Love their tacos! Not a fancy place more of a take out but they have a lot of Mexican snacks that are hard to get where I’m from, so a trip there is always great

The food is good, but some products they sell are damaged and the boy who attends does not have a good attitude

MÉXICO 🇲🇽Eat the World NYC review:An almost magical area containing one of the densest concentrations of Oaxacans on the east coast is right in New Brunswick, NJ. A good place to begin your explorations is at one of the longest running, La Placita Mexicana, which has evolved in its ten or so years of existence from a tiny kitchen inside a grocery to a slightly less tiny kitchen inside a grocery with a massive following. Because growth really is not an option at this original location, they have opened up two formal restaurants nearby, but the casual nature of the grocery is still preferred.The big crispy yet stretchy tortilla used for tlayudas ($10-12) is not ever made to order, as these are actually imported from Oaxaca. A layer of asiento (unrefined pork lard) and black beans creates the canvas for lettuce, the meat of your choice, stringy white Oaxacan cheese and avocado. Before the tlayuda is folded over, it is large and round, about the size of a medium pizza. Sometimes it is served without folding like at Costa Chica across the street, but at casual places and on the street the fold is done to make the dish easier to eat by hand.

This place is a hidden gem inside a mini govern store. They make their tortillas fresh and makes all the difference. I tried the tacos and sopes. Also best horchata Ive had in NJ so far.

The truth is a very small place and the workers do not have the capacity to treat people because when you arrive and order they innovate people and serve those they want

A bad experience in this place today, is a being without a despotic and discriminating heart ... I am not looking for a way to attend to me, I simply behave rudeIn my point of view it is a place with very little respect and that is why it is not recommended due to the inhuman way of the owner 😡😡😡😡😡

Today I ordered two tlayudas, the cold tortilla without flavor, I ordered two types of meat, they charged me double arrived at the house they did not give me what I ordered, the meat was fat and burnt, the girls in front do not have any jokes, I remember when they opened this shop they were so rich a lot of meat and quesillo i now not even that, I will not return to this place.

Excellent food the tlayudas are the best tacos or tell. The bad thing is that on weekends the meat for the tacos is a bad idea to have it cooked and to have it in the steamer since it loses flavor, color but from Monday to Thursday when they cook the meat instantly it is the most delicious thing I have tasted

Very rich food very small place comfortable prices good attention of the girls who cook, attend and cook a girl who is very thin the thinnest of them all is how the main one is super friendly and fast cooking and serving the others almost not and in my opinion, this is a new girl that I had not seen and has false nails I think that the girls who cook should not have long ones personally disgusts me and best of all is that whenever we go we are attended by this girl the skinny girl I know what it is called, but everything is very tasty, they have tlayudas, chopped, soups, cakes, burritos and tamales, the truth is the tamales so as not to ask again but everything else is fresh and delicious 😋😋😋
