About Garcia's Taco Bar

Garcia's Taco Bar is an authentic Guatemalan restaurant located conveniently off the LIE Service road. The husband and wife owners provide excellent friendly service, and the food, including delicious tacos, braised meats, and other specialties like Garnachas and enchiladas, is highly praised by customers. The place features a lively atmosphere with an open-air market feel, complemented by a South American vibe with colorful lighting. Customers often wait in line, especially on busy days, but say it’s worth the wait for the fresh, made-on-site vegetables, tortillas, and meats. The menu is popular for its chicharron, which is crispy with juicy pork inside, and many find it irresistible. The food truck setting adds to the casual, vibrant experience, and the staff is welcoming to first-timers. Visitors recommend calling ahead if in a rush to avoid missing out on the tasty offerings.

Guests have enjoyed the pupusas and chips, with some noting they are among the best on Long Island, though consistency can vary. While some customers praise the tacos, mentioning adobada, al pastor, and Garnachas, others have experienced greasy tacos or issues with service, such as receiving the wrong order or subpar customer care. An incident was noted where a customer found a bug under the chips, so diners are advised to be cautious. Despite the occasional wait, the food remains relatively affordable, and many visitors consider Garcia's Taco Bar a great spot for authentic flavors and fresh ingredients, especially for those who love chicharron and traditional Guatemalan dishes.
