Good Mexican Food in Hoboken?

[dmj109]

I found a couple of older posts about Charrito's and Baja in Hoboken but was wondering if anyone has any current recommendations?

Thanks!

I love Taco Truck, but like someone said it's not really a sit down place (just a couple of tables and counter service).

Charrito's isn't bad, but a new place called Sabores opened on Washington St between 5th and 6th. I've only been once when some friends were coming into town and we needed a space that could accommodate a big group. They could not have been more accommodating, including asking for feedback since they had just opened that week, and everyone really enjoyed their food.

I was wondering about that place. That space has been about 5 different restaurants in the past few years.

Yeah, it sort of seems like a cursed spot unfortunately, but if you're in the mood for Mexican I'd definitely give it a try. It seems to be family-owned - I heard it is completely different people from the family who owned the last 2-3 restaurants in that spot. Everyone is very friendly and we enjoyed the food.

Good to know. Thanks!

charrito's is probably the best in hoboken, but mostly because there really isn't anything else. taco truck is good, but i think it's quite over priced for the portions. i would rather just go to downtown taqueria in jersey city.

there are a couple other latin restaurants that are pretty good. cucharamama, la isla, zafra kitchen.

The Taco truck is my go-to place. I like Charrito's, but not everything I've had was great, while I've never had anything at The Taco Truck that I did not like a lot.

That's it. Taco Truck is good but not really a sit down place for a group.
