Ok yes the tacos are not the best in the world... but considering the location? This is pretty…read morepretty good, given that it's in Manhattan (a place not known for great Mexican food). A food truck right next to the subway in the upper west side, food is all cooked to order, and kept very well on my commute home to lower Manhattan. I liked that they had so many options for tacos, my favorite was La lengua (very flavorful and not dry). A few tacos had meat that was a little dry, but I was here at 9 pm so I wasn't expecting something out of this world. The burrito al pastor was GREAT. It was huge and had lots of filling. Cash only. The quesadilla is interesting, it had cotija cheese, lettuce and sour cream, which i was not expecting but it was a nice surprise, and my toddler enjoyed it so that's a win. I wouldn't go out of my way to visit this, but if i was in the area again, I would get it for a pretty solid and yummy dinner. We paid $40 for dinner for 3 people and still had leftovers.

They just recently painted their truck to the Mexico flag colors so you can't miss it. Ingenious idea to located right in front of the Mexican embassy so they get a lot of their customers from there. I love their chorizo tacos. They got them tacos with two corn tortilla and decent amount of meat. They give you cilantro and white onions so it's pretty authentic. They give you green sauce and red sauce, but be careful the red sauce is straight up fire. If you don't like spicy, stay away from the red sauce or you'll regret it later being on the toilet later. I also get their beef quesadilla. Tastes pretty good and I like it that they give you good amounts of meat. Make sure to try the tamales as well. They are pretty good. Prices aren't too bad. $3 a taco, $6 for a quesadilla, $2 for a tamale. Make sure to come early around 11:30. If you come later, all the good meats are gone like chorizo and carnitas. A lot of construction workers frequent this place and many people from the embassy. When you see a crowd like that you know this taco truck is legit.

This food is unbelievably delicious and I feel like I get spoiled every time go pick up lunch from…read morehere. This is my first meal from this food truck, located on 39th Street and Park Avenue, and it's probably the most addictive food I've had in a while. My experience when I went the first time was pretty chill, since I got there around 2~2:30 for a late lunch. There was no line but asking for a burrito, they informed me they had no more rice & beans for a burrito. But the man at the window was very kind and recommended the enchiladas, which has EVERYTHING, except the rice & beans. I have no regrets, because they give four (!) enchiladas per order! Stuffed entirely with your protein of choice, this will be MORE than enough to fill you. Without knowing what I know now, I got the jalapeño & cheese tamale to hold me over. Now I know, two tamales would be the equivalent of one order of enchiladas! The real star: the flavor. Every part of my meal was delicious and amazingly seasoned to perfection. The spicy chicken is /legit/ spicy, with what seems to be like heat from a habanero. I thrive off of spicy food, so this was a welcome surprise. The tamale, though, a beautifully creamy masa, light spice from the jalapeño and center of melted cheese. TL;DR: I would wholeheartedly recommend trying them or making them a weekly staple! Get the tamales (if they have it!) because they will be a delicious treat. I crave them even now.

Mexican Food Cart…read more The cutest little food cart. Prime location at 86th and Second Avenue. He opens daily at 9:30am my favorite time for brunch! The price is right, he's efficient, clean and there's plenty of room for social distancing while you wait for your food. The trouble is when I went today it was a different guy. I said give me extra beans because I didn't want meat and leave off tomatoes because I'm allergic. Well in addition I didn't find any grated cheese, it's like a cheese powder on it, and he said he puts guacamole on top but he didn't. The good news I'm full and it was cheap and fast. I don't plan to return though. It's a cute cart but not that cute! It's not good when you get to the location where you plan to eat and find your food isn't up to par. Maybe you will have better luck.
