This is an excellent little taco spot! As soon as you walk in, you are greeted by amazing aromas that promise a delightful meal. They make fresh tortillas to order, which really takes the experience to the next level. I highly recommend trying the Birria Tacos—they're delicious! The flavor of the smoked brisket is incredible, but I did find the meat a bit dry, which was disappointing. The smoked chicken is also tasty, but I suggest you focus on the Birria and the Asado; trust me, they’re worth it.
On the downside, I was disappointed that I didn’t receive any limes with my tacos. I think it's something that should be automatically included without having to ask. On a positive note, they do...
Carlito's is fantastic! I first came across them at Garden State Plaza, where the mouthwatering aroma immediately caught my attention. When their food truck parked outside my building, I decided to try their Birria Quesa-Tacos, which are grilled tortillas with cheese that melts and clings to them. They were incredibly delicious! However, what truly impressed me and bumped my rating from 4 stars to 5 was my visit to their brick-and-mortar location, where I discovered additional menu items not available at the food truck—like NACHOS! Their brisket nachos might be the best thing I’ve ever tasted. I don’t often give 5-star ratings, but the brisket nachos alone are worthy of it. With all their ot...
Definitely one of the best taco spots I've ever been to. So far, their whole menu is amazing, but I highly recommend any dish with their brisket (their brisket is AMAZING) and their dulce de Leche churros. My only complaint is that they close this location during the middle of the year ????. I know they have a spot in Garden State Plaza and a food truck, but their Lyndhurst location is so convenient that I hope they decide to keep it open year round in the future. If you love tacos, you need to check out Carlito's!
We discovered this restaurant while heading to the dog park, enticed by the delicious aromas wafting through the neighborhood. We’re so glad we decided to stop in! The fusion tacos were excellent, with a strong BBQ influence. The staff were incredibly friendly, and the food was delicious. Don’t overlook this gem! Try the BBQ brisket, pulled pork, and plantain tacos!

Quaint little shop. Staff is very friendly and helpful. I ordered 3 tacos. Carne asada, fish and brisket. They were all amazing! The flavor profile for each were so great. I also got the dolce Leche churros. They were cooked perfectly and the sauce inside was delightful. Highly recommend stopping in.
Delicious food and a friendly, cheerful staff! We had a variety of tacos and loved them all. According to my son, the churros were top notch. Also, it's cool that they make the tortillas while you wait. Super fresh, yummy food! Highly recommended.
A hidden gem. I didn't know they were here until I saw them place at the NYC brisket competition! Great meats, you can order the bbq straight up without tacos too. Also highly recommend the loaded Mexican street corn!
The employees were amazing. I was leaving work a little late around the time they were closing, and they loaded our bowls. Food is always 10/10 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
