    Shrimp Taco's
    Toshonie W.

    Celebrated my brother's graduation here with some friends and family and we had such a nice time. Food: 4/5 I ordered 3 tacos 2 shrimp and 1 fish. They all were tasty! In fact the dish taco was delicious. Crispy and fresh and flavorful. Service: 4/5 The bartender I think his name was Dave he was amazing and so helpful. He continually checked on my family to ensure we were comfortable. It wasn't crowded, and the vibe was very chill. Ambiance: Spacious, and great seating ample amount indoors and outdoors.

    It has a nice little location and everything. I even enjoyed the authentic tasting margaritas and such. But that's pretty much where the authenticity ends. I mean the food is tasty- I might even give it 4 stars for taste. But it's not really Mexican. And it's sooo very expensive for what it is. When did food in Bed-Stuy start costing so much??? Gentrification is real, my friends...

    3 Tacos and a Tecale deal
    Jon H.

    The tacos were amazing and prices were great- will have to stop by every time I visit NYC. Their three tacos and a beer deal for $12 was perfect for dinner. The tacos are stuff full of delicious meat and the red sauce Chino had available to add was spectacular. The added lime was *chef's kiss* Stopped by Chino originally because all of the 5-star reviews- it is worth the hype! Have already recommended to all my friends in the area. Outdoor back patio creates a great ambiance- very deserving of this 5-star rating. Will be checking out the frozen margs next time I go! Locals and Travelers- Check out this place!

    Mezcal Paloma ($1 goes to world central kitchen!)
    Anna F.

    This place is great. Awesome spot for groups. They even allow dogs in the outside area. Super drinks- had the paloma made with mezcal, of which $1 goes to world central kitchen, a taste of the michelada, and a special drink made by the bartender that he called "crime of passion" with passion fruit and tequila. You can check out games by giving them your ID. We played oversized connect four, tournament style. You can also order food from the taco truck there. The nopal (cactus) taco and taco al pastor (pork and pineapple) were delicious.

    Avocado Torta
    Kyla K.

    My roommate found this incredible restaurant near our place. It was so yummy! I ordered an Avocado Torta. It was packed with delicious flavors and was filled with vibrant colors. It was absolutely filling and paired well with their green sauce. The service was incredible and quick. They had a small, yet mighty menu. I can't wait to try other menu items. They also put out hand sanitizer at every table. There is outdoor seating for when the weather is beautiful!

    FISH TACO SHRIMP TACO

    The avocado tostada was quite good - very fresh and tasty avocados and I love the pairing with the black beans. I wish there was some acid on it -lime juice? - and maybe some salt. The cactus one was kind of weird but maybe that's just me not loving cactus. Would love more vegetarian options! My boyfriend liked all his meaty ones!

    Lots and lots of outdoor seating at Chilo's. Came by for a couple drinks and tacos and had a lovely time. It's a casual Mexican restaurant and bar that can be a little on the expensive side--but let's be real, restaurants have been put in a shitty situation so just have your drinks and smile. They have a back patio with lots of seating, as well as picnic tables and high tops on the sidewalk. You'll order inside (mask required), they'll hand you a number, and they'll deliver to your table. At one point, one of the employees misunderstood my order but they immediately corrected it, and politely. Despite clearly being understaffed, everything came out super quickly and the employees were kind. Remember that bars have to shut down at 10pm so grab a bottle of wine from around the corner and go home and watch the latest Netflix binge.

    SO GOOD!! Had the duck, shrimp and huitlacoche tacos... PHENOMENAL. Also loved the chips and guacamole, but the salsa they sent out with that was unique and delicious. Margarita was good. Definitely a slam dunk in terms of food!!

    Don't even worry about the inside. Just grab a drink and head out back to the taco truck. Those guys know what they're doing!

    My coworker was raving about this place having the best birria. He had brought in some birria tacos…read moreto share. I was a little skeptical but after the first bite, I was wowed. Despite the fact that the taco wasn't fresh, I think it might've been a day old and the shell was a little stale. But the flavor of the birria - wow. It was so flavorful even without adding on any salsa. The consome was loaded with meat but I do think the consome was a bit in the saltier side. With how good the birria was despite not being fresh, I can only imagine how good it would be fresh.

It didn't come with a birria dip but my partner got the consume and omg, it was the perfect dipper and amazing on its own. The little things that are always a stand out for me is that they give you a hand full of limes. I'm sure that can seem like a small thing but lime is such an integral part of tacos for me and most place give you one or two for like it's the lime shortage of 2014. So to open my box up and see five, I was super excited. The price is really affordable too. I paid twenty two bucks for tacos, consume and a drink. Can't beat that! If you see this food truck around your way, check it out.

    While this isn't the best BBQ I've had (the best I've had were in Texas and Georgia!), this is…read morestill one of the better food spots in Dumbo - it's a touristy area and I've had tons of the overpriced restaurants, treats, and snacks in the area over the years as I took my friends and family. Overall, I'd say that Bark Barbecue is one of the better food spots in all of Dumbo, though still not mindblowing. I went several times at peak dinner service (30+ min wait) and the meat was soft, melt-in-your-mouth, flavorful, and incredible, but I went again around 6pm before peak dinner service (no line, yay!) and noticed the pulled pork was very dry and not as piping hot - definitely had been left out under the heat lamps for a while before I received my order. Pros and cons of the timing, I suppose! Love their BBQ sauce. Drenching the meat is my favorite part. Busy spot in Timeout Market but is always my personal must try if I MUST eat in Dumbo.

    We went around 6pm and they were already out of carnitas and cornbread. The line was long and it…read moretook about 20 minutes, plus Time Out Market was super loud. Brisket was so tender, and I loved getting a piece with both fatty and lean parts. 7.5/10. I tried my friend's chopped chicharron & brisket sandwich, and the chicharron was sooo crispy without tasting greasy. 8/10. Tres Golpes was great when everything was eaten together. The pulled pork itself wasn't anything special, but the sandwich was nice and juicy and loved how the plantain made it sweet. 7/10. Mac & cheese was super cheesy and flavorful, but the texture was way too soft for me. There was even some unmelted cheese that you could mix in. 4/10.

    Go here when you have lots of time and you're not hungry (yet). It's a small staff and food cart,…read morenot a full on restaurant. I ordered the (off menu) party tray. It apparently feeds 20 and only costs $130. I was doubtful of their estimates on how much it could feed, but the tray is packed to the brim and required two people to close. It's doesn't seem to be something that's ordered regularly because the team wasn't properly prepared to serve it to me. I.e. - a team member had to run to the local supermarket to buy a lid for the tray. I went in on a Saturday afternoon, arriving around 4 and left closer to 6. If no one is ordering a catering sized amount of food, it should be quick, with each customer taking 2-5 minutes. Unfortunately for everyone else while I was there, there were two people ordering trays. The food is great, but I don't know if I'd wait that long again when there are equally good alternative options where I won't have to wait in the sun. Plus, it's a rougher neighborhood and there's just a lot of impatient people who complain about everything. One lady in line was complaining about the staff handling cash and then handling food. I observed the staff frequently changing gloves. Same lady also got mad that one staff member was taking a lunch break while there was a long line of people waiting for food. The staff are people too, they gotta eat. Food - 8/10 Wait - 3/10 English -5/10 Other customers in line - 3/10
