Amazing, authentic tacos that are flavorful and packed with meat. Best tacos I’ve had outside Mexico City. Highly recommend the carne asada where the meat isn’t chopped up which I prefer. The pastor was filled with meat. The spicy sauce is spicy so beware.

One of the best tacos I’ve had in the city, hands down! It’s lovely to see molcahetes with freshly made homemade sauces, grilled onions and peppers. I really recommend the salsa, it might scorch a bit on its own but on a taco it adds so much flavor and doesn’t burn quite as bad! Fine knife work, quick service, and from what I can tell it’s an all Hispanic run business! This place is a gem. It’s a small space though, if you get there early you might be able to snag a counter seat or at least a table outside.

I tried their Asada, Suadero, and Al Pastor. The best was probably Al Pastor for flavor profile. But overall the meat was overwhelmingly oily! My tortilla was breaking apart even by just lifting it. Also I found it odd that they don’t have seperate sides of just cilantro or onions, instead only offer a mix of both. Some customers just want cilantro or vise versa. Salsas and tortillas are good though.
Staff was friendly. Dine in is tight quarters, but its NY haha

The tacos were made perfectly, and the salsa had just the right level of spiciness that I love. Everything was super delicious! Since it was a weekday, it wasn’t too crowded, which made the experience even better. I highly recommend going and trying it!

The food is amazing, the quality of the meat is top tier. I recommend getting Chorizo, Al pastor or Carne asada. I got one of each, they were so good that I ordered a second round of tacos.

Wow, these tacos and quesadillas are exquisite! Meat is so flavorful, the tortillas are nice and crunchy, and all the flavors combine beautifully.
So happy that this place is delicious and in the neighborhood. Highly recommend to anyone who is craving authentic style Mexican food!
And this is coming from a So Cal native that has high standards for Mexican food.

Excellent Al Pastor tacos here. Love the flavor on them – super authentic. The food itself was outstanding.
As far as the space – it’s pretty tight and really only allows for 7-8 people comfortably and no real space or tables to spill onto the street. The location of the toppings is also odd because you need to step through the line to do it and I was fumbling around other people.
I’m also not sure if it’s because they’re new and still working the kinks out, but it took 15-20 minutes to get 4 tacos with only a handful of customers, which was surprising compared to the other BK taco spots in the area.
And, like another review noted, the menu is super confusing. I get the branding part of it, but seriously needs to be rethought to be more customer friendly.
All that being said – nothing that can’t be fixed! Worth visiting for the tacos themselves, the food is worth your time.

Hands down the best taqueria I’ve been to in Brooklyn. The lengua tacos were amazing, super tender and full of flavor. The salsas actually have real heat, which I loved.
Plus, the staff is really friendly, which makes the whole experience even better. Highly recommend.

Best tacos in Brooklyn!!!!!! I can’t tell you guys how much I love coming here. Fresh tacos and great service.

Excellent tacos! We got in on a weekday with no wait right as they opened, within 5-10 minutes the space was packed with dine-in customers and takeaway dashers. The tacos were great, similar enough to the ones I tried in CDMX. I also think the self service ordering is awesome, this way staffs can focus on getting the orders ready. Overall it’s a legit spot and I’d love to come back as long as there is seating.
