This is the definition of a hole in the wall NJ restaurant, and it’s fantastic 

You can look at online reviews of places and think you have an idea of what you should expect, but nothing compares to getting a real-life review/recommendation of a place.

Jill Myra, our morning and afternoon traffic reporter at 101.5, gave me a recommendation for a restaurant in Princeton called Taste of Mexico.

I don’t think I’ve ever found a better hole-in-the-wall spot in my life. On Google Maps, there is a real note that says “down the alley, back of the building, 180 Nassau St, Princeton, NJ 08542.”

The restaurant isn’t visible from the road, so the note is helpful. What you’ll find down that alley is one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to.

Taste of Mexico is a tiny restaurant, about 10 tables in the entire place, that delivers some of the best Mexican food I’ve ever had.

I ordered a hard shell chorizo taco for an appetizer, and then three chorizo tacos for my main course. The tortillas were some of the freshest and best I’ve ever had, and the chorizo was cooked perfectly with a slight crispness to it. They give you a jalapeño salsa to pour over that adds some extra spice.

And for dessert, their tres leches cake is the way to go. It’s one of my favorite desserts, but sometimes places make theirs too wet. Not Taste of Mexico. Theirs was the perfect consistency.

They have tables and chairs out in front of the building too, which would be perfect to dine at on a summer morning, because they offer breakfast as well.

Although it’s off the beaten path, Taste of Mexico is a place you need to seek out.
