Scratch Taco 147 Maplewood Avenue, Maplewood, NJ 07040

"I love scratch taco and are there numerous times and have never been disappointed! This time my taco was just thrown together no cilantro. I also ordered a buffalo chicken and cheese empanada . My empanada had no cheese and the meat wasnt shredded like the first time i had it . It was chunks ! Also there was pink looking meat inside ! I am very disappointed!"

"Strolling through town a wanted a little snack to go with my healthy smoothie from earlier. I walked in and was warmly greeted by a cheerful guy. After checking out the menu, I asked him what his favorites were and he made all the tacos sound so delicious. I was kinda of leaning towards a bowl, but after hearing all the taco goodness I grabbed a Cajun shrimp taco to hold me over till later. Turns out the guy I was chatting with was the owner, Todd. Really great to interact with him, super passionate about this place. Service was fast, taco was $6ish, and it was really tasty. I should've grabbed a deal for three, but I'll be back to eat more another day. You should too!"

"This is a quaint little taco spot near Maplewood train station. It is worth a try if you are in and around looking for a quick bite. The seating inside is limited but they also got seating outside for the summer time. The service is excellent. They also have a frozen yogurt machine and cotton candy if someone in your group has a sweet tooth. They are also very accommodating and can swap meat for beans if needed."

"Great staff and great food. Came here on a whim after going golfing with friends. Small joint that picks a lot of punch. I got the Hawaiian fish taco, jerk chicken taco, totchos and empanadas. They were all excellent. The jerk chicken was a bit salty but had excellent spice. The tortilla fell apart on the fish taco. Toppings were probably on the wet side. Empanadas we’re awesome and the totchos were huge. Definitely will be back to try more items."

"Wildly impressed at this cute little place. My boyfriend and I drove 30 minutes out of the way to get here based solely on the reviews and I will say I’m glad we did. We got the Baja fish tacos, cauliflower tacos, street corn in a cup, and my bf had the cheeseburger crunch wrap. As the pescatarian of the 2 of us, my favorite was probably the cauliflower tacos. Crazy flavor. There’s a wall of hot sauces to try and available for purchase. My favorite was The General’s Grunt Green hot sauce. Happy to say this is our new taco spot and can’t wait to come back!"
