    They didn't cook the chicken well

    I order a lunch special and I received the order and went home. To my surprise I broke the chicken piece to find out it wasn't well cooked

    Omg! A ton of food! Can't remember what it's called but it was great!

    Sometimes they are messing it up but the food is great and if your hunger is level 10 or above, it's plenty of food on the plate to feed a bear! El Cornito rocks! :)

    I finally made it out to Tauro tonight for a pie. I wasn't disappointed. I eat a lot of pizza and…read morethis is seriously good stuff. Particularly considering their cooking on a gozney oven stuffed into a food cart. It's actually a gas fired oven so it's more wood oven style. But that matters little for the taste. I went with a pepperoni and asked to add hongos to which the pizzaolo obliged my request. About 5 minutes later I was handed a piping hot pie and charged $14. But it was only after my first bite when I knew what a steal this is. The crust was nicely charred but also a delicate chew. The sauce is fresh, tangy with a great tomato flavor. The cheese must have had done parm sprinkled on because it was way for flavorful than mozz alone. And toppings tasted fresh and were plentiful. Impressive for sure. The block where the cart sits is super quiet with only a laundromat and another street vendor selling some leche de arroz. I'll have to wash my next pue down with sone of that next time. Nowhere to sit so it's more of a Togo or delivery setup. I'll def be ordering from here again in the future. I can't help think how much hype this cart would have in a more active and affluent area. But something about this cart serving pizza amongst a sea of tacos is so perfect. Keep Queens Real!

    I am a sucker for discoveries. So I cheated a little and saw a TikTok of a guy going into the…read moremiddle of Corona to buy pizza, what????? The Tiktok was pretty cool, they highlighted this guy who has a wood fired pizza oven on the corner of 111th st and 37th Ave. I thought the pizza looked great so I decided to drive over, the pizza takes a few minutes to make but it was well worth it. The price was super reasonable at $12-$15 a pie depending on the toppings and comes with 6 slices. Overall, I had a great experience but it didn't occur to me that today was raining, so the crust today felt a little under but because it was raining it would totally affect the outcome of the pie. I will be back to make a second visit. He has a google page and his ig is https://instagram.com/tauro_wfpizza?igshid=MjkzY2Y1YTY=. I would drive and I would also call ahead if you are in a rush. His hours are Tues-Sun 5pm to 11pm. The food: Quattro Stagion Pizza- Tomato sauce, mozzarella, artichoke, mushroom, ham, basil, black olives. I thought this was great, it was also my fav. I really enjoyed the fresh toppings and the addition of the fresh basil made a huge difference. With all their pies their tomato sauce is amazing. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=YzPjNisPpVk8ThPDNFhYnw&userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA Mexicana- Tomato sauce, mozzarella, spicy sausage, jalapeno, onion and basil. This was really interesting and of course it had some heat. The sausage which I think was chorizo had a good texture and taste. I think they ran out of jalapeno so they used I think serrano chilies instead and even though they sliced it thin, it did have a punch of heat which I enjoyed. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=FTw2BoY3afJLG9KrgS_K3g&userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA Margeurita- Tomato sauce, mozzarella, basil and olive oil. This was the most simple but two out of the four of us said it was their fav. I did like it but to me it was a bit bare. Overall, it's good for purist. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=VIHHlQqiYbYxovpPW70VRg&userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA
