Fiesta Brava

I’m from Los Angeles and was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the Mexican food here. My husband and I enjoyed their carnitas tacos, rice, beans, chips, and enchiladas. All very tasty and will be returning.

Good, authentic Mexican food! Outside looks like nothing, little place in a strip, but don’t be fooled, food was great!

We stopped in here to grab some lunch on a whim. First I have to say if the customer base is primarily of the same ethnic background as the establishment it speaks volumes because you know you are getting authentic food that somebody’s mom would cook. We could t decide on much so we overordered and brought a lot of food home. We even grabbed some homemade empanadas to go. It’s real easy to get to off exit 8 on the nj turnpike.

Love there food, Eat here 2 or 3 times a week!!!

, I don’t give 5 stars but they have great food especially pollo apanado, aka empanisado in PR which is breaded fried chicken, I always order it with Tostones and the churrasco with fried egg is always good. I have the tiramisu today it was pretty good. I wish they had the tres leche or flan but that would be wishful thinking. They seem always have avocados which is always a plus.

Don’t be fooled by outside, the food was very good, large portions, and authentic mexican. Go, you will be happy.

Pretty good food here. Had a monstrous chicken burrito which was really good. The spicy green salsa was amazing. Theres just somethig about a small restaurant that makes it so much better then chains. I would stop here again for sure

Stopped in for a snack today. My husband and I both had a chicken tostada. I was very happy because it was not spicy at all. My husband was happy because it came with homemade hot sauce. The tostada was crunchy and chicken and beans were tasty. Nice helping of shredded lettuce and tomato on top, along with sour cream. We will be back for a full meal next time.

Well priced, generous portions of great tasting Mexican that was ready in a flash, a must for the already hungry searching on Unilocal for a bite. The staff is super nice which always builds an appetite. We took our enchiladas and quesadillas to go, and were satisfied greatly. Delicious and authentic. Everything I have tried here is amazing. They are famous for their fish tacos. But they have a huge variety on the menu. BYOB

Not sure how I ended up here but after reading a few reviews, I figured I’d try it out. Didn’t get my hopes up, as I’ve been disappointed back home. Walking in, it reminded me of small Mexican dives in Chicago. Not fancy but clean. I ordered three different tacos just to have a better overview of their kitchen. Had the al pastor, carne asada and ordered the beef tongue. While they got that ready I ordered some guacamole. It was fresh but in my opinion, it should have tomatoes, jalapeños and a splash of lemon juice or a slice of lemon as mom and dad taught me. Good portion, but the styrofoam plate threw me off guard. I received my tacos and noticed that my beef tongue taco was chicken. Didn’t mention it to the server as I figured I’d have some pollo con chicken instead. Tacos were a decent size, well seasoned, and filling. The carne asada should be skirt steak but not sure what cut they use here. All in all, it was decent; if I was hungry, I’d visit the joint. Prices are decent and service was prompt.

I grew up surrounded with authentic Mexican food. This is not authentic. The is OK food but leans more towards the Ecuadorian pallet which is the other type of fair served here.
The service was prompt, the portions generous but it’s not a Mexican restaurant.

Food was ok, but I ordered a carne asada burrito and got a rice burrito with barely any carne asada inside. Definitely not worth it. Can’t say that I’ll ever be back.

Delicious. Only complaint I have is that the burritos are too big, a complaint that I like to have.

Great authentic and REAL Mexican and Central American restaurant. Tacos are outstanding. Shrimp in Mexican sauce is out of this world. Homey place. Not fancy!

We enjoy this tiny restaurant in the strip mall. Althougha bit of a wait for your food, the food is pretty good and they give you large portions.

Ba damn!!! I frequented here back in the day when I worked in some small biotech company near Cranbury. The company got absorbed. I had to part ways.
So, back in the day before Unilocal wasn’t mobile. I found this place on a weekend for lunch. Its a local place for where only mexican people eat. More like working mexican men. I’m sure gringos come here and I am pretty sure I’m not the only chino to have step foot in this place.
I always skip the free chips and salsa. It’s just filler. Okay maybe a couple of chips. They are fresh enough that I think are made that day at least. I usually get tacos and a Mexican soda or a hochata if I’m lucky.
I was recently there as I was driving my co-​worker for a conference. We stopped for lunch here because its so near the turnpike. We both got the chicken poblano. Supposedly, mexico’s national dish. It was eh. Seemed like the mole was old/​burnt. Or it was just not my thing. I did notice the Mexican customers all ordered the special of the day. The chicken soup. Not the campbells kind but the kind made with a gallina (old chicken). Bones and the film of oil/​fat on top of the soup. We were the only out of towners getting something else. I also, ordered 2 tacos al pastor but that was just eh too.
I prefer this place over the other mexican place down the road because of the parking lot. 1 time a jerk Highstown police followed me from the Spartan gas station after I visited my father from the nut house. He pulled me over for making an illegal left to this place for dinner. I told him I came from Trenton and was stopping for lunch before going back home in north Jersey. Luckily, he told to watch the sign next time and be careful.
I’d eat here over the highstown diner. So, what if Guy ‘frosted tips feiwhatsohowever you spell his nam’e came here.
