"We came in and ordered via the kiosk. Apparently some that were ordering had been waiting upwards of an hour!! Since we were late to the game, when hearing of this we stepped up to the counter to inquire about our order. One of the staff members accelerated our order and we were able to dine in within a timely fashion. The tacos can be customized for flour vs corn, and are homemade! The portion of meat to the taco was almost half of the tortilla so it felt really skimpy. Order by best to worst: birria > el pastor > fish > carne The birria had such a dynamic flavor and savory bite. I wish we ordered the consume because I’m sure it would’ve made it even better! The el pastor had a lot of flavor but kinda dry. The fish was fried to perfection but could not be good without sauces. The carne was straight up meh since it was small bites of dry meat. The side sauces were amazing. Elote corn was FIRE with a loaded seasoning and flavor. No bathroom on site."

"Decent quick bite. Not Oaxaca or Cali but okay for a NY fix. A little larger than the typical hand-sized tacos. The AL Pastor and Pollo Asado both have good flavor. Could use a kiss more salt but still flavorful bites. The Elote Ribs were hard, as in an unripe Corn. The corn lacked sweetness or corniness. They were dusted with Chipotle and Cotija & could've used more cheese. The Salsa Verde and Sour Cream for the Chicken Quesadilla was DELISH!! The Salsa Verde is blended smooth, great flavor but prefer a chunkier Salsa. The Sour Cream was VERY tangy and scrumptious. Service was quick and friendly. Slim to No Parking so take public transpo."

"This taco spot is an absolute gem! The food is always fresh and full of flavor, and the customer service is second to none. The staff go out of their way to make sure you have a great experience, and what really sets them apart is how much freedom they give you to customize your order. Unlike the big chain places that churn out the same thing every time, here you can truly make each taco your own. Highly recommend for anyone who loves quality, personalized, and delicious food! 🌮"

"Taco Al pastor, fish, and shrimp were all tasty! I find it hard to find a good al pastor in nyc so I’m glad we have one in the neighborhood. And shrimp definitely exceeded our expectation. Shrimp was cooked just right so it was tender and juicy, when it’s easy to be overcooked and dry."

"Tacos Del Barrio for the win! Great addition to the area. I went twice in two days because it was so good. The pastor tacos are bomb, the chicken tacos are great, steak was delicious and very tender, and the fish taco was also a hit. Our friends loved their shrimp quesadilla (I didn’t try a bite but it looked very tasty and I’ll try it soon). Staff is super friendly. Can’t wait to eat the rest of the menu!"
