El Azteca. The Aztec. A civilization which rose to and held power for centuries. Their leadership,…read morein some indirect fashion, has led to the craftsmanship of El Azteca - A slight chain of Mexican restaurants in a 30 min radius of Bergen County. I will copy and paste this review across the Park Ridge and Mahwah locations so emphasize my appreciate for their consistency in providing great Mexican food. If you are consistently performing, Linguini will take care of you. Like I've taken care of many others. I will bring you to the top with me. If you backstab me. Oh if you come for me at the top, you will reach an abyss so deep you may end up digging to China. Don't test me. I'm not that guy. Anyways, I've tried a lot from Azteca. Most of what they've got is a 4/4.5 out of 5 but I'm rounding up for the full experience. Phenomenal price point. Variety of food that all comes out well. Performs well in restaurant and when the food travels. Friendly staff. And local business of which I support. I suffer from GGS - Good Guy Syndrome, sorry not sorry. My motha, bless her soul. I legit mean bless her soul. Be nice. Pray. Bow down to her. She doesn't eat much food but she even loved the taco salad here so much that she asked to go again. So much protein, so well seasoned. Just as their other options showcase as well. My personal favs are the Kash Burrito and the, what I'd call "trademark" Cod Burrito. Never have seen it elsewhere like this. The wrap is toasted wonderfully, great rice, great salsa. I mean this place just does it real well. I've had tacos, appetizers, desserts. Never let down. El Azteca is consistently good. Constantly pushing out quality product. Is it the best Mexican I've had? No. But it's the most underrated. Being a consistent 4, makes you a five in my books. It's like that girl that's occasionally a 6 or occasionally an 9... you can't bring her home. But that girl that's consistently a 7 or an 8? You let her meet the fam. I don't where I'm going with this one. All I'll say is STOP. Stop going to Chipotle, Bubbakoo's, etc. when you could be supporting a better quality and friendlier priced location in El Azteca. Thank you in advance. I will be watching - LB.

I took the train up one day, but unfortunately I didn't revisit the town for another 17 years. My Mexican House was a random stop that turned out to be great. I've always been into tacos and in recent years gained a nearly dangerous fascination with cemitas, and a result I may have missed out on many great Mexican entrees over the years. In the chuleta a la diabla, the pork chops were perfectly done and the sauce was an awesome incendiary concoction somewhat like mole. The chips were warm and fresh, the salsa was zingy and the service was outstanding.

We immediately ordered four margaritas, which were good, just not the best ones I've ever had. For appetizers we all split the cheese empanadas, which were actually pretty amazing in my opinion. The portions were pretty generous, so all of us were able to have about 1.5 empanadas. The empanadas were served with red and green sauce, the red sauce is SPICY so be aware! For main course, I ordered the vegetarian chimichanga which I LOVED. It was so good and it tasted freshly made. Overall, was very happy with my experience here. Its not the fanciest restaurant but it was perfect for national margarita day!

But the food needs work , the chips and salsa were good , we ordered the fresh made guacamole made at the table was also good but ,Missing seasoning, lime juice and some type of chopped cilantro. I ordered the #4 steak fajitas . I was disappointed peppers were cut to thick, and needed more roasting so where the onions almost raw , it all needed more seasoning and roasting. The Mexican rice was bland , tasteless no sofrito and , missing seasoning the refried beans were ok ..My wife didn't like the taco salad it had cucumbers something you never put in a taco salad even the tomato slices were thick cut , she only liked the shell Lol.My son in-laws fried fish was good he liked it , and my sons chimichanga were also taste less compared to many others he has had elsewhere. We did like the drinks the service was ok but we had to wait some time before-our waiter came by . For sure in need of more waiters, and waitresses, I know good Mexican food , this one needs some work , I don't believe I will visit again on less they up their business.

The staff were incredibly kind, attentive, and prompt, which we really appreciated--especially during the holidays. The menu had a good variety of options, and the drinks were definitely a highlight; well-made and enjoyable. The food itself was good, but it felt like it was missing that extra punch of flavor that would've made it stand out. With a bit more seasoning or boldness, it could easily be elevated to the next level. The ambience was nice and comfortable, making it a good spot for a group gathering or a relaxed night out. Overall, a decent experience with great service and drinks, and some room for improvement when it comes to flavor.

The grilled chicken tacos are a nice, healthier option, and the alcohol-free Corona continues to be a big plus. I'm always met with pleasant, kind servers here. The service is typically slow, even on quieter nights, but the location on a busy corner makes for a nice atmosphere. I haven't been during a full or busy night yet, but I'd like to try it sometime--especially when there's live music. Churros - thick and delicious!

We came on cinco de mayo which was hectic but sat at the bar to begin and then were able to get a table within 10-15 minutes. I ordered the strawberry jalapeño margarita with tajin and it was perfectly sweet and spicy. My boyfriend ordered the perfect Cadillac margarita and loved how refreshing it was. We ordered the special Al pastor tacos to start which were delicious I wish it came with more than 3 tacos. For our meals I had the enchiladas verdes as that's always my favorite meal and you can't go wrong with a classic. The chicken was tender and well seasoned inside the enchiladas. The chimichangas were delicious they were entirely eaten with no leftovers! Pricking is fair and they prefer cash to credit card with a slightly cheaper price as well. It is a much smaller restaurant but cozy and inviting. Parking is street parking in suffern and it's either hit or miss getting a spot.

Sangria's has been a go-to for us for years for good tapas and sangria, but we've now had issues on…read moreour last two visits, and this most recent one was especially frustrating. The food is still great. We had scallops, chorizo, brussels sprouts, and a flounder ceviche special. Everything was delicious. The ceviche in particular stood out -- fresh, well-portioned, and nicely "cooked" in lime juice. The sangria is still a highlight too. A big carafe, no ice watering it down, served with glasses full of fruit. The problem is the service. They had two servers and one bus person, and it showed. Everyone seemed to be scrambling, and it was hard to get a moment of attention to ask for anything or even be heard. Our food came out in pieces -- three items, then a long delay, then another. The last dish, calamari, never came. When I tried to tell the waiter we didn't want it anymore if it was forgotten, he didn't listen and insisted on bringing it anyway. We ended up waiting even longer, which just made the experience more frustrating. To top it off, they're now adding an operating/service fee (around 3-4%), which wasn't clearly communicated and just showed up on the bill. It's disappointing because the food is still very good, but the service issues -- and now the added fees -- are taking away from the experience. After this visit, we'll think twice before coming back.
