    Very decent quality of food! Friendly staff! It is an excellent hidden place at the back of Main Street—a good place to relax and dine.

    We recently dined at Taste of Mexico and tried the chicken fajitas. The chicken was well seasoned and flavorful, and the rice and beans were a great addition to the overall meal. However, I found the portion of chicken to be small, which was a bit underwhelming. Additionally, the vegetables, which are meant to be a side, ended up taking over the plate. While the overall taste was good, a better balance between the chicken and vegetables would have made this a more enjoyable meal. In addition to the chicken fajitas, we ordered the carne enchiladas, which were served along a bed of rice, beans, and a simple green salad. The grilled pork in the enchiladas was marinated well and juicy. The carne complimented the sautéed tomatoes, onions, and jalepeños tenderly filled inside the enchiladas. The carne enchiladas was a well-sized dish and was quite delectable. Now onto the star of the meal... The Tres Leches Cake. The sponge-like cake, soaked in the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and cream, was a symphony of richness and delight to our taste buds. Despite the prevalence of milk, the dish never felt heavy and continued to be light and luscious till the very last bite.

    This is rated #2 after Tortuga’s, Princeton, you can do better! We ordered nachos but you'd never know based on what arrived at our table. This soppy mess had no flavor or texture and was topped with strips of wet lettuce and thin, bland chicken. There were no jalapeños or seasoning of any kind detectable. We needed a side of chips to eat the little bit we tried because the soft, wet ones under the goppy mess were unable to hold anything on them. So very disappointing, will not return.

    A hidden gem (its location is at the back of 180 Nassau Street building, so it took some time to find). Great price! Loved the fish tacos I ordered. The fish was succulent, and the tortilla were really nice too. I liked that they doubled the tortilla so that the taco does not break apart due to the weight of the fillings. Very well thought out!

    Food/desserts (chicken enchiladas, shrimp tacos, tres leches cake, and flan) were very good, and hard to beat the prices. Really enjoyed the horchata as well. They just need more people working the front - only a single person handling seating, serving, and take out orders.
