Tacos
Nader E.

S/o to the Yelp event for sponsoring some of my food (cuz obviously you gotta get more when you can, duh!). That being said, the habanero sweet orange sauce and the elite corn they have from the sides menu... Best things I ate there! I don't even know what that orange mayo like sauce was on that corn but it made me sad knowing I only had two cute baby corns to eat, I just wanted to keep getting kernels in my teeth for that cob. And the habanero sauce, was downright slurpable. I didn't bother drizzling when you can just take a shot of it after every bite of either taco, burrito, whatever you get. Had to separate this paragraph for the tacos I got. I got 4 tacos. A pollo pastor, a shredded chicken, regular pollo, and regular carne asada. Now pollo and carne asada, nothing too special. Standard but with the way they sauce it and present it, I can say solid taco. The pollo pastor...as someone who can't eat pork, this was a blast to eat. They use mini chunk pineapple and put a good amount of condiments to balance it all out. Chicken not dry and super flavorful. Also enjoy the single tortilla over double. Less carbs. Now that shredded chicken. While not dry, I don't know where that bite was taking me. I just wasn't feeling it and I can't pinpoint why. I don't know if it's the extra stuff on top of it, or the fact that the corn was my fave but the side sauces didn't help. I'd def come back for the other 3 but not that shredded one. That limonada was sooooo good and refreshing! I thought I'd get horchata when I had the chance but because that limonada was hitting right, didn't even bother. And the fact it's like unlimited refills if you get a drink, totally worth it! Overall, I appreciate the patience of the manager and cashier. They were really nice and helpful. The interior was sick too. Repurpose lockers for chairs. Baseball stadium chairs. Definitely tight but just right. I was struggling finding spots for Mexican food, I have a pretty high standard for it, but I'll give this a solid/perfection score lol

Tacoria is one of my favorite fast-casual spots -- consistently fresh, flavorful, and such a great value! I've been to both the Montclair and Jersey City locations and they never disappoint. Their Beyond Tacorizo Burrito is incredible -- perfectly seasoned, super satisfying, and honestly so packed it can stand up on its own (no joke ). The vegan chipotle aïoli takes everything to the next level -- creamy, smoky, and the perfect finishing touch. I also love their fried avocado and chips + guac, which are always crispy and fresh. Service is quick, the vibe is relaxed, and prices are really fair for how much food you get. It's one of those spots where you can pop in for a casual meal and always leave happy. 5/5 stars!!!

Ordered for work lunch!! Service was fast and easy to order. Food was good. Ordered a carne asada burrito and a carne asada quesadilla as well as elote. I was supposed to have a quesadilla but it came as a burrito. The flavors were very good though. No complaints will be ordering again soon.

BOX - CARNE ASADA

Service= 10/10- very nice staff members Ambiance= nothing out of the ordinary Food= 2/10 I typically order the Pollo Tinga which is always consistent. I made the biggest mistake in testing the waters ordering the Carne Asada. I typically don't order steak when it comes to establishments like this because they use very cheap cuts and I wasn't wrong. The steak was absolutely inedible and chewy! I literally could not eat through the pieces. They had hard fat within the grain, were chewy and honestly tasted like chopped London Broil. Stay away from Carne Asada at all costs!

The street corn is a highlight to me great taste and sauce. The quesadilla was also good but maybe a little light on meat. Good service that was quick. And the seating area does feel like a place I would have ate in when I went to Mexico city or Puebla

I truly enjoyed my time at this location. The food was incredible, truly bursting with flavor. This was my first time here and I came with a friend and we enjoyed a lunch, seated in the back, while the restaurant played a full Beyoncé playlist. Literally a dream!! It wasn't too crowded or loud. We were able to sit and converse and be merry. Will definitely return.

Amazing tacos full of flavor. Personal favorites are the carne asada and sweet potato. Huge, filling burritos, just as tasty. Fast and kind service. Much better than the "other" place around the corner that always has a huge line ;)

Interior

Love Tacoria dishes. We tried brussel sprouts and chicken burrito bowl. I am big fan of all their sauces and have to pour atleast few of them on all four corners of my dish :D The interior has same minimalist industrial vibes like other Tacoria places. Service was quick and staff the counter seemed friendly Definitely a good place for a quick bite

Burrito Box - Carne Asada
Amanda W.

One of my favorite spots in Jersey City! There are plenty of taco and Mexican options, but Tacoria never disappoints. I went to a Yelp event and got the burrito box with carne asada and the Mexican street corn. It's really the sauce and seasoning that sets this place apart. I also highly recommend anything with their brussel sprouts or golden avocado! Everyone is always super nice and it's easy to see why they always have business. You can eat there or get things to go, which makes life even easier!

Tacoria is a staple for easy, quick, and delicous delivery in JC. Food always comes quickly and is warm. Beyond Taco'Rizo Burrito (4.5/5) - Hearty, flavorful vegetarian "meat" burrito that satisfies Brussels Sprout Tacos (5/5) - sweet and savory fried brussels sprouts shine with crema and cotija cheese. Great in burrito form too! Avocado Taco (4/5) - crispy tempura avocado, super creamy, def need to top with salsa for more flavor Rajas Tacos (3.5/5) - Simple but could use a bit more oomph/flavor Mexican Street Corn (4/5) - Delicious corn on the cob Tacoria remains a staple for delicious mexican food with many good vegetarian taco and burrito options!

Steak Taco - Al Pastor
Karina F.

I could eat these tacos everyday! The food came out quickly and everything was fresh and delicious. I also had margaritas and they were amazing and so strong. The staff members were kind and answered any questions I had. 10/10 service and 10/10 food.

Tacoria entrance

Steak tacos here are excellent and the Mexican street corn is good as well. Definitely a good spot for tacos and other eats.

Guava + Basil Agua Fresca
Anthony R.

This is a wonderful spot to refuel after a nice workout. I stopped by Tacoria after playing some tennis and the burrito bowl I ordered has so much texture, crunch, and flavor. They give a generous amount of Mexican rice, meats, and cheese. I was originally worried about the abundance of pineapple in my bowl but was pleasantly surprised! The corn chips tasted fresh and a little bit on the hard side and the guac is well seasoned and delicious! I like how this spot also has a wall full of condiments and hot sauce that you can grab and return at your convenience. The inside has refurbished seating which I thought was a vintage touch - like the stadium seats and the used lockers turned sideways. My order definitely did not feel heavy as other spots may do and if I'm playing tennis in the area again, I'm stopping by here from now on.

It was Taco Tuesday…read moreso we had to celebrate accordingly and El Ranchero is the perfect spot because they throw in an extra taco on Tuesdays as part of their deal! The service was great. Our server was very on top of her stuff, making sure we had everything we needed and we were enjoying the food. She even let us practice our Spanish with her when ordering! My sister ordered the chicken tinga tacos and I ordered the beef birria. Both taco orders came with 5 tacos (because of the deal, it is typically 4), onions, cilantro, lime, and radish. Don't sleep on the radish, it my favorite part to add a nice crunch! Both meats were very flavorful and tender. They also gave us green and hot salsa on the side (green was my fave) and the birria tacos came with some delicious consommé for dipping. We also ordered guac and chips as an appetizer which was very fresh, and our favorite jarritos flavors to drink. It's decorated very nicely inside - no frills, a few tables and chairs inside for dining in and even a bar-style area with stools for those dining by themselves. They also offer takeout of course, but I honestly enjoyed sitting down because everything was very quick and they took great care of us. We walked, but there is only street parking so keep that in mind when traveling here.

I had always been a big fan of Orale's Hoboken location (see review here-…read morehttps://www.yelp.com/biz/orale-mexican-kitchen-hoboken?hrid=ryYRKZXfVkYvL5NbKQavTA), which has sadly closed. However, I recently stopped into their original Jersey City spot for a quick snack at the bar. While my companion ordered a cocktail, I just had a can of Diet Coke, but we shared an order of chips and pico de gallo, which was excellent! The tortilla points were crispy and perfectly salted. The fresh tomato salsa was vibrant and delicious, but we also appreciated the three squirt bottles of more liquid-like sauces they gave us as well. These included one that was more smoky, one that was a medium spice-level verde, and another that was a more fiery rendition. The bar staff was great, and the large dining room was dimly-lit, but decorated with bright, festive colors. I will need to revisit that Orale location for a larger, more substantial meal next time!

I was really torn about leaving this review but here we are. I went to Orale the other day because…read moreI had a craving for tacos and I wanted to be outside and people watch. The restaurant is located in the busy downtown area of Grove St. Jersey City. If you are lucky enough to get street parking great, if not there are some garages you can park in for a fee. I walked up and there were several employees at the entrance to the outdoor street-side patio chitchatting. They were very pleasant and quickly gave me a table. It wasn't busy. That's a key fact. Also I was dining alone. It took about 5 minutes for the waiter to come over and when he did he asked about my water preference and showed me the QR code on the table to get the menu. He left and came back and I gave him my order which was the carnitas tacos and a watermelon margarita. He quickly walked off and the food came out LITERALLY in 5 minutes. I was surprised because I was expecting the complimentary tortilla chips and salsa that's customary at most Mexican restaurants. Also I saw other tables with 2 or more with chips in front of them. So I asked a waitress that was passing by (since my waiter had seem to disappear) if I too can get the tortilla chips and she said it would be extra. Okay...well I started eating my food and my drink came out. The food was good. Flavorful. Temperature wise it didn't come out hot, it was warm... so it's not cooked to order. The drink was sweet and strong. So my reason for the three stars isn't the food or drink but more so for the service I received as a solo diner. My waiter never came back over to check on me! Had he done so I would have easily ordered dessert and something more to drink as I enjoyed the patio area. I had to wave him down to bring my check as he passed my table several times without even looking my way. Piece of me wanted to mirror his service in my tip but I still gave generously just to be a blessing. But I hate that I received poor service because I was a solo diner. I was a little jealous on how he treated the two other tables with 2&3 people. I spent over $50 here and left disappointed. So if you've reached this far, will I go back? Maybe. Just not alone.
