Excellent food / ambient. The Chicken Mole a must try.

Very good food, mom and pop atmosphere and clean. People were nice and food was authentic. Make sure to try the red and green salsa! Food comes so you season as you like. Just ask for salsa on the side. Portions are huge so come with an appetite (even then you'll probably leave with leftovers)

I've never been in person but the delivery is top notch. The food is excellent with a huge selection. They had things I (a white lady) had never seen before. Prices are very reasonable and quality is overall high.

Jesus was an amazing server. He accommodated my vegetarian sister in order to still serve us family style. Really great brunch experience

One of my favorite, authentic Mexican, restaurants in Union City. Good food and plenty of it, at very reasonable prices. Service is fast and the people friendly. They seem to serve their customers with pleasure. The place is small and there's normally only one server, but "Efficiency" is her middle name. Don't forget to leave a generous tip because they don't demand one and they won't hold it against you if you don't leave a penny. Please be proactive with your tip. We need businesses like el Mole Poblano to stay successful.
