50 Best Taco Restaurants near Jamaica

“Just had some of the best tacos from this local truck 🌮🔥 The food was fresh, flavorful, and made with real care. You can tell the owner puts his heart into every order—working hard, staying friendly, and keeping everything running smoothly even during the rush.
It’s not just great food, it’s the dedication and hustle that make this place special. Definitely coming back and highly recommend everyone give it a try!“

“It's a street cart so atmosphere is Jamaica, but the tacos are great. Had bistec y pollo, with salsa verde, 2 for $8. That's pretty great nowadays. Service was very quick. They don't take card or Apple Pay, so only cash or Zelle. Will definitely be back.“

“A very low-key Mexican place with amazing food. I thought I had had enchiladas before. I love them. But I realize—no. Not until I came here. Every enchilada I've had previously is now second best.

It is not fancy. To me it is not cheap. Good selection of Mexican lager.

The food took a few minutes. But this is NOT taco bueno. It seems family run and super authentic to this gringito. The service was excellent. (They spoke excellent, flawless English.)“

“Come in, sit down and enjoy some Mexican food.“

“This place is actually good now that I tried it again. The food made me full and they had the best white sauce that I asked for extra. they gave me no tomato and really good food with the best orange soda. Pricey but nice. Eat here sometimes. One of the best Mix Platters I've Had. Really seasoned lamb and chunky lamb slices that tastes delicious.“

“The taco choices are amazing and delicious“

“The place is very well put together. the food was very good and the service was great. we stopped in for a quick drink and stayed over an hour and had lunch.“

“After hunting for good Mexican food for over a year, it’s safe to say this place checks all the boxes. The staff are always friendly, the food is divine, and the portions are reasonable. There is limited seating, but it is cozy and nice if the weather is good. I will say, if you order through an app, the portions are quite a bit smaller so it’s worth going in-person. Everything is good so you can’t miss, but I especially love the beans they use in the Al Pastor burrito and the salsa verde.“

“Was passing trough the neighborhood and found this gem online! It's a nice sized space not large or very tiny. It did start to fill up as we dined. The server did a great job with recommendations! She even informed us that they extended happy hour which included apps until 4pm that Saturday. Overall food was delicious and I will definitely be back. Loved their style of my favorite dessert tres leches cake!“

“I had my birthday here such a great place to have any celebration, the food was amazing the wait time for the food was not too long, and The staff was friendly and willing to help making it special and enjoyable. The price was too high though that was the only thing that was the issue. But I recommend this place“

“GREAT FOOD“

“Absolutely incredible tacos. Everything tasted so fresh and flavorful, like eating organic street food straight out of Mexico 🌮🔥 The portions were super filling without feeling heavy. You can tell there’s real care put into the food. Juan was also such a friendly soul and made the whole experience even better. Definitely one of those places you leave already planning your next visit.”“

“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!“

“Second time ordering take-out from here. They’re really friendly and have great service, but it’s not going to become my next favorite unfortunately. Food was okay, ordered cheese birria tacos which I thought would be cheese crusted rather than just some shredded cheese tossed inside.
The birria consome was great though! I think it was missing some salt but when combined with the tacos (as it should be) it was a perfect combination.

The place is small though, not a lot of seating space and the space that is available is a bit tight, so that ruins a bit of the atmosphere for me. But, for takeout nearby, I think it’s in the right neighborhood and deserves its round of applause.“

“Food is absolutely delicious!“

“We were jonesing for authentic Mexican before going to a show and found Tulum. Great margaritas, guac and really interesting Asian-mex fusion offerings. I had straight carnitas tacos that were great, friend got a “sushi” dish with octopus and husband got chicken tacos. Across the board all delicious. Highly recommend this place.“

“I want to visit this establishment for the first time yesterday they were very welcoming. It’s very cozy. Music is nice. The food was very good. The tostadas were excellent and of course I love my Mexican soda. Everything was good. Of course I will return.“

“food was really good. amazing staff“

“My friend nd I wanted Birria tacos so we found this restaurant off of TikTok. I stood in the car while he got the food but when he came back with the food he had a huge smile on his face. He said the costumer service was amazing and the lady that served him (I’m not sure of her name but she was an older lady) was very nice to him. She even gave us an extra free water. Not to mention the birria tacos were unbelievably delicious!! It was packed with the birria meat and the consume to go with it was so yummy. Amazing food and 10/10 experience.“

“I am absolutely thrilled to share my heartfelt gratitude, on behalf of the Center for the Women of New York (CWNY), for the incredible support we received from Avo Taco during our recent fundraising gala, Taste Around The World Fort Totten. Avo Taco truly went above and beyond, and their contribution made this night truly unforgettable. As an organization that heavily relies on the generosity of local restaurants, we couldn't have asked for a more dedicated and enthusiastic partner than Avo Taco. They not only delivered but exceeded all expectations. Avo Taco's commitment to our cause was evident from the moment they stepped in. Avo Taco brought more than just delicious food to our event; they brought a whole atmosphere of festivity. Their staff's warm and friendly presence added a wonderful touch to the evening. The tacos they served were an absolute delight – bursting with flavor and prepared to perfection. The guacamole paired with tortilla chips was a crowd-pleaser, and their attention to detail, right down to the decorative beads, truly helped create a festive ambiance. Avo Taco's generous contribution played a pivotal role in ensuring the success of our fundraising gala. It's businesses like these that make a significant difference in our community, and their dedication to giving back does not go unnoticed. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Avo Taco to everyone in search of not only delicious food but also a business that is deeply committed to its community. Avo Taco, thank you for making our event a resounding success, and we look forward to continuing to support your business as a token of our appreciation for your unwavering commitment to ours.

“The best Birria I've ever had. Nothing else even comes close. My partner is a vegetarian and says they also have the best mushroom tacos (loaded with beans and cheese, not too greasy).

Don't skip the salsa bar. Their orange sauce is incredible.

The service at Nene's is also top notch. The employees are very friendly and helpful. Food comes out fast even when their busy.“

“This is one of my favorite local spots! The food is delicious and never misses. I always get an al pastor and a chorizo taco. It’s affordable, quick, and easy! Their other dishes are also super yummy. A few tables if you want to dine in, but also still tastes great as takeout.“

“E x c e l l e n t e! This place has become one of the top two mexicano places to eat in Elmhurst, which Elmhurst being the nyc capital of truly good and authentic food, is a lot to say. Their chalupas are amazing. I could eat them everyday if it wasn't because they are fried tortillas. Their concha and cuernos are truly great. I've had tacos the other day and they were euqay amazing. I tried a shrimp tostada and to my delight, it was really good even thought I am not a big fan of mayo sauces.“

“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.“

“Pizza la Mexicana muy buena se los recomiendo“

“I was a big fan of the fried fish taco (Californian?). I was very disappointed since it was replaced by Floridian. They don’t taste the same. Any chance to bring back the fried fish taco?“

“I’ve ordered delivery from them twice now & both times those carne asada tacos were chefs kiss! 💋 they fill those tacos up (and double layer tortillas too) and add this delicious guacamole sauce/salsa… 10/10 and will be ordering more. $4.50 per taco is worth it here, period. You get your moneys worth.“

“I just ordered a smoked Brisket Pho, the Brisket was well cooked, the Broth was savory. Highly recommend!!!!!“

“orale tacos a recommended this place the tacos are good“

“I finally came here to try the famous crispy tacos, and my first bite was literally, “Whoa!” They were crispy, fresh, and so delicious. I also ordered a chicken bowl, which was very tasty with a generous portion.

I’ll definitely be back to try more items. I honestly don’t understand why the rating isn’t higher. Friendly staff, fresh ingredients, great food—a true hidden gem!“

“son muy ricos y las personas q atienden son demasiado amables“

“The best spot in the west end!“

“I tried their Birria Tacos and they have the best in the area. A couple dollars more than what you get charged elsewhere but it's so worth it because the taco never falls apart, which can be hard with Birria. The flavor, service, and overall quickness is why i always come to these guys. Where else could you get birria at 3am?“
