Taqueria San Jose - Waterford Twp

The chairs were brought in from Mexico. The food was delicious and the view was stunning.

I had passed by this restaurant a few times in the past and finally found myself in the area, so I decided to call and was greeted in Spanish! Authentic, check. They were open for dine-in, which was a pleasant surprise. When I arrived, I was impressed by the decor. If it weren't for COVID-19, I would have definitely organized a dinner date with friends here. The atmosphere was bright and cheerful, and it was great to see the restaurant following social distancing guidelines. I was pleasantly surprised to find that they had the 'fun meats' that I enjoy, such as Tamarindo de agua, lengua, tripas tacos, and menudo soup. I usually have to go to southwest Detroit to order these dishes, so I was thrilled that they were available here as well. And let me tell you, the food was absolutely delicious. I even ordered another taco dinner to go for my husband with carne asada and al pastor, I can't wait to see how much he enjoys it. While enjoying my meal, I noticed a steady stream of Latin customers coming in, which was reassuring to see. I almost forgot I wasn't in southwest Detroit! I will definitely be back when I'm in the area, and I might even bring my laptop since I noticed there was an outlet next to the booth in the back.

Although the restaurant is small, it has a very friendly and authentic Mexican atmosphere. A big plus for me was that there was no rice in the burrito. However, the tacos were not as good as I had hoped. They need more meat in them, even though I understand that meat can be expensive. I could count the amount of meat in the tacos without even touching them. Despite this, the food was still good and I would definitely return for more.

The chairs were imported from Mexico. Great food and the landscape was great.

I love Chilaquiles and they do good. You can also get a healthier meal here, such as Tacos mexican, Ceviche and custom Fajitas. The Moido Carne enchiladas are delish! Your desserts are amazing, Churros, Flan, Rumkuchen! Yum.
