Benji's Taqueria Mexican Grill 2

If you’re bored of all the local pizza, hot chicken and ramen options, don’t sleep on Benji’s for solid Mexican. I want to give them a 4.5 but I know they want 5 stars so let’s round up to the nearest penny. We are boring customers; we get our usuals bc they nail it: chicken quesadilla, enchiladas verde (chorizo) and the absolute must churros with the chocolate dipping sauce. Also they give you red and green fresh picanté sauces for your entrees which is a bonus. Food is great. My only ding is that I would have liked a little more rice than what they gave me, but the fresh flavor of the beans along with them just about wiped that concern away. The prices are decent, service is friendly hustling kids and they have occasional discounts and a loyalty/points program, so they know how to operat

Chicken al pastor tacos: I like how light the tortillas are and slightly fried which gives it a slight crunch. The “avocado” sauce though it just green tomatoes and you can tell because of the seeds and the distinct taste

I always order from them until today I ordered birria tacos and yknow it comes with the consomé sauce, there was a straw wrapper in the sauce, the worse part is I didn’t even order any beverage how da heck Did this happen?! So grossed out. I called the restaurant they didn’t take no accountable whatsoever not even a simple apology. I told The owner I would write a review and she encouraged me; that’s how you guys treat your loyal customers !? I’m 3 months pregnant so you know how annoyed and grossed out I am. Do better! Never again. Disgusting place and attitude. I read another review on here that their food had bugs in it. If you care about your health eat somewhere else!

There was an event on my block same day as my birthday ( haha lucky I know). Big shut out to Benji’s Taqueria, thanks for showed up that day. We enjoyed the tacos, everything was delicious! And most of all Thank you so much to Mauricio and Jenny, you guys were amazing, super friendly and helpful.

Benji’s a local authentic taqueria dishing out generously filled tacos. Visited Benji’s on the recommendation from a friend who moved to the area from California. We ordered the Guac and chips which we found to be incredibly fresh and superbly seasoned. The Birria tacos come in a set of three. Packed to the gills with very tender shreds of possibly slow cooked brisket that packed immense flavor. The consume was very flavorful as well. But, found it to be saltier and greasier than I would have preferred. Every now and then it’s great to line your insides with greasy lubricants, no difference compared to a car. Prepare to take some antacids. Worth it for the flavor!
