Best tacos I have had in New York! The pork is great. I recommend just doing the quesadillas, they're just bigger tacos.
Ernesto GutierrezFebruary 20, 2016
If you are craving tacos this is the place to indulge. Adobada and carne asada is the way to go. The medium hot sauce packs a punch.
Teresa ElliottJuly 2, 2013
Quite 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.

Hard 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.
Johnnie SkywalkingFebruary 13, 2016
Steak is great but I really loved pork.

My favorite place for delicious, authentic corn flour tacos! Get the special rice & cinnamon drink to savor all flavors!
SolDecember 31, 2018
No matter the filling, get the fresh corn tortillas and watch them work. One of the best you can find in NY.

Spectacular 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
Omid MoradshahiJune 20, 2017
Carne asada tacos are great and the corn tortillas are so fresh. Line a bit long but worth the wait.
Lou DAugust 21, 2013
Quite possibly the best tacos in NYC. Must try an adobada (pork) taco and if feeling hungry, add a carne asada quesadilla.

Order 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

Excellent no frills tacos, some of the best in the city. Grab a few and eat at the standing counter.

Come early to begin queuing... service is fast and friendly and tacos are super yummy with their homemade sauces
Megan JohnsonAugust 2, 2014
The best tacos in NYC. Freshly-made corn tortillas. Chicken, pork, steak were all delicious. 2 tacos actually filled me up.

The 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

I 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
Erika GrijalvaOctober 15, 2014
One good taco place is as good as their salsas, this place has great salsas. Tacos al pastor are very tasty, my favorites.
winMarch 21, 2015
No frills Taco perfection. Pork and beef flavorful and juicy. Standing room only.
Marianella MoralesFebruary 14, 2017
Authentic mexican tacos. The carne asada quesadilla with corn tortilla was so good! Juicy meat and fresh ingredients.

My god the Especial with meat is so good it should be illegal

Just amazing don’t miss, I loved the chicken qasadilla
Ashley 🌵August 26, 2014
O.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...
Jin MoonMay 5, 2016
One of the best authentic tacos in NYC. No seat though... great for take out. Maybe eat it on highline?

order the carne asada quesadilla and adobada taco. one of the best spots for tacos in the city
Markéta ŠkvorováMay 29, 2018
Delicious tacos! Located in Chelsea market, just one disadvantage - they do not have their own place where to sit.
Avneesh KohliMay 17, 2017
The pollo asado tacos are the best I've ever had. Be sure to try their salsa too!
jon ferrerAugust 23, 2014
excellent tacos and salsa bar. high quality ingredients and well priced for Chelsea market, but there's always a line.
jiresellMarch 26, 2018
Really great tacos, made to order. The line moves fast, so don’t be intimidated by it.
Chris CristianoJanuary 2, 2014
Best tacos in the city. Try the quesadilla especial. It's deep fried and then filled with your choice of meat and toppings.

Great for a quick meal. Delicious & authentic tacos!
Simran DassJanuary 5, 2023
Really good tacos - my favourite was the pork taco. The horchata was fantastic as well. A must try!
Emily WilsonJune 29, 2016
Do 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.

I take my tacos seriously, these are some of the best I've ever had.
Luke MayesMarch 12, 2018
Really, really good tacos. I don’t think it matters what you order. Just get whatever sounds good. It will be good.
Mark McQueenSeptember 3, 2019
Chicken tacos where banging. There was a large que but went down v fast and the staff where v helpful.

California-approved. The best tacos I've had in NY. The adobada taco on corn tortilla with everything was SO good.

Simple menu/pricelist. We stuck to tacos, since that’s what they are popular for

Authentic Mexican food. Best tacos I've had in years. Carne Asada quesadilla was the best! Cali approved

My favorite place to eat in NYC period. Nothing close, get the carne asada tacos! Like 40 of them, with everything.
funky flavorJune 4, 2016
Tacos are very good! But be prepared for a line. And no place to sit.
lx36pFebruary 27, 2015
Steak taco is amazing. Put on spicy sauce. Amazing! One of the best that I've ever ate!
Kevin DudleyOctober 18, 2019
The line moves fast. The cheese taco shell is AMAZING and keto! I might have been able to eat three tacos, but two were plenty.
Julian ModestoJune 1, 2019
The line’s long, but the tacos are delicious. Try Los Mariscos around the corner of the line is too daunting
DishEnvyApril 28, 2016
Adobado on corn is our favorite, but these are definitely some of Manhattans best tacos
