Elizabeth B. • December 31, 2020Enjoyed takeout. Good tortilla soup. Tacos ok. Liked: cauliflower, chicken, braised rib. Disliked: fish and carnitas. Chips and guac standard.
Christopher S. • December 4, 2018That was a revelation. Long lines, but quick, inexpensive, authentic tacos! Yum. Great for a quick bite before theater. Just have some mints!
Alyssa B. • January 12, 2023Asada and adobada tacos. Everyone recommends the corn tacos but the flour taco really complements the adobada imo!!
Kevin T. • January 5, 2013El Rey serves up some of the best Mexican food for lunch in the city. Can't go wrong with 3 tacos (al pastor &spicy pork personal favs). Otherwise the torta sandwich is delish and similarly satisfying
Michael G. • February 20, 2019Garlic steak was really good. This place could rival Dos Toros and Chipotle
Fahad • November 3, 2016Excellent Mexican restaurant .. everything is good here .. don't miss the salted caramel cheese cake at the end of the meal
Geo R. • July 30, 2019$5 boxes, which include a drink are a great value. Food is flavorful and filling. Careful when filling your drink cup at the single n fountain. Gets a bit crowded/ rushed, but well worth it.
Todd B. • November 14, 2018Excellent Midtown eats try the MARKET VEGETABLES: seasonal squash & greens, with cremini mushrooms & shishito peppers
Wayne B. • September 5, 2017Authentic Mexican feel. I had a lamb torta. Not thrilled! Will be back to try rib eye torta for final verdict. House salad good.
Jeffrey G. • September 10, 2021Ask for extra crispy on the quesadilla and yes the burritos are best in NYC.
Tom • December 17, 2019New location that offer booze. It’s a little dark inside but feels cozy and the staff is very nice.
Josh • April 5, 2017Great carnitas tacos nothing fancy just great food. Good for take out and on the go
Nate S. • March 7, 2020Can’t believe I’m being so picky about Taco Bell (!!!), but this is the smallest/slowest Cantina in the city. There are at least 2 over on 8th Av that are much better. Still good for late nights tho!
Melissa K. • August 21, 2018This is the best kept secret in NYC. Phenomenal tacos, friendly staff, open late. Fish taco and mushroom tacos are the best. Fun place, great vibe.
Nadia • August 23, 2012Steak or chorizo tostada and a chorizo picadita (pretty much a sope). Delicious!
Edgar C. • August 26, 2015Shrimp tacos are the best of the selection I made, followed very closely by carne asada... Absolutely leave room for churros and pair with the horchata!
Coble G. • April 11, 2013Shrimp soft shell tacos. The shrimp are deveined, nicely seasoned and hit the spot. Do this!
Deej R. • March 7, 2012You can't go wrong with the beef tongue and spicy pork tacos!!! But skip on the burritos, they're not as good.
Demetrius B. • November 15, 2017Janice K of VoNY shares this place is very vegan-friendly with their menu clearly marking it. Including 4 different types of tacos, a soup, "coconut soft serve ice cream"
Gena • November 20, 2019Al Pastor, Fish, and Spicy Shrimp are all winners (esp. during $15 lunch special). Staff is sweet and accommodating. Awesome spot to post up during lunchtime!
