"It's challenging not to have a biased opinion of Mexican food, having grown up surrounded by authentic Mexican cuisine. I think if you've never experienced Mexican food, then this is a great spot to try it out in nearly the further away location from Mexico here in the US. I ordered the Tacos de Birria meal with two side street tacos. The portions are great, though the beans tasted out of a can. The rice tastes as expected, but then there's the tacos. I had high hopes for the Birria tacos, but they fell short. There was seemingly no cheese (even mozzarella would've been fine) and little cilantro and onion. Now, the consumé that's typically served as a bowl to dip in came in a 2oz to-go cup. Not feasible for dipping, but maybe they don't have enough to serve large cups. The street tacos were just as empty as the birria, but I would say the meat was seasoned and cooked similar to the Birria, even though it's two different styles they're normally cooked. I hope this review doesn't change your mind about trying out this place, as it is still a nice location that gives off a more posh, new-age atmosphere. I can not expect every Mexican restaurant to be tile ceramic designs, Spanish music, and the authentic flavor I grew up with. I do hope that the review for the food helps adjust for better quality. Thank you for the service, I hope this place continues to serve a taste of Mexico as far as Northeast as it can get."
