My friend and I came across this place just walking by, and we tried it and loved it. The food was delicious (we had the chicken tacos and Maduros) and some drinks. The atmosphere was nice , pleasant and felt like home. and the customer service was really good. I def want to come back here . Thank you!!!!! read more

The food was delicious. It took awhile because it was made with love. The service was good. The ambiance was nice that is what attracted me to this location. I look forward to returning to try something new. read more

Hmmm, the first time here at this place. I work down the block, anywhoz it was Taco Tuesday and why not lol. Nice place on the inside and my food was really good. I had some chicken tacos and tostones with a root beer. I really wanted to taste the watermelon margarita mad with Red Bull, but I was still at work smh. My only issue was that the girl never checked to see if I was good or wanted anything else. I had to get her attention, and I really don't like that at any establishment!!!. And that plays a big part in me leaving a tip. It's a one and done for me, but if you are in the area, do stop by. read more

I was there 1 minute before the opening hours but the worker saw me and walked away. A woman tried the door and I told her it was locked. She ignored me and waved down the worker inside. He let the woman in (she must have been the waitress) and they locked the door on me. It was 30 degrees outside and they simply wouldn't let me wait inside. Before they locked the door on me, I asked, are you guys open? They said no and immediately closed the door behind them. All the lunch signs and ads were placed outside the door as if they were opened. I will not be dining here due to the rude workers and the fact that the hours advertised are not true. The workers open shop whenever they want. read more

My friend stumbled upon this restaurant and said they were really good so we had to try. We ordered nachos for the table and I got a passionfruit margarita that was good. I enjoyed the tacos I got carne asada and carnitas. A ton of onion and cilantro but I just took off what I thought was too much. I definitely recommend asking for the salsa verde, that took the tacos from pretty good to really good for me! read more

We needed a quick spot to grab a bite to eat before a concert at Barclays. We found Besito, and it was simple and empty. At first I was worried about what we stepped into, but upon ordering everything was so fresh. Even the vegetarian options were on point. The avocado con queso taco was delicious, and the veggie chimichanga actually had vegetables and not onions as a filler. It had all the cheesy deliciousness of Mexican food but felt healthful. I was pleasantly surprised. The service was fine - they are clearly just doing their jobs, but that's many casual New York City restaurants. read more

Besito Restaurant and Bar - Avocado con Queso Taco - Tacos Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This is your quality neighborhood Mexican go-to place that's very reasonably priced. Met up with a friend mid week for dinner. Plenty of spaces to seat. Our server was very nice, we started with a couple of mojitos and the nachos. Perfect size and yummy shareable plate for two. And it was a solid complement to the tacos we got. Service was a little bit on the slower side but nothing too bothersome. Overall, clean place has everything for a casual quality bite. Will be back read more

Small space, great service, really good food and bartenders! I randomly walked into this place to give it a try and it was one of the better decisions Ive made in life ha! The drinks are made with love, have you leaving happier than when you walked in and kisses to the chef for making that food everything you need! read more

Atmosphere unwelcoming and aervice was terrible. Sat at the bar which wasn't busy. Young lady behind the bar never greeted me and barely acknowledged me then proceeded to slide the menu over from her side of the bar. Still was never greeted. Had some questions about the menu that's still unanswered. Placed an order for food and the order was not correct. Girl behind the bar never offered to rectify once I made her aware. Food o did get was good but the experience and customer service received from the bar tender was BAD! Believe the reviews about the service. Its true read more

So far Ive only been to Besito for their drinks, so when I come back for food I'll be sure to update accordingly. These drinks are delicious! I went with a friend the first time & he got the best coconut frozen margarita I've ever tried. I think I got a mojito, which I was definitely happy about but I can almost taste that marg again right now. I went back another time after a long walk & to my pleasant surprise, they had a bucket full of ice-cold, already mixed boozy drinks. I grabbed a blue one & went on my way! What a treat. In & out within two minutes. read more

Besito Restaurant and Bar - Ice cold & thirst quenching, but also...she boozy! - Tacos Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

One of my favorite restaurants in all of New York. Sublime cooking; all the dishes are special!

I'm not big I'm leaving reviews, but holy cow does this place deserve one, and a fantastic 5 star at that. Before I even went outside to get the food from delivery guy I could smell how good it was. My order came nice and hot and super quick with everything the way i ordered, no mistakes. I got the arroz con camarones, mofongo Besito, flan, tres leche cake, and mojito. Everything looks good!! This place rocks and if you haven't given them a chance please do so. I'll be updating for how it tastes once I finish. Enjoy all the photos. read more

Cute corner bar/restaurant in Park Slope. We'd already had lunch nearby and Saturday afternoon felt young so the inviting brunch/happy hour all day sign outside invited me in. I wanted...basically craved a margarita - spicy, to be exact - but that wasn't really an option. I got a spiced margarita with Tajin around the rim of the glass, but a true spicy one with jalapeños wasn't in the cards. A little disappointing, but eh, I survived. I also recommend that this change - stat! We also enjoyed a slice of tres leches cake which was delicious and lived up to my hopes. Cute place that looks fairly new. Very polite and attentive staff. read more

Chicharrón se utiliza para describir algunos alimentos fritos, típicamente chicharrón de cerdo (chicharrones), pero también chicharrón de pollo, que se elabora con bocados de pollo con piel, cubiertos con harina (I got chicken breast cut up and fried plantains were hard and old !) Called and told the waitress he excuse was oh well that's how we do I ! shameful i am Dominican and no we do cook Chicharrón de pollo like this on 2/8/2024 read more

This restaurant is right around my aunt's house in Park Slope and I love coming here as it's usually chill during the day and they have both buffet and made-to-order items. If I just want to pick up a quick lunch to go, this is my go to. Their drinks are on the pricier side with $15 and up but the food is surprisingly not. They are literally about two blocks from the Barclays Center. Check it out. read more

My motto is if you have nothing good to say"SAY NOTHING" Very disappointing. I was never asked if I wanted desert or coffee just "do you want your check"...I had to add my last sentence to post this review....GOOD LUCK read more

We were back for our first post-pandemic visit and were so happy to see this little place survive. The staff is always friendly and accomodating. The food was delicious! The grilled pork chops were tender, juicy and savory. Perfectly seasoned. The yellow rice was nice, and the beans were good too. The fried snapper was superb, as always. The arepas were magnificent. And one of the regular patrons paid our bill--which was an unexpected gift but made the whole experience even more interesting. The booths are gone, but they now also have a sidewalk cafe. It's a small place but not cramped. Love this place! read more

I love this place ... I've been coming for a awhile I usually eat fried chicken chunks it's delicious... My cousin loves the steak with onions .. Drinks were great.. Albert was our waiter and he was sooooooo nice.. read more

Good friendly service, modest menu, offering nice lunch specials...had a fresh tasting carnitas burrito. Roast Pork

Besito was alright, I had the chicken chunks which wasn't seasoned at all and white rice they gave me black bean sauce I would not recommend that for anyone that want gravy on their rice without the beans. My husband had the shrimp alfredo and he said that it was good, he also had the coconut mojito he didn't enjoy it. I'm happy I got to try it because Besito was all over Tiktok. I probably won't eat here again nor would I recommend it. Lastly, customer service was cool... read more

Besito Restaurant and Bar - a drink in a plastic cup - Tacos Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Appetizer: Chips & Guac $7 Rating: 4/10 The avocado was not good at all, they put the ingredients on top of the avocado so you have to mix it yourself when they bring it to your table. The chips I believe are homemade and kind of give me a taco bell feel, who doesnt like taco bell. Entrees: 2 tacos no cheese no sour cream. $4 ea. Rating: 3/10 Sub-par... more onions and cilantro then meat. Mofongo Besito. $16 Rating: 7/10 Mofongo with shrimp in a red sauce. At first I was soo impressed with the flavor. It was so delicious, not dried at all. But the more I ate it, the more taste of garlic was becoming over powering. That's when I saw they use garlic sauce for tostones inside the mofongo. Overall I still really liked it... the shrimp was good as well. The red sauce was so delicious! Waitresses were very attentive and quick, thank you ladies. read more

I will give this restaurant 2 stars for their drinks and fast service. However, I did not enjoy my food at all. I ordered a cheese burger with a side of guacamole & chips. The cheese burger was so burnt and hard, it was hard for me to bite into. In fact, I was completely unable to bite into it. I then requested to have it made over. The waitress asked me if I wanted it medium rare and I specifically told her no! I did not want it to be pink! Anyway, she made the burger over and it was so rare that the blood was on the plate. I was so disgusted at that point. Moreover, their guacamole was not very tasty as it needed salt. It was very tasteless. I will not return! read more

I used to come here before the pandemic, when I actually reported in person to work--it's right near the Fifth Avenue bus that I take home. The staff are very nice and friendly, which is always a good sign. I've eaten here a few times--burritos and nachos. The food is tasty, but I do wish the portions were a little larger. read more

We've been to Besito twice. The service is always friendly. The food was good the first time--we had sandwiches. But this second time we had three entrees: the shrimp mofongo, roast pork, and the fried red snapper. It was fantastic! The wait was not long. Perfectly seasoned and delivered at just the right temperature. It is a small place, but the food packs a punch! It was fun and relaxed, and if you want to have good food and a good conversation, this is an excellent choice. There is a tiny bar, but we didn't drink this time around. Next trip we'll go for tacos and margaritas. I'm tempted to give it the 5-stars now, but want to be reasonable and give it three visits before I commit. But it's worth it: the service is good, the food is tasty, and the prices are not bad at all! We are definitely going back. read more

Rare and elusive non-greasy burritos served here. Having visited innumerable Mexican/Latin American restaurants in Brooklyn, I can say without a shadow of a doubt that this my favorite. Thanks for the grub. read more

This little corner spot family owned restaurant is all you need! The perfect, quite strong magarita with a couple of vegetarian tacos hits the spot. The tacos are so fresh and simple, they are my favorite on the whole of 5th Ave. The owners are fantastic and know how to make you feel at home and have the perfect lunch or dinner. Outdoor seating all around the corner spot. read more

The food is mediocre at best. No chips and salsa when you are seated, epic fail in my opinion. Any good restaurant has something for you to nosh on as you look over the menu. Service was lacking. I had the steak quesadilla, not the best but not the worst either. The sangria had a bit of a tangy flavor but it was good. I mean it was $5 woohoo :) I left with a full bellly and a little buzz but not sure I will be back. read more

I'm lucky enough to travel the US on both business and pleasure, and whenever I'm in a city I always try a locally owned Mexican restaurant. Besito is probably the best Mexican food I've ever had. When I see 'Diablo' on the menu, whether its chicken or shrimp, I have to try it. Besito's version of Diablo Shrimp is incredible. Heat and spice, but not overwhelming. You have to have a meal at Besito's whenever you are in Brooklyn. Thank you to the people at Besito's for the great food and even better service! read more

I ordered the fresh ground meat hamburger with fries, I have to say though the delivery was quick the food itself was pretty underwhelming, I received a handful of fries and an undercooked burger. The burger itself had potential to be better, I would've preferred a brioche bun over the soggy mess I received.Since the restaurant is fairly new I will order from them again and try other dishes, but my first impression was honestly meh. read more

The staff was very attentive and hospitable. The mojito was very yummy! And the flavors were good on my enchilada. But, I notice a lot of restaurants have an issue making their beef options softer. In an enchilada, I want to not have to dispose of the beef in a napkin as I go along. Rating would have been higher if beef was buttery in texture. read more

I come here always for breakfast and they modify my breakfast the way I like it. They have freshly squeezed orange juice very delicious and sweet. They have a full bar, coffee and espresso.

1. We waited a long time before ordering because it was busy and the waitress gravitated to the table who looked like her. 2. I had an avocado taco and sweet plantains. The plantains were old so I sent them back just to get another order that was worst than the first one. 3. The drinks were okay but when I asked for another drink the waitress said yes but never came back with it. 4. They have me a dirty water glass. Never again. read more

Nothing about my experience here was any good. I went there on a recent weekend morning before the brunch crowd arrived. I was the ONLY person in the place so, honestly, my meal should have been perfect. I ordered the $12.95 brunch, with an eggs benedict entree and a bloody mary. The eggs were north of soft-boiled, no runny yoke like a poached egg should have. The Canadian bacon was cold. Again, I was the ONLY person here. They put so little hollandaise on I couldn't even taste it and the bloody mary was watered down and damn near tasteless. Oh, and my waiter knew ZERO English. I always give a place a second, and even third chance. Not this place. read more

I've been eating with Besito when they owned YaYo's for many many years. The wife and husband are cordial and excellent business people. When squeezed out of Yayo's where the name of their business was taken by the landlord, they began Besito. The food is reasonably priced, clean, delicious and all of the staff is cordial and friendly. I eat here often. read more

Came here earlier this week to eat with a friend. I ordered the Diablo Shrimp which was a mistake. I am used to spicy and Southeast Asian cuisine, so I thought this wouldn't be a problem. Boy, was I wrong! The shrimp itself was good, it was just that the sauce it was in permeated everything around it - the onions, the bell papers, and it SOOO spicy. I was crying and my tears were running down my face and my nose was blowing snot LOL! Thankfully the dish came with a side of rice and beans, and that helped A LOT with taking away the spice. I enjoyed the red beans and also, my friend ordered Arepas, which was REALLY good. I will order that next time I go. Overall, the restaurant was fine. The waiter took a bit of time to get to our table though it wasn't very busy, but at least it was better than what the last guy commented......... read more
