My friend and I stumbled upon La Esperanza for dinner tonight while driving down 22…read more It was a cute little Mexican place. The menu was different than regular Mexican fare, but still delicious. I ordered a chorizo quesadilla and found it to be super delicious! My friend got a chorizo torts as well as a cup of Jamaica. He loved both. The waitress was very kind and helpful. Just a heads up though: the staff only speaks Spanish. Luckily I'm fluent.

Luckily I have no dietary restrictions but my Chorizo Burrito was ok at best. It lacked flavor and was mostly rice and veggies. We love Mexican food. We have several favorite local Mexican Restaurants. This particular establishment did not deliver on customer service, flavor, or value. It pains me to admit it, but it was a horrible experience all around.

Yummy, authentic tacos in downtown North Plainfield. It's always packed in here and I know why. The…read morefood really speaks for itself. The meat is fresh and cooked perfectly. The Birria tacos are really good!!! The chicken taco fell a little flat and was a bit bland but with the green salsa it was good to go. Food was definitely a little pricey. I ordered 3 Birria tacos, 1 chicken taco, chips & SMALL guac, and a jarritos soda and it came up to like $40. It was delicious though!

I asked about any lunch specials and the waitress said they didn't have any which I found very strange. I said no worries and ordered 2 pupusas and a canned soda. Pupusas were dry on the outside and mushy on the inside, not cheesy but mushy almost watery. I love pupusas and order them regularly, but left half of one uneaten. Also The waitress never once came to check up on me. Still left her a cash tip on a $10 bill and no "thank you, no ay muchas gracias, no que tenga buen dia"..nada de nada. I'm Latina and love eating at mom and pop places because the wait staff are warm and the ambiance feels like home to me. This restaurant does have a lot of bible verses on the walls maybe they should have focused on improving customer service and less on arts and crafts. Oh well, it was a miss for me.

We love Mexican cuisine so we thought we'd try this place, we were not disappointed. Horchata were refreshing, as well as the molcajete had a nice charred flavor that we didn't find at another Mexican restaurant. Very flavorful. The rice that came with it unfortunately was a bit bland. If that is the only negative I can live with it. It a gem we are glad we to have in our community!!! It's a cozy space with a few tables, it was very pleasant and clean. Having Latin music videos was also a nice touch to the overall experience. We would dine here again and try dishes they offer on their menu.

Luckily Freppe's makes it fun by serving up the margarita mix if you bring along the tequila. Done! Freppe's ended up being the perfect spot for a little lunch, and not just the DIY margaritas. We had perfect weather so sat outside on their patio, had a really lovely waitress taking our orders, and served up some pretty delicious food. I got the mahi mahi tacos and they were pretty great. Lots of fish and the verde salsa had so much flavor. I think the fish was just a bit overcooked, so I will probably try something else on my next visit, but still loved my meal. We got some churros for dessert and oooooh man they were good. Piping hot and filled with a caramel or dulce de leche sauce that was so tasty. Perfect cap to to a great meal. We'll be back! Some tips: They have a big parking lot in the back, and I will say it again, BYOB and have them turn it into margs for the table.

It was obviously freshly prepared and two of us shared a one pound portion for $20. Staff was super friendly, though they don't speak much English so if you don't speak Spanish don't get intimidated or avoid the place, just make sure you've got "Google Translate" fired up on your phone. Cozy, clean, not fancy -- primarily Guatemalan dishes but a few Salvadoran items, too. Parking was easy and inexpensive in the public lot right off of Watchung Ave. Downtown Plainfield doesn't look like much, but a lot of these little restaurants are really clean and pleasant and you get a lot of good food for really reasonable prices.
