    My Dinner
    Andrew A.

    I ate here yesterday September 23rd, 2023 between 10:30pm 11:15pm So I need to address the ELEPHANT in the room.....Was I served JOLLOF RICE?!! Because when I had seen my plate come out the kitchen... I won't lie i literally thought it was JOLLOF RICE... but after tasting it, I immediately knew it wasn't. But LET IT BE KNOWN SAN JOSE's RICE AND BEANS WAS PHENOMENAL! Perfectly cooked fluffy rice; beans was cooked amazingly! My chips and salsa tasted fresh and homemade so that was enjoyable! Now for the MAIN EVENT.... After a long day of mailman business and dropping off supplies at my family's spot. I was craving A WRAP OR SOMETHING SIMILAR WITH EXTRA CONDIMENTS(y'all know how I do). So I had to dig deep and remember I've eaten at this establishment before but never reviewed this place yet. I ordered the chicken and chorizo quesadilla (homemade corn tortilla)... FLAWLESS. The chicken was seasoned well balanced. Chorizo didn't taste like it was cheap packaged meat. Everything to my point of view was fresh and good quality. But I must say I'd wish the ratio of bread to meat. I would of preferred a bit more meat...but there is an option for that. Bathroom was decent.. overall the night was ended beautifully with a live performance from some local artist who was singing karaoke which was also beautiful. Yeah I was mostly paying attention to my late dinner but anyway. It was goood. It's all good. The staff were good. Food high quality made to order. Please support the locals !

    A gem! We started off with amazing salsa. The server was sooo kind and asked about my spice level and made sure I was all set

    A place where family is definitely welcomed! This space is generous with food, they have live karaoke, the waiters are very kind and professional. If you ask them to explain a dish they explain it and give you a heads up on the spice level. The staff is wonderful. The restaurant and vibrant, festive and the food is on the money. Even my god son loved it!

    This place deserves all the good reviews- Food is LEGIT!!! Service is super quick. Options are plenty and at very good prices- Tried their Tacos/ 3 mixed Flautas/Enchilladas all were good, will definitely come back. Very authentic mexican food

    Love this place! Always very friendly, fresh food, fun decorations. Nopales were delicious.

    Birria!!! Soooo Good
    Jeffrey A.

    Must have! I recently visited San Jose Restaurant and was thoroughly impressed with my experience. The Birria Tacos were amazing and the added touch of pineapple in the Jarritos made it a unique and delicious combo. The generous bowl of Consome was the perfect complement and set the stage for an unforgettable meal. The chips and onions with a sliced lime to start were also a great touch. The ambiance of the restaurant was warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a quick stop before the game since it's one block from Yankee Stadium or even for a night out with friends. Overall, I recommend them and can't wait to go back and try more dishes.

    Carne Asada Mexican Style Taco
    Sydney S.

    Delightful! They had a comfortable indoor seating area, really nice staff, and great food! I ordered the carne asada tacos, Mexican style! Not only were they DELICIOUS, the meal was super inexpensive. I actually walked over from the mall complex so if you need to park, that's a really close, reliable option. Highly recommend, especially for a midweek lunch!

    Mexican Style Tacos
    Agta B.

    Such delicious tacos! I love that they make it clear you can have Mexican style vs American style tacos. I loved the al pastor and the shrimp tacos. Too bad they were out of the fish because that's what I was craving. The rice and beans were on point. We ordered delivery and it was timely and still warm. Will have to go to the restaurant soon to try more delicious stuff. This place is great.

    Flan in the Cup
    Shirley S.

    Amazing hole in the wall close to the Yankee Stadium! Incredibly authentic. Get the burrito, it's flavorful, hefty, and fresh. The tacos were great as well, chicken was dry. Prices can't be beat. The service is friendly, and the interior is warm, casual, inviting. They have tres leches and flan for dessert as well so treat yourself!

    Rice and beans, quesabirria, shrimp tacos, veggie tacos, micheladas

    Discovered this restaurant after a search for restaurants near yankee Stadium. What a great find! The shrimp tacos and veggie tacos are outstanding. The salsa has a kick that hits the back of your throat. Highly recommended!

    Foodies that are willing to travel to the Bronx should consider SJR. They make a superb bistec burrito and the chips and guac are addictive.

Being…read morefrom California, I definitely missed the Mexican food scene, so I wanted to try Taqueria Tlaxcalli to taste a bite of home. When we entered, we were greeted with kind smiles from the ladies and they welcomed us to sit at any free table. Inside has lots of decor with ample seating. We sat and a server grabbed us menus. We got a carnitas burrito, grilled cactus side, horchata, and strawberry limeade (per her recommendation). Everything came so fast, and they even split the burrito for us! Oh my god, everything was so good. This has to be one of the BEST burritos I have ever had, comparable to the ones in San Diego. I love carnitas, and they do it so well here. It was tender, flavorful, just the perfect amount of sauce and seasoning! And the horchata was the best I have ever had too! The strawberry limeade was refreshing, and the grilled cactus was good! It was my first time trying it and it reminded me of aloe vera/okra texture. I had such a great time, such a great experience, I will definitely be back!

The portion size was excellent, though I would have preferred a little less onions in the dish, as they overpowered the overall taste of the chilaquiles just a little bit. The black beans were also well seasoned and the queso fresco topping was the perfect finishing touch for the side dish. The Limeade was refreshing and flavorful, and a great pairing for the whole meal. I ordered delivery from Uber Eats, and the total with tax and tip after discounts (I'm an Uber One member) was $45.12, but if you're in the Parkchester area definitely check out Taqueria Tlaxcalli for delicious, authentic Mexican food #notsponsored

Additionally the person answers the phone has you repeat yourself multiple times. It really should not so complicated I called the restaurant at 7pm to check the status of my order tonight and they said it was an additional 45 minutes after placing the order at 6:30pm. I was getting ready to drive to the restaurant and two minutes later the delivery guy rang my bell. Last week on a Saturday night we called 3x times after getting hung up on twice to place an order for fajitas. After waiting an hour, the delivery guy called to say he was outside however poor guy was given the wrong address. We ended up cancelling our order due to the lack of professionalism and poor service. At that point I didn't even want the fajitas. The food is great however the service for delivery is not good at all.
