   Mariposa is becoming our favorite spot in Newark. Walking in feels like home and we are always treated like family. It’s obvious that the employees all love their jobs, they get along and work great together (you don’t get that many places). Plus everything is made FRESH to order. We ordered the “Lenten” special, one of the best meals we’ve had there. Dos Equis beer battered cod, perfectly paired with Papas Rotas potatoes and delicious mixed greens with pickled onion and lemon vinaigrette dressing. Our party of 4 all ordered the same dish and there was not a speck of food left an out plates! I hope they offer this special every Friday!!

   We were visiting Newark for a hockey tournament. We stayed downtown at Hilton Garden and went here for dinner one night. It was excellent! The service, the food, the ambience…we loved it all! The avocado taco and the salsa / chips were our favs!

   Atmosphere was nice, service was good and so was the chips and salsa. Unfortunately three out of four at the table didn’t care for the food.

   Certainly better than average. We’ll try it again and try to get some different things.

   It’s a cute restaurant. The menu is a little limited, but there are vegetarian options for my son, so we frequent the place. Staff is always friendly, and they have good drinks. Food tastes excellent, although a little heavy sometimes.

    Our server was attentive and each dish well prepared- the mahi mahi and chorizo tacos are a meal by themselves! The mariposa margarita requires more than one sampling - we will all be back - it was a great birthday celebration.
