The man at the front (I wish I got his name) was awesome. He was so friendly and even comped our diet coke and jarritos. We started with chips and guac. The portion of guac was so generous and it was so creamy and flavorful with the seasonings, tomato, and onion. I got a chicken burrito and it was the best burrito that I can remember having. It was a big portion and the sauces on top really made the dish. That avocado crema was amazing. We finished with a tres leches that had such bright flavors and a perfect texture. Ambiance is super casual and restaurant was very well heated. A great cozy spot for some amazing Mexican food!

It is important to note that the complimentary chips and salsa were good. Everything was good and I would suggest if someone was asking for something in the area, albeit I would run back here on a normal day.

It's okay though the food still has no flavor. Chorizo tacos taste like chef boyardee, chicken ones are chewy and over cooked, the pork chorizo is greasy, the port ones taste like canned tuna fish. If it was a cheap quick meal it would be one thing but the average taco is $2.5 -3 and paying $21 for probably the worst tacos of my life (and a $10 surcharge for left tuna fish tasting tacos) We were the only ones in the place and our food sat on the cash register counter longer than it took for them to cook it.

Though residing in a small former train station, it doesn't feel overly cramped, and the service was attentive enough to keep people moving. The meal itself felt a little over the top, with lots of flavors that didn't always meld well. We started with Nachos with Manchego Queso, which were not worth $18 even though the flavor was good. The order wasnt quite enough for two hungry people, though we also didn't opt for additional protein on top. We went with tacos for our main dish, and there we found the chicken to be the clear winner. The meat was hot, juicy, and complete with a hint of spice that brought the heat in all the right ways. Unfortunately, the brisket felt like the opposite experience, suffering from a sauce that had far too earthy of a flavor, which wasn't well-balanced with the cilantro that covered the meat. I needed to douse these ones in the spicy side sauce to make them palatable. Finally, we tried maize fries out of curiosity. I am no longer curious about corn fries - they were bland, with a texture and look of a French toast stick but with none of the satisfying taste. If I returned, I'd do it for drinks in the beautiful bar area. But when the drinks are done and it's time to eat, I'd recommend hitting the tracks.

For some of us, it might simply call for going out and getting tacos or even just preparing our own. Situated in the middle of a residential neighborhood in Roselle Park, this establishment is set inside a small corner suburban home where some of my colleagues decided on takeout, which came highly recommended. Upon arrival at Taqueria La Casita, or "The Little House Taqueria," we were confronted outside by the neon signage reading "Tacos Open" and Mexican flags, among other pieces of colorful decor. Greeted by the staff inside an un-air-conditioned cozy dining room decked out in its Mexican splendor with 4 tables. In the back, a colorful menu with nearly a dozen different types of tacos and an array of other dishes written by hand. We opted for individual orders containing 4 tacos with Shrimp, Chicken, Steak, and Pork. While waiting, we couldn't help but notice the trompo--the spinning, shawarma-adjacent log of marinated pork used for Al Pastor, which translates to "in the style of the shepherd." Originating in Puebla, this came at the hands of Lebanese immigrants during the 1930s. The tortilla itself was freshly made, of the corn variety. They were stuffed to the brim with meat prepared in front of us and served with cucumbers and lime. Fresh condiments of diced onion, cilantro, and avocado were separated in their own container, and all were needed. Various sauces accompanied in small containers, such as green, which was jalapeño-based; the darker red salsa was smoky from dried and smoked chipotle chilis; and neon orange, which was a sauce made from chili de arbol and tomato. The guacamole was absolutely delicious along with the chips, and we couldn't get enough. The portion was a healthy size. The service was fast; Maribel was friendly and accommodating. Authentic, fresh, and affordable--we can recommend this place.

The al pastor is hands down the winner (and bonus- you can actually see it rotating on a spit towards the front!). The shaved pork meat is both fragrant and flavor, and I love the sweetness with the pineapple. I also never had sliced cucumbers or grilled green onions served with my tacos before, but I actually loved them. I joked to my husband that I'd happily order a whole side of those grilled green onions again (which are actually offered on the menu as a side order!). The lady who served us was also very sweet. The restaurant isn't fancy by any means, but I'd happily come back again for the food.
