I found this on google mexican rest. near my location. The food was execellent from the start beginning with chips amd tomato salsa. Great Vibes, without asking I could tell it was family owned and operated. I noticed a customer walk in and greet the staff like family, which says alot. A small family came in and I ober heard the mom to her son, "the food is great here, why dont you try something new." My daughtered ordered guacamole, which I usually dont eat, but after trying it I thought it was very good. I ordered chicken fajitas, which came with chicken, green & red peppers, zucchini, spinach, onions, tomatoes, and cheese, along with rice, beans and a choice of hard or soft tortillas. It was honestly the best fajita dish I ever had. The mix of vegetsbles really made it stand out. Im not

We shop in NJ on Saturdays. My daughter asked for Shrimp Tacos. I said ok google, and Las Chiangas popped up. It was near so we headed out. I cannot tell you how amazing this experience was. This place is very small with about 8 tables. We had 2 adults and 3 kids. My daughter asked if they had apple juice for the two kids. They did not... next thing you know, they ran next door and got two bottles for us. I was blown away. To say this place is welcoming would be an understatement. The woman who waited on us was so joyous. The menu is extensive. We ordered simple items. The food was delicious. Now this place is all about home cooking. There are seasoned ladies in the back cooking with a passion for their culture. What a great place. At the end, my daughter said tha

FINALLY found a good Mexican restaurant in Monmouth County. It is a small quaint little place with FRESH home style food. The Tacos de Carnitas were delicious, Tostadas and Flautas as well, hot sauces are flavorful and spicy if you ask for it. They make an Artisanal Mole that is Phenomenal! The prices are reasonable, staff is friendly and portions are generous. Most importantly the food is delicious. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND. P.S. Their website does not depict their food properly nor does it justice in my opinion.

Amazing Mexican spot! The food was fresh, flavorful, and authentic — everything tasted homemade. The service was excellent too; everyone was friendly and attentive. The portions were generous, and the presentation was beautiful. Definitely one of my favorite places for Mexican food — highly recommend! 🇲🇽

Not sure how this place flew under our radar for so long. Been looking for a good Mexican restaurant close to home and stumbled up this place the other day. Very warm and welcome atmosphere. Great food. We had a beef burrito and a shrimp platter and were very satisfied with both. Small but cozy dining area, though I gather more people get take out than dine in. Prices very reasonable for the generous portion sizes. Will definitely make this a regular stop.
