    Tacos El Bronco, specifically the truck, has long been on my list and I'm so happy to finally cross it off. Even on a frightfully cold evening, there was still a steady flow of customers at the brightly lit truck. I ordered the suadero and the al pastor ($3ea) con todo, which came with cucumber slices, lime wedges, and a roasted scallion. The al pastor was delicious and really hit the spot, though the suadero was shockingly too dry for my taste. I'd love to return if I'm ever in the area to try the rest of the menu. Shoutout to the hardworking staff, who sling amazingly affordable tacos in all weather!

    I have to say, you must try the soup here! Super flavorful and rich! If I were to come back, I would get the soup all over again. Beef tongue taco had too much fat than i expected but overall still delicious taco. Price was fair as this is NYC. I love the garlic tho, very interesting . Overall a good experience and the staffs were friendly.

    A friend and I were staying in a hotel that was walking distance to where the taco truck was located. We ended up giving it a try and I'm so happy we did !! I ended up getting three al pastor tacos which were a 14/10!! My friend ended up getting one al pastor taco and two shrimp or steak tacos. The food was nice, fresh, hot, and delicious! If you go to Brooklyn definitely stop here ! The service was pretty fast! We paid with cash. The gentlemen were all so nice and friendly !

    Legendary taco food truck! Just know that they are CASH ONLY so bring lots of cash because you'll want to order at least three tacos if you're trying to fill up for a meal! They sell these delicious street tacos with choices that are authentic and reminds you of the food you get in Mexico City. (According to my partner). There is always at least one person eating there whenever I walk by, but the wait is quick so don't be intimidated if you do see a crowd. They do have a couple benches near by for you to sit and eat but if not you can always grab your tacos and do a picnic at sunset park nearby.

    I think this is overrated. It's good and the soup was the best part. But for the price probably not worth it. Service was good and it's a food truck so you kinda just sit on the nearby bench which is also fine. Typical taco truck tacos cost more than they shoot

    Simply the best tacos in Brooklyn. Affordable and delicious and authentic. The Al pastor and carne (steak) were the best, but all the meats are worth trying. The service is pretty quick but expect a long line when the weather is nice.

    Tacos were delicious! This is my first time going to this taco truck location. Growing up in Brooklyn, I frequent the Tacos El Bronco restaurant on 4th Avenue quite often to get my taco fix. One weekend night, my husband and I find ourselves in Brooklyn and we decided to do a memory lane food crawl of all my childhood favorite foods. It was a rainy, wet Saturday late night but the truck was still jamming! We got four tacos ($3.00 each) and a small birria soup ($5.00). Lengua, Al Pastor, Bistec, and Chorizo were our choices of meat for the tacos. They were all delicious! My favorite was Al Pastor and hub's favorite was the Lengua. The Al Pastor was perfectly seasoned and the mix of spice and pineapple was darn good. I also loved the grilled green onion that it came with. One thing I would change is that I wished that the tortilla can be a bit heated or grilled - it tasted a little bland. Nonetheless, I am coming back again! The small birria soup came in a coffee paper cup but was really tasty, it had plenty of meat and just a squeeze of lime made it even better! Cash only!

    One of the most hyped taco stands in NY (based on what reddit says lol) so I swung by here for a cheap bite! They only serve tacos and they were about $3 each. There was a large crowd when I went but ordering was easy. You take your order with one of the workers' with their ipads and you pay after you receive your food. After that you wait in their seating area until they call your name. The taste of the tacos do not compare to California's but it was alright for what it is. I could not taste the difference between their al pastor and steak lol. Both could use a little more seasoning tbh.

    Past it's prime

    The tacos I ordered had very little meat, and they were carelessly thrown into the container. The order took a while to prepare. Overall, it seems this place is past its prime.

    Tacos still worth the cost, al pastor being an all time favorite. Birria isn't bad but not as good as birria landia! Tacos always fresh and filled to top with ingredients. Worth a visit!

    Ever since moving to NYC, I've been trying to find a good taco, burrito, etc. I was so excited to try Tacos El Bronco because of their meat offerings of lengua, buche, and tripa. Sadly, they didn't have tripa on the day I went, but they did have lenga and buche available. While the al pastor was tender, and they provided plenty of pineapple, the flavor just wasn't that prominent. Lengua was tender but lacked seasoning. The buche was so soft. It barely required any chewing. While the meats are tender, they lacked a strong flavor. They include a hefty amount of meat for each taco. They provide salsa verde and roja on the side and a grilled onion. Prices are amazing (~$3/taco) for NYC. There are benches in front of the truck, but it seems that most people just grab their tacos to go. I ended up eating my tacos at a park nearby.

    This place hits the spot for late night. They were wrapping up at midnight but we got there just in time. We ordered the al pastor (roasted pork), buche (pork stomach), special of Birria (Beef stew) + small soup, Cabeza (veal head), and Lengua (beef Tongue). Each item was $3. I appreciated the heater blasting in the enclosed space. it was much appreciated on a cold night. Service was excellent. you know business is good when they have a person with an Ipad outside helping the non-Spanish speakers order the food. Check out their restaurant on 4324 4th avenue. It was opened up to 1AM and the tables were still full of people. Service was excellent!

Let's start with the good - the service and ambiance were on point. I went on a Sunday evening around 7pm. It was busy inside, but since I was a solo diner I was seated immediately by the bar. The servers were friendly and attentive. Probably 3-4 different people checked in multiple times throughout the meal. Where I struggle is with the actual burger itself. As a non-resident New Yorker, for me $22.50 is a lot to spend on a burger and fries. It needs to rock my world at that price point. And it just didn't. I got the B&B Burger. The onion ring tasted like it had been refried a second time to make my burger. The bread was crumbly like it was on the verge of going stale. The actual beef patty itself was decent - good flavor. Usually I can overlook an okay burger if the fries are top notch, but these fries were under-seasoned and also 'just okay'. I also got a side of Chicken Tenders. These were good - no complaints here. I really wanted to like this spot, but not sure this would be a return visit for me.

Friendly waitress greeted us and sat us immediately. Menu's came out and they recommended a pizza and burger. We agreed and ordered. Place started to pick up and get busy immediately after we ordered. Food came out pretty quickly. We each had a burger. Not a lot of options on the menu but we all tried the emily burger. It was worth it. Think, juicy and with an amazingly unique taste. The ingredients were high quality, the burger cooked to perfection. The table also split the modern pizza (I think). Not sure what to expect from this one but turns out it was perfect, unique and delicious. The cheese taste really shined through. Overall, we were super happy with the food here. Stop by if you have a chance.

Today however it wasn't pizza that brought me here, it was the famous Emmy Burger. To begin with the atmosphere of the restaurant is dim lighting a few tables with a reasonable sized bar in the middle of the room. They also have an open kitchen concept where just past the bar you can see the cooks working. My server Inda was polite and knowledgeable about the menu. My burger was excellent, normally I don't eat my burger with a knife and folk, but in this case with all the cheese and sauce oozing down the sides, not to mention the caramelized onions, it was necessary. (If I were home I wouldn't mind having burger juices running down my arm, but other people were eating in the restaurant also). The tiny pickles which I can't remember the name of were an added treat to the burger. I decided to order mine with the loaded fries. Just imagine the ground burger with all the toppings covering french fries and add melted white cheese. Since I was alone I didn't order a pizza because how would I eat it all, but next time I will try the pizza. I don't mind paying extra for a burger when it's aged beef and the taste is great. I definitely recommend this location. There is a fast food burger restaurant next door to Emily's but I can't imagine there burgers compare. I will try them another time and let you know. That's all for now, see you on my next review.

They say some things age like fine wine, and I believe this restaurant falls in that category. After 55 years, this family oriented fast food shop known for its famous roast beef sandwich and other popular greasy goodness is still standing. I swung by recently for my usuals and glad to report that everything still tasted the same, just slightly more pricey year after year as expected. My regular order has always been the Roast Beef w/ Cheese, which was maybe $4 when I first tasted it over 25 years ago. It is now $9.45 or $.50 less for no cheese. Regardless, the roast beef (medium) is still tender and juicy, piled on top of a soft and pillowy, freshly made bread that's been dunked in a bath of delicious beef gravy. The ooey gooey cheese makes it complete for me. Everything else is solid. Nothing fantastic or worth driving out of your way for. Don't come here looking for the best version of everything on the menu. However, if in the neighborhood, this place is an inexpensive experience that brings you back in time, when the world was less complicated and a night out with family meant a delicious trip to a local restaurant like Roll-N-Roaster. Enjoy it for what it is and you'll have a good time.

We spent enough ($50) to get a free pizza and that too was tasty - thin crust. Can't wait to stop by again in another few years. It's worth the stop.

The bun is soft and sweet and the burger has a good amount of sautéed mushrooms. Truffle Parmesan fries were pretty standard, but still very good. Yuzu honey lemonade has bits of citrus at the bottom of the drink and it was refreshing. I saved the chicken bites hours later and it was still pretty crispy after being microwave.

He recommended that I try his cola shake. That is what I got, plus the whipped cream. I was honestly looking for the taste of Coca-Cola because Cola is in the name. Regardless of what I expected, the shake was pretty good. I am not a shake person, so when he asked me to try it, I made an exception. Overall: I plan on coming back to Bun Haus. This was good eats.
