Made with tiny corn tortillas doubled up and stuffed with more meat than they can easily contain, then sprinkled with fresh onions and cilantro , the tacos made therefrom are some of the best in town . Read more

You won’t find the mixed special — which consists of wonderfully seasoned and unctuous pieces of flank steak , pork ear and beef stomach piled over tiny corn tortillas — on the menu! Read more

Al pastor tacos for the win! There is very limited seating in the store but there is a standing area to eat your tacos where you can find all their hot sauces & some other toppings.

Open late . Al pastor and chorizo tacos were delicious. Lots of options on the menu.

Krista Sande-Kerback

The al pastor and chicken tacos were delicious. Be prepared for a hole in the wall (get the one table or stand at the counter) and it seemed a little pricey , but I was thoroughly satisfied.

Lillian Rodriguez

Chicken tacos are yummy burritos are even better. Super filling and inexpensive .

Megan Do

Best fucking tacos in Spanish Harlem. Try the suadero (braised beef ), al pastor (roasted pork ) and tripe . Fix 'em up with pickled onion , radish and lime !

Original street style tacos . The only place that I've found tripas . El pasto is very good. Super inexpensive .

Pleasantly overstuffed tortas and savory tacos al pastor have made the tiny servingroom and takeaway counter one of the area’s biggest hits.
