Christine DaCruzJune 22, 2015Mexican style tacos are cheap and delicious. Try them all you will not be disappointed!
Mike PodwalJune 26, 2011Decor, attitude, commitment to authenticity, and food freshness: 8/10. Flavor: 4/10. I had the Rajas and Carnitas tacos, and was shocked. Great tequila menu, though.
Fancier tacos, but not *expensive* and definitely great. Plus...booze! Also, they do a good brunch too. Only place I've found in NYC with enfrijoladas.
Michelle WilesJuly 10, 2017Sopa Tarasca is just okay. The quesadillas are street style and delicious
Swift SwiftAugust 17, 2014Get the shishito peppers. It's like eating Mexican inspired edemame. Not spicy though.
Arjun Shivanand KannanAugust 28, 2016The tacos are flavorful and extremely fresh! Great vegetarian options too.
Bjorn L.September 8, 2015A bit more crowded than Cerveceria (same owners and not too far away), but great food too.
Ruturaj RanaNovember 12, 2017Chicken mole tacos, the salsa sampler, Rajas tacos, and the watermelon juice 🍉 :)
Ana Maria ZirogluOctober 15, 2012Amazing tacos. Definitely great Mexican food...and they serve alcohol. Try all different tacos - won't disappoint.
Kristina RudicApril 11, 2016Get four tacos and the largest classic margarita. Then enjoy being really tipsy and satisfied AF.
Matthew KAugust 12, 2017Incredible tacos!!!! The chorizo taco is like nothing I've ever had, so flavorful!
Allison EspositoJune 13, 2013You really can't go wrong with anything you order here, but the potato flautas are what dreams are made of.
Wally NDecember 29, 2016They are cash only (tax cheats) and outspoken Bernie bros. also their cleanliness rating fluctuates wildly--but it's never an A.
Adrianne BenzionMay 4, 2013Chipotle shrimp tacos and black bean soup are delish. Don't pass up a margarita topped w spices
- Chad HornerOctober 23, 2017cash only! the quesadillas are great, really more like a giant empanada than a typical quesadilla
Best tacos I've had in NYC so far, and the tortilla chips are awesome.
Ryan BuckleyAugust 1, 2013Cochinita Pibil (Slow cooked pork in banana leaves) is the best taco I've ever had. Period.
Jamie GeraceDecember 18, 2012One of my fav spots in NYC hands down. Hipster mexican...who knew it was a match made in heaven!
Kira RochaMay 12, 2013I love lengua tacos here. Their michelada has a lot of lime and is very spicy, delicious
Wade VSeptember 28, 2018The environment is hip and fun. But the food really doesn't live up to what it should.
Felipe BDecember 29, 2015I'll tell you up front what they seem to wait until the end to tell you: Cash Only. Other than that, very good tacos.
Kien NguyenSeptember 27, 2015It's hard to impress this Californian, but this place has some decent tacos that will fulfill your Mexican food cravings.
Niji J.March 20, 2016The gorditas here are the closest I've had to proper ones in Mexico. Very tasty
IFCJuly 6, 2010New York: Superior has New York tacos that your L.A. friends can't knock. You'll be seeing the world through pork-colored lenses after you try these carnitas. - IFC Staff
Try the torta ahogada. Hardly any restaurant outside Guadalajara (Western Mexico) has nailed it like they did at La Superior.
GenevaJune 26, 2013They are cash only and the guava margarita is a little spicy! The guac is amazing!!
Chipotle shrimp gets my vote for best taco ever. Rajas and carnitas are close runner-ups.
Dean CareyApril 8, 2016Be prepared to wait for a table - Food comes out as it's made - but above all.. ENJOY!
Noah NormanAugust 24, 2016The hipper cousin to Cevicheria Havemeyer, this place has more of a taco focus, but the same simple consistency.
Mathias JakobsenJune 19, 2011Awesome upscale mexican. Tacos are on par with La Esquina and Barrio Chino. Ask for the special hot sauce! Read more
Shawn ChengJuly 7, 2013Corn on a cup is the only bad thing I've had here. Came with the water it was boiled in...gross

"The fried fish tacos are out of this world and can easily be split among 2 ppl"

"The blood orange spicy margarita was amazing! The tuna tostadas and chicken were also incredible. The chicken portion is huge, so you only need one or two small plates if you get that."
