Like A Local GuideFebruary 3, 2015A very small, low-key, order-at-the-register kind of taco joint. They offer a variety of tacos for $3-$4 a piece, and sobriety-shattering margaritas (frozen or on the rocks). Read more
Sam J.July 21, 2012This place is legit. Seating is tough but the tacos are very, very good. My picks are the Al Pastor and the Brisket but you can't go wrong. Pro Tip: ask for a side of fried avocado with your tacos.Upvoted Dec 27, 2024
Desiree GMarch 30, 2018BEST tacos I’ve had in a while!! Fried avocado and jalapeño, catfish, fried shrimp (all my faves). They also have a happy hour, lots of beer and margaritas for the win.Now, go!
Graylyn RooseJune 10, 2017Lives up to its reputation as one of the best taco places in Brooklyn. Try the fried avocado and jalepeno taco or the catfish. Not a lot of room here for large groups..be prepared to take it to go.
HectorOctober 10, 2015Migas taco (weekend brunch only), fried avocado & jalapeño plus brisket all live up to the hype. Cozy authentic Mexican spot worth the wait. Get that margarita!
Chelsea RenaudMay 10, 2016One of the only places in the city where you can get real-deal breakfast tacos. I endorse the fried avocado variety. Those, a margarita in your hand, and a table outside = pretty perfect Saturday.
Stina P.June 23, 2016Taco Tuesday can't be missed. Grab a seat outside if you can. They also have the BEST QUESO in all of New York City
Kimmie OhhAugust 15, 2020Try their fried avocado & jalapeño taco, brisket taco, grilled hanger steak taco, al pastor taco & homemade chorizo taco.
Great neighborhood spot. The nachos with chicken, grilled hanger steak taco & blackened catfish taco are my favorites. Downside: they close early & are usually crowded. Grubhub takeout to avoid lines.
Argelys OriachJune 18, 2016Delicious breakfast tacos. Don't be afraid to get a simple potato and cheddar combo if you've been overloading on meat recently - definitely hits the spot.
Brad KleinApril 4, 2016Brisket, avacado tacos were good. Place is small / gets crowded so better off togo. Would come back for other types.. And drinks! And sauce mmm
Julie Thurston Howell IOctober 10, 2016The first bite of the fried avocado taco w jalapeño made it worth the trip from Manhattan. Lucky for me, each bite just got better. I'll be back. Holy tacos!
THEY HAVE BREAKFAST TACOS & AWESOME QUESO...they're a bit larger & messier than Austin,but it's the 1 place I know of around here that has them & they taste as good as breakfast tacos are supposed to
Best tacos I've had, probably ever. The jalapeño and avocado taco is to die for. My friend from Mexico says it tastes just the way her Grandmother made them
Jimmy LazalaNovember 7, 2014The chicken nachos are awesome!!! Their cheese sauce is fantastic and their margaritas are an experience. There is a little bit of a wait but that's because they use fresh ingredients.- Brian FlescherJuly 15, 2017Life changing fried avocado and jalapeño tacos. If you're looking at this you should probably just do yourself a favor and go already !
Best Nachos in Brooklyn! Swap the avocado for guacamole and top it with your favorite meat or shrimp 😬
David F.July 11, 2017Best tacos in Brooklyn -- problem is, they know it and everyone else in Brooklyn knows it. Perpetually crowded, and a bit overpriced.
Marie RicherDecember 8, 2016Cute casual taco spot with huge margaritas. Really fun in the summer when the patio is open.
Michael LMarch 24, 2014The chips and queso are always a good decision. Tacos are delicious and the beer selection is excellent. Gets crowded easily but totally worth it!
Cole KennedyJune 20, 2015Tacos: al pastor, carnitas, and chorizo. Do those. Thirsty? Margarita (with fresh juice) on the rocks.
Romain BernardAugust 14, 2017Great tacos, amazing margaritas, nice terrasse to enjoy the meal as well as the sun!
JeffreyAugust 31, 2014Main draw at this sunny counter-service cantina is the breakfast taco. It’s a hot, steamy flour tortilla cradling scrambled eggs and your choice of fixings, served weekends only, until 4 p.m.
Brooklyn UnitedJune 19, 2013We have a taco problem, and Gueros is one place where we like to get our fix. You can’t go wrong with any combination of ingredients on their weekend-afternoon-only breakfast tacos.
ECavaJanuary 14, 2012Best: migas breakfast taco, margarita w/fresh juice, fried avocado& jalapeño taco & fried chicken taco! And GREAT guac.
Alberto SimonFebruary 28, 2016Great queso and tasty tacos with the standout being the fried avocado and jalapeno
Great vibe, sweet tunes, friendly staff, excellent value, fresh food. Fried avocado tacos, nachos, and the frozen margarita is the way to go.
Check bag! Ho gave me some1else's order to-go.Howev, when I came back the owner compensated me w/a nomnom freshly squeezed margarita! Get the roasted vege taco&guac&chips! Sign petition4sidewalk cafe
Jarel HillJune 7, 2018Carnitas, pastor and fried avocado. All were solid carnitas was the best by far though. Chilos reigns supreme though.
Sam GilApril 3, 2016Avocado and Jalopeno tacos all you ever need. Brisket nachos amazing. It's all perfect. And the margssss.
Nelson MercadoApril 21, 2017Great tacos, amazing nachos! margaritas not so much! Disclaimer: I was pretty inebriated both times that I had Gueros!
Katie GJune 16, 2013Found two different colored hairs in my breakfast tacos this morning. And yet, this will not stop me from going to Gueros... yet. So delicious. Just please keep your hair to yourself.
Matt BDecember 25, 2014Realllllly great tacos, very limited seating. Good thing I live next door.. Expect a long wait for breakfast tacos on weekends, but it's always worth it.
The breakfast tacos (served til 4pm on the weekends) are DANK
- Boris JonesMarch 5, 2015It may be 40 mins before you eat, but it is totally worth it!! Get in line and enjoy that vibe :)
Great tacos, but the police are jerks. The heady early days of getting a to-go margarita are over. There's a cop waiting outside the door giving people citations who walk out.
💕Linds💕August 11, 2012Absolutely amazing food! The 20 oz agave, natural fruit juice margarita is awesome! Just don't get caught drinking it on the sidewalk, the 5-0 will harass you.- Half frozen and half regular... what better way to have your margarita? Oh did I mention they use fresh lime juice?! 😬
India MorganSeptember 7, 2013Fried avocado & jalapeño taco is the best taco in Brooklyn, straight up. Brunch on Sat & Sun, sit outside.
meg clarkSeptember 6, 2014Fried avocado tacos are the best. Get the marg half-frozen when they ask if you want frozen or on the rocks.
Afi Yellow-DukeJuly 24, 2015Have you ever wanted fried chicken in a taco for under $5? Then this is the place for you. Decent service and great food.
Raphael LangenscheidtJuly 1, 2015Fried Jalapeño tacos all the way. Great vibe, awesome food, amazing margaritas.
Fantastic street-sized tacos- the carnitas and the house made chorizo are 👌.
This place is amazing, but tiny with limited seating. So be polite; if you're done eating and not ordering more, get up and let the people waiting sit down!
