Julian ModestoJune 1, 2019The line’s long, but the tacos are delicious. Try Los Mariscos around the corner of the line is too daunting
This place understands what a real quesadilla is. They just add melted cheese to a taco and dont make it a different dish.
Danae SimmonsDecember 14, 2014Best taco I've had in years. Heed recommendations by the guys behind the counter.
- Angelica YoungJune 29, 2015I usually am not a fan of tacos, but the Adobada (pork and pineapples) taco was amazing
Sree RamanOctober 15, 2015The adobada quesadillas are out of the world but you can't go wrong with any order here
Taco Adobada on a corn tortilla is all you need to know. Add a horchata and live the life.
AndresSeptember 8, 2014Adobada tacos! Amazing hand made tortillas. Incredible carne asada. Get the horchata
Zayed KhanSeptember 22, 2014Great tacos all around, but the real winner is the quesadilla especial (w/ carne asada)!
Pinar DenizOctober 19, 2014Steak quesadilla and tacos were great! Add the extra spicy dressing and salsa and thank me later :)
Elizabeth BursteinSeptember 5, 2017Really good chicken and steak tacos, horchata, and chips and guacamole
Gregory FisherJune 8, 2018Carne asada quesadilla is worth a wait, though the line is actually super fast moving, so no real issue there!- Zayed KhanMarch 22, 2015The quesadilla (not the especial) is served open faced, like a taco, but with cheese. It's gooey, and flaky at the same time.
Irakli BibileishviliMay 26, 2015Amazing proper corn tacos, tried both steak and chicken and they blew my mind
This is the closest you'll get to Tijuana in the city. Adobada quesadilla on flour with everything - trust me.
Wonderful tacos and a great staff. This is the kind of place you go to weekly.
Delicious hidden tacos in Chelsea Market. Go for the adobado on a corn tortilla.
Ted HaennSeptember 14, 2018Love the pork tacos; best out of the chicken, steak and pork. Get it with everything.
Marquillo SDecember 29, 2014It'S hard to find descent tacos outside mexico. This is a must stop for trully taco lovers
- Brandon KesslerAugust 6, 2014Beef and pork tacos. Also if hungry ask for fried carne asada quesadilla (off menu)
Eugene KimbergApril 23, 2015Delicious tacos! Try any, they are all good. Or better try all of them ;)- aJune 24, 2016Excellent adobada tacos, but don't be a gringo and smother them in guacamole. Leave that shit for your tex-mex.
Rick NijhuisNovember 12, 2016Enjoyed the fillings and horchata but the tacos themselves, though freshly made, were too thick and flavourless in my opinion.
Brian BilboFebruary 11, 2015Get one carne, one pollo and one adobada. Add mexican coke. You'll be as happy as a clam
Zack SheppardJanuary 16, 2020Those adobada tacos are something special... Get 'em with everything on corn tortillas.- Purna RodmanAugust 17, 2015Everything.... they do it right. Only serve a few things, all of it great.
Quesadilla Especial is a must, try it with everything
Camilla SjömanMay 15, 2016Worth to wait in line. Easilly the best mexican food I've tasted in Manhattan!
David BaldieJuly 15, 2017Fresh tacos made to order. No seating, soft shell only, horchata available.
THE best tacos in Manhattan. Chicken, flour, everything. Can't go wrong.
Edwina McGregorFebruary 11, 2018The tacos and quesadillas here are amazing. Just be prepared for mess and no seats.
Victoria WongSeptember 5, 2013skip the cactus tacos, tastes like overboiled artichokes. everything else is WOW WOW WOW. thank me later.
