I cannot stress to you enough, THIS PLACE IS FIRE. Try the cochinita bc it's world class and not something you'll see on 99% of taqueria menus.

The food is the most authentic Mexican I've had since I stopped an hour from Cabo San Lucas at a…read moreroadside eatery. Salsa and chips? Homemade and fresh! Chips were hot. Street tacos, empanadas, quesadillas Tortas, burritos and tamales- I think that is the whole menu. No Tex mex, no chimichangas, no Speedy Gonzalez special- this is more authentic. In fact, the waitress/cashier was the only other person in the building that spoke ANY English- including other patrons. Is this fancy? Nope. Is it clean? Yup. The shrimp street tacos were the best food in our opinion- tied with the chips and salsa. Also had carne asada and chorizo tacos and Burria empanadas and the shrimp was the best. Entire restaurant and bathrooms are handicap accessible, but this place is not right next to parking. It is in a little outdoor mall area, at the back, so you'll need to park and go maybe 100-150 yards to the door. If you need fried ice cream and a mariachi band, you need to stop elsewhere, but if you are looking for good quality, authentic food for a really reasonable price- this is it.

Here's how our trip to J's went! I was traveling through Irvington today on my way home. Decided to swing through J's Fired Up n Smokin' and give it a try. I was crunched for time so I was going to order to go. When I walked in I was met by Joyce and Bill (Owners) and Amy ( a new waitress). They all immediately made you feel at home. I knew I wanted a brisket sandwich and was taking a Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich to my son. They had the meal packed up and ready to go quite fast making the Philly Cheesesteak from scratch. While they were preparing the meal I had a look around the restaurant. It's a small, quaint country restaurant. It's not trying to be some big city restaurant. They're more concerned with giving you great service and superb food than having a fancy ambiance. As for the food I have been working on losing weight. So, I took a fork to the incredibly large portion of brisket on my sandwich. I don't know exactly how much was on there but if it was a huge sandwich. The sauce they use is phenomenal. There's a hint of sweet buried in there somewhere that is simply fabulous. After I finished eating all the incredible brisket I closed the to-go container and set it aside. This lasted for about a minute and I ripped it open and ate every single bit of that giant sandwich bun soaked in that delicious bbq sauce and brisket. Then I picked up my 15 year old son. He said, "What's that?" I told him it was a Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich. He said he wasn't hungry right now but would eat it later. About 100 yards down the road he asked what smells so good? I told him it was his sandwich. It was devoured shortly thereafter and announced that it was the best Philly Cheesesteak he's ever had. Coming from him that is saying something. We'll definitely be back! Superb service, awesome food, clean restaurant and restrooms, and simply, great people. I've eaten in restaurants from New York to LA and Washington state to Florida and those were two of the best sandwiches we have EVER had!
