A Mexican menu following original recipes offers you the taste you find in a restaurant in Mexico. We use tortillas prepared with nixtamalized Heirloom Corn to get the best tacos, enhanced with a variety of our house salsas, sides, and desserts to complete the experience.
We included vegetarian and healthy options in our menu, but also some of the popular street food we couldn’t leave out.
Please stop by to try our food, locally sourced when available, sustainable, and proudly local.

This is the BEST Mexican food we’ve had in a long time. We went in to get two tacos and had to go back for two more. The sauces! The flavors! Bravo. This is a casual little place with great street food and take-out. Don’t miss out on the Mexican Street Corn. I moaned out loud!!!

This is a great addition to Pennington! Carne asada and cochinita tacos, empanadas, and quesadilla were each delicious. Chips and guacamole were excellent. They have a salsa bar with several options from not spicy to spicy, so take your pick! Highly recommend this spot. I can’t wait to try the flautas and a family meal. BYOB

We stopped by La Unica today, and were not disappointed. The empandas were good, and the tacos were absolutely fantastic — so flavorful and tender. The fresh corn tortillas were soft just like they should be. This is by far the best Mexican food I’ve had in NJ.

So happy to have a Mexican restaurant of this quality in Pennington. We had the Pibil (pork) tacos and the beef empanadas. Both were incredibly flavorful! We are looking forward to trying their full family takeout meals. You may want to order takeout- they are popular! It’s bustling with all of the locals who are loving this new arrival 🙂
