gone are the days when you could get a cheap $10 lunch in New York. But this is the closest thing, they give you a boat load of food, the guys are really nice and the options are just like chipotle except if chipotle didn't suck and taste awful. The food here is really tasty and fresh, the restaurant is clean, the seating is good, it is conveniently located near the subway... Did I mention the guys are really nice? I wish they would open a guac time in Williamsburg off the Graham Avenue L train stop read more

Two Birria Tacos don't seem with for dinner, but at Guac Time they are. I order from here frequently, Nachos and Birria Tacos being my favorite. Always well packed and delicious! read more

Guac Time - Mexican Near Me - New York, New York

I've only ever had their burritos numerous times. On Uber Eats and take out . They are very professional and pay attention to every single request. The fact that they are halal makes it comfortable to order anything. I would give it five stars but I haven't had the opportunity to dine in. Which I'm sure would be great. read more

The employees were all very nice. The place was clean, but in general, the food was pretty bland. I ordered the taco box and it just lacked flavor. Maybe I should try something else here for a better experience read more

i won't be ordering from here again. i was excited to try a halal taco spot, so i ventured here for lunch and ordered the tacos. i got one steak and one honey bbq chicken, both with crispy corn shells, for $10. i appreciated you could mix and match many toppings, but the flavors and meat were so meh. there were also a bunch of giant flies swarming around!! so disappointed because i had heard great things from people who come here as an alternative to birria les - which IMO reigns supreme. maybe if i had the beef birria tacos i would have had a better experience. 1.5 stars because service is fast, the staff are friendly, and it's halal. read more

The burrito was delicious. It was a Mexican and Indian fusion. The burrito was very flavorful, filling but light at the same time. They gave good portions I highly recommend this place. Also on Uber Eats they have a good deal when you buy one, get one free. The guy was nice and friendly. Good service! read more

I recently ordered online from Guac Time. I got the 2 for 1 birria tacos, consume, steak quesadilla, and churros. Everything was just about average ://. I really wanted to like this place! I've tried tons and tons of birria places around the city and have even made my own at home (with the whole dried pepper, slow cooking magic, trust me). These tasted a bit strange... I will say, they LOADED them with the beef, which I very much appreciated. But the consume was more like a thicker sauce/smooth salsa rather than the yummy cilantro/onion-y beefy broth I'm used to. The tacos themselves were filled with beef and a sort of queso sauce, which I'm not a fan of in general. I'm not sure how they make theirs but most quesos use velveeta which I can't stand the taste of. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt, but I was craving some more cilantro, some pico de gallo, some sort of acidity in addition to the little mini singular lime I got. I'm not sure whether they just have a very different recipe than what I'm used to, but I didn't quite enjoy the tacos, and found them to be very expensive $25/3, given I got 3 free on top, which made it worth it. My friend said the kids steak quesadilla was fine. The churros were slightly underdone, but certainly the best part of the meal. They had the perfect amount of cinnamon sugar! I just wish they served them with a sort of chocolate dipping sauce. Overall, I don't think this is the place for me, but if the recipe sounds like your style, check it out! read more

We ordered from here for lunch through their website and was sent a text to call to confirm our order. After calling we were told that no door dasher has been assigned and we would have to call back in 15 minutes. We waited and called back only to be told we would have to pick up our order. We could not which is why we were ordering delivery. So we ultimately had to cancel our order. There was no attempt to try to resolve the situation and the nonchalant attitude definitely wasn't professional. I suggest ordering through door dash and not through their website. I am so turned off I will not be ordering from here again. read more

I'm still in bed 2 days later. This meal will haunt me for the rest of my life. There's life before this restaurant and there's life after.

I tried them for the first today in my short stay in New York. I was utterly disappointed with the food and the quality. The sauce/consume is describe as broth and it's not broth. It was so thick. Thicker than me. ;) anyways, I was really looking forward to eating this you can tell by the photos I took and it was not a good experience at all. The coke tasted like iron? I didn't see an expiration date but I'm pretty it's expired. The tacos had thousand island dressing on them and I wasn't able to eat it all and it pains me to throw away food read more

Food (3/5): This is my second time trying this place and was pleased to see they had birria tacos this time and I do love me some of that. I got one order of birria tacos along side a steak burrito bowl. The birria taco order included three well sized tacos and a cup of consume (broth). I was kind of surprised to see the consume cup was kinda just a small cup, the smallest portion I've been given so far compared to other places I've tried. It also wasn't as flavored as much as it could've been. The tacos themselves had good textures and were decent. The meat was pretty good. But for birria tacos, the star of the show is the consume since you have to dip the taco in it which has most of flavor and with that being a bit bland as well, was slightly disappointed. For the steak bowl, it had decent flavors. The toppings were all mostly fresh. The steak cuts themselves were okay though it could have a bit more flavor and was slightly chewy. Overall wasn't bad. Environment (3.5/5) / Service (4/5): They renovated a bit since the last time I arrived and it's nicer. There's a few tables for indoor seating. It can be a bit cleaner but they will clean the table up for you if you ask or if they see you that you need it cleaned. The service was fast and efficient. If you need to pray, they let you pray be downstairs which was appreciated. Overall a decent spot if you're in the area. It's nice to see different types of halal food opening up over the years! read more

They always have deals and the food is large portions and always good. They also have a very extensive menu.

I ordered a bowl with impossible meat and it tasted like having covid no flavor at all I was genuinely confused. Food made me more depressed. read more

When it states that food comes with sides, they mean salsa.... Steak doesn't look like steak, its so overcooked its purple. I'd rather get chipotle read more

Guac Time - Burrito Bowl - Mexican Near Me - New York, New York

Amazing! Large portions and you get a lot of food for the price. Much better than Chipotle.

Two much rice in the burrito. They SENT 0 sauces. Me and my friends had to scarf down dry burritos . Literally ruined the meal

Service was good it was super quite at 12.30pm on a Sunday Hillside Ave ,Queens placed looked clean with a few tables but we were coming in ordering & taking our food. The food was great but i gave 4 stars because we were offered spicy and it was not even mild. We got burrito bowls and they were filling, great portion size with a great variety of toppings, id say better than a chipotle the scoop of guac was worth the cost.l Definitely want to go back again and next time get my bowl with the chipotle honey chicken and want to try the jerk chicken ! read more

The Birria tacos are amazing! Super flavorful and always on point. Also the bowls are always yummy and the mango salsa is absolutely delish!

Food safety is a huge concern. No city hygiene reports anywhere and employees do not change gloves between orders or processing payments. Avoid unless you have an iron gut. read more

Great service but the pricing was a bit confusing.Create your own tacos apparently a protein is extra ( that's what I was told )It should state that on the menu . If I wanted extra then I would understand .The taco box which has a protein is less .In the end my build your own taco cost way to much for me to return back . read more

The elderly lady with the glasses behind the counter did not give me the receipt as she shooed me away. I don't know if I was getting over charged. The lady shooed away customers after customers swiped their credit card, so that if they overcharged, consumers would not notice. That's why this restaurant doesn't give you the receipt. Wealthy people and tourists frequently visit here. They can afford and don't mind getting ripped off. These people don't check how much they are being charged, so they don't need to see the receipt I guess. read more

Really weird vibes inside, not to mention entirely underwhelming food. Maybe not the worst Mexican I've ever had, but I wouldn't rank this any higher than Chipotle or Dos Toros. read more

Ladies and gentleman, saying this is a good restaurant would be an understatement. My distinguished friends and I order Birria and Fish tacos probably once and week. They are so good I had to write my first every Yelp review just to talk about how good this food is. I highly recommend Guac Time to anyone who's hungry, I just finished my serving of Birria tacos and I already want more. read more

Food was excellent, and my bowl was filled to the lid. Will definitely be coming back to try out their other options. I got their Honey Chipotle Chicken this time. Lubna was the server who helped me and made really good suggestions for what to try. Shoutout to her :) read more

Every good quality good always fresh great portions friendly staff better than chipotle by far to me

On the way home from the gym in Brooklyn, I stopped by for some Mexican tacos. Turns out this is an Indian Restaurant masquerading as a Mexican restaurant. Stale taco shells, cold meat and limp vegetables and not a Mexican in sight. I actually threw it away and I never toss food. I wasted $14.00. I'm going back Chipotle, 1 block frim the gym and I'll continue to go there. Hard Pass! read more

We ordered 4 burritos, all with guacamole, 3 with sour cream, cheese... but no guac on them at all.... no sour cream at all, no cheese at all. All of the protein was skimp to non existent. The fajita veggies and all other fillings were clearly sitting out for hours and not even slightly warm. All cold food... sucks because the flavors used were decent, but we could tell that the entire order was rushed and prepared carelessly. For a first time customer from this restaurant, it will also be our last. First impressions matter, and selling food this way is actually disrespectful. read more

I walked past by the store my daughters and my son wanted to get something to eat. They wanted tacos so we went in and saw them create the tacos. I was so flabbergasted until I saw a worker pick up the food from the ground and put it in my food and my 30 years of living I've never ever ever ever seen something disgusting like this I am flabbergasted. I'm disappointed and this is insane, this is the worst service I've ever seen in my life my son got food poisoning because of this I decided to order another taco. My son opened the taco, and they found a cockroach in my sons taco then the guy proceeded to scratch his butt and served the food he had no gloves on. He didn't wash his hands. This is the most disgusting thing I've ever seen in my 30 years of living. I'm so disappointed please someone help me share this story. read more

This was my third visit to this place where the employee approached me without a mask to serve me food! The two previous times I mentioned he should be wearing a mask and he immediately put one on but c'mon a third time? It's too bad because I like the food but definitely won't be going again!!! read more

Absolutely delicious food - grilled chicken and sauces are awesome - it's like halal chipotle

Ordered through grubhub for lunch. I ordered a barbacoa salad, no rice, with fajita veggies and green salsa verde. They sent me a rice bowl with chicken, corn, and pico de gallo. It was the opposite of what I ordered and it was just okay. I don't think I'd order from here again. read more

They cancelled my catering order the day of - 2 hours before. Very disappointed, it was individual orders as well.

Guac time is one of our local favorites! Very similarapproach to Chipotle where you can get a bowl or burrito and customize your meat, toppings, etc., but with many more topping and flavor options that make it a better option. My favorite part is that queso and spicy queso are both included for free, which is really uncommon for a restaurant of this kind. A single bowl also usually lasts me for two meals because the portion sizes are big! read more

Pretty good price and portion for a protein bowl. I got one of the "performance bowls" but looks like they have plenty of options and ways to customize. Food tasted good and staff was friendly! Would try it again read more

Ordered from here for the first time, I got the steak quesadilla probably the worst one I've ever had. It was dry, super dry. There was no cheese pull and no seasoning. It was as flat as a pancake. My friend ordered a protein bowl and they added sour cream even though she didn't request it there for she did not enjoy it. The only saving grace were the plantains. 10/10 for that. They were soft in the middle but still had the burntness on the outside. The churro was pretty good too. Pretty moist. Probably wouldn't order from here again. read more

good...good.good so good. good. The food is great!!! Chetan the manager is the best. highly recommend!!!!!!
