I have only had the burritos with the shredded chicken but I'd say at least a dozen times. The burritos were great each and every time. So much better than the new Meet & Greet Mexican Grill in the Princeton Meadows Shopping Center or QDOBA Mexican Eats in Princeton Marketfair. It takes a little longer for the burritos to be prepared but worth it terms of taste, quality, and cost compared to the other two places I mentioned. read more

Stand up food at sit down prices. An excellent Burrito can be had if you can navigate through the lunchtime scrum with change back from your fifty (only half kidding.) Don't get me wrong, I like the place, just not at rush hour. Four solid stars. read more

Get the fish tacos. I can't possibly express how fantastic the food here is. You get your money's worth in portion sizes bigger than your torso. The staff is incredibly friendly and the food gets to you in a timely manner. Everything tastes fresh an I can't recommend them enough! read more

I'm probably confused since the store says it opens at 11am. Ordered online @11:12 Arrived at 11:28 to pick up. And was shooed away from the store. Worker never opened the door and never said that they opened at 11:30. Just hung up with the store and was told that because I arrived two minutes early they didn't open the door to share that information. read more

I love this place, the best food ever from plainsboro Nj ....everything is on point and the food is delicious My daughter love the birria because they put a lot of meat and they make them golden read more

This is a strong 4 - would have nailed a 5 if the food came out a *touch* faster and if the churros were a little softer. THAT BEING SAID - we went on 11/27 at around 8p. Chicken rice bowl was hella tasty and a VERY good intersection of price-meets-volume. [That's perhaps the most important part.] Ditto the birria enchiladas - good stuff too. Churros were a touch on the crunchy side, dipping sauce was nice. We shall return! Looks like there's quite a large spread to check out. read more

I just want to thank your staff for being kind, patient, professionals. Not realizing the restuarant was about to close, we placed our order and prayed for the best. What did we get?! The best! The food was hot and delicious! And the restaurant looked amazing. Thank you so much for a fast but wonderful experience. read more

What a disappointment $41 going in the trash. Soup has no balance. Over stuff with tortilla and a mound of cheese there was barely any broth, which I did request. Shrimp Tacos were suppose to have a crunchy garlic crust and it was soggy and salty to the point that we were only able to eat the inside. After traveling from NYC from work I was so excited as food smelled delicious in car this was truly a vibe killer along with money being thrown in the trash. If I could pack it up and drive back I would. The staff was the only highlight as they we courteous. The food was a awful! Salt salt with splash of more SALT ! Sadly all request on this order was null and void apparently. How do u mess up tacos :-( now off to find dinner. read more

Tacorito - a bowl of chili and a bowl of cornflakes on a table - Mexican Near Me - Plainsboro Township, New Jersey

This a fast-casual Mexican spot, somewhere between Chipotle and Tacoria. You might find yourself saying "I love what you've done to the place," if you are familiar with the area of businesses opening and closing. (It's also a nice replacement of what it was last.) The entire place is revamped with an industrial chic interior. The music gives it party vibes. As for the food, I've only had takeout (sorry, no photos) but what I've gotten was good and plenty, fresh, and most importantly, not salty. The "crazy nachos" are crazy packed with fillings more than toppings, because there's no chip left untouched. One less star because my attempts at small talk were not reciprocated by staff, making it feel more like a chain, and less like a small local business. I'll still come back for the food-- no complaints there! read more

Deliciouso. I tried the other locations and equally delicious. Here is the fish taco. Restaurant is clean and upbeat Mexican music adds to the vibe. read more

Tacorito - Fish taco - Mexican Near Me - Plainsboro Township, New Jersey

This is one of my favorite places to visit when in South Jersey. I usually visit the Hightstown location where their manager Maddy does an amazing job at running the place. I was pleasantly surprised that this location was also very clean and efficient. My food was prepared quickly which was a surprise since it's made fresh. The food itself is very delicious and filled with so much flavor. I love that they offer plenty of desserts and jarritos. Cant wait for this restaurant to make its way to North Jersey. read more

I gave this restaurant one star because the only thing I liked I was the Horchata. The rice tasted old and as if it was heated in a microwave (dry and hard). The beans were not cooked all the way through. The meat didn't have much flavor. They didn't give me my guac with my order. And they must not pay attention to the special requests section because I requested my corn to have an ingredient removed and they didn't. Overall the quality was no where near worth the amount I paid, and I paid over $30 for my meal. Smh, never going back. read more

Tacorito - Garlic rice and beans. Carne asada tacos. - Mexican Near Me - Plainsboro Township, New Jersey

Super tasty! Had a bunch of different dishes. The burritos were stuffed and were better than any of the other burrito chains like Chipotle or Qdoba. The pupusas were delicious as well. And the chips were freshly made and pure heaven. I look forward to trying the rest of their menu! Definitely a clean & casual, more fast food type of environment. Highly recommend! read more

Had takeout from here the other day and was pretty good! Honestly it was a lot of food for the price, great sized portions. I had the chipotle burrito which was just the right amount of spice. The burrito was huge and very tasty! Definitely would like to try the tacos or quesadilla next time, everything looked amazing and our food was ready pretty quickly after we ordered it! read more

Tacorito - Chipotle Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Plainsboro Township, New Jersey

Bland, not friendly, clean, music I don't like. Food was not exciting. Service was a little slow.

This is good authentic Mexican food. The rice and garlic black beans on the side to top it off. I have seen this place a bunch of times passing by. Glad I finally decided to stop in and try it. read more

I've been going to this spot for about a year and I ordered my usual today " crazy chicken empanadas and regular empanadas " they tasted different, the chicken wasn't shredded like before....I called and asked if they changed the chicken from shredded to this new recipe....the girl confirmed that they no longer have shredded chicken....very disappointing, the food tastes bad....unfortunately will not go back, for a long while it was one of my favorite food spots...not anymore read more

Enjoyed the crazy empanadas and tacorito tacos. Portions are big and filling will definitely come back again.

Amazing food Stopped by after lifetime and now this is my go to post gym meal. So good I'm glad I stopped in read more

My mom and I wanted to love this place as there isn't much in our area for Mexican food options. First off the Bag that held the food we paid $80 for, broke and the order of fajitas spilled all over our floor. (I would suggest bringing a reusable bag) we over looked that and my mom tried her taco salad only to chew on a piece of bone. The churros and empanadas tasted good on initial bite but the after taste was of old grease. And last but not least the tortillas given with the fajitas were as hard as rocks, Ralphie from the Christmas story could have shot his own eye out with them! Wanted to love this place but unfortunately we did not. Writing this to merely save the next person from the same mistake. read more

The music was too loud, 'might as well be in a club. Gustavo, who took our order looked like he's been smoking something, missed the first item. TG we had the receipt printed and realized the tacos are never coming. The open shelves with stacks of supplies ruins the overall decor. Other than the tacky ambiance and lousy service, the food was really good. Better to take out. read more

So glad this place opened up in Plainsboro area. Every dish I have tried to date is RIDICULOUSLY DELICIOUS. Amazing, quick service. Well made meals - incredibly impressed. read more

I've tried this place three times, trying something different each time hoping to be satisfied but each entree has left wanting something more.. usually flavor. Maybe I'll try more wine they have such a large menu but I'd hate to waste my money read more

not only was the food amazing, but the entire vibe and staff were amazing too. at first, our chicken nachos were brought out to us without chicken - but the second we brought it up to them, the chef formally apologized and offered to remake the entire dish. when we said that wasn't necessary, the cashier came out with a plastic take-home container FILLED with chicken; she gave us so much. highly recommend this place for great mexican food and great service - will be back soon! read more

We had a great experience here! There was a huge selection of items to choose from and the staff was very conscious of food allergies. The Baja Bowl is delicious! I was surprised to see what a flavorful alternative the tofu squares offered in comparison to vegan substitutes I've tried at other places. read more

Just ordered Tex Mex burrito with grilled chicken for takeout. Also ordered Jarrito but it was not packed. Also found few bone pieces in the burrito. I will not be returning. read more

Started going to Tacorito in Hightstown 8 years ago and have not given up my Tacorito habit since! Must try the chicken tortilla soup. The food is fresh and flagrant and remains one of my favorite restaurants in NJ. read more

Great food and atmosphere. Staff is nice and helpful, service is fast and the pork Baja tacos are great and flavorful my boyfriend and I enjoyed our meals here. read more

Ended up throwing whole meal out. Had shredded chicken tacos - the meat was seriously off and I couldn't eat it. The rice was terrible too. Will not be going back. My son said he ate at the Tacorito in Robbinsville and it was very good. I had always wanted to try it so I went today to the Plainsboro one. Definitely won't be going back. read more

I like this place a lot - you can customize your order completely (it's only what you ask for) and the base rice and protein are flavorful and consistent. read more

One of my favorite restaurant ever. The food is consistently fresh and freaking delicious. An abundance of flavors, and great portions. Obsessed. Thank you for caring about your customers! read more

Don't ask for salsa for your to go, they will give you the stinky eye (yes asking for salsa is normal for Mexican right?). Service here sucks. Food is whatever....with a confusing as hell pricing layout created to confuse you thinking it's cheaper than it really is. See for yourself and go ask for salsa for the stingy stink eye. read more

Tacorito is a recent addition to the ever expanding list of ethnic eateries in Plainsboro. We recently ordered food to go. Ordering can be done online, or by kiosk at the restaurant. We ordered Crazy Empanadas, which consists of three nicely prepared pieces. Also ordered, was the Enchilada entree, with salsa verde. The order includes four enchiladas, black beans and rice. It's a generous dish, enough for two, unless you have a large appetite. The food was well prepared and enjoyable. The staff is friendly and efficient. My only criticism, is that while I was waiting, I noticed several tables that hadn't been cleaned, with one having a soiled napkin and food residue on the tables, some chairs and on the floor. There was staff available that could have cleaned and aligned the tables and chairs. I know some might call this nitpicking, but it makes one suspect the whole operation. Clearly, there needs to be some management guidance. Otherwise, a better than adequate experience. read more

This is my second time ordering here. I got fish tacos last time and they were delicious!! This time I got a bowl and added 3 different salsas as they sounded yummy and I normally enjoy spicy food. My food was borderline not edible. The spice level was so intense! Never had anything this spicy before. Be careful what you order. The fireball salsa would be a definite no for next time. Not sure if other ones were spicy too. read more
