Paige CDecember 10, 2021Not a lot of flexibility with what you can order. Surprising that you can’t even get rice or beans. Also, what they call a “quesadilla” is more like an open taco.
Carlos RussoNovember 27, 2017Definitely get an adobada taco or quesadilla, whichever you prefer. But make it AN ADOBADA. You won't regret it.
Teresa ElliottJuly 2, 2013Quite possibly the best taco I have ever had. Tortilla perfection. Get the pork. Perfect avocado to cilantro ratio for the guac, too.
You know a place is legit when they don't have any burritos on the menu. Try any/all of the tacos on a corn tortilla "con todo" - you won't be disappointed.
Tara DîanaJanuary 16, 2018Hard to find a place to eat the tacos, but they’re delicious. We liked the chicken tacos! The pork tacos have pineapple on them, FYI.
Lou DAugust 21, 2013Quite possibly the best tacos in NYC. Must try an adobada (pork) taco and if feeling hungry, add a carne asada quesadilla.
CBJune 18, 2014Spectacular Tacos- Three kinds- Pork, Chicken and Steak. Keep in mind that deleting is in the hall way food court area and there is very little of it
Divya MenonJanuary 7, 2015My favorite place for delicious, authentic corn flour tacos! Get the special rice & cinnamon drink to savor all flavors!
First We FeastAugust 3, 2014Order an excellent “especial” deep-fried quesadilla if you must (actually, you must), but all we're saying is this place is called Los TACOS No. 1 for a reason. Read more- Omid MoradshahiJune 20, 2017Carne asada tacos are great and the corn tortillas are so fresh. Line a bit long but worth the wait.
SolDecember 31, 2018No matter the filling, get the fresh corn tortillas and watch them work. One of the best you can find in NY.
Megan JohnsonAugust 2, 2014The best tacos in NYC. Freshly-made corn tortillas. Chicken, pork, steak were all delicious. 2 tacos actually filled me up.
Excellent no frills tacos, some of the best in the city. Grab a few and eat at the standing counter.
HklingFebruary 20, 2019Come early to begin queuing... service is fast and friendly and tacos are super yummy with their homemade sauces
Gabriel GarridoMay 28, 2017The adobada taco is the best taco i have had in my life, and i have had them all. dont waste your time looking, you have found el taco no. 1
Erika GrijalvaOctober 15, 2014One good taco place is as good as their salsas, this place has great salsas. Tacos al pastor are very tasty, my favorites.
CarolMay 21, 2023I finally get why so many people preach this place! No frills taco shop- only sadness is that they don’t have elotes/ esquites. But tacos are cheap and tasty
Marianella MoralesFebruary 14, 2017Authentic mexican tacos. The carne asada quesadilla with corn tortilla was so good! Juicy meat and fresh ingredients.
Ashley 🌵August 26, 2014O.M.Tacos! As a native arizonian... These are close to the best! So yummy! I usually prefer pork tacos, but the chicken was better! Could have been my mood...
order the carne asada quesadilla and adobada taco. one of the best spots for tacos in the city
Jin MoonMay 5, 2016One of the best authentic tacos in NYC. No seat though... great for take out. Maybe eat it on highline?
Markéta ŠkvorováMay 29, 2018Delicious tacos! Located in Chelsea market, just one disadvantage - they do not have their own place where to sit.
Avneesh KohliMay 17, 2017The pollo asado tacos are the best I've ever had. Be sure to try their salsa too!
jon ferrerAugust 23, 2014excellent tacos and salsa bar. high quality ingredients and well priced for Chelsea market, but there's always a line.
Chris CristianoJanuary 2, 2014Best tacos in the city. Try the quesadilla especial. It's deep fried and then filled with your choice of meat and toppings.
I take my tacos seriously, these are some of the best I've ever had.
Emily WilsonJune 29, 2016Do not try to eat your food at the Los Tacos counter during prime hours or expect to be treated like you don't exist by people reaching for the salsas. Scary stuff.
PierreFebruary 22, 2014Try the adobada taco w everything. So delicious and you can get a side of radishes which are perfect side- Shirin HAugust 31, 2013California-approved. The best tacos I've had in NY. The adobada taco on corn tortilla with everything was SO good.

lx36pFebruary 27, 2015Steak taco is amazing. Put on spicy sauce. Amazing! One of the best that I've ever ate!
Kevin DudleyOctober 18, 2019The line moves fast. The cheese taco shell is AMAZING and keto! I might have been able to eat three tacos, but two were plenty.
DishEnvyApril 28, 2016Adobado on corn is our favorite, but these are definitely some of Manhattans best tacos
Jc TrabolsiJuly 5, 2015A-ma-zing! Totally worth the wait! You'll probably won't find better handmade corn Tortillas outside of Mexico!

"One of the best lobster rolls I've ever had! A note of warning though: It's definitely "Manhattan"-sized."
Vanessa - 8.0
"One of the best coffee places we found in New York . Usually a long (and slow) line, but worth it"

"Their grilled cheese is one of the best I've had in NY. If you're here for brunch, order their shrimp & grits if they're in season."
