what a hidden gem! 4 healthily-portioned tacos for $12 (you can just get 2 for $6 as well but that's no fun); the papas y rajas are something you don't see often and pack and unexpected kick

This hole-in-the-wall taqueria might be serving some of the best Mexican food in NYC! Get three tacos – filled with carnitas, beef belly and chorizo - for less than $10! Beer is super cheap too!

Awesome Mexican food! It's all bar seating but people leave quickly so grab a seat if you can and get the tacos with spicy pork or chicken.

This used to be a Mexican grocery store with a taco shop at the back. It has been refitted and now famous for its tacos. The spicy pork and beef tongue tacos are my favourites.

Really love this place! Try their selection of tacos, and don't forget to put some green sauce and lime on them. One of the best spots for authentic Mexican cuisine in New York!

Omg this place is amazing! The food is delicious! It's deli with a small restaurant inside somewhat, secretive. Love the place and definitely will be coming back.

The torta de pollo is a sizable lunch for just $6--there's a little bit of creaminess in the background that blends well with the flavorful shredded chicken.

Amazing Mexican food. The plates are huge and super good value. Try the tinga plate. The tacos are also excellent, especially the pork ones.

the chicken torta was wonderfully done although it had a lot of straight-up mayonnaise in it--not my favorite

The tacos are the quick fix, but if you're feeling frisky, the burritos are just as delicious (although a bit messy)!

As the other tips suggest the tortas are awesome! And chips and guacamole go down great with 2 cheap beers :)

A well-stocked Mexican market with a small food counter in the back. Tacos are done well, but tortas are king. Open late.

Their tacos are served hot and are so yummy with their soft tortillas. Hot sauce is also recommended.

It might be smaller than a breadbox but it's got all the taco varieties you can shake a stick at. Also the best hot sauce ever.

Al Pastor and Carne Enchilada tacos were good but I'm guessing the real draw are some of the more, ahem, exotic options

Great tacos! But I had the misfortune of finding they removed many of the best tacos, like cabeza...that's sad

You want to try the sauces made by the restaurant, don't use the branded ones on the stands. The house sauces are to the left of the counter.

This place has amazing tacos but do not overlook the tortas they are out of this world and more filling than 2 tacos which would be equal to the price

It's not on the menu, but ask for the "Milanesa de pollo con arroz y frijoles", you won't be disappointed! And put the green sauce and lime on it!

Make sure you pick up some of their fantastic hot sauce on the way out. I recommend the El Yucateco Chipotle or the El Yucateco XXX Hot Sauce if you like it super hot with loads of flavor.
