"First time ordering from Tino's, and the Chimichanga Tri-Color is now my favorite Mexican dish from any restaurant in the area. Outstanding! Generous portion, fantastic flavors and a great mix of textures - the veggies inside the chimichanga gave it a wonderful crunch. The rice and beans were aso super flavorful and the little side salad was delicious, and not a throw-away like most places. Wish I could give it more stars - I'll be ordering this dish again soon!"
"Undisputed Tacos al Pastor king. The shrimps on the Ensalada de Camarones a la Parrilla / Grilled Shrimp Salad were grilled deliciously and featured a generous shrimp count of eight. Restaurants usually min max the shrimp portion to somewhere between paltry and disputed card transaction, so it's not only filling but heartening to get a fair deal in the shrimp department."

"Great quality ingredients across the board, especially the beef and pork, which were noticeably better than most other Mexican spots in Red Bank. Upscale take on Mexican food with a few standout dishes, though portions run small for the price point. (Torta) Carne Asada Bread was incredibly soft and the steak was well seasoned, though it’s a smaller sandwich than a typical torta. (Tacos) Arabes Good meat but came across more like an unmelted quesadilla, could’ve used more cheese. (Appetizers) Elote (Mexican Street Corn) Fresh corn and authentic prep, nothing to complain about. (Quesadillas) Carne Asada was Our favorite item of the night, flavorful steak and well executed, a little small on the portion size, especially the rice and beans"

"I dont usually do reviews even when I really like a place but I have to give them their stars. The mini pancakes were so delicious and still hot when I received them! (Probably due to the fact that I wasnt far from it but still). The Elote was juicy and sweet and tangy and all around yummy. They were generous with the toppings and it was so carefully wrapped none of the toppings came off. Will be back! Chefs kissss"
"Really an amazing store, ordered the Mini Pancakes for the first time a few weeks ago and have ordered every other day since. The fluffy texture, sweet and fresh taste, and it's so many mini pancakes as well for a great price. Definitely a new favorite of mine, very friendly on the phone as well. RECOMMEND!!"

"got the mexitaco salad which was satisfying in all ways from amt of chicken (which was a lot) to the bite sized everything. nacho fries is your fries with the right amt of cheese sauce that didnt make it too soggy nor too dry. always love ordering from these restaurants in Intl. bites!"
"Chicken biryani was much spicier than expected, with no mention of spice level on the menu. For $17, the portion was overwhelmingly rice-heavy, with only 2 drumsticks and a very small piece of breast, which felt like poor value. The rice was also noticeably oily. The overall experience was made worse by poor communication. When I called the listed number, there was no introduction of the business, and I had to say hello multiple times before getting a response. On top of that, the order had to be reassigned after a driver left without the food, which added to the confusion and delay. While that may not be entirely on the restaurant, it reflects a lack of coordination. Even small details were disappointing—the utensils provided were extremely small and impractical. Overall, this was a frustrating experience from start to finish. Between the lack of clarity, poor value, and communication issues, I would not order again—especially with better halal options in the area."

"Over Easy Kitchen this morning was simply amazing. I've been wanting to try it on DoorDash for a while and it always slipped my mind or it was closed. This week I was driving in Holmdel and saw the sign and I said I have to order soon. Today I was looking and I really wanted to have steak and eggs and I was thrilled to see that I could get hard boiled eggs with my meal. That is my just choice styled egg. Definitely recommend keeping that choice on the menu. Now don’t pull my foodie card but I like my steak with no pink visible and I was able to order it to my liking and it was just amazing. The steak had no pink, flavored and juicy. Well seasoned. Thank you O.E! I had my hard boiled eggs and I love avocado toast. I got some home fries to go along with it and it was seasoned to perfection. Everything was amazing. Thank you O.E.K. I can’t wait to come in and dine some! "
