El Jardin Restaurant

We came here for the birria, but ended up trying more of their menu and nothing disappointed! The Esquites was so flavorful, the guac was perfectly made and fresh, the corn tortillas are soft and fried well, not stale at all like in some other places. Even the complimentary jalepano sauce with the chips was so unique in flavor. The star of the show was the birria burrito! Very flavorful, and filling.

I use to love the food, but the last few orders of tacos they have skimped on the meat. Four measly filled tacos they are more like a snack 👎🏽👎🏽.. Yall won't get my money on this mess again

I ordered a few items from this place but I had to give a review on this restaurant or put you guys on game I wouldn't say everything was to my likeness in taste but everyone have different taste and opinions but my two favorites or and most delicious items I had and would rate it a 10/10 was the SHRIMP BIRRIA TACOS & THE ELOTE or Mexican street corn on a cub 🔥 💯 the other stuff was alright but not my cup of tea Honestly but as I said everyone have different taste and opinions but will highly recommend those 2 items absolutely delicious 😋 😉

I have never had Birria Ramen before and now I’m craving it! This spot is so authentic and the dishes are PACKED with flavor. I can taste the cilantro as I type. Gotta try their Birria pizza, Birria nachos + Birria tacos too. The cokes are from Mexico and hit different. Staff was so friendly. Everything was fresh and served hot. Do yourself a favor and find out with this is so highly rated on all the delivery apps!

Hands down, the best birria tacos I've ever had! I ordered the chicken variant and was amazed by its freshness. The spices were accompanied by a slight heat that persisted through all the tacos, and I found the melted cheese along the shells' interiors to be an excellent balance of flavor. Pair that with the soothing sweetness of their horchata, and you can't go wrong.

2nd time ever having birria tacos and this place does it well! They have a simple dine in area, prices are decent. I paid $13 for 3 tacos. The sauce is great! Taco shells weren’t as crunchy as I would like them but still a really great spot!

Not authentic Mexican food anymore. I went there a while back and I had high expectations. My tacos al pastor were shredded meat and no pineapple, no flavor. We had their Birria and it was flavorless. The meat seems to be bought frozen already cooked and like they just heat up because it does not taste fresh. Their Aguas frescas come like those boba drinks with the plastic cover needless to say they were obviously anything but Fresca. One waitress taking care of the tables and takeout orders, so we did not get the best attention for the automatic tip they add on to your receipt. Not her fault so we still tipped. Overall there is so many authentic places within that area that is such a shame they went that route.

on the first picture it was my time trying this place & tacos were 9/10! very fresh and filling On the second picture is my second time 8/10 but overall tasty hot and fresh. Usually the orders are very quick but I suggest calling ahead of time if you’re in a rush. Try not to go during rush hour since you have to park on the streets or the side of the restaurant and parking is very limited.

Been coming here for 5 years at least and I stumbled upon it randomly I only get take out usually I've sat once or twice but they definitely won't let you down

Got some delicious tacos here with my sisters! The birria were absolutely delicious. The service was quick. you order at the counter and it comes out quick. Absolutely loved it!! Parking nearby too.

Let me start off by saying i absolutely love the birria tacos here. So much I catered birria tacos for my baby shower. DELICIOUS. With that being said, I am extremely disappointed in this establishment. This restaurant does NOT pay their workers fairly. After a few conversations with different cashiers, I realized that these CASHIERS are severely underpaid. A lot of them being minors, who unfortunately do not know what a fair wage is or their rights. Their pay begins at $9.00 to run the register... they're told by owners that they're waitresses however, every time I walk into the establishment, i notice that it is NOT a sit down restaurant per say. Almost all orders are made at the register and placed to go. After speaking with a few employees, I've received an anonymous complaint stating they have to pray their pay isn't cut or shortened (already that it legally is) because the owners will literally take all the employee's money to fix short registers. DO NOT BUY HERE! THEY DO NOT DESERVE THE SUPPORT FROM LOCALS UNTIL THEY TREAT THEIR EMPLOYEES CORRECTLY. it's insane how many new cashiers I see because of this issue!

First and foremost Tacos are excellent. Secondly, the pork egg roll was not what I expected. It was way better. The beans are the best I've had in a restaurant in quite some time and lastly my Jamaica was absolutely delicious. I have to come back for the Birria Ramen. Yes, you read right, Birria Ramen.

Delicious ramen! Tacos were good, salsa was spicy! Service was great! Parking was a little hard, maybe it was just me since I'm not from here but I heard someone talking about this place and had to try. Ramen was super flavorful!

It definitely helps to speak Spanish. Service was friendly though despite the language barrier. My only comment would be that they put mandatory gratuity for a party of 2 before we were even seated and they tried to charge us for to-go containers. I've ordered take-out online and never had to pay extra for containers. Ambiance is cute, nicely decorated and clean. Food is what keeps me coming back! So so good! Birria tacos are ON POINT!!

I'm a little embarrassed to say that I have ordered via DoorDash too many times to count! However that's because the food is very good! The beef Birria and chicken Birria are both very good- but I like the beef more! So flavorful! The (elotes) seasoned corn on the cob is very good! The guacamole is delicious and fresh! I will continue to order because they have somewhat late hours and the Birria is some of the best I've tasted!

I have never had Birria Ramen before and now I'm craving it! This spot is so authentic and the dishes are PACKED with flavor. I can taste the cilantro as I type.

I haven't dined-in but usually order take out when I have family from out of state in town as we all love the biria tacos. The consommé is phenomenal and is also delicious to sip on after we've devoured the tacos! Looking forward to ordering take out again real soon!

AMAZING TACOS. Ordered on DoorDash and got a bunch of birria tacos, mini quesadillas and rice for the toddlers, and churros. We all loved it and cannot wait to order again soon. Love love love. Thank you for the great food.

So far, the best beef birria ramen I have had in Jersey! Ramen was filled with lots of meat and the noodles were not overcooked. I was mostly surprised that it was so good because we ordered take out and did not expect everything to be so tasty. Also, loved the beef birria tacos with the consume on the side. Other items that we ordered were the shrimp quesadilla, shrimp and chicken tacos, birria and shrimp tacos and wings. Everything was good. We called in our order, and everything was made in a timely manner. The lady in the front was super nice and even called me when my order was ready. We will be back.

These are the Best Birria tacos! Pricing is a bit high. Only did takeout. 8oz rice $5 ridiculous.

First time trying birria tacos. I gotta say, I prefer more legit Mexican/ California style tacos (especially without the fried shell) so don't think I'll try these again. Tried both beef and chicken. The beef tacos were more flavorful and juicy. Chicken was on the dry side, and wasn't the best tasting imo. I read online that this style of tacos is traditionally served with goat. Goat would've been great, but don't think its on the menu. $15 for 4 tacos ... I was a little hungry after finishing (and thats with ordering chips/ guac on the side). Parking was weird. There is metered street parking but the meters are fairly far apart. Some guy parked in between my friends car and my car and there wasn't any meter for him. So its not clear which meter belongs to which car.

I told myself I wouldn't come back after having a rude encounter with one of the employees that served me a shrimp ramen bowl topped with beef & argued with me that it wasn't- despite me showing him the bits of shrimp throughout the noodles & telling him I was allergic. I decided to visit one of my favorite birria spots one LAST TIME. & dammit idk, this was better than any of the tacos I've had from here. The prices have definitely increased since then & idk if it's still worth going 35-40 mins out my way for. If you can't make it yourself & you're in the area, definitely come out. The refrescas are my favorite!!! I love the watermelon, melon, & pineapple!!! Don't bother picking soda or any other drink but this. We also tried the egg roll, but I wouldn't do it again. It was too much for nothing lmao- not enough crunch.

Amazing spot. 1) If you are a Birria fan you will love their Birria taco and Birria pizza. They also have Birria taco, which is good, but the Birria tacos and Birria pizza is much better. 2) They have horchata, which tasted amazing. 3) They also have Squirt soda, didn't have Squirt soda since my college days.

So happy to find a place doing great birria tacos close to home rather than NYC where I'm not going quite as often now. Ordered over the phone and picked up. Service was very sweet. The space is very nice and cutely decorated. Tacos were really good! Overstuffed but not falling out of the crispy tortillas. Green sauce on the side was tasty but not too spicy and the consommé had a very deep, beefy flavor. Elote was a full corn cob topped with Mayo, salty cheese and spices. Definitely coming back and looking to try the ramen.

I decided to visit el Jardin because I saw a friend post about it on their Instagram. Since I came during COVID, I decided get my order to go but I believe they did have indoor dining. I ordered the beef birria taco and the chicken birria tacos. The birria tacos were soo good and it also came with a consomme that you dip the tacos in. The wait is around 30 mins for the birria tacos but there is a parking lot close by so you can park and wait there. Each order of the Birria tacos costs 13 dollars which includes 4 tacos and the consommé. I recommend calling ahead to place your order for pick up. I will be returning to try the noodles because they look so good.

Food is delicious. The tacos are off the hook on another level. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for good tacos, burritos etc.

First...only 4 stars because I did not dine in and had a 3rd party delivery service pick up and deliver to my hotel so I cannot review the restaurant or service. However...the birria tacos I ordered are 5 star. So good! I ordered the beef. You get 4 tacos, consume and two salsas, a red and a green. All are fantastic. The beef is soooooo tender none of the meat pulls out when you bite into it. Seriously delicious. You can order extra neat but you don't need it. The tacos are packed with plenty of meat, nice amount of cheese, onion and cilantro. You can also order e tra crispy. I opted to get them as is. Pricing is good but of course through Ubereats it's a bit more. I highly recommend this place. If I were here longer I'd definitely want to try more of the menu or dine it. Give them a shot, you for sure won't be disappointed by the tacos.

I just had the chicken and steak birria tacos and it was amazing. So juicy and flavorful! I will be coming back again.

I had more expectations when ordering from this restaurant. I had a bad altercation with the staff and manager they were extremely rude due to getting my order incorrect. I requested for a change or at least money back and I was laughed at and called a liar and was told I will not be receiving any money back. I expected better customer service but unfortunately this company was very unprofessional. I will not be ordering from here again.

The service was bad and ramen came from the store bought Tapatio, they literally just added water and threw some beef in it ... me and my boyfriend saw the packages come into the kitchen. The worst part is tip is automatically included for 2 people ... the theme of the restaurant was nice but everything was plastic even the dine in menu was plastic. Not worth $55 go across the street for la posada you'll have a better experience & better food. If you're looking for an original homemade AUTHENTIC MEXICAN FOOD this is not it!

If I could rate them a 0 I would . The tacos were not only dry they gave me the wrong tacos and didn't want to give me my money back . Manager was super rude .

Food: I had the beef Birria tacos. They cost $13 for 4 tacos. I thought it was delicious. It's heavy on the cilantro and raw yellow onions which I'm not crazy about but it was good nonetheless. As far as beverages you have a choice of Agua frescas, jarritos, mexican coke, and regular coke. Customer service: I dined in and the hostess was very sweet. She brought over a card reader when it was time to pay and was always attentive. Location: main avenue is a very bust street. The restaurant is on a corner and there's no parking lot for the business. Only street parking is available but I did park across the street in a parking lot for another business (do that at your own risk lol). Ambiance:It was spacious and nicely lit. Cute and very casual. There was hand sanitizer by the door upon entering. There are 8 tables with 4 seats at each table so a small group can come and dine in. Aside from dining in, you could also do takeout. If you live in the area you can have the food delivered for free. Overall I enjoyed my experience. I will be back to try their Birria Ramen.

LORD HAVE MERCY I WAS RESURRECTED BY THIS FOOD My friend heard good stuff from this place bc his coworker recommended and said it's up to par with legitimate tacos from MX. So of course...WE HAD TO TRY! Driving there is a WEE bit sketchy and you have to circle around for street parking but not terribly hard to find. Walking in around 8 it wasn't packed but I assume they get A LOT of takeout orders bc people were coming in and picking up. We placed our order at the cashier and they brought all our food out to us. WARNING: bc they do get a lot of takeout orders and people were coming in throughout the night to sit and eat, pls be patient for your heavenly food bc it does take a bit of time than regular taco places. FOOD ORDERED Chicken Tacos and Birria Tacos - phenomenal. Came in a hard shell but not the ones that just collapse in your hand. It is soft enough to keep all the meat in the shell. We dipped both of them In our soup that it came with and it was DELICIOUS. 1 order comes with 4 and that was good enough for this gal. Chips and guac- ordered for the table. Heavy on the onion but I loved it. We finished the WHOLE tub. Chips was salted beautiful and fresh. Drinks ordered were the tamarind sodas which my friends loved but I actually got a fresh watermelon juice that I saw another customer order. I loved it but my friends said it was heavy on the sugar. I'm sure you can ask them to do a bit less ALL IN ALL: GO HERE!! **Advice: Call 30-45 ahead, order takeout and eat it at one of the tables. Will save you some time waiting at the tables for your food*** By the end of the night this place was packed so come early and hungry! TA TA!

Wife and I ordered two birria beef orders via UberEATS. Each order came with 4 tacos and consomme. I requested for mine without onions and cilantro but unfortunately they made both orders without them so my wife didn't fully enjoyed hers as much as she would if they had the onions and cilantro. Nonetheless, it was our first time trying birria and definitely did not disappoint. We will be ordering from here again in the near future.

Best birria tacos I've ever had. The flavor is good, the meat is tender. The portion size is generous.

Ordered their Birria Tacos and it was super delicious will be coming back again for the Birria

I went to pick up some quesataco de birria for dinner. The ordering process was easy and they told me about 20 -30 mins wait but they would call me if they were ready before hand. Upon arriving I could tell they were a bit busy but they moved fast. I got there with 15 minutes to wait and they called me to tell me that tacos were ready. The place looked clean and it had cute decor. They only serve food and soft drinks here. And the person in the front was really nice. The birria tacos were pretty good, I would definitely go again. I feel like they might of lacked a bit of flavor but still really good! I recommend this spot, and they had a whole bunch of other things on the menu that looked tasty as well.

Had this door dashed lastnight, took over an hour. (Delivery went fast it was this place that seemed busy) anyway, one bag came, just tied not even sealed..I'll start off by saying we were missing an entire dinner! They did not include the chicken ramen, pretty upset about this and that they sent a silly receipt so I can't even see if they forgot it or the Uber eats stole it.. pretty inconveniencing when someone's whole dinner is not sent. And once delivered the restaurant was closed so I couldn't even call them. Anyway. We got the birritta tacos (4 count) and 2 with chicken and beef, We ordered cheese and got a shrimp instead.. another not so fun error when you don't eat shrimp!!!!!! Us and friends won't order from here again, seeing as so many errors was made .. when you order food, especially later at night you expect to get At least get half of it correctly. disappointed.

I was so excited when I found out that a place that does birria tacos was on Uber eats and delivered to me! I got the beef birria, shrimp birria and a side of chips with guacamole. Everything was packaged nicely. I really enjoyed the shrimp birria however I didn't love the beef birria and felt the consome was lacking some flavor. Also the chips were super hard and the guac was like a bowl of onions with avocado on the side. Probably wouldn't order from here again unfortunately

This was my first time trying birria tacos and I must say I definitely liked it. It took about 40 minutes for our food to come out, which for tacos was surprisingly long but the wait was worth it. The green and red hot sauces gave the tacos a nice spicy kick to it. I was not a fan of the broth dip, but if you place the radish and lime juice on top of the taco it gives it a great flavor. The taco was a bit greasy for my liking but the melted cheese on top of the chicken was delicious.

Uber eats Beef birria were filed with meat and cheese. The dipping sauce was fresh. 4 birria but on the smaller side and 1 tortilla each. Usually 2. Chicken. Urrito was juicy but no salsa, guacamole, or sour cream Fresh ingredients Authentic recipe Will return

Amazing food. Some of the best Mexican food I've had in the area. Birria tacos are soo good.

When I came to the store, it was filthy, but whatever. I wanted to speak to an employee because I ordered two things of tacos, beef eggroll, and elotes. I only received my tacos, and instead of acknowledging their mistake they just insisted I handle it through Uber Eats to get the refund instead of giving me the items. Poor, lazy customer service.

Definitely won't be back and not worth the trip compared to a certain food truck in NYC which is currently the gold standard for birria tacos! The tacos are way over spiced and lack cheese; the amount of cilantro sprinkled over the tacos makes it look like lawn clippings. The consommé lacks flavor and the amount given is lacking. Guacamole only filled half the container and chips tasted stale.

This place definitely gets 5 stars from me and my crew !!!! This hole in the wall spot is throwing down some of the best tacos I've ever eaten . The beef tacos are full of flavor and 4 come to an order and we wanted more when we were done. The tacos can be ordered with chicken, beef or pork . We asked what the best way was she said beef is the traditional way to go!! The dipping sauce that they serve with it is delicious I was drinking it out of the cup. I ordered 7 orders of tacos and only waited about 30mins which wasn't bad considering they were pretty busy when we got there . $13 for 4 tacos was a pretty good deal . The lady taking orders was super friendly . I also ordered a cantaloupe drink it was so good reminded me of my childhood when my mom would make. My daughter got Horchata also. All I can keep saying is . Keep up the great eats can't wait to come back !!

birria birria birria! birria ramen -- never seen before, but man this needs to be a thing. they basically take a tapatio flavored cup ramen, use the noodles and packaging, but they add birria consomme with onions and cilantro. for delivery, they had cooked the noodles with the broth, then put the noodles into the cup, and packaged the consomme separately, so the noodles didn't expand much, still good texture by the time it got to us. their birria tacos are pretty good, they offer more than just beef. i got the beef and the shrimp, both had cheese and onions/cilantro, but the beef wins out for me. i'll definitely be ordering from here again!

El Jardin had the best birria tacos with great portion size. It seems like they've made a portion adjustment which resulted in the tacos to become smaller, to the point where the dipping sauce is bigger than the entree itself... I was able to eat 2 tacos before their changes and would get full, now with the new portion I found myself still hungry after finishing them... I decided to then go with the birria noodle soup, but it had a bland taste. Hopefully they can revert back from these changes as the price wasn't worth the quantity.

Ordered delivery and overall, was quite bland and greasy. Elote, rice, and beans were all very good. Chicken and beef tacos were fairly flavorless and the shells were almost damp looking (grease). Chips were okay, nothing notable about them. $85 for two people; Wouldn't order again.

I agree my Son Oscar who suggested this place ....this spot was really good ....My wife & I had the Original Carnitas Tacos and we also had The Birria shrimp tacos.

The beef barria tacos were great. Cost about $15 which is about what I'd expect to pay. We were excited for the barria ramen but felt like the tacos were better. I'd recommend and get it again.

I have been dying to try birria tacos and I finally got the chance. I called in my order of beef birria tacos and the lady said it would take 25 to 30 minutes. When I arrived I parked on the street nearby. I walked in and the lady asked if I was picking up and I told her yes and gave her my name. I paid a little over $13 and left. When I dug in it was pretty good, very different with the dip and everything but tasty. I have to go back and try the birria ramen next.

El Jardin birria tacos are as good as they say they are. My husband and I purchased the beef and chicken tacos and they were soooooo good. Highly recommend!

The soup is a tad bit overrated but their damn tacos are so delicious!! Def worth giving a try!

After my experience at El Jardin this Saturday 2/24/24 I will never return. The Shrimp tacos were extremely salty. The lady in the front with green eyes had an attitude upon my arrival. I returned inside of the restaurant to ask them for a new batch, giving them the benefit of the doubt; I told them it may be possible their hand slipped when seasoning the tacos. They told me it wouldn't be possible because I already "bit into the taco" ....... How would I know how the food tasted? (The man in the front also inspected my food without any gloves and tried to return it to me. "Do you still want them?" He asked. I took a photo of the food after he dismantled it.) Anywho... they said a refund wouldn't be possible that they could however make a new batch but they would have to charge me all over again. Overall nasty customer service and behavior from the staff. Come to the restaurant if you'd like High blood pressure and DISGUSTING customer service. (Food photographed: shrimp tacos.)

Went to El Jardín for their famous birria tacos and I was pleased! The tacos were flavorful and the consommé was perfectly paired. I tried beef and pork and was pleased with both. The cilantro, onions and radishes that garnished the tacos were fresh and added great flavor. I would definitely recommend calling ahead to order as wait times can be long. I went on a Sunday and it was still pretty busy with takeout orders. Also parking can be a hassle as well. Definitely recommend parking on a side street and walking over if possible

Shrimp Tacos are 10/10!!!! I highly recommend these tacos! Service was excellent, dope spot!

Ugh so damn good. I got the beef birria tacos and my friend got the pork and beef birria ramen. Tacos were so delicious. 1 order comes with 4 medium/small size tacos and consommé. Next time I'd order 2 orders because I keep craving more! I didn't feel stuffed after one order but two might be too much. My friend liked her ramen a lot too.
