Ordered the chicken fajita $22 and the dish was a very generous portion. The place is also BYOB. Their fajitas were soft and I believe home made as they were. thicker texture and not all perfectly round which to me is a good sign. The beans and rice were a generous portion. It came out hot and fresh. You also get free tortilla chips with dip as you wait for your food. There is cash discount. read more

A Red Bank must try restaurant....Kitchen Tex-Mex has outstanding authentic Mexican food. Ample seating can accommodate a lot of guests so I wouldn't estimate you could always get a table. The menu is extensive so there are a lot of options and undoubtedly something for everyone. Guacamole and chips were fresh, when eating the salsa the green one is rather spicy so keep that in mind (we love spicy so it was perfect). Tacos as an option is great because you can get them all the same or mix it up and order fish, pork, shredded pork and or sausage. The meat is slow cooked and accompanied by melted cheese, onions, and cilantro.....the perfect combination to dance on your Palate. The fish taco was lightly breaded chunks of fish and was not in the slightest bit greasy. I would highly recommend you order a horchata drink....it's a non-alcoholic, sweet, and refreshing drink. Horchata is made by blending white rice and cinnamon sticks in water and letting them soak overnight. After the rice and cinnamon are discarded, the remaining liquid is then flavored with vanilla, sugar, and ground cinnamon.....a must try and a drink you will crave all the time. read more

Stopped by here for a quick bite. My waitress was sweet. And the decor was vibrant. I ordered the shrimp taco and it came it out quickly. The shrimp was flavorful. They also bring tortilla chips for starters with salsa. They provide a discount if paying with cash. A solid spot, would return here again to try their $2 taco special read more

I heard good things about this place from Instagram so I figured I'd give it a shot. I grabbed a couple friends and headed to Red Bank. We all had great meals, the food was super flavorful and the servers were very welcoming. It was a great stop for authentic Mexican cuisine. Kitchen Tex- Mex has plenty of seating and a family atmosphere to it. Our server made sure we got everything we asked for and more. Red Bank has some great spots and this is most certainly a hidden gem. read more

Delicious. Sweet waitstaff. Nice atmosphere! Excellent value on taco Tuesdays! We will return!

Kitchen Tex-Mex has excellent Mexican food (and also an all-day breakfast menu, because why not)! The tortilla chips and salsa are so delicious that it's hard not to fill up on them. Other favorites include the guacamole and vegetable fajitas. I've also had a salad before from here which was super fresh and lovely, especially with some avocado. The vibes inside are also wonderful- colorful, fun, and great service. It's also BYOB so pack a couple of margaritas and ask for some glasses! read more

Really great food and super nice people-oh , and great prices too. This place should become very popular.

It was like a day trip to Mexico. Cute place in the heart of Red Bank. Service was friendly and attentive. Let me start by saying I love fact that they serve hard shell tacos! Not many Mexican places do these days. The shells were very fresh and the steak meat was seasoned well and very tender. I also tried the chicken tacos and they were very good as well. The complimentary chips and salsa were excellent. I especially loved the green tomatillo variety. Spicy but not overwhelming. I will be sure to revisit this establishment for dinner. I'd like to try their fajitas. It's also a byob so bring your favorite bottle of tequila. Bottoms up! read more

Amazing food and service. We had the loaded nachos. Huge portion. Guacamole is homey and delicious. Dinners included tacos and camerones mexicana. Both were delicious. They are also BYOB. Definitely check it out read more

By far the best Mexican restaurant in red Bank great food great service very reasonably priced. I highly recommend it.

I've ordered from Carlos o'conners many times and enjoyed the food. With the name changing we decided to still give it a try assuming the food is probably still good...well we were WRONG! This was the worst Mexican I had in a long time. We ordered the beef and chicken empanadas. The beef tasted like old El Paso seasoning and the chicken was literally boiled chicken and that's it. I ordered the chicken chimichanga and it was awful... I couldn't even eat it. The chimichanga was sooo greasy it was sitting in oil. The inside was more boiled chicken.. no seasoning or sauce. The chicken was literally plain boiled chicken and it was wrapped with a little lettuce and tomato. My husband made the mistake of getting chicken tacos that included the same plain boiled chicken. Both dinners came with rice and beans... we ordered retried beans and got a side of Pinto beans. The rice had no flavor and was bright orange. The coloring was just off esp since it had no flavor. I was so disappointed... complete waste of money and barely ate dinner... read more

Food was delicious. Service was great. Can't wait to go back. We were there during the street fair for the first time and the food was wonderful. Fresh and delicious. read more

This is my go to Mexican restaurant. The food is exceptional and it is cooked old school by a Mexican family. My all time favorite is the bean burrito with chicken or steak, nachos mixtos, quesadillas, chicken or steak tacos and my all time favorite tortilla soup. I highly recommend this restaurant. The staff is friendly and always accommodating. read more

Walking in at 3, the place was empty. The server did a good job sitting me, answering my questions, and bringing chips and salsa. Red salsa was my favorite. Ordered chicken quesadilla, it came with rice, guac, and sour cream. Rice was good. Quesadilla was cheesy; which is good. Need to come back. read more

Had my wife's birthday party there and the service food and ambience were outstanding! The frozen margaritas were flowing all night, and all of the guests had an amazing time. Adalia is an amazing host! read more

This place is awesome! I come all the way from North Jersey to eat Mexican food here! The place has a really nice atmosphere. Nice decor. Very authentic and cute. The staff is so so so nice and they give excellent service every time. They are very caring and accommodating. The food is SOOOO GOOD! You can tell they put a lot of heart and love into their cooking and their salsas, especially the green one, are delicious! I highly recommend this place. It's my go-to every time I drive to South Jersey/Red Bank. Order the Mocajete! read more

If you like true tex-mex, this is not your place. Had 3 different types of tacos. All were dry. The burrito came with very little cheese and no sauce. Again, the inside seemed on the dry side. Will not be going back. read more

We had dinner here last night and it was phenomenal. Some of the best Mexican food I've had in Red Bank. The staff is incredibly friendly. This place is great. Highly recommended. read more

Mariachi recently took over the location that was Carlos O'Connor Mexican restaurant. The good news is that the new owners, chef, and staff are presenting quality and quantity Mexican food at reasonable prices. It is a BYOB, so right off you are saving money. They have kept the funky ambiance of Carlos. The location is in the heart of "hip" city, a short walk to shows at the Count Basie Theatre. Street parking with meters only until 6 pm, then free parking. read more

The best nachos hands down we've ever had. It a delicious BYOT that offers frozen mixes. Try the Cajun chicken and shrimp for a treat! Do not pass up this place, great food and great people. read more

The vegetarian tacos were just as described but this just didn't cut it for us. We used to go here when it was Carlos's...but this is not Carlos's. read more

Service was really nice and accommodating, ambiance a little lively just due to the number of people there and family friendly, and the food was delicious (saying that as someone who moved here from the west). What more could you want? :) read more

server was remarkably rude to my wife due to her having celiac, when my child accidentally spilled her drink the waitress rolled her eyes and handed us a rag and said "you can clean it". worst service I have ever seen in a restaurant. very disappointed read more

the birria tacos were incredible as well as the quesadillas and rice, they are my favorite tacos i've had in the area. the menu is well priced and they have specials on tuesdays. it's in a great location in downtown red bank. the service is also really good! read more

Can't believe that this place is in Red Bank for the quality of their food. Wouldn't go back to this place again

Open the door to Mexican knick knacks, colorful tablecloths and mariachi music on the stereo. The menu presents a small selection of gringo basics like quesadillas, fajitas and enchiladas. The servers were pleasant and attentive. But the food.... how is it that Mexican food could be made completely devoid of flavor. Literally everything - from the salsa to the main courses, even the rice and beans - was tasteless? The portions are generous so we walked out satiated.... in much the same way we would have been satiated if we had eaten a large plate of styrofoam topped with boiled chicken. Bottom line. It wasn't completely terrible. Probably a good place to go if you have small children in tow and are looking for something neutral, inoffensive and cheap plus lots of crayons. Searched some area reviews. Next time we come to Red Bank we will head to the west side. Tino's Mexican Kitchen with fire and wood smoke, a sizzling rotisserie turning out tender roast chicken licked by flame and soft tortillas? Or International Mexican Grocery for unforgettable tacos and a quartet of rainbow-hued hot sauces? Now that sounds yummy! read more

Very friendly service. Came here with my four year old daughter, was brought crayons and paper for her to draw. Server was attentive throughout. Ordered guacamole and chips, was delicious. Also ordered chicken fajita. Everything is well priced. Will definitely come back. read more

Felt like having Mexican food last night. Went into RedBank to go to Juanitos, but even though it was early, there was a long wait due to people going to the Count Basie. Looked on line quickly & found 'Mariachi' in the spot that use to be Carlos O'Conner's. Our lucky night. They brought salsa & warm chips to the table & it was so fresh tasting. My husband then had the enchiladas & I had the black bean burrito (you choose the meat), both served with a side of rice and your choice of refried beans or black beans. It was ALL wonderfully fresh & absolutely delicious! We will definitely be going back to Mariachi! (It's reasonably priced & BYO, too... always a good thing!) read more

At Mariachi, Everything was fabulous. We didn't need a reservation for 2 at 5:30 and it filled up quickly on a Friday night. The margaritas were excellent. the pork Gordita appetizer was excellent and our entrees were Masitas de Puerco (pork) and Carne Asada(flank steak ) both superb. Will go again! Thanks! read more

Excellent. Good service. Chicken tortilla soup was very good. Coconut chicken with mango habanero was also good. BYOB and the prices are good. read more

My fave little spot in Red Bank-the food is so fresh, delicious and affordable, the staff is lovely and attentive. My husband and I eat here twice a month. We crave it all the time! Can't say enough great things about this place! read more

Always tasty always great. Service is spot on. One of my favorite preshow places in Red Bank.

We ordered take out on Sunday. My daughter and I got chicken enchiladas which had absolutely no flavor whatsoever. The refried beans had no taste at all. My husband ordered a black bean burrito with chicken which also had no flavor. We all had the red rice - - no taste. To say we were disappointed is an understatement! read more

This place just wasn't that good. Service was fine, but the food wasn't tasty. Had the pulled pork appetizer and the chicken/beef tacos, and nothing was very flavorful. I wish we had gone to one of the better Mexican restaurants a few blocks away, by the train station. Those would be a very similar experience, but with better food, so I don't recommend this restaurant. read more
