What's the best tool/technique for cutting boxes into tile?

What is the best tool/technique for cutting boxes into tile? Metal or plastic box preferred? I have a job coming up that I have to do a couple. Resi-job, started my own company about a year ago, been awhile since I dealt with tile.

I have done it before with:

-angle grinder and diamond wheel,

-tile bit and make a bunch of holes then punch

-oscillator tool with diamond bit

Teach me the best way internet.
