MÉXICO (Oaxaca) 🇲🇽 Excerpt from Eat the World NYC: New Brunswick, New Jersey, a growing town of about 57,000 people is most known for Rutgers University and surrounding area that firmly place it in the image of a "college town."

Unbelievable authentic Oaxacan food. Super kind staff, food takes a little while but it is Unbelievable, huge portions. Cash only. Chilaquiles on par with la frontera, best Mexican food I've had in NJ. Hard if you don't speak Spanish so I was glad I did and cash only

The times i been to this place the food has been amazing i mean the tacos are usually loaded with meat which makes it worth the 2.50$ or 3$ per taco depending on the type of meat, i do wish the aguas frescas were natural guys got to put some lemon and salt on them chips, but no real complains. i will said if you want it fresh walk in. don't get it deliver.

The food is great "real Mexican food". But the place needs to be bigger too small for a big family of 5. If there was more space to eat I would have been happier.

★★★★★ 5.0 Enrique Guerro · May 2024

Food is great. Ignore the negative comments. I'm pretty sure it's people from other restaurants who are envious. Definitely recommend.
