Breakfast Menu "Taqueria Downtown" Jersey City

First time back in a long time and the food is still good for the most part but whew the prices have gone up. Best items personally are still the pork tostada and the chicken enchiladas rojas. The tamales made a return, but they’re so small now, the filling nearly nonexistent, and the masa packed a little too densely - no longer fluffy. This with the price increase makes it the one item hard to recommend. Their flan is still really good and one order is good enough to share! Service was great despite being really busy. Atmosphere is good if you like it loud, a lot of energy, but if you like it a little more laid back request the outdoor seating. But if the air quality is bad as it has been recently - stick to indoors.

This has been a Local favorite for a while. Dine in service could be a lot better. The wait time feels completely disorganized - after over 50 mins of waiting when we were sat we saw empty tables (not cleaned) and imagined that was the reason why it took so long. the waiter took a long time and we saw him giving our neighboring table a nasty attitude for their tip. Very uncalled for and unprofessional. Unfortunately we had him too. He was ok. But I felt the need to be extra nice so I wouldn’t catch the nasty attitude either 🙃🤣 He took a while to get our order and the food took a while to come out. Once it did we enjoyed it. We got tacos de pescado y lengua. A fried taco type of appetizer and flautas de papa. I should also say the bar area was a lot better in terms of service. The woman there took my drink order quickly and was extremely friendly and attentive.

So glad I found this place. Needed a late night bite, and saw they were open til 11pm. I am leaving full and very happy. I got 3 tacos - steak, lamb and carnitas. They were so good I had to order another round. I only had room for two more and liked the steak and carnitas more so went with those again (carnitas was for sure my overall favorite.) The service and vibe were also great. And they were so fast. 10/10 on all accounts. Thank you!

Taqueria has been my go-to spot for many many years. I am giving this place a 5-star because of the food being consistently good and the atmosphere is cozy. I cannot remember a time I left there feeling unsatisfied. Because I have visited this place for many years I saw the food go from larger plates to smaller ones. It does match the prices so that is why I did not deduct a star, but something to be mindful of. Either way, I 100% recommend checking them out because they’re delicious!

Favorite spot for tacos. Everything here is great. There may be a wait, but service is very fast and you are usually in-and-out. Great for lunch or dinner.

Great place. A friend and I came here for dinner and had a great time. We came on a Tuesday evening there was a bit of a wait, but we got seated pretty quick. We had the quac and a range of different tacos it was all delicious. My only gripe is they didn't have chicken tacos, which I feel should be a staple option.

We literally got a bunch and people at the other table even come over to ask if we cannot decide what we want so ordered all( we just ate a lot). Of all the flavors we’ve tried, the fish and carnitas ones are my favorite. The sausage quesadilla is also a must have!

Best tacos I’ve had in Jersey. Takes around 35 minutes to get here from where I live and is so worth the trip. Came here for a quick lunch around 1PM, and the place was packed. They started us off with some free chips and salsa, normally don’t like salsa but this one was great. We ordered guacamole as well, also very good. Now if you are looking for great tacos this is the place. Cheap and soooo good. Each taco is around $3.75-$4.00.We had around 12 tacos and were very full. We got the salted beef, beef tongue, steak, pork, and pork stomach. All of them were literally finger licking good; the steak was too spicy for us but if you like spicy it would work for you. My boyfriend got a Modelo with his meal as well. Service is very quick and the atmosphere is cool. The inside is not big so you might have to wait a bit to be seated if it's busy. Parking was also a bit hard to find, there's only street parking available. Will definitely be back very soon!
