“ Authentic Flavor That Keeps Us Coming Back El Macho isn't just another Mexican restaurant; it's a taste of genuine, home-cooked Mexican cuisine. We've dined here multiple times, and each visit reinforces our love for this hidden gem. The food is consistently outstanding. You can tell they prioritize quality ingredients and traditional recipes. Every dish bursts with flavor, proving they're not cutting corners. A definite must-try is their Dirty Fries. Whether you opt for the steak or chicken, you're in for a treat. The combination of toppings and perfectly cooked meat is simply irresistible. My wife, a chilaquiles aficionado, swears by theirs. The chilaquiles are always on point, with perfectly crispy tortillas and a vibrant, flavorful green sauce. Yes, there's a generous amount of sauce, but that's part of the authentic experience! You can easily scoop some out if you prefer less, it doesn't detract from the overall deliciousness. Beyond the food, El Macho offers a relaxed and enjoyable dining experience. The ambiance is very casual, perfect for a laid-back dinner. The restaurant is spotlessly clean, which is always a plus. The service is consistently excellent, with friendly and attentive staff. It's also worth noting that the noise level is comfortable, allowing for easy conversation. Regarding parking, street parking is readily available, though remember to use the ParkMobile app to pay. If you're looking for authentic Mexican food that tastes like it came straight from a family kitchen, El Macho is your place. We highly recommend it and will continue to be loyal patrons. ”

“ I love the burritos here! They come with a big serving of fries and lots of sauces on the side. It holds up really well for delivery. ”

“ Absolutely delicious and authentic! Probably the best Mexican food I've had in NJ. From the guac to the birria tacos, I was in absolute love. Service was fast and friendly and I want to eat here at least twice a week. ”

“ Great authentic Mexican place in Harrison. Everything was freshly made, the frozen pineapple drink was especially awesome. Server was helpful and very nice as well. ”

“ Ever since I discovered this local gem in Harrison, it has stayed on my agenda whenever I pass by This small Mexican restaurant has some of the best tacos in NJ. And, I don't know this because I'm Mexican. It's because the ingredients and taste are similar to the Mexican food I had while visiting California, where I discovered what authentic Mexican should taste like! They used to have a crazy $1 taco deal, where you could choose your own mix of taco meat options, but that's over now. They bumped up the price to 4 tacos for $8, and you have to order 4 of each type. They have other specials also posted on signs in front and on the menu, like $30 tacos for $45 and $12+ quesadillas. Nevertheless, the price is still worth it. The servers are always nice and cute mature Mexicanas. They have ample seating for indoor dining, but no outdoor seating. The restaurant is very clean and well kept with Mexican decor. I haven't tried any other dishes besides the tacos, which taste very good but could be more flavorful. The green and red sauces are also a bit watered down. Their chocolate milkshake was also good and made with real ice cream. However, it was a bit on the sweet side - which is common anywhere. Overall, you can't go wrong with this spot if you are looking for authentic Mexican food at a reasonable price. ”

“ It's a small quaint shop. Seating for maybe 30-40 ppl total. When you go in you can seat yourself. The service is fine nothing great nothing negative to say. The food was good. I had the shrimp tacos and my friend had the chicken burrito. They only have bottle beverages. We sat and chatted for about 2 hours and they didn't seemed bothered by that nor rush us out. ”

“ Delicious food and kind staff. The prices here are very reasonable and affordable. 4 Al pastor tacos for $10. They gave a generous amount of sauces and complimentary chips and salsa. The verde enchiladas were very good and very big portions! Overall, I would definitely come back and try their other foods! ”

“ What an awesome spot with great food. I really liked the fish and pork taco. The chicken wasn't my favorite but the service was amazing. Some of the ladies don't speak perfect English but they're very nice and attentive. The mango drink was so tasty. Highly recommend. ”
