Welcome to Taquería María’s, where authentic Mexican flavors meet passion, tradition, and the finest ingredients. Located in Monroe Township, New Jersey, we are proud to serve a vibrant menu inspired by a rich culinary heritage and a lifelong dedication to the art of cooking. Our story begins with María, a young girl who, from an early age, was immersed in the world of food and culture. She learned the craft of hospitality and culinary techniques working alongside Greek restaurant owners, honing not only her cooking skills but also her entrepreneurial spirit. This experience laid the foundation for her first venture, Tapatio, which she opened in 1998 at the age of just 17.
Compact, no-frills, family-run eatery specializing in traditional, homestyle Mexican plates.

We ordered Tacos de Lengua, torta de milanesa de pollo and let me say, I was shocked to see everything was fresh made. The restaurant is very small, I was quick to judge. From the tortitas to the meat, everything was delicious. Our server Carolina was excellent for recommendations, as I normally don’t eat tongue meat. But I was happy I ordered it. Will definitely come here again.

We had the street corn, pupusas, shrimp chimichanga, and enchiladas rojas. Everything was delicious and tasted so fresh! The staff was very nice. Small restaurant but highly recommend!

Exceptional Nachos to Start!
We kicked it off with the fiesta nachos.. absolutely outstanding!! The starter came with an orange house salsa and a verde that had just the right balance of mild heat and flavor.
Unforgettable Entrée
The main course was incredible. Layers of flavor that left us genuinely happy. The beef was packed with richness, and the cheese was next-level delicious. My wife smiled the entire time, and we couldn’t stop laughing and enjoying every bite.
The Vibe
The space itself is cute, cozy, and intimate and a perfect for a relaxed night out.
Highly recommend trying it for yourself!!

Came here for lunch, im not sure what occurred but overall the experience was mediocre. Me and my coworker both ordered the same dish (Ceviche) but we had received something closer to aguachile. Im not sure if this is a regional dialect issue but it wasnt what I was expecting. Im not a picky eater and I love aguachile so I was okay with it. We finished our food and went to pay and this is where the issue arose. The Ceviche is listed as $15 on the menu. Im not sure what her name was but she charged me $18 for the ceviche and charged my coworker $20 for the same exact dish. We are not too happy about it and we will not be returning.

Great food. Period.
Fresh, flavorful, and cooked right. The tacos were packed, the meat was seasoned perfectly, and everything tasted authentic. No frills, just really solid Mexican food done the right way.
If you’re in Monroe and want something consistently good, this spot delivers. Definitely worth a visit.

I’m not sure what happened during my recent visit to Taqueria Maria’s. I’ve been here many times before and always had a great experience, but this time, both my husband’s and my dishes were a letdown. Normally, I would brush it off, but both meals were noticeably underwhelming and lacking in flavor.
I ordered the Empanadas with Al Pastor, which I’ve had before and loved, but this time it was a bit dry and just didn’t hit the mark. My husband initially ordered tamales, but was told they couldn’t make them vegetarian that day, so he switched to a vegetarian quesadilla instead. He found it to be completely lacking in flavor, which was especially surprising given how much we usually enjoy their food.
Another letdown was the table service. After a crowd left, a new couple was seated at the same table, but a large spilled drink under the table was left untouched. It seemed like an oversight, but still, it was pretty disappointing to see that they hadn’t bothered to clean it up, especially when it was so noticeable.
On a positive note, the service was still excellent, and the fresh chips and salsas were just as delicious as always. I’m hoping this was just an off day for them and not a sign of a bigger issue.

First time there and really like the small family type vibe environment and so was looking forward to the meal. So I ordered mixed seafood and mixed ceviche and unfortunately discovered that unless you really like shrimp I would avoid the mixed seafood dishes . They were 80% shrimp and very little bits of the other seafood like calamari, octopus ,etc so that was disappointing But we also got a fajita which was really good. And it looked like everything was very fresh. As to Service we had to ask for drinks three or four times but that was no big deal since there was only one server But sometimes at small establishments this happens which is fine
