50 Best Taco Restaurants near Forest Hills

“Still a great place to get tex-mex food. They take credit cards now and are on food delivery apps but I suggest calling and ordering delivery directly from them.
They use skirt steak for their steak dishes. The Tortillas are fresh also. I love their salsa/sauce (the not spicy one). Food takes a bit to make, def not a bad thing. I suggest calling and ordering in advance. Very limited seating. Very busy place. People are always calling in or picking up an order.“

“Best Mexican I've had in NYC. Actual Mexican flavor to the meat and rice and salsas, with everything fresh (including the homemade tortilla chips).

I've spent time in Mexico and grew up around homemade Mexican food in CA, and NYC usually misses the mark. But this place does everything right. I finally found my NYC hookup.“

“I went in wanting to hate on the place, being that it looks so new and bougie. I thought it was an Americanized place with high prices…. I had the fish taco, birria taco, esquites and birria soup (consome) with a tamarind water. I spent around $35 bucks - and after eating, I was sad to admit I LOVED everything about this restaurant. The tacos came out and the tortillas smelled like a tortilleria in Cuernavaca Mexico. Freshly made and I would assume made in house. I complimented the staff, tipped accordingly and brought my girl in to try it shortly after my first visit - & she agrees! (Ps:we’re both Mexican) sooo lo and behold we have our new favorite Mexican spot in the neighborhood. You have to try it! I’ve only gone in person, never delivery- love the freshness! Actually writing this review while heading in for another round.

Update: Pictures added from my latest meal. The torta is fiiiiire the bread is so spongey. And the pozole is incredible also! Lord have mercy ima have to run down the whole menu 😍🥲“

“Date night at Chela & Garnacha! Ordered the chicken burrito and the gf got the mole enchiladas and it was delicious! Margaritas were good! Staff was friendly and attentive ensuring we had our drinks replenished and was clearing out our table with the finished dishes. The restaurant was cozy with dim lights and felt intimate. Definitely a first date spot and will come back for sure! Highly recommend it! Will try the quesadillas next!“

“I love Moho, excellent attention. Everyone is very friendly, the food is very healthy and delicious... my husband and I love the birria tacos 🌮very much, we are in love with the place, it is excellent... I recommend it ❤️☘️“

“Great place to watch the sunset over NYC! Great drinks and good food! Excellent service.“

“Strange but wonderful fusion food!“

“Atmosphere, amazing! Food, top! Jeffrey, BRAVISSIMO!“

“Tacos Comal is following what every taco spot in Ny is trying to do; and that is to mimic the ever popular Tijuana style taco of course originating from its name sake and an ever popular option in California. And just like these taqueria in NY that try to mimic the look is there but the flavor cannot seem to get it right. These tacos are 3.5, although I cannot give it in my review it’s not deserving a 4 but mediocre is not by any measure and definitely does not deserve a 3. It falls in a 3.5 category. It’s not that the flavor is bad, it’s more that I don’t taste the authenticity. The salsas were weak and the biggest saving grace of this taco spot is its tortillas, which are definitely delicious.

If you’re looking for a good New York taco this is your spot! If you’re looking for an authentic Mexico or California taco they are to be found elsewhere.“

“Great Al pastor burrito and super friendly staff!

I had just finished a late workout and was heading to meet up with friends when I needed some food. I saw the food truck and stopped by. I ordered the Al pastor burrito because I was super hungry which was $13. He melted the cheese which to me is always the most important thing and the rest of the ingredients are fresh and the meat was delicious.“

“First time at this Dos Toros location, and Julio and Blanca made it an awesome experience! They were super friendly, offered great recommendations, and made sure I had everything I needed. The food was fresh and flavorful. I’ll definitely be back!“

“my family loves this place. gluten free options great staff great atmosphere great food great times“

“excelente servicio, muy buena comida y muy buen local, recomendado!!“

“Excellent choice for taste and affordability. All you need is $15 and you are beyond full. Tacos are a great tasty option along with the quesadillas or tortas. The burritos are great but I prefer the tacos with a side of rice and beans with a jarrito.“

“We are so thankful to have Candle right by our apt!! Their Black Bean Quinoa burgers and Chickpea Burgers are amazing-we order them 2x a week!! Great soups, great kind staff, just overall a great neighborhood gem.“

“Pretty standard of the mill taco truck place. Delicious meats and all. Would recommend“

“Delicioso y económico....“

“increible servicio comida muy deliciosa lugar muy agradable“

“Spread Love & juice is the perfect place to get freshly made smoothies. Oh! did I tell you they also have wonderful customer service? Well they do!“

“Let me emphasize this, NOBODY and I do mean NOBODY, makes a delicious bowl the way Tacobees do. I live far and order with extra charges through Ubereats because it’s just that good and worth every penny. I get burritos the size of a tiny baby. I should know because I’ve had tiny humans before and those burritos are at least 2lbs or more lol.

The way the burritos and bowls are made, is just so good. They don’t skimp out on anything. It’ll be full to the absolute brim. Their queso and guac is hands down the best out of all other chains (Chipotle, Moe’s and Qdoba.) The steak and honey chicken is just chefs kiss. I love how my delivery is also always warm and the most important part, correct. They just get me and can take my check any weekend!“

“Best taco truck in Williamsburg. Hands down. This food is so good; I’ve come from Staten Island to Williamsburg just to have it. The guys in the truck are some of the nicest guys around. They always make sure you get the best service and never fail to provide it! Next time your in Williamsburg, get yourself some Taco Rapido!!“

“I stopped in just for the tacos — and that’s all you really need to know. The al pastor taco is the star of the show: perfectly seasoned pork shaved right off the trompo, topped with pineapple, fresh onions, and cilantro, all wrapped in a handmade nixtamal tortilla that holds everything together like it was meant to.

It’s not the cheapest taco in NYC (around $5.75 each), but the quality backs up the price. The meat was juicy, not greasy, and the sweetness from the pineapple balanced the richness of the pork. Flavor-wise, it’s easily a 9 out of 10.

Didn’t try the burritos or other menu items, but the taco game here is strong. If you’re into real-deal tacos that remind you of a Mexico City street cart, this is worth the trip.

Would definitely go back — especially to try a few more while they’re hot off the trompo.“

“Right off the 7 train, you come down & it’s a white truck in front of dime bank/ k choice market, best tacos & salsas available late! Super friendly guys, always give you a tiny sample taco while you wait, you can’t beat their prices are pretty good for the quality of food you get!“

“My family rented out or booked Tulum for a 70th birthday party and it was a good time. Nice pricing for the space but you had to buy their food and alcohol. The food was good and the drinks was ok. I definitely would reserve this spot again.“

“Some of the best birria tacos I’ve had in Manhattan. The staff is friendly, patient, and very fast. What a wonderful place!“

“They have been here for ages! The food is absolutely delicious. The price is absolutely worth it considering they do not skimp on the meat and give you no fatty parts. The service is always excellent. It’s always the same man there everyday 7 days a week and he is always in a great mood and super sweet. Its cash only. Call your order in!“

“Food was delicious, service friendly and quick. Just bummed that for “dining in,”. plastic takeout containers were mandatory. I chose to eat in believing it would cut down on plastic waste, so it makes me not want to order from here again.“

“THE PLACE IS VERY SMALL BUT IT IS COMFORTABLE, AND IN COLD WEATHER IT IS GREAT BECAUSE THEY OFFER YOU COFFEE, CHOCOLATE OR DOUGH ATOLES OF DIFFERENT FLAVORS, THE FOOD IS GOOD AND THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS FRESH, THE PRICES ARE AFFORDABLE AND THEY ALSO HAVE A MINI BAKERY, TRY THE STEWS FROM THE DAY THEY ARE VERY RICH..“

“Comida súper autentica, deliciosa, sabrosa y los precios súper accesibles! 100% recomendado“

“I had one of their tacos for the first time today and it was indeed Delicious!“

“Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian tacos and they were so fresh omg. Delicious. I also got guacamole and chips and it was made on the spot, hot chips and all. 10 out of 10

Kid-friendliness: So polite and calm. They were helpful with making choices, prices were great . These people need to be noticed. It was an amazing experience.“

“Ricos tacos k no cambien la reseta y que dejen buson de vos cuando no estan en servicio..... Agracias“

“Came here at 8 pm on a Sunday, normally I get nervous going somewhere late because it’s about to close but the staff was amazing, waitress great and attentive, food and drinks came out fast and was soooo good. Excited for my leftovers!! If I lived near here I’d come all the time. Definitely recommend.“

“Some of the best birria tacos I’ve had in Manhattan. The staff is friendly, patient, and very fast. What a wonderful place!“

“Walking distance from subway. Across the street from a nice park. Somewhat manageable paid street parking. Amazing staff and service. Very cozy with only 2 tables and a counter. Very extended menu, you will definitely find something you like, vegan, vegetarian, or meats. Lunch specials are all great. Fast service. I'm getting lunch there at least 3 times a week, every week. Go try it and thank me later.

Parking: Street parking, during lunchtime, should be ok.“
