La Fortaleza - Garfield

It's a nice place to have drinks. The food is okay. The service is slow due to the high human volume. The place is small, so I recommend you go a bit early, it is packed.

The place is wonderfully decorated, very colorful and exciting. the workers seemed friendly and our waitress answered all my questions. menu items are able to be customized to accommodate your dietary needs. vegetarian fajitas came with a lovely variety of veggies that i would never expect to find in a fajita but they worked so well. drinks are tasty and STRONG. be careful! haha also the guac was near perfect- one of the best i ever had. i think the only downside is it is so poppin that the seating may be a bit cramped if you go when its crowded. worth it though.

One of the best places in NJ for Mexican food. Super authentic, very nice staff, good portions and AMAZING drinks. Sopa de mariscos literally had a spoon full of seafood with each scoop. Burrito with steak had a whole steak in it. And the taste was amazing! Highly recommend!!! The atmosphere is wonderful, cheerful, and playful. Decor adds to it. A perfect place for any celebration, even if it’s just a date!

We had the opportunity to have dinner here before the crowd joins. It was lovely. The menu has alot of options, not an overwhelming amount. Some of the prices seem a little high, example the soup for $16, personally I wouldn't pay that much for soup however the food is flavorful and the portions sizes were big; definitely took what I couldn't finish as leftovers. The staff is friendly and attentive. Our waitress checked on us several times which was nice. I'd recommend the Pineapple salmon and gauc has an appetizer, it comes in the cutest ceramic buggy. 10/10

Great ambience, great food and affordable prices! Would Highly recommended it! The service was also great!
