A Mexican restaurant in New Jersey is serving up an ultra strict dress code — despite the fact that it’s on a truck route next door to a QuickChek convenience store.
Cantina 46 — off of Route 46 highway in Ridgefield –has a laundry list of fashion faux pas including: no plain white t-shirts, men’s tank tops/sleeveless shirts, beach attire, sweatsuit/athletic attire, excessively baggy clothing, flip-flops or slippers, work boots or inappropriate headwear.
“We don’t want to be like a regular restaurant, we want to be high end,” partner and manager Joaquin Molina told The Post. The clothing regulations — which are posted on its website and a sign on the front door — start with “no plain white tees.”

My favorite Mexican restaurant in the world is La Placita in Albuquerque, which is in an eighteenth-century building.
Love La Placita!
Some of the best Mexican food I have had is in Minneapolis and St Paul. And I say that as a native Texan. There’s some fantastic Mexican food up there!
I guess no motorcycle cops allowed.
I saw what you did there.
Smart. Keep out the riff-raff.
Good for them. May their restaurant live long and prosper!
There’s probably a Mexican neighborhood in every town in the US.
Don’t ever open a restaurant in Alaska with that attitude. Even at the fanciest restaurants up here it’s not uncommon to see jeans and a t-shirt.
They’re going out of business soon.
My hometown. That used to be the Jingle Inn 2, where the teachers used to get drunk after school.
Or Arizona...If I walked into a Mexican restaurant, which I've been doing all my life, and someone told me I had on the wrong clothes, hat or shoes, I'd walk out and never go back.
“no plain white tees.”
So, no one that identifies as being “from Joisy”.
Funny, in 1976 I went to a Mexican joint in Chicgo that was way better than what I’d had in the Yucatan the year before.
I am remiss! 31 years here and I havent been there!
“my favorite Mexican food area: New Mexico (Az is a close second)”
If you get a chance, try Old Town San Diego
I’d have no problem finding a burrito elsewhere in my Red Wings.
Good question
Hey, cut the shit with the NJ bashing, ok?
We’re not all liberals here and I don’t know where you’re from but quite a number of the battles of the Revolution were fought here that resulted in patriot victories so zip it.
Loads of them in Ocean County too.
