Stopped by the Chelsea Market in the after and noticed a long line up at this place. Went ahead and ordered the beef and pork tacos. The meat was tender and seasoning was well-balanced. The taco was homemade! Overall, it was a pleasant experience apart from not enough seating available.
I was at first suspicious about paying 3.00$ for a taco yet these were stunning! I needed to revisit the line for more they were so great.
Every one of the fixings were crisp and the guacamole y salsa were an incredible expansion to a customary taco.
Likewise don't stress if there is a line out the entryway. These folks will get your nourishment to you in merely minutes. Unquestionably worth the cost! I wish we had one in Milwaukee.
Was the first place the night that I extended my trip in New York, I figured why not celebrate with tacos! Had heard about this place and walked past many times and was a bit intimidated at the long lines outside. But they are 100% the best tacos in New York City. When I went it was a Thursday night and quite busy however the line moved quick and I was being served after 5 minutes of waiting outside. The only thing that could be improved is more places to sit/stand and eat, however that's to be expected because this place is so popular and for good reason. I'll definitely be back.
We stopped for dinner here based on the reviews. It is a no frills place, order at the counter & collect from further down the counter, stand up at the bars to eat your food while the music blares delightful music into the restaurant. The staff were friendly & the tacos delicious.
The corn tortillas are gluten free so we had two chicken & two pork tacos with a side of guacamole & chips, including a drink it was $27.00.
If you’re looking for a romantic dinner or somewhere to sit & linger over food this is not the place, it is fast paced, vibrant & has a no nonsense vibe which we enjoyed.
We will definitely go back to Los Tacos!
Mucho Mucho Delicious!!
We have been coming to Los Tacos for years and it never disappoints. Be prepared to wait in line but it is definitely worth the wait. Our family favorite is the chicken and steak quesadillas. The chips, guacamole, and freshly made salsas are also delicious. We can feed the whole family on fresh food in NYC for less than $30, forget about it!

Melhores tacos que comi em NYC. Barato para a comida que era deliciosa. Serviço simples mas sempre educado e cordial. Boa "tasca" para comer verdadeiros tacos mexicanos.
We stopped here on our self guided food tour of Chelsea Market. Since we were eating our way around we only got one taco each. Our group got the steak (good), pork (yum!), and chicken (smoky deliciousness).
You order and pay at one counter and then you go to the other counter and give your ticket to get your food. The staff puts together the tacos quickly with good stuff in it. Recommended.
This place is affordable and very authentic. Its small, cosy and the way they serve pickles, lemons is amazing. The staff is very friendly as well. I don’t believe getting such quality food in NY at this price is really possible. Must must try especially for taco lovers.
The carne asada tacos are closest to perfection. Hands down the best tacos de carne i Have had outside Mexico...Please don't let the queue scare you
The lines are long and it does take some time to get your order in and get the food, but well worth the wait. It is also hard to find a place to sit anywhere in the market.
My wife and I came here and tried one of each of the tacos. The food is fresh and amazingly seasoned. They even make their own tortillas, they do it right in front of you.
The tacos are amazing and perfectly seasoned. The meat is perfectly cooked. The combinations for each taco is different so you are not just getting a different meat but a whole new experience with each different taco.
Definitely a place you must try.
Delicious tacos. I especially enjoyed the grilled chicken and marinated pork ones. The quesadillas are just slightly bigger tacos. So 3 tacos or 2 quesadillas would make a full meal
Oh and the best tamarind drink I’ve ever had! Nicely tangy and just the right amount of sweetness.
Located inside Chelsea Market, this is probably the best tacos I ever had in my whole life. The meat is juicy and savory, the cilantro adds some flavour. It is very much worth the wait. The portions are quite small but it makes it better to try different tastes.
The tacos are actually really good. The carne asada con Todo is definitely the winner here. The adobada is also a highlight. The pollo and cactus are also great to try but I would focus primarily on the beef and pork. Make sure you get the corn for a more authentic experience. The Aguas frescas are exceptional; we tried the Jamaica and the horchata. The line is painful but worth it. Overall, a very good and authentic taco experience to be had here in the Chelsea market.
I love the Grilled Steak and the Marinated Pork Tacos! The Chips w Guacamole was yummy as well!
For those who are new to this, the ordering process is slightly different from the usual. 1. Order at the cashier 2. Pass the ticket to an available staff in the kitchen 3. Tell the staff which Tacos base you want (Corn or flour) 4. Tell the staff what preferred ingredients (Onion, cilantro, salsa and guacamole) to add on 5. Wait for the staff to prepare your tacos and to call you when ready. 6. Enjoy~
lives up to the hype - amazing tacos and great atmosphere! I'd recommend trying all the tacos (with corn tortillas) except the cactus, but my favorite is the pork - super juicy and flavorful. their horchata is really good also!
usually a long lineup but it moves fast. once you order, give your ticket to the cooks and the tacos will be ready in no time
Wow. Worthy of hype. Best pork tacos I've had.
The star is the meat - the cook, char, and seasoning is perfect. I had pork, chicken, and steak, that was my order of preference though all 3 were outstanding and worthy of having again.
My wife enjoyed her tamarindo.
The line was huge but the service was quick once I had my order in. There is a bar adjacent to the restaurant where I acquired a Double IPA to drink while I waited.
The best tacos I had in NYC. This spot was recommended to us by our local friends and this turned out to be the best spot. It’s located inside a building along with other establishments. It’s very crowded and you have to get a token to order. Be ready for a trip to paradise with their tacos but also for long wait times. It’s totally worth it.
The vegetarian option for tacos was just the grilled cactus (nopal) and it was super chewy for my taste. However, the sauces and the corn tortilla were delicious. I had so many options for spicy sauce! It is not a sit down place so you have to get the food and find a place inside the market. The tacos and the plates make it a bit of a messy affair.
The tacos and quesadilla are bursting with fresh, authentic flavors that transport you straight to Mexico. The ingredients are top-notch, creating a refreshing and satisfying experience with every bite. The value for the quality is exceptional, making it a must-visit.
A tip: Send someone to find a seat while you order at the counter – seating is limited. Despite the long queue, the kitchen works efficiently, delivering orders swiftly. The quick service ensures you can enjoy your delicious meal without waiting too long. Don't miss out on this gem of an eatery!
Best Mexican food we’ve ever had.
We ordered a mixture of meat tacos and quesadillas and a grilled cactus one. The meat was all well marinaded, juicy and melt in your mouth tender, and the grilled cactus surprised us having never had cactus before.
The service was very efficient but my tip is to arrive 5 minutes before opening as the queue can get very long as the photos attached shows.
