The hype is real!! As is the price! $2 tacos and they're delicious! I love me a hole in the wall. We spent less then $30 on a full appetizer, entree and drinks! I think this place Would take off if they added a bar. But for now I appreciate the casual vibes of it. The waiters were kind and attentive. I will return!

Waitress put 6 ppl when in reality is was just 4 ppl ... be careful with your receipt

I realized this waitress scammed us because she lied saying it was 6 ppl when it was only 4... I don't like that they force the tip by lying. MEXICO DELI

There's no special "Taco Tuesday deal" because there's no need to when Tacos are $2 everyday except the Birria ones which are about $14 for 4. There is a self ordering machine with pictures and prices or you can just order directly from the nice lady at the front. Their tacos are pretty authentic with a lot of locals there for their tacos and other varieties. Total worth it and they come out fast which as well. Not much nearby but there's street parking for 20 mins per quarter. Their horchata has just the right amount of cinnamon and sweetness.

I've been coming to this restaurant for over 5 years and will continue to come back. It is a casual authentic Mexican food spot with delicious tacos for an amazing price. All the tacos are delicious but my favorite is the al pastor and chorizo. The green salsa is amazing and add a little bit of red salsa for an extra kick. I tried the pozole for the first time this visit. It was warm, delcious and had a deep yet clean broth perfect for the cold weather. I've tried their tostadas, echiladas, and agua frescas. Their horchata and in the summer the watermelon drink is my favorite as well. The servers are kind and the restaurant gets very packed. Parking is a little difficult but the tacos keep me coming back. I've also called ahead or ordered online for pick up and my experiences were smooth as well.

$2.00 tacos and you can not go wrong by these authentic tacos . I got 4 steak tacos . Great flavor and good amount of meat within the taco . Served with a green sauce that has a little spice to it and lime on the side too . I love coming here especially with great prices . I highly recommend. Come try and you can mix and match in one order which is a plus .

Excellent food and service. The tacos are only $2 - they are super tasty and better than most $5 tacos in Manhattan. I also love their tostadas. The chips and salsa were complimentary and the restaurant has a fun vibe.

Food is always good here, plenty of options to choose from, tacos are only $2 and they have food portions. Service is fair not that annoying waitress asking you every 3 minutes if you need anything else they are very attentive. Piñatas hanging from the ceiling and Mexican paintings on the wall, music and a good atmosphere. Parking is a nightmare you will have to park a little far unless you get really lucky and get a spot on the block, also there's always cars double parked they are picking up to go orders and just run inside to get something fast.

I found this place on Yelp because the $1.50 tacos caught my eye. So, we ordered a bunch of tacos for pick up on a Friday at around 5 pm. The tacos are now $2, but that's still really cheap. It's almost Mexico City prices, so can't complain there. It seems like an authentic Mexican place because they had more than just your standard chicken, beef, and chorizo. They had all the offals, which is rare to see - especially at this price. We had the al pastor, lengua, buche (pork stomach), cabeza, tripa, suadero. Most of the tacos were fine, though the suadero was dry. The al pastor was good but some pineapple could have put this over the top. But the star of the show was the tripa. I think they must fry it or something, because there were crispy bits in it, which really made the taco. At least, we thought it was tripe since we couldn't really tell what was what just by looking - but came to tripe as a process of elimination. I'll be back to make sure it indeed was the tripe, and next time, I'll be trying the ear, and pork skin tacos! Tip - they don't tell you this, but if you use credit card, there's a processing fee - which I found out after the fact.

Baby let me tell you this, Mexico restaurant is a gem. GO THERE NOW. Immediately and urgently. The servers are so kind, the food is delicious; and the cost is literally a no brained. I had about 5 different types of tacos-- I can't even beefing to describe how tasty they were. PLEASE GO.

Oi W.

This is the best Mexican restaurant in North Jersey! So many choices of tacos and very hard to find kinds. It feels like grannies are making them with centuries old recipes. We had: Cueritos - Pig Skin - this was interesting, I did like the gelatinous texture but i would have prefer it to be more tender Cabeza - Head meat - OMG it's so tender and delicious! Our favorite!!! Buche - Pork Stomach - it was ok, I've had better Suadero - meat from between the belly and the leg - this was tender and really good Al Pastor con Pina - this was good but I would not have the pineapple next time :D Lengua - Tongue - it was ok Tripa - Cow Stomach - this was good

The. Best. Tacos. Period. I literally am fighting the urge to NOT write this review, because I have waited so long to keep this place a secret. But it's out. And here it is. DOLLAR TACOS. The place is authentic Mexican. Not at all like that gaudy Tex Mex place you know that gave you gas that one time. No. This is the mother load, where sweet tendrils of pork and beef meet the sweet spot in your wallet. You can get everything from Al Pastor tacos (season pork) to bistec (beef) for a dollar. Do you hear me? A dollar! So next time you're broke, just call in and order for pick up. They also have the eat in option, but people never want to leave 'cuz they're so busy eating tacos... So if you understand that struggle, plan accordingly. They have a guy who speaks English, just in case you guys freak out on the phone lol. All in all, great place, stop by for a taco or two or seven. I won't judge. You'll probably see me eating in the corner too. read more

Great experience with their tacos. Went with 1. Al Pastor 2. Bistec(steak) 3. Chorizo; all for a Dollar each! The red sauce is a lot more spicer but I dumped both of them in. Overall out of the 3 tacos I loved the "Al Pastor". very well seasoned and tasty! Chorizo was my least favorite but wasn't all that bad! I would be coming back next week for more! read more

I used to come here once a week. Food is always great and the wait is not long at all. It has been a couple months since I went and figured it was time. I sat down with a friend. Waited but no one came. I see the new guys eyeing us but not coming to our table. After 15mins I finally called them. Guy took our order and all was happy. I saw that it was a busy day so I didn't mind. There were a lot of take outs also. But as soon as I saw atleast 4 other groups get their food before us even though we got there way way before them. (At this time we've been waiting for our food about 40mins now) I felt something was wrong. I called our waiter and he kept saying "one minute". Then I finally asked the guys making the tacos. Our order was never put in. We waited so long for food that wasn't even coming. I love this place and will probably come back again, but it was very disappointing. I never had a bad experience, but today everything bad that could happen, all happened in one experience.p read more

Dinner with my little brother who loves tacos almost as much as I do, went incredibly well here. We had 14 tacos, 2 sodas, guacamole with chips and only paid 22 dollars. The tacos are so cheap but that does not reflect the quality. They were delicious and full of flavor, especially the El Pastor tacos. The chicken tacos are awesome, even more so if you add lime and the verde (green) sauce. The only downfall is the very crowded seating arrangement. read more

Awesome tacos for only $1 each. My dad has come here a lot and I'm glad he took us here. He ordered me two chorizo, a carnitas and al pastor tacos. They were all cooked well and were so juicy and the hot sauce was great. We ordered horchata too. The sopes for 3 were about $8 which I thought wasn't expensive either, and the avocado was fresh and my sister ate them in a second. Everything here was great, I'll definitely be coming back. The place isn't too small, it's Passaic so parking sucks, n the place was packed for a bit, but definitely worth the wait to eat in. I love Mexican restaurants because of the way they decorate inside and this one even had little piñatas hanging around. The waitresses were very friendly as well, even though they were really busy.

I love this place. Such a famous place in Passaic county and its name stretches over to other parts too and that's for a reason. I wish I could give them more than 5 stars. You have to order their tacos al pastor and try some of them with pineapple chunks; a very traditional style of tacos. Best thing of all is that mostly every taco is $1 each and they are heavily filled with meat. I normally order about 6 or 7 and leave this place full and happy! read more

How have i not reviewed this place yet? My first time at this place was on cinco de mayo of this year. Plenty of people but my friend told me it was worth it. She is Mexican and told me this is as authentic as it gets. I had about 6 tacos that day and have been hooked ever since. They are $1 tacos by the way..yes thats right $1 tacos. Now I go back a few times a month and get steak and chicken tacos. Im currently trying to break my record of 8 tacos consumed in one sitting and do 10. My parents love this place and the quesadillas are pretty good too. Its amazing that I get a bottle of water with 8 tacos and its only about $10. Cheap date or if you want a fast and cheap lunch then this is your place to go. Did I mention that the tacos are only $1 each? read more

Their locale is nice and you get your order made to order in 10 minutes. If you're in a hurry, you should call ahead for pickup. I usually get full with just $5... Unless I binge on Chips and Guac.

Rice, beans, chicken, cheese, cream, Pico de gallo, with some cactus and onions. All that for $9. Niceee. The prices are good. And the other reviewers were right...that green sauce is good.

The owner was super friendly and we had a few laughs as he shared about why he had started the biz. The two local crossing guards were hanging having a cup of coffee before heading to their corners. The pricing was worth the sandwich. I was very pleased with the service and sandwich. Looking forward to stopping in again soon.

We finally made it this past weekend to Vinnie's Mootz for one of their special tasting menu…read morenights, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. If you're expecting a typical dinner, think again. The tasting menu featured around 12 courses, and by course ten I was completely full--but somehow still excited for what was coming next. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared, packed with flavor and very tasty. For me the standout of the night was the very first dish which was Vinnie's homemade mozzarella with tomatoes, which was so good that we even bought some fresh mozzarella to take home. The meatballs were also outstanding, and the steak and eggplant course was another highlight. After all that food, finishing with a cannoli just felt like the perfect ending. The atmosphere is casual and inviting, but the food is every bit as good as what you'd find at restaurants that cost a lot more. Live guitar music throughout the evening added to the experience created a nice vibe. My only suggestion would be maybe to turn it down a notch or two as it was a little hard to hear others at our table. Still a very nice touch though and all songs you would know. I always like it when a chef comes out of the kitchen, especially at a tasting menu, and Vinnie came out several times to chat with guests which was very nice. It just added a personal touch and showed how much pride goes into both the food and the overall experience and we got to hear his back story. This tasting menu is an incredible value and a great way to try dishes you might not normally order. Just remember to come hungry--and maybe skip lunch beforehand. If you can get a reservation for one of these tasting nights, don't hesitate.

The most amazing delicious authentic tacos ever. Usually 1 dollar each unless you choose a speciality meat etc or add different toppings. It's a newly renovated restaurant. Parking sucks in this area but we'll worth looking for one. I would suggest calling your order in so when you park you can run in and pay and pick up. They accept cash or card. They have the regular Mexican drinks such as agua de jaimaca..... So much deliciousness. Food is very fresh. Meat is cooked to perfection. The vegetables they use is always fresh. Very clean. You will thank me later for giving this place a try..... read more

Clean restaurant, nice family type of place... Great prices however food is a bit bland in taste but still passes especially if u r hungry... However my bad experience was that my waiter SUCKED!!! I had to remind her FOUR times for my daughters quesadilla!! By the time she finally brought it out we had already fed them from our tacos and asked for the quesadillas to go! And the worst part of the story.... There were only about 4 tables and 3 waiters!!! So minus 2 stars for the bland food and that bad waitress ... Will be back maybe i will get another waitress next time! read more

Authentic mexican tacos! I loved this place. If you're looking for good and cheap tacos this is the place to go. I was here on a Sunday and it was packed so that meant we had to wait half an hour to be seated. There were also mariachi who charged $20 to sing 3 songs per table (this is of course optional). But the wait was worth it because I loved our tacos and all their beverages as well. I gotta say though their options are very basic so if you're looking for something a little more rare you probably won't find it here. read more

Hands down the best authentic Mexican food in Passaic, NJ. The price, the quality and variety of the food is second to none. I've personally worked here in the past, when they first opened, so I know the kitchen is held to a high standard of cleanliness, which still holds true today. Therefore, if you have cravings for tacos, tortas, tamales or their freshly made "Aguas". This is the ONLY place to satisfy that hunger. read more

I go there Sunday mornings for their tamales. $1 apiece fresh out of the kitchen and as good as they come. Excellent coffee for $1 also. If I wasn't so hooked on their tamales I would try one of their egg dishes which look quite interesting. There are only 2 small tables so this is pretty much take out. read more

The tacos are authentic, simple, no frills, and soooo good. Also, can't beat the price at 4 tacos for $12. The tacos might look small but they pack in the meats! And the meats have been melding in a cauldron the whole day. Im full by my 4th taco but always stretch it to 5 tacos bc i want one more. My husband can eat 8 to 10. The tacos are topped off with onions and cilantro (you can get them without). Tacos also come with these cambray onions that have been hanging out in the cauldron with the meats all day -- The best accompaniment to the tacos. I get excited for those cambray onions. They also give you a little baggie of radish and limes, plus green sauce and red sauce. The green sauce is mild spicy and the red sauce is very spicy. We've been here about 20 times just this year. In the beginning we used to get a variety of tacos, which were all really good (but sometimes the beef and chicken tacos were a little dry), but now we only get the al pastors and the carnitas -- Tip: ask for a mix of pork in the carnitas -- makes it even better! Great to pick up a huge order if you're doing a potluck or hosting, too. We've also eaten at their old location and this new location (they relocated to a larger spot). There's plenty of seating and they keep everything clean -- please note that this is not a fancy restaurant! Parking situation is not the greatest, though, but you'll eventually find street parking. Service is always good and quick. Even if there's a huge line, it goes by fairly quick.

We originally wanted to try the oreja and campechanos but they didn't have it that day. These are probably the best quesabirria tacos I've had in the area. I'm normally not a huge fan because it usually ends up being soggy, and I don't really like braised meat, as it tends to be dry. That wasn't the case here. The tacos were still crispy 20 minutes later, and the meat wasn't dry. It was stuffed to the max with beef and cheese. The broth was also very good and not watery like most other places tend to be. The al pastor tacos and lengua tacos were also very good. They're a bit smaller than similar taco spots in the neighborhood but it's quality over quantity here. If they added fresh pineapple to the pastor, it would have brought the taco over the top. I also enjoyed their homemade (sauces). They have a kick to it but be careful with the dark chipotle looking one. One drop of that, and you'll be good. Will definitely be back for some more tacos. Hopefully next time, they'll have the oreja and campechano.

One poor guy came in just after me to order a chicken soup and was still waiting there after I left - even though I'm sure their soup is already pre-made. I also saw them microwaving something, so that was another red flag. I was wondering why our total was $90, but I just figured maybe the menu prices were outdated? After all, $1 tacos (according to their menu) in this day and age does sound too good to be true. We ordered: 3 al pastor tacos, 1 chicken taco, 1 chicken tinga taco, 1 steak taco, al pastor quesadilla, chicken tinga quesadilla, grilled chicken platter, beef tostada, and quesabirria. It turns out that the quesadillas come with three per order, which wasn't specified because we definitely did not need three of each of these. Had we known, we would have ordered less food. None of it was very good. Everything kind of just tasted the same. A little bland, dry, and chewy. The tortillas in the quesadillas were also dry and chewy. I didn't even bother with the chicken from the grilled chicken plate because it looked really tough. Maybe that's what they were microwaving in the back. Nothing really tastes fresh and just tastes like they make one giant batch at some point and use it throughout the week.
