I could drink it! You absolutely cannot go wrong with the staples - tacos, quesadillas, burritos, tostadas, fajitas, tamales... they do it all, and they do it WELL. The service is also great when dining in. The decor of the place feels like you're somewhere in the southwest - beautiful colors and imagery on every table, chair, and wall.

I waited inside the restaurant for abt 30 min for my food bc I didn't want to wait in my car…read more That's not a problem but I kept hearing the ladies in the back laughing and talking which is fine but once I got home and took a bite out of my baleada and all I felt and tasted was something burnt and hard and I immediately spit it out and I open my baleada and my chorizo was burnttttt and hard. I don't know why they would serve me this but it was horrible I could not eat it. Also the green and red sauce were super watery if you're not Hispanic you know that's not how salsa should be. So now thinking abt it they didn't care abt my food at all they just kept conversating about how New Brunswick was pricey and their food didn't taste good. I'm from New Brunswick and I wish they proved me wrong but my food was horrible and New Brunswick makes way better food and the hospitality is great in New Brunswick and they don't sell you burnt tasteless food. I've never had to come on yelp and right anything bad but this restaurants food was so bad. I got pupusas as well and the only good one was the beans and cheese. The chicharrón and beans were a 0/10 bc the chicharrón had no flavor.

I couldn't speak with anyone way because no one speaks English. I get home after all that wait and the steak tacos had hard spots on the meat. The empanadas I ordered looked like just a tortilla folded with shredded chicken in some red sauce that was grilled. That is clearly not an empanada. All of this cost me $27 and wasn't worth my time alone. I'll stick with La China in East Brunswick.

Nice authentic Mexican Restaurant on Ferry Street in South River…read more We have had lunch here a number of times. The chilaquiles soup is exceptional and the tortilla chips are homemade. (they serve chips with red and green salsa. Beware the green is super spicy.) We have also had many different orders of tacos which were all delicious. And if you would like a cup of coffee they make it especially for you It's 2 doors off Main Street on Ferry which is a one way so go around. It's worth the ride around the block. Parking is usually available right on the street

Pros: big portions, great food, reasonable prices…read more I've only gotten take out here, but I absolutely love the enchiladas. The prices are so reasonable. 14 dollars for a huge plate of enchiladas with a generous portion of avocados and pickled onions on top. We got the enchiladas con mole and enchiladas con salsa verde. I'm not usually a huge mole fan, but it's absolutely delicious. And the salsa verde was nice and spicy. Will definitely order again!

Otherwise, flavor great, and jalapenos nice and spicy. In fact, everything here was spicy, which I loved but you may not. Ok- guac is more like guac salsa, equal parts tomato to avocado. Also, very spicy. Just not how I like or expect guac. The tacos were small, but came 4 to an order. They double wrap a flour shell, and it just seemed like the ratios were off. Sauces were nice and spicy, but the salsa verde was thicker than I'm used to. Steak was overcooked and the pineapple in the al pastor was under-ripe. Overall, not bad... but not the best taco I've ever had.

Overall good vibes, would come back and recommend!
