Elizabeth Y.: Only one waitress but be patient and you will handsomely rewarded with deliciousness. Definitely try the different taquitos (especially al pastor), tostada (Tinga) for some crunch, and Pozole.
Chris H: Carnitas taquitos are so juicy.
Gothamist: Try the marinated pork or the super flavorful spicy pork, or if you're really adventurous and/or hungry get the whole gamut of beef/chicken/pork in taquito form. Few-to-no veggie options, cash only. Read more.

Eater: Robert Sietsema: "The best of the taquitos are made with al pastor pork tidbits, bathed in the pineapple juice that has dribbled down over meat as it roasts on the vertical spit." Read more.
DishEnvy: The pastor is the way to go, although you can't go wrong with any of their tacos
Bauzen: This taco truck is serious. Real-deal Al Pastor spinning on a roasting spit, and no nonsense choices on the menu. At $1.50 per taco, it's about as amazing as street tagos get. Gringos need not apply.

Emily Rose Feinberg-Hosier: Amazing! Guacamole, tacos, quesadillas, tostadas, you name it, it tastes incredible, and such a great price!!
Tim Vetter: Weird food club score: Get a quesadilla con huitlacoche aka Mexican truffle aka corn smut, not easy to find in NYC. $4. http://www.brooklyntheborough.com/2010/08/the-dish-uncovering-huitlacoche/
Time Out New York: Try the flor de calabaza quesadilla. Fresh masa is griddled, then topped with mounds of sautéed squash blossoms, cotija cheese, crema and lettuce. It’s one of our #100best dishes and drinks of 2011. Read more.

Danny Carnaje: It's rad to know that someone in NY is doing the whole "hole-in-the-wall" Mexican joint right. Get their soft tacos, crispy flautas, just do it and pay for it the morning after.
Isabelle Kim: Amazing soft fish tacos perfect for those late nights...
Kodi McKinney: Burrito vs. a basketball. Two men enter, one man leaves. My money's on the burrito.
