Los Amigos Restaurant

Ordered on Seamless (Sunday night) and waited over 1.5 hours when the wait time was only 30 minutes. Really disappointed. Not only did the food arrive cold, but the salsa was missing. I called to let them know and they mentioned a manager would call be back, no other solution. Not okay! Won’t ever be ordering from here again.

Will never order or eat here again. I’ve ordered twice from here and twice they’ve messed up. And the second time I never got my food… Gonna eat Taco Bell instead from now on… I’m all about supporting local businesses but this one just sucks…

For all the haters this is by far the best mexican food in jersey city, i will even dare to say better than 75% of jacksonn heights queens resturant. Yes at times they are slow but i realized they were making from scratch which is rare now a days i always enjoy my time there

Ordered here and had to cancel after waiting for two hours. You’d think that when you place a fairly large order (family dinner for five, not catering for the Super Bowl), that the person on the other end would realize that it may be important to communicate delivery lags because there might be hungry people who are waiting for dinner.
Nope.
Instead, you’ll get the standard «we already sent it out!», «driver just left!», «driver just texted to say he’s 5 minutes away», «driver is ten minutes away», «driver is outside your door», «driver said he’s two minutes away», etc etc etc.
So, two hours later, we’re stuck with no food and no idea if the driver even exists.
Judging from the looks of this place, I’m kind of glad I ended up having to dine from my vending machine. I’ll stick with Taqueria Downtown, thanks.

This place is delicious please don’t listen to the other reviews. It’s authentic Mexican, the way it should be. Sorry the menu isn’t translated but I’m pretty sure taco, burrito and carne are pretty universal by now. How about ask somebody? I know Mexican people seem scary to white people, but hey they tend to be friendly, fun-​loving people. Give this place a shot. You won’t find tacos made with beef from cows that receive daily massages or salsa made from tomatoes grown on the roof in an urban farm and it won’t be served by a guy with a mustache. What you will find is simple delicious food.

I give this place 2.5 starts, which rounds up to 3. I’m trying to like it, I really am, but I would not order again.
First, there is no really good Mexican food delivery in the Heights. I figured I would give this place a try since it is new. The food arrived within the quoted time, a good thing, but the tacos were bland and the meat wasn’t that good. The highlight was the fresh made guacamole, which had a little kick. If everything was prepared to that quality and tasted as good I would give this place a 5.
A 5 star rated Mexican place in Jersey City heights would make a fortune, but unfortunately, this place doesn’t cut it.

Not sure why this place has such horrible reviews, i’ve had all of the Mexican restaurants on central ave and they all seem pretty similar. This was my third visit and got chicken enchiladas and they were good! I went in ordered and took it home to eat so i’ve never tried delivery.

The worst place to have food delivered! The food was so disgusting that I had to throw it away! Am for sure disputing it with my credit card company!!!

Best place in Jersey City I’ve found for good authentic Mexican food. Worth checking out. The fresh guacamole is a delight!

Very good food. Very nice waitress. It’s expensive for what it offers though. Other, better places, with more ‘ambience’ charge less.

Soo I was walking around the hood… noticed this new place and I am all about supporting great small communities businesses. so today I ordered…10 minutes on the phone waiting .had to call again to find out they forgot about me… got the food… nachos n flautas. the only fresh thing I saw was the coca cola I ordered. no bueno.will never order again. I guess the only people that will order are people who do not know what a great flavor mexican food has… btw. not a Mexican here jejeje:.:0) soo sad

My boyfriend and I ordered tacos with bistec, nachos with crane asada, and a torta Milanesa de pollo. My boyfriend wasn’t impressed by the food. We have had better. I thought it was average but pricey for the food. It was the first time I have been there but I would much rather prefer going to taqueria in downtown jersey city. It is better food and cheaper.

Two of us stopped in for a late lunch, and we were very happy with our meal. We shared a complimentary dish of warm chips and a tasty black bean dip. Our two entrees were tacos al pastor (marinated pork, dish of 4) and enchiladas mole (dish of 3, with rice and beans), and both were delicious. The taco shells were extremely fresh, the pork was tender and flavorful, and the toppings (cilantro, radish slices, lime wedges for squeezing fresh juice), plus a green sauce on the side, added just the right accents. The mole had a delicious balance of cocoa and spice (not sweet, noticeably zingy, but not overly hot), and the shredded chicken inside was fresh and mild. The bill was $ 17 total.
The staff was friendly and attentive, and the interior of the restaurant looks very colorful and clean now that it’s been renovated. I hope Los Amigos does well. I look forward to going back.

I was really annoyed that there weren’t any English translations on the menu. It’s impossible to know what everything is, so we just stuck with the basics.
I’ll start by saying that, while nothing was bad, nothing was exceptional. My boyfriend and I got the chicken enchiladas, pork tacos and grilled steak tacos. The tacos were all pretty bland, even with the side sauces they gave us. I feel like the meat needed some seasonings. On the other hand, the shells tasted very fresh. As far as the enchiladas, they had a bit more flavor, but again could’ve used more seasonings. I understand that they just opened, so perhaps I’ll give the place another try in a few months. We’ll see.
