Used to come here like 20 years ago. Seems their menu has shrunk. The gumbo was delicious. The Camptown Shrimp had a good amount of spice to it. The Jambalaya was probably the worst thing I had. It was super salty and dry. It felt like it was at the bottom of the container where it had sat and soak up all the sauce and dried out. Overall the experience was good.

I went to this amazing place tonight to try some new food because a friend recommended me and everywhere was closed today, at first I thought it was going to just be like one of those places and for some reason I never wanted to be there but as soon as I got here and we sat down my wife and I both just knew that this was going to be an amazing place, and it was. I definitely enjoyed the appetizers which definitely had a lot of kick to it was a really good two appetizers and then the main dishes came out and it was really something though not one of your casuals places and supposedly a chain I would definitely come back here in a heartbeat. This place is definitely got a personality and definitely quality some thing of which you were looking both for when you go out to a nice restaurant. The owner doesn’t believe in social media and stuff like that and believes in word of mouth the original method of marketing. But I definitely agree when I see a good place I’ll definitely go there again I’ll highly recommend Jose Tejas at 647 US Highway 46, follow my ig for more reviews, exact name as my profile

We ordered curbside pickup for dinner. Ordered the vegetarian empanadas, the blackened chicken appetizer and another chicken (gaoucho I believe). We arrived at the place in 25 minutes and parked at a spot behind the building as the pickup order instructed, text the number on at the sign there with the last name on the order and the spot we were in and immediately received a response that our order was ready and someone brought it out right away. Fast service with curbside still available when ever other places acts like covid is over. The food was amazing and I ordered the blackened chicken because the menu mentioned a spicy marmalade which did not disappoint. I would recommend the empanadas and the blackened chickens with the marmalade.
I'm only on me Jersey for a week but might go get food from there again before I leave.
Although this restaurant has almost no variety of dishes, all the dishes have almost the same ingredients, the food is more American than Mexican. but the atmosphere is great.
We had a great lunch at Jose Tejas! The camptown shrimp is still a little too spicy, but the first few bites are fabulous. We shared a chicken enchilada. I had the most DIVINE grilled avacado with mango salsa and a delicious Margherita! I highly recommend!!
Very friendly staff, and the food is great too. They have a couple of vegetarian options as well. This restaurant is very popular, be prepared for wait times for a table, but moves along pretty fast.
