Momma's Tacos

The first thing you're greeted with when you go here is beautiful window art. The inside decor doesn't let you down either. The food was top tier. I had the steak and chicken tacos and my wife had the enchiladas. My children had the quesadillas and we all split some nachos. Everything was incredible. The meat was so tender and perfectly seasoned, and the toppings were super fresh. The staff here are fantastic. They're so friendly and attentive, making sure everything is just right. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers and love what they do. And the best part? The prices are really reasonable for the quality and the portion sizes you get. Such a great value!

Updated review: the restaurant has come a long way since I was first here when they opened. The food is simply delicious and great value for the money. I recommend the steak burrito and grilled cactus! Beautiful decor, great service. Unfortunately all the food tasted the same and was dry. I ordered 3 different meats in my tacos and everything was quite samey. I was here over the summer and I loved it but I just visited this week and the quality was a bit different. Hopefully they improve.

The food here is FANTASTIC! Very fresh, very authentic. The staff was very nice. The location is great if you want to take a nice stroll downtown after your meal. I will definitely be a regular at Momma's Tacos.

**Revised** Swang back thru MT's to give them another try and overall I think they moved the bar up to a 6.75. I have a ton of respect for maintaining a eatery in this market and keeping it consistent with that being said heres the skinny This is a old fashioned simple home style version of Mexican...no vertical spit roast for char, no bells n whistles just basic. It's fine but lacks that wow factor. The asada is slightly better than I remember and still no pineapple on the al pastor although the flavor on the pork & the steak was good it was all very dry. These tacos were not messy enough lol. Still the same on the rice n beans with both being very tame and reserved. The pico is good but needs a lil punch. 🔹️🔹️🔹️🔹️🔹️🔹️🔹️🔹️🔹️🔹️🔹️🔹️🔹️🔹️ Recently had an opportunity to try MamaT's and the experience was more or less what I expected. If I had to put a number on it I'd give it a 6.5 which is wayyyy better than some of the other area venues. Tried their street tacos and ordered asada, al pastor, and chorizo along w/a side of rice&beans. Everything came out fairly promptly though you could see they were all worn out from n overwhelming day (they were sold out of a decent amount of items). The portions were pretty much standard for street taco joints. The rice & beans were ok ... Might try it again we'll see there's room for improvement here.

We come here often. The food is very good and the service is friendly. They spice the protein well. We have tried multiple different meats and have not been disappointed. Every visit we get empanadas with ground beef. Sometimes they are the reason we come ;)

Came here on a recommendation from my guy Lou at Guitar Center and boy did he do me right. This place is awesome. Incredible food, pretty casual and easy. Delicious.

Too good!! I got the veggie tacos without cheese & sour cream (to make them vegan). The tacos are small, but that’s the style tacos they are! You can always order more!! The staff is so friendly and welcoming. I can’t wait to go back, such a great addition to New Milford.

Not all Mexican restaurants have that unique flavor. This cosy Mexican restaurant I ran into at the Irish festival, had incredible Guacamole, the freshest fruit cups, and Chorizo with nacho chips, ND cheese was amazing taste, I had to stop by their restaurant. The restaurant is a very cozy place with lots of home decor, available stree parking, and accessible, dine in or out. Food delightful, I ordered the Chichen Enchiladas with corn tortillas, fresh Jamaica drink (Hibiscus) very delicious. I was not expecting a ready to go box for my food, and pay 1st before you eat, the roasted pork was seasoned differently that I am not use to, all restaurant have there preference. Extremely sweet bilingual (Spanish) staff.

We had a variety of tacos, nachos, soup, chips & guac, an empanada, and a taco salad. Everything was absolutely delicious, so fresh and flavorful. Everyone working there was so nice and helpful. We had never been there before, so we had many questions. They were so patient. At one point, "Momma" came out to talk to us. (I wish that I remembered her name. Ugh!) She was so kind and genuinely concerned that everything was perfect. The restaurant itself was very clean and well decorated. With large windows, there is plenty of natural light. The various songs playing in the background made us feel like we'd been transported to Mexico City, Momma's hometown. You have to do yourself a favor and make a trip here asap.

Good mexican cuisine! I got a takeout burrito that was a great size, though the guac and sour cream on the size did not match. A simple burrito with good flavors and textures especially the beans but did not blow me away by any means. I'm sure the tacos are much more special than this average burrito. Not especially impressed, but no complaints!

I ordered a plate of 4 chicken tacos, a side of rice, a side of chips, sour cream and soda. I asked could they substitute the pico de gallo for salsa? Only at an extra cost. Since there were absolutely no prices visible, I was told my total was shockingly $32. Everything I ordered was a charge, and at a higher rate than expected. The chicken tacos were average, the rice was tasteless, the sauce had a smokey flavor which I personally did not like. The homemade chips were great so later that day while at a farmer's market I purchased corn salsa which was a huge improvement. The service was friendly. If I was a local I would most probably NEVER eat here again.

Located right off the green in New Milford. Parking on both sides of the street. It is small inside with lots of great decor. The staff is very friendly. Lots of great choices made fresh right in the kitchen. The order took a little longer than expected, but it was a Saturday night and they were busy. They have takeout, dining, outside dining, and work with Uber and other vendors for delivery. The items were cheaper than I thought they would be. We got a few things to try. We tried the pork and beef empanadas. The beef was better than the pork. Both were cooked great. They were crispy in the middle, but soft on the end. I've had many empanadas where they are too hard to eat the ends. Not here. We got a steak quesadilla which was great. Sour cream, fresh guacamole, and pico de Gallo on the side. We also got chorizo and enchiladas. The chorizo and sauce was very good. However, it was not rolled and a little hard to cut through. Probably will not order that again. Overall great experience. Will definitely be coming back to try the Mexican street corn and nachos.

The food at Momma's Tacos never disappoints. It's always fresh and tasty. The staff is very welcoming. I wish this place was a little closer to where I live so I could go more often. I really like it!

My friends were excited about meeting here for lunch today. I was the only one who had never been there before. Not sure I understand the adoration. My tacos were meh. Didn't realize they didn't come with any sides, so that was it, 4 chicken tacos that were cool and uninspired. Maybe an off day. I'm willing to give it another try. Service was fine. Not much heat in the dining area.

Glad we stopped in today! Their guacamole is amazing! Nachos Supreme we're great as were the empanadas. This is the way Mexican good is supposed to taste. Fresh and Delicious. E will return.

Wow! What an unexpected treat! We went there yesterday on a recommendation from my sister in law as we were passing through the area. She said "you may even get to meet Momma!" Not only did we meet this gracious, warm, kind woman, but we enjoyed a delicious lunch. My nachos supreme with chicken, his chicken tacos, and my college aged son's torta (delicious warm pressed sandwich) were all fantastic. Momma came out to say hello and we requested spicy sauce and she whipped up a green sauce on the spot for us which was indeed extra spicy but also somehow perfect and I would buy it by the bottle if that were an option. Craving fresh delicious authentic Mexican? Go there! I will we back whenever I'm in the area for sure.

Ordered a burrito for takeout. Great care was taken when boxed up to separate the lettuce from the burrito so it wouldn't become wilted. Very delicious. Very pleased with everything!

Ordered take out food from this restaurant, and my dining party was very impressed with the quality and flavors of all the dishes. Portions were generous but not overly so. Packaging was biodegradable for the most part. When I picked up the food, I wished I had eaten in the restaurant. The ambiance was so warm bright and inviting. Lush plants are hanging on the wall, and the decorations are in vibrant colors. I will definitely be back.

One of our favorite places for an easy delicious dinner with our kids. Alejandra is very sweet and staff always smiles! Love the food... highly recommend!

Rockstar service. Suddenly needed to feed the crew at lunch. Everybody wanted tacos, so I hit Momma's right as they opened. Their tacos, as always, were excellent lightly garnished bites. Meat seasoned perfectly (we got one of everything except the lengua). I only wish they would lightly grill the corn tortillas...but that's a minor oberservation. They took care of us and the crew was very happy.

Amazing food. Very kind staff. Momma even came out to talk with us and ask how our food was! We ordered all across the menu. It was all amazing.

Came today for lunch as we were in the area. Love authentic Mexican but this was just average. She had a burrito, it was good but falling apart, not wrapped tight like usual. I had taco dorado - they were out of beef so had to get chicken. Menu said pulled chicken and it wasn't pulled chicken, it was plain strips of chicken rolled into a taco. 2 little strips, no flavor no spice nothing. The pico was fresh and had a good taste. Empanada was good but again not a lot of flavor. This place is an hour from home so I won't be back and even if I'm in the area I probably wouldn't go back. Flavor just not there. If you live in the area it's probably the only authentic Mexican around so u have no choice.

Chicken taco -- very dried out chicken meat, not fresh tasting at all. Pork burrito was pretty good. Al pastor tacos were MUCH better than the chicken.

I was driving thru, and stopped here based on some good reviews. Maybe I hit them on a bad day, but this was totally underwhelming. Just went with straight tacos, Al Pastor. Got 3 very lightly filled taco's. Small amount of cubed meat. Taste ok, but really nothing special. I thought it was totally hysterical that she gave me the buzzer thing, telling me it would go off when my food was ready! The place is like 100 sq ft with 4 tables and I was the only one there. Bizarre. Not worth the stop for me. Maybe there are better things on the menu.

Great tacos and a very friendly staff. It is a small family type place that focuses on on good food and friendly service.

Emoladas were just phenomenal. Best mole sauce I've ever had. Momma even came out to talk to us. Can't recommend highly enough. We'll travel to New Milford just to eat at Momma's again!

I've eaten here twice both times good experience. Friendly service. clean and cute decor.

First time here during my lunch break. I ordered the veggie quesadillas, with beans. It was absolutely delicious! It came with pico de gayo, sour cream, and red&green sauce. The red sauce was my favorite. Even without the sauces, the beans were flavorful, along with the veggies. There was a line upon my arrival but it went by quickly. I loved the decor for Christmas! Their native scene was super cute! I was eyeing the burrito, which is something I'll be ordering next. 1000/10!

Outstanding. Alejandra does a beautiful job of cooking delicious food with love and care. We placed a big order and the food was meticulously prepared, delicious, fresh, and simply out of this world. I've been all over the world and hands down this was simple the best food ever. Not greasy, not salty, perfectly seasoned. I can't say enough good things about the food or the service. Do yourself a favor. Eat here.

Really cute spot in downtown new Milford, wide variety on the menu at affordable prices.

New favorite spots for authentic mexican food! Would leave 10 stars if I could! Welcome to the neighborhood!

Imagine your favorite Mexican food truck inside the cutest and cleanest restaurant! Now add two proprietors who greet you with warm smiles. That's Momma's in New Milford. The food is great, the vibe is festive and the parking is a breeze. We are already looking forward to our next visit.

Treated my sister to a pre-birthday lunch here on Thursday which we both enjoyed! Two enchiladas, a shared tray of nachos and some hibiscus tea or something like that (I don't remember), but everything was delicious! Very cute spot with great views of downtown. Will be back! Thanks!

Short review. Called to place a takeout order, a girl answered the phone saying "Please Hold" and 10 mins later she hung up the phone. Too bad, needed to place an order for a house warming event. First time calling too. 0 Stars based on service.

Cute little Mexican restaurant just talked to Green, in New Milford authentic Mexican cuisine. With relatively limited menu but many selections still. The restaurant is owned and managed by a lovely woman. Very friendly staff and excellent food.

Totally legit! Traditional, Tasty tacos. Very clean interior. Very friendly staff. Highly recommend this place if you are looking for good food.

Woo wee!! That's great Mexican food in New Milford, CT. Had an afternoon snack with my son and loved it. Delicious empanadas that tasked like a grandma hand made them in her kitchen with care. Also had Mexican Coke in bottle along with chips and guacamole. 5 stars and very tasty. Will be back when I return for visit to Connecticut from California.

I was at NM hospital and wanted food nearby. I ordered a chicken quesadilla. It was hot, delicious and the pico de gallo and guacamole were freshly made. I would recommend this restaurant if you like this type of food.

You can check my review history to see that I never write these, but had to step up for Momma's. I stopped here while visiting and the experience was wonderful. The service was impeccable and the staff is so friendly. I even watched the owner take time to encourage a kid to eat something he never had before, with what seemed to be decent results. Most importantly, the food is delicious and reasonably priced. This place is a gem!

Great place to eat. Service was extremely friendly, the business is super clean including the bathroom. Fresh food and the guac is super fresh. Got a awesome steak quesadilla for $10

Excellent - fresh, tasty - authentic Mexican food, best Mexican food I've had in a very long time. Owner and staff are very friendly and attentive. Don't listen to Cameron - if you want fast Mexican - go to Taco Bell!!!

The freshest ingredients and lots of love go into making all the yummy menu items. My favorite is the enchiladas suizas. It's a great spot to grab a quick bite or take it to go. The staff is so super friendly and accommodating! Definitely a great addition to the town.

Great new addition to downtown New Milford, serving traditional Mexican dishes from an established menu and occasional specialties. We got great recommendations with flexibility of ingredients, original beverages (Jarritos! Cane sugar sweetened Coca Cola!) in a modern and clean setting. I can absolutely recommend this to anyone

Delicious, authentic food that is reasonably priced. Momma's Tacos is a welcome addition to downtown New Milford. Everything I have eaten so far has been great. My favorite menu item are the huaraches. The tacos are delicious and I love all the meat options. My only gripe is that the tacos are only sold in sets of three. If I'm still hungry, I can't just order another taco, I have to order three more. Would greatly appreciate an option for single tacos! Other than that, Momma's Tacos is great and I hope they're here to stay.

This place is a MUST try! I moved to New Milford from Los Angeles last year and have been disappointed time after time with the "Mexican" food in Connecticut and New York. Last week I was told that there was a new taco spot opening in town... My first thought was "oh please" with my eyes rolling so far behind my head . On a whim I decided to give it a try..not really expecting much. Holy S***t..was I blown away. It literally brought tears to my eyes. After the first bite of my carne asada burrito I was immediately whisked back to warm, sunny southern California. Alejandra the owner/chef is so sweet! (and from Mexico city btw no wonder the tacos are so bomb) she said all of her recipes are her own and that she had a secret spicy salsa that is off the menu for her patrons that like spicy ! I poured them all over my carne asada (grilled steak) and pollo asado (grilled chicken) tacos and boy was it spicy! Like my grandma's salsa. The al pastor quesadilla was to die for! The food here is delicious and authentic. The first place I've had here that gets carne asada correct..perfectly flavored..not too salty, but tastes like more than just grilled beef. Al pastor was fabulous! The hint of pineapple and balance of spices was beautiful please eat here and spread the word! This place needs to have lines around the corner ..people need to drive from all over the northeast to get a taste of how Mexican food is supposed to be done !

Honestly, do yourself a favor and GO HERE. This place had the best tacos and the best Cochinita. If you've never had Cochinita, don't worry, I didn't either. And it was the best meat I've eaten in a while. Went with 5 other friends and everyone was satisfied. 10 stars if I could.

great food, great service, great vibes! they go above and beyond to ensure you have an excellent experience!

Great new addition to the New Milford green. Recently opened family run business. Menu looks great. Service friendly and quick. I had tacos which were very authentic - order comes with three small tacos with meat of choice. Onion, cilantro an salsa. Everything looks tasty ... can't wait to come back and try more of their menu items. Wishing them continued success.

This place is excellent with their flavors and authenticity. They are very pleasant and will definitely give you suggestions on to eat for your specific pallet. Place is a bit small with no outside seating and a bit on the pricey side

Tortillas hand made, meats cooked fresh by Alejandra (momma herself) and another family run business opened up on our very own town green. Had the pleasure of eating in one night and loved the experience. The food was hot and fresh, everything made with care, extremely affordable. Alejandra herself was so sweet and welcoming, her Jency was very professional. Definitely will be coming back!!

Thrilled to have Momma's Tacos in town! I've only tried the soft tacos but enjoyed them very much! Great addition to the Green!

Quick service and simple delicious dishes make this restaurant an absolute must. Hidden on a side street in New Milford Mommas Tacos doesn't disappoint. Have returned multiple times and their food has been consistent each time. Try the enchiladas suiza!

Not only was the food amazing (GREAT nachos), but my daughter dropped her little tiny plastic toy in the garbage, and one of the owners went through the garbage and found it. It was a wonderful act of kindness, and just shows that that generosity and genuineness shows up in the dishes, too. Five stars all around, phenomenal, fun, great energy, lovely decor and vibe.

Excellent fresh food. Highly recommended. Slightly off the New Milford Green it is slightly hidden from view but so worth well visiting.

After reading the other 5- star reviews I decided to go here for lunch while visiting family in New Milford. I was sorely disappointed unfortunately! I do not understand the other reviews because this restaurant was a misstep for me. Staff is friendly, space is clean but it ends there. I ordered the guacamole as a side dish which came from under the counter in a plastic container and tasted stale and store bought...nothing fresh or homemade! Wow. Then it took 20 MINUTES for 3 tacos to come out of the kitchen, this place was not busy, at the time there were maybe 3 other diners. Wait time was horrible. When I finally got the food it was bland and the girl who worked the counter told me they were out of mild sauce and asked if I wanted hot which I declined. If you ONLY have 2 sauces you would think they would keep them stocked. I will not be back. I love authentic Mexican food and this place was a joke. I'm curious if the other menu items were a better choice but EVERYTHING on the menu should be fresh, tasty and made at an appropriate wait time for the lunch crowd. (Also thought the fake plants everywhere were a tacky touch with them literally being next to a florist with live Cactus just a thought!) all in all 3 stars for cleanliness, friendly staff and hours.

Oh my gosh this food was SO good! It was served quickly and was so delicious. I can't wait to try everything on the menu

I sort of want to keep this place MY secret... it's super and the real deal. The fillings of the Enchiladas and Empanadas show real cooking talent. Usually Mexican food is hidden under a barrage of cheese and you can't tell the filling from Chicken or beef, it's just a pulp. Not here... just a great attention to seasoning and ALL THE DETAILS of Mexican cooking- the filling, the tortilla....
