Stopped for dinner as wifey loves tacos, we've never been, and it was nearby. Overall, I was reminded of other burrito/taco chains that serve food in a similar style. Ordered three hard shell tacos - chicken, barbacao, and steak. Of the 3 the chicken tasted the best. The other 2 were a little too salty. Also ordered chips and guacamole and they were pretty good. Nothing special about the inside. It's mainly bar style seating with high chairs and high tables along the wall. The person who made our food was very friendly when we walked in. Asked if we had any questions as we looked over the menu. Overall not bad. I would be interested in trying the other protein options to see how they are.

I love Mexican food. When we heard about the opening of this branch which by the way near our place, we rushed to go when we get the chance. We maybe late to their location grand opening, but never late to give a try and a review on todays visit. Basically it works like the other Mexican food chain eg Chipotle, Hot Peppers. One thing that I have noticed right away from the rest is the drinks they offer, much less in choices and no alcoholic beverages , yet?!?!? I enjoyed my meal. One price for basic ingredients as the usual , guacamole and Queso are extra fee-, $3. Their selling point is that "the secret is in the sauce". I agreed. They have variety of choices and seems likely to give a beautiful dining experience to each diner. Everyone knows that the taste of a meal in a Mexican restaurant chain like this depends on what you pick to put in the order. I loved how they done my protein, juicy and tender grilled steak. The other ingredients to add to my burrito bowl seem very fresh. Great, delicious servings. Service is good . On this busy Friday promo, we received our guacamole free of charge and accepted my $5 coupon for signing up on their site. I had a good experience on this visit.

The food was delicious and the place was very clean, the service was good but they forgot my shredded cheese luckily I had some in the fridge. The family enjoyed and looks forward for our next visit. Oh and the most important thing the guac wasn't all that special.

I absolutely love the GUAC Shop! They have a location in Garden City & I was really excited when they bought it to New Hyde Park! Their food is fresh and they have a variety of things. You can order online or for delivery. Definitely great quality food & for me personally I enjoy it better than Chipotle.

A hidden gem but a star in the fast casual Mexican industry! The guacamole was some of the best I've had anywhere, and the queso had great flavor. My burrito and my friends bowl both lived up to expectations, and then some. Definitely will be back for this great quality Mexican with some unique items like the Mexican sweet potatoes.

We came here on a late afternoon that we did not feel like cooking at home. A small place with a few tables. The joint was neat and clean. They have a large parking at the back. When I first came in to the store, I noticed that they are very busy preparing food with a few costumers, and when I saw their foods packed for pick up I have the impression that they are popular on Pick-up orders. Me and my wife tried a burrito bowl for each, it was easy enough to order as service staff verbally guided me on my choices while I was in line. I opted for Barbacoa as my protein and my wife opted for steak. I chose brown rice, black beans and all the options available except for the garbanzos and mexi sweet potatoes, and as my sauce I went for chipotle mayo. Heads up, there is an extra charge for the optional Queso and guacamole, but luckily on that day, they were giving guacamole for free. I made the wrong choice of protein, I should have chosen steak instead of barbacoa, as the barbacoa was a little bit salty for my taste. They gave generous amounts of proteins and veggies on their burrito bowls. My stomach was full enough after I finished my bowl. All in all I was satisfied with their food, cleanliness and service. There are other competitions that offer free guacamole and that is $3.00 less on what you pay as compared to this place.

I stumbled upon this establishment through Instagram, and I must say the food I got today was very good . I ordered through the QUAC SHOP APP (very helpful) for pickup after work. I ordered 2 surf and turf performance bowls, and a carnitas burrito with queso on the side . Guac shop is VERY generous with their portion sizes and the bowls were full of flavor . The pick up system was fast and easy, and the resterant was very clean. Shout out to the ladies at the front who were so kind sweet and warm upon arrival. They always have great deals so I would advise you download their app asap. I will always continue to order from this restaurant as the food is fresh and tasty and the customer service is great . The only reason why I did not give the extra star is because my bowl was a little to sweet due to the yummy pineapples that come with the bowl. Next time I will just ask for less .

Just like Chipotle with different options. Got the bowl, and it was loaded up so many different ingredients. The food was fresh and tasty. Staff was super quick and had a fast checkout. Just a few seats in the back and a couple of soda options. Would recommend.

This place is a bit more expensive than, say, chipotle. The food is flavorful however and portions are decent. I like the mango salsa. My chicken burrito bowl was $13 for the portion you see below. The actual place itself is small and new since they're just starting up. There are small side bar/tables for 1-2 people but overall seems better for grab and go.

Vegetarian bowl with shrimp! I call it the pescatarian bowl!

And the food was just as good as it always was. I had the soft flour tortillas with Tex-mex chili, black and pinto beans. They were fresh and delicious. This place is a no-frills gem. It was great to get a whole meal for under $10. Highly recommend it.

I usually try something different each time to keep things fun, but one thing that never changes is how amazing the food and service are. Yesterday's order reminded me that I've been taking them for granted all these years. This is a fantastic, family-run business that truly cares about its customers. The wife is always friendly and fast--she takes orders with accuracy and warmth. She also looks out for me since I have a few food allergies. If I unknowingly order something that has green peppers, she'll immediately say, "NO, it has green peppers!" She's smart, strong, and always protecting her customers. Her husband handles the deliveries and knows me by name. That kind of personal touch is rare these days, and it means a lot. Fresco Tortilleria, thank you for years of amazing food and incredible service. You are hands-down the best oriental/Mexican fresh food spot in Forest Hills. A+ all the way.

Originally we thought it was going to be raw fish but it was better than that. It has a nice refreshing Hawaiian inspired taco vibe to it. The employees were kind.

It's one of those places that feels familiar in the best way. Comfort food that never really lets you down. I love how much they've grown and evolved over the years. They've done so much with this place, but it still gives you that real, good-deal Tex-Mex feel. The menu has expanded a lot and now includes more trending and popular items, which makes it great because there's truly a little something for everybody. Still, my go-to favorites never change: the taco salad bowl in that crunchy, delicious tostada shell, the chicken tacos, the steak tacos, and every now and then the shrimp tacos if I'm feeling fancy. I always ask for extra sour cream and salsa. Speaking of salsa, the recipe has definitely changed over the years. It's gotten a bit spicier. While it's still really good, I'll admit that as I've gotten older, I can't handle the heat quite like I used to. That said, it's still part of the experience and adds to the bold flavor Yummy Taco is known for. Yummy Taco is one of those places that grows with you. It's nostalgic, filling, affordable, and consistently delicious. Definitely a staple if you love solid Tex-Mex with plenty of options and personality.

I like fresh taco. There are a lot a dumb reviews about how this isn't "authentic" Mexican food…read more It's literally not, I'd consider it it's own category...let's call it Chexmex. Owned by Chinese people, these styles of fast food restaurant were all over the city in the 1990s. It's really no frills, super cheap and honestly delicious. I would not come here and order seafood. Or anything else elaborate for that matter. I come here strictly for 3 ground beef crunchy tacos served with lettuce tomato and hot sauce for $8.50. They're like tacobell style but have a hand made quality to them which makes them very unique. I would take away one star but I'm just gonna leave five bc their yelp page needs some love, but it's just sort of annoying that they're cash only in the era of Apple Pay. Like I know these places come from the 90s but it doesn't mean we need to pay like it's the 90s. Get a card reader please and I'll be here all the time.

I have the same order for 26 years I ordered so much and the same order they knew who I was from the call ID 26 YEARS! There was nothing wrong and they changed everything Nothing taste the same Tried to eat the hard shell steak taco and threw it away. Best grilled chicken Caesar salad GONE It's such a shame they are catering to the influx of new people in the neighborhood and not the community that kept them open for decades. They won't survive, CHIPOTLE taste better Some things are better left alone We lost another one, Bushwick:(
