A group of friends and I found one of the best Mexican food restaurants in Camden! The location was a little off of the beaten path and a little difficult to find for those of us who aren’t native to Camden, however, the delicious food that we found while there was completely worth every minute of the extra time that it had taken to find the place. If anyone in the S. Jersey area wants great food and amazing horchata you should take the time to find Taqueria La Calpeña at 300 N. 27th Street in East Camden, NJ!!! The food was relatively cheap as well, especially considering how great their tacos were! I ordered three tacos for $2.50 a piece before asking for extras. Of course, I had to ask for specialty tacos and asked to have nopales added. Nopales, otherwise known as a prepared and cooked cactus, is a delicacy among the culture and one of my favorite things to add to tacos. There’s no need to worry you won’t be pricked by any thorns. The staff here know what customers want and are careful to avoid doing anything to make customers dissatisfied. My friends and I from Rutgers-Camden University truly had a good experience while visiting their establishment. Taqueria La Calpeña is a children friendly restaurant with plenty of seating. There was a large family there during our visit and everyone seemed very happy with the service as well as the meals that they were served. Laughter echoed throughout the dining area during dinner. Personally, I enjoyed giving them my business so much that I will more than likely be stopping in often. The business has at least one flat screen television that was tuned in to a Spanish soap opera that played while we ate. Both friends that I had went there to eat with had not tried horchata before and I asked them if they wanted to give it a shot. They did. I’m certain that they will be trying the sweet, milky drink on their own again soon judging from their smiling reactions to the new refreshing drink that inspired their taste buds to respond with pleasure! The food was so amazing that no one had left anything to waste. We all asked for take-out boxes so we could enjoy the remainder of our meals from the comfort of our homes later that evening! Give the place a shot if you are ready to enjoy one of the finer Mexican dining restaurants in Camden. -Tony Ceballos

On Tues 3/10 around 12pm, I enjoyed an EXCELLENT chicken burrito during my lunch break between classes. There was plenty of parking available across the street and the service was super fast, even with a steady lunch-hour crowd! Our food came out hot and it was delicious. I look forward to going again and bringing some friends who would also enjoy the authentic Mexican food!

My cousin and I went to the restaurant on Saturday for lunch and we had chicken quesadillas which were very good. We ordered our food and within five minutes we received our meal. The woman who greeted us when we walked in was very friendly but one of the serves seemed to be having an off day.
