Little 14-seat slice of taco heaven. Friendly staff. Super reasonably priced. Homemade tortillas. Yum.

Lean pork marinated with guajillo chiles and pineapple in a fresh chewy maize tortilla creates a uniquely sweet and spicy taco that is equally delicious adorned with plenty of fresh cilantro. Read more

tacos are much larger and heartier than most - pony up the extra .50 for the homemade tortillas and get the salted beef, the sausage, and the roast pork.

Even Chef René Redzepi of famed Noma loves this intimate, four-table taqueria in the East Village. Standouts include tongue tacos and house-made tortillas folded around soft beef suadero.

This place is pretty epic. Highlights carnitas tacos // cochinita pibil (anything) this is the slow roasted pork cooked in banana leaves and served with pickled peppers and onions. So good!

The chorizo and papas quesadilla is fantastic. Get the handmade tortillas. Watch out for the chunky red salsa in the set of 3 little bowls. It'll burn you!

Really cute authentic Mexican. Homemade tacos!! Great value. I had the prawns and they were king prawns cooked infront of me. Great value at only $5

My favorite taco truck in the East Village opened a storefront with a slew of new entree options and the same great prices.

This place is secretly BYOB. Get wine at the little store next door, and enjoy some of the best tacos of your life.

Really liked the pork carnitas and al pastor tacos. Definitely pay extra for the handmade tortillas- so good!

Unbelievable Mexican food. Best I’ve had in the East village. No thrills and priced accordingly. Love Morelos!
Mike JacobsonOctober 21, 2013
Spend the extra .50 on the handmade tortillas. Great: Carne, the vegetarian taco with a crazy name. Not as good: the shrimp taco, the quesadillas.

Their elote (roasted corn on the cob with pepper, cheese, lime) is a thing of beauty. Their burritos are the best around.

EVERYTHING IS DELICIOUS! Get the cochinitas taco and splurge for the homemade tortilla. You won't be disappointed.

Shrimp and beef tacos are amazing, get the homemade tortilla, elote is very good too

Solid Mexican in the East Village. Vegetarian tacos, burritos, and the cheese enchiladas! It’s pretty small so I tend to carry out.

The truck's storefront doesn't miss a beat. Food is great when you are there and their delivery is delicious and quick too.

Tacos were good. Skimped on the carne a bit. Skip the homemade tortillas maybe tbh
Tallulah YoungbloodAugust 17, 2015
The tacos were great, loved the salsa Verde and the habanero sauce was nice and spicy.
Lana MySeptember 16, 2013
Finally some REAL Mexican food in NYC. No frills, small space, not fast because everything is fresh. They also deliver.
Jinnie LOctober 15, 2014
spicy chicken quesadilla was large n yummy♥($5) I usually get tostada here so good :)
Kate ArgentoAugust 23, 2016
The burritos are some of the best I've had
Anton MonastyrskyNovember 29, 2017
Is good to grab something quick. Not for fine dining. 1 tacos and 1 quessadia = 13$
VeroJanuary 24, 2014
Great tacos!! Def try the suadero tacos with homemade tortillas
Ben RAugust 7, 2014
Spring for the homemade tortillas. You can't choose a bad taco.
Lilit MarcusOctober 20, 2013
They charge an extra fifty cents for homemade tortillas vs store-bought ones. It's worth it, obviously.
Angélica PonceJune 20, 2016
More delicious and juicy fish tacos on the City!

Decent seating And great assortment of dishes (not just tacos)

Horchata smoother than Salma Hayek in Dusk Til Dawn. Try some.

Get the homemade tortillas. Worth the upgrade.

Low key taco shop but always packed! No margaritas though
