    This was my first visit. I tried the pulled pork rice plate which includes rice, beans and potato…read moresalad. Pulled pork was perfectly seasoned. I loved how moist and juicy the pork was. The potato salad was smooth with some chunks of potatoes and a light crunch from the veggies. My favorite was the beans that pair perfectly with the rice and meat! All this for only $12!!! Wow! I highly recommend it. I also tried their beef empanadas. They were excellent. They're fried to order and homemade. There's a lot of filling and the beef inside is perfectly seasoned. The last time I had empanadas this good was at my Puerto Rican friend's house where his grandma made them! A close second was in Rincon, Puerto Rico. These are that good. They're a must try. This a lovely local neighborhood corner takeout restaurant. You can call ahead to order your food to avoid the the wait. The owner and staff are all very friendly and happy to answer any questions and provide recommendations. They have a tv in the waiting area and some drinks for sale. Inside is very clean and everything looks new and well organized. The food all homemade and delicious. Portions are very generous and a great value for what the charge. I'm looking forward to trying more of their food. I highly recommend it! It's definitely worth a trip to check it out. Support your local restaurants.

    From the owner: Authentic Spanish, Puerto Rican, food great tasteread more

    La Taqueria is a small, neat and clean Mexican/Guatemalan place off route 206. They've a good menu…read morewith most of the usual suspects on it, and they're located next to a small market where you can pick up a bag Cacahuates Japoneses to enjoy on the drive home. Service is friendly and efficient. Orders are made at the counter, or, dare you dare, via QR codes located at the table. Parking is limited, and because it's located between two one-way streets, it can be tricky coming in to or leaving. The Sopes at La Taqueria are a must to try. They're heavily ladened with tasty toppings, and I'd order them again in a heartbeat. The chorizo sope was especially good, and had enough chorizo on it to make two Sopes. Be forewarned that you will not have clean hands after eating them. On another visit I tried the fish tacos. Fish tacos at La Taqueria are the chopped/shredded variety rather than the deep fried filet version. The tortillas themselves were heated well, but were nothing special, nor was the flavor of the fish itself anything remarkable. I expected something more interesting from the place. On the flip side, I also tried a Taco de Tripa, asking for it to be cooked crisp (Tripa in Mexico is pork chitterling, not tripe) and it was very, very (feel free to insert more verys) good, and is definitely a taco I'll try again and again. During our most recent visit, we had the Enchiladas de Pollo en Mole, which brought four enchiladas in a deeply flavored mole with rice and beans. The mole was not sweet like so many other moles in other area restaurants, but was instead relying heavily on the flavors of the chiles. It was very tasty, and a nice change from the usual sweet moles. We also had an excellent Huarache de Lengua, a thick, oval tortilla ladened with beef tongue. I have a feeling my wife will be ordering it each time we return. In addition, we ordered a bowl of the Sopa de Panza y Pata, a soup with a spicy broth and loaded with cow's hooves and tripe. It was a meal in itself, and was also served with rice on the side along with some thick corn gorditas. I was torn between four and five stars here, and if the fish tacos hadn't been such a bust, they'd probably have gotten that fifth star. La Taqueria is definitely in the top tier of local Mexican/Guatemalan restaurants, and will be part of our regular rotation going forward.

    Really delicious Mexican food, we got fajitas, guac, chips and salsa and queso. The shrimp and…read moresteak were really tasty, steak was soft, shrimp was not overcooked. Tortillas seemed to be homemade and thick, loved everything! Visiting the area for work so won't be back here but I am glad we stopped by and got to eat here. The food came out quickly and cashier was very nice!

    Holy God, Almighty, where do I even start? This is hands-down the best place to eat if you need to…read moregrab something on your lunch break in Trenton. Immediately when you walk in, it's clean, it's spacious, it has plenty of seating. You have plenty of space with your dishes when you go to sit down. You can look out the window and enjoy your lunch. The food... my God the food. I can't wait to come back here again. I will say they give you enough to last you to the next lunch day lol. But I will be coming back with updates when I try more things here. I got the steak platter and all the ingredients are so fresh, it's so well-made. Nothing tastes old, the flavors are amazing. I really have nothing bad to say. I will say the only hiccup is the workers don't really speak English, however, they do provide you with the phone so they can translate what you're saying, which is great. I waited an appropriate amount of time for dish like this and will be telling everyone I run into about this place. It's peaceful, the music is calming. You're not overly loud like a lot of these restaurants. It's clean, and the food is great! I found my new lunch spot. Update: went back the next day with my leftovers from my previous visit. Decided to try the beef empanada with the sauce that I missed the first day. Some kind of cilantro not spicy sauce. Also got the tres leches. Hands-down the best tres leches I've ever had in my life. And when I tell you that sauce puts the empanada over the edge. That's exactly what it needed. I will be coming here all the time!

Also ordered their empanada pabellón, cheese, black beans, chicken and maduro. Note that it's a corn masa so it's gluten free and so so delicious I'm definitely coming back. I ordered on the phone and when I walked in 15 minutes later my food was ready. Service is fast and friendly. Cute decor and you can sit on your lunch break.
