I thoroughly enjoyed their skirt steak fajitas entrée tonight. The medium rare skirt steak was cooked to perfection. Very tender & tasty. The entire dish was not only well prepared but had plentiful portions of beans & rice as well. My requested substitute of zucchini for peppers was also appreciated. Worthy of a return trip! read more

What a cool place as soon as you enter you feel like your in Mexico. The staff is great, we had a table for 13 without any errors. All the food was delicious from street corn to the fajitas all fresh and hot. I will be back read more

Food: Solid fajitas! Refried beans could be smoother; guac is good; pico is good flavor; cheese sauce/dip was too loose not enough substance, wouldn't recommend Service: this is a mom and pop shop, family run so go for the food to support local business; staff is nice Ambiance: no frills, clean, colorful read more

Great Place!! Stopped here for lunch as I met the owner at a food show. The staff is very friendly. I placed my order and waited inside. I took a few pictures as I was very intrigued on how beautiful it was . Got my food and ate in right in my car!! Could not wait ! Great presentation ! I loved that it had lime, radishes, green sauce, and 3 filled beef hard shell tacos.. lettuce, sour cream ..etc I will definitely bring my family here for dinner on a nice summer night!! read more

Came upon this place by Yelp reviews. This restaurant is located in a strip mall so there is plenty of parking. Walked in and got seated quickly, decor is of a typical Mexican restaurant. husband and I started with mixed nachos oh so good! I had the mixed fajitas and my husband had the Snapper Veracruzano. Both are dishes were fantastic and great portions. I want to give a shout out to our great server Daniel he was great! The best part is this establishment is BYOB!! read more

New Jersey is a treasure trove for good and cheap Mexican food. We discovered this restaurant thanks to the trusty yelp app when nearby Deninos had an hour wait. They accommodated our party of 6 easily on a Friday evening. Next time this restaurant will be our go to from the start. Mexitacos has delicious steak dishes including the ribeye my son had as well as the combination ny steak with chicken enchiladas platter I enjoyed. Both were priced very reasonably in the mid $20's. A couple of friends enjoyed the mixed fajita and it looked and smelled delicious. A must try next time for us. Mexitacos features byob, friendly service and a nice environment as well. Ample parking too. Great find for me thanks to yelp. read more

This was my first time visiting this place. The food was decent overall. I ordered a steak burrito--while the meat was flavorful, it had very few beans, and the tortilla was a bit too thick, which made it hard to really enjoy the filling. On the bright side, the rice was tasty, and the guacamole was also really good. read more

The staff were very friendly, my waitress was very attentive and kind! & the restaurant looked beautiful. However, the food was not good. I ordered a carne asada chimichanga which tasted very...frozen like? The beans did not taste fresh, it tasted like it came straight from a can and had no seasoning. The rice was also flavorless and reminded me of minute made rice. The beef did not have a preferable taste. We were served salsa and chips as well which I would give a 1/10. The salsa tasted like straight marinara sauce. Not sure if they had run out that night but we were served marinara sauce instead of salsa. The chips were not good either. I'm not sure if they were made fresh but the texture and taste wasn't very good, maybe a bit undercooked. As for the plantains, they came out hot which was nice but it didn't have that soft texture throughout the bites I was hoping for. Overall, I didn't have a good experience with the food and flavors, I believe it was overpriced for the quality served. The staff and atmosphere were great though! read more

Very lively restaurant! I was surprised by how busy it was. The service is pretty fast and the food was good too. I got veggie enchiladas and was able to have the zucchini removed which was nice. The complimentary chips were good but the salsa was puréed tomatoes from a can of seemed. I was not a fan of the taste. read more

Food good. Service ehhhh. Takes 20 mins to get drinks. Refills not offered to you, have to ask. Needs better proactive service and will be great. read more

I have ordered from here for delivery many times because their food is always very good, very fresh and delicious. I've tried their chimichangas, quesadillas, grilled chicken, tacos, Carne Asada and other steak platters. Their tres leches cake is amazing. I keep going back because it's consistently delicious. Lots of food (I can never finish it) and reasonably priced. So glad they're close by! read more

Very glad I gave this place another chance. The first time we were there, only about 10 tables were occupied, but it still took 20 minutes for our food to come out. This time I went earlier in the day and my order was out within five minutes. The seatbacks or the chairs are beautiful. I like that there were free refills on the drinks. I like that very thin, nacho chips and salsa were served almost immediately as well as the drinks. The only odd thing was that there was music playing that would stop (cut out) every 10 seconds or so, but staff was kind to turn it down when I voiced a concern. read more

Love this place! I go every often with friends and family. It has a very authentic taste, and I am in love with the fresh queso. I usually get the carne asada, but the chicken fajitas and the quesadillas are also super tasty. Service was speedy, and they give you a complementary chips and salsa. The restaurant is very cute and cozy. Gets pretty packed during dinner time so try to go early! read more

I have been wanting to try this place for a long time because I can't really find good Mexican food in this part of New Jersey. This place did not disappoint! The inside is not that big but the tables are spaced out. They come out with chips and salsa for the table. The steak fajitas were good and were sizzling upon arrival. One thing I notice is that this place doesn't have their liquor license because I didn't see any alcoholic margaritas. They need to get that license because then this place would get busy! read more

We ordered fajitas and quesadillas and really enjoyed both dishes. They had crunchy freshly made chips too. My daughter especially liked the shrimp quesadillas. I would strongly recommend this take out experience. read more

Forgot the queso and frijoles on my torta but it's ok everything else was yum id definitely order again

Food was delicious. We got the Fajitas Mixtas and Combo Fajitas and they were some of the best I've had. Meat was cooked perfectly and seasoned well. Service is always great and quick. Horchata here is also very good. read more

Stopped in on a recommendation from a friend, and I was happy we did. The service was very good and the restaurant was clean. I had the Carnitas burrito which was very tasty. I asked for No guacamole, crema or sour cream. I'm a plain Jane and was very happy with my meal. I had leftovers for the next day! My friend said she loved her chicken chimichanga and would order it again. They were very accommodating with my request for only rice instead of beans. I would definitely return. read more

We came here on a Saturday night and did not need reservations. We ordered wings for an appetizer, and the shrimp tacos and steak enchilada. The wings were actually quite delicious! They were spicy and sweet, and very crunchy. I would recommend these wings to anyone who is a wing fan! As for the shrimp tacos and enchilada, they were both very mediocre. The shrimp taco was lacking flavor, and the enchilada did not have enough cheese. As well, the steak was over cooked and a bit chewy. They have outdoor seating, but it is very small, and you are basically in a parking lot. There are so many Mexican restaurants out there- I would make a pass on this one; unless you want really good wings! read more

Ordered dinner for my family of 4 last Friday night and picked up. We had the steak burrito, chicken quesadilla, Cuban sandwich and taco assortment. In addition we ordered chips and salsa as well as yuca fries. Prices were on the higher side- but that's everywhere right now. Overall, we were pleased with the portion size and how flavorful and fresh the dishes were. We will be returning! Pay cash to support local businesses & because it not you'll will be paying a credit card fee! read more

Mexitacos Restaurant and Grill - Cuban Sandwich- what a beaut! - Mexican Near Me - Matawan, New Jersey

With the word "taco" in their name, you would expect their tacos to be the highlight of their menu. However, I was a bit disappointed. I got a Shrimp taco, Blackened Tuna taco, and Mahi Mahi taco. I wanted juicy, flavorful, seafood tacos, but what I got were bland, conservatively portioned, little tacos. They did not taste fresh, the fish was overcooked, and there was not enough meat. I would not recommend the seafood here, but I tried my girlfriend's Skirt Steak Chimichanga and it was good. The guacamole was okay. It could have used a bit more seasoning. We also shared a Horchata, which we both enjoyed. The chips and salsa were free, but I just had to note that it tasted like they took a can of tomato sauce and seasoned it... but it was free. The service was at least good and the space was clean and vibrant. The decor is a bit gimmicky, but fun. As long as you don't get seafood, this place is okay, but my food was not good read more

Delicious food, decent prices and large portions. Try the skirt steak! I would've given five stars but the service was quite slow. read more

Good was delicious and service was excellent! It had a beautiful ambiance...I felt like I was on vacation in Cancun Mexico read more

A lot of food came with the order. Very good. I like the chips & salsa when you first get seated. I get the Tex Mex Burrito and it come with fries & broccoli. I usually save the other half for lunch and still full with eating the other half because there is a lot of meat it in!! Did they undergo new ownership within the last year or 2? Still good, no complaints. read more

People love Mexitacos because it's always busy wether it's take out or dine in. They are very generous with their protein in each dish. I don't find it to be authentic Mexican, but more Americanized Mexican. I wish they had a dish with mole sauce on the menu as I love a good mole sauce. Some dishes come with a weird cheese sauce on top, and I'd skip those dishes or replace it with their delicious green sauce. My favorite dishes I had thus far are the steak enchiladas and the steak chimichanga both topped with green sauce. The green sauce here is DELICIOUS! I also had the mixed fajitas platter. The meat had a lot flavor in the fajitas. I just wish it came with more sour cream and Pico de gallo. The only dish I didn't like here was the chicken burrito. It tasted more like an American sandwich wrap. It didn't have much flavor, and it wasn't even properly wrapped. I asked for it to be topped with Chipotle sauce, and they gave it to me on the side. The Chipotle sauce was good, but it had more flavor at other Mexican places. Maybe that was an off day. The rice and beans here are really good. The salsa they serve with the chips is horrible! It taste more like ketchup! Overall, Mexitacos is very good. I recommend Mexitacos in Matawan! read more

Chicken fajitas were delicious!! Loved that my beans and rice came on a separate plate (as pictured). I also appreciated that my meal came with plenty of tortillas, as I feel some places kinda skimp out on that. Good vibes and super lively, staff were nice and had a great time with friends! read more

Great food and amazing sauce Can improve on service Love to have more sauces and salsa read more

Our party of three went on an off hour between lunch and dinner to find the place mostly empty, but that was fine for us. Their chips and salsa was a good start. We added some guacamole, which was very good. The staff was friendly and attentive. We ordered the seafood mexitacos, chicken tacos and the chicken enchilada with green sauce. The seafood was well prepared and the asparagus spears grilled to perfection. The chicken dishes were also quite delicious. My only fault is a personal one. I found the refried beans a bit too watery for my liking, although the flavor was spot on. We enjoyed having a mostly empty dining room, but my companions said this place gets quite busy during regular meal times. I think I can see why as they present a nice meal. read more

I am so impressed with Mexitacos! I've only had their food for takeout but wow is it delicious and the portions are generous. I get the vegetable fajitas and the assortment of veggies is so great. It comes with white rice & black beans but I substitute red rice & pinto beans because pinto is THE bean. The cheese on top is bangin'. The grilled asparagus side is also a must-have. My husband loves the chicken fajitas. The chicken quesadillas are also great and generous with the meat. Overall Mexitacos is quickly becoming my new favorite go-to casual Mexican spot! read more
