Great food and service. Waitress was really nice and cordial and the lunch time had no rush so you had plenty of space. The... Chicken Banderas was delicious and the avocado with pineapple was amazing. The enchiladas were good as well but it wassmothered in way too much cheese. The shoestring fries were crispy but I'm not a big fan of it, way too thin and not enoughpotato "meat" in each fry which I prefer. I also got the strawberry margarita and spicy margarita and both were really goodespecially the spicy one. Overall food and service was good and so we're the drinks. I'll be back for sure. Read more
Went for lunch when they first opened on a Thursday and there was already a line outside but it was worth the wait because... everyone was seated right away! Staff is friendly and food comes out quickly. We each ordered fajitas and enjoyed it. We lovecoming here when it's not busy ???? Read more
3 stars because food was delicious but very bad service! I know how the restaurant service works, at least overall. There is no... reservation on this place its just walk ins and we went as a party of 9 and one person was pregnant, while we were waiting forthe table we ordered chips salsa and drinks and we had once chair there one of my friend was sitting and staff came and askednot to sit and took the chair away. We waited for 1hr for table and still got 2 separate table we were still okay with that,when the table was ready i was the only one sitting in the car since i was tired and had to stand, the staff was not ready tosit the party because there was one person missing! That was ridiculous! How will it make difference if one person comes after 5mins? Not visiting this place again! The food was delicious and in good quality and quantity but not worth dealing with staff Read more
We ordered curbside pickup for dinner. Ordered the vegetarian empanadas, the blackened chicken appetizer and another chicken... (gaoucho I believe). We arrived at the place in 25 minutes and parked at a spot behind the building as the pickup orderinstructed, text the number on at the sign there with the last name on the order and the spot we were in and immediatelyreceived a response that our order was ready and someone brought it out right away. Fast service with curbside still availablewhen ever other places acts like covid is over. The food was amazing and I ordered the blackened chicken because the menumentioned a spicy marmalade which did not disappoint. I would recommend the empanadas and the blackened chickens with themarmalade. I'm only on me Jersey for a week but might go get food from there again before I leave. Read more
Used to come here like 20 years ago. Seems their menu has shrunk. The gumbo was delicious. The Camptown Shrimp had a good amount... of spice to it. The Jambalaya was probably the worst thing I had. It was super salty and dry. It felt like it was at the bottomof the container where it had sat and soak up all the sauce and dried out. Overall the experience was good. Read more
I went to this amazing place tonight to try some new food because a friend recommended me and everywhere was closed today, at... first I thought it was going to just be like one of those places and for some reason I never wanted to be there but as soon as Igot here and we sat down my wife and I both just knew that this was going to be an amazing place, and it was. I definitelyenjoyed the appetizers which definitely had a lot of kick to it was a really good two appetizers and then the main dishes cameout and it was really something though not one of your casuals places and supposedly a chain I would definitely come back herein a heartbeat. This place is definitely got a personality and definitely quality some thing of which you were looking both forwhen you go out to a nice restaurant. The owner doesn?t believe in social media and stuff like that and believes in word ofmouth the original method of marketing. But I definitely agree when I see a good place I?ll definitely go there again I?llhighly recommend Jose Tejas at 647 US Highway 46, follow my ig for more reviews, exact name as my profile Read more
We enjoyed the decor and the lively atmosphere. Came here for date night, menu is simple and to the point. Very reasonably... priced. We ordered the frozen margarita grande and the strawberry margarita , both very delicious. Appetizers were queso, whichwas meh? very velveeta vibe ..nothing special but still a good choice, guacamole, which was excellent, fresh and totally nailedit and they serve the chips and salsa on the house . The chips are hot with a fresh healthy sprinkling of salt, muchappreciated! Hub ordered the gumbo ( not pictured ) and said it was very good. We ordered the fajita for two and here is where Iwas not happy. The meat was so over cooked and served on a sizzling skillet so of course the already over cooked meat is justturning into rubber at that point. It was beyond overcooked and once we realized it ,we couldn?t get it off the skillet fastenough. We asked before ordering about the serving size because it says for two ? so is it enough for two starving people orjust enough for two people after stuffing themselves with corn chips. The server assured us we would each be able to get 4fajitas out of it?. We got a full skillet or so it looked, we ordered the half chicken half steak. It was mostly chicken, a fewpieces of steak and the rest was onions. We were able to make 4 fajitas each, however the meat did not last. Also, be awarethere is nothing in addition to the meat or onions on the skillet ( not a pepper in sight) . Next, the little dish with all thecondiments, that mountain in the middle we thought was cheese ? was not. It was lettuce with a topping of cheese on top of thelettuce ? disappointment. The server was very friendly and attentive. Overall, not the best but most certainly a better choicethan some of the other restaurants with this cuisine. Read more
