3.0 of 5 stars. Good Mexican food but a little on the high end when it comes to price. They don't serve alcohol so definitely stop before you get there. They do load you up with water because the salsa is spicey...

4.0 of 5 stars. This is a good Mexican place in a small street on Princeton (looks like a house). The free chips are quite crunchy, and the salsa is very fresh (basically chopped onions, tomatoes and cilantro, not...

Yelp.com Review - by Jessica K.

4.0 of 5 stars. The food is amazingly delicious. It makes the parking hassle and the cash-only policy completely worth it. I've never been disappointed eating here!

Yelp.com Review - by Katya O.

3.0 of 5 stars. This place is OK--their food is average but quite overpriced. It really turned me off that it's in the Hispanic part of town but the locals can't even afford it. Better bet would be Taste of Mexico in...

Yelp.com Review - by Joanne K.

5.0 of 5 stars. Tortugas is the best Mexican restaurant I've found in/near Princeton so far. BYOB isn't ideal, having to get cash before coming can be inconvenient (there's not a handy ATM), and there is sometimes a...

Not Fancy, Just Great Food by Jason G. at InsiderPages

The best Mexican in/around Princeton. Pretty authentic stuff. Just a few blocks from Nassau. Great spot to drink a few margaritas and eat some enchiladas.

just so-so by Joe C. at InsiderPages

Very casual. Not for a fancy night out. My guests have had a wide range of opinion on the food. Some say delicious, others not impressed. I once got chased by a gang with bats when leaving this place.

4.0 of 5 stars. This is a can't miss authentic (non-chain) family-owned Mexican food restaurant. It's casual, BYO, and they only accept cash. Parking can also get dicey, but it's worth it. If you're hot-natured,...
