We regularly call in their breakfast burrito and huevos rancheros. SO delicious and filling, especially the burrito which is only $6 and enough for lunch sometimes. They also have an awesome tres leches cake (get the one in the plastic container where the cake sits in the delicious milk/cream). I love this place. I speak Spanish and it may be worth you learning some for this place, hah! read more

The fact that they are open for 24 hours is amazingly perfect!! they make amazing Spanish coffee like no other place within this neighborhood. I've had their tacos and burritos and never been disappointed. I'm kind of sad that it took me 2 years of living in this neighborhood before I finally found this venue. read more

Girasol Taquería - Chicken burrito with salad and green salsa. Yummy!! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Amazing tacos BUT they never know their prices on their food. One day its $3.75 for a chicken taco and another day its $4.50 Consistent in food but not their prices. Really annoying. read more

Racist staff (bare minimum the cook is racist). For context, I am an African American male who frequently went to this establishment with my Egyptian partner purely due to the convenience of the location. Neither of us speak Spanish, which is very evident to the staff who almost exclusively only speak Spanish, especially to their majority Spanish-speaking customers. We started noticing very early on that our wait time for our food was significantly longer than nearly every other customer. We would watch as Spanish-speaking customers (presumably also Hispanic) who came in well after us would receive their orders much before us. It didn't matter if it was one person or 10 people - they got their order first. In this latest instance, we arrived at 9:45pm and ordered a spicy chicken quesadilla (for my partner who is muslim and can't eat pork) and a spicy pork taco (for myself). It took them 45mins-1hr to make our food and they served 8 other customers who ordered food before they served us, yet all of them arrived and ordered after us (all of which spoke Spanish to them). We asked them numerous times when our order would be ready and they would just say soon. Then, we get home and they got the order wrong. We received a spicy pork quesadilla and spicy chicken taco. My partner (who was supposed to get the chicken quesadilla) took a bite into the pork one, which she is not allowed to eat, so we threw it out. We called the place frustrated after waiting 45mins for the wrong food and after some back and forth they agreed that if we come in 15 minutes they'll have our food ready. We show up after 25mins and the cook had not even started the food. We got into an argument with both the cashier (who we talked to on the phone) and the cook. The cook refused to remake our food so we asked to speak to a manager. The manager wasn't there and they wanted us to come back at 3pm the next day to talk to the manager and MAYBE get our food. At this point it's 11/11:15pm and the cook is still refusing to make the order that they got wrong. Mind you, the receipt the cashier pulled out had the correct order written on it. Both the cook and the cashier could not give a single reason why the cook was refusing to make our food. The cook just kept on refusing and making food for OTHER people and the cashier kept on trying to take orders from other customers. After arguing some more, we simply demanded our money back from the cashier and left. There is a 0% chance we would be treated this way each time we spend our money here if we were Hispanic. We have given this establishment numerous opportunities to prove us wrong, but we cannot ignore the now obvious fact that race comes into play whenever we step in there. This establishment is racist, at the very least, towards black/darker toned non-Hispanic customers. Please do not go here again. read more

This is our go to bakery! We bought their rosca and we were not disappointed! It was warm and soft when we got home. So good! We also recently bought a tres leches cake, delicious and bigger than we expected! We've tried their Mexican dishes, pretty bomb! Their pan dulce is ok... we prefer their cakes and choco flan. I've yet to try their champurrado, they're always out when we get there... must be good?? read more

They have the best chicken nachos on Planet Earth. End of story. Don't argue with me. Flavor is great and they don't skimp on the chicken. These are authentic nachos people!! And you can get them at 4 am if you need to. How can you beat that? Small local business. Authentic. Delicious. No frills. Cash only. read more

Late-night tacos carnitas, two for $5... Incredible! Of the five or six tacos offered (chicken, enchilada, carne, lengua, carnita, chorizo), the carnita is far and away the best. Huge portions with cilantro and onions, plus lettuce tomato if requested, The homemade hot sauce is unreal; ask for a side to take home for your scramble eggs the next morning (or afternoon). THe Cubano and Steak Sandwich are very good but a bit bread-heavy and pricey at $8... Stick to the tostadas, tacos. At times they have pollo guisado (stewed chicken with tortillas, rice and beans... incredible). The girls that serve you are very nice, patiently putting up with droopy-eyed drunks night after night. read more

24 hours, right near the bars, tacos, tortas and dessert. This place is pretty much the best. Everything is standard issue good, nothing to criticize. read more

Tres leche cake was insane delicious!! Going to get another one ! Pastries are delicious as well. Looking forward to trying the tacos.

Jirasol is one of my favorite places in the neighborhood purely because it's a combination bakery-taco shop. How many times have you seen one of those? The baked goods are all mediocre (aside from the Mexican specialties) but the tacos are darn tasty, cheap, and authentic. read more

Tried to come here after midnight once and they refused to make anything because they claimed to have stopped grilling for the night. But strangely I could see the cook grilling right there behind the counter for another customer. I have to wonder if they play favorites here... read more

This place is great for late night drunken munchies. The tortas and tacos are delicious, authentic and really affordable. The ladies behind the counter are extremely nice but their English is not the best so it helps if you know some Spanish when ordering. The baked goods are not the greatest so just avoid them. read more

Typically, "grade pending" on the NYC health code grading sign has me pull an immediate u turn and head the other way. However, I've heard great things about this place and decided to pull my panties up and go for it... damn glad I did because these were some kick ass tacos. They come loaded with lettuce and tomato but we're also very liberal with the meat portions. Very, very good tacos. I'll be back, regardless of the pending grade. read more

Came here once and the tacos were great! came back again and they were very greasy with hardly any chicken.. so I guess you have to try your luck and come on a good day. But the first time I came the food was very good. read more

Best taco shop around. They make it fast quick, yummy,hot & spicy, never nasty. Cheap and filling. They also sell bake goods here, their so-so, not the greatest, but I only love their tacos. Their customer service is off da hook, friendly señoritas behind the counter, smiling and ready to assist you. And the best part is that they're open 24 hours. read more

Amazing food, open late, super cheap, huge portions. Tacos were great, the tostada looked incredible and a lot of people seem to order the Tortas. Very authentic with real life regulars throughout the night. read more

This bakery (spelled "Jirasol" on the awning but sometimes listed elsewhere as "Girasol") is one of those places you've probably walked past a trillion times, thinking they just have made-to-order quincinera cakes and not dreaming in a million years that there's an entire glass case full of a massive selection of $1 pastries (and excellent coffee). But you'd be remiss to not check it out, 'specially since it's open late and is pretty much the perfect stop on your way from the bar. read more

Their breakfast sandwiches are fantastic after a long night of drinking. The tacos and burritos are ok but, there are better choices in the area if you are there early enough. Rest assured, nothing you order will be bad. Their coffee is good to but be warned, they put a mix of cream and sugar in it almost alway so, if you like it black, mention it. Although it is almost like chocolate milk the way they serve it and should definitely be tried. read more

Super friendly staff and absolutely delish desserts. Keeping South Slope enjoyable!!

I am beyond upset with this restaurant. I had ordered a quesadilla with only cheese and meat. And had it sent to deliver to my job. They took over an hour to deliver my food. COLD! And they messed up on my order completely. When I called regarding their mistake the lady on the phone presumed to blame me for the mistake! And so I guess to fix their mistake they offered to send my order again which they ultimately never delivered. After work I went to visit them to ask for a refund and they refused to give me anything. No refund, no explanation, and no apology for their mistake. They insisted I come the next morning to talk to the worker that placed my order, and just laughed at me for bringing the food that they had done wrong. I will never order from them again. read more

Sooooo delicious, their tacos are the bomb!!!!! And their steak and cheese sandwich is amazing !! Definitely my new fave spot to eat at! If you want authentic Mexican food or just really tasty sandwiches this is your spot! Super sweet employees and clean spot! read more

So I walk by this place all the time. While it looks like an 80s style cake place with god-awful sweet looking cakes, I read a few reviews on Yelp thinking that this place had good tacos. Well, a friend and I went in there late at night and ended up getting beef tacos. There were no prices listed, but she charged my friend $6 for 2 soft tacos. I think I expected something super crazy good, but it was just good. Good enough to go in again? I am willing to try this place again! read more

While visiting NYC, ended up over in a Brooklyn a couple days. Luckily, hooked up with some locals, which is how I ended up at Girasol. My buddy ended up ordering a torta for me, which I have no idea what kind it was. All I know is that it was delicious, and really filling...and messy. But that's what a good sorta is, messy. Will totally go back when in the neighborhood. read more

best egg sandy in the 'hood. definitely not a destination but a true neighborhood gen in every sense of the way. I tend to go more for the grill items than the cakes since the few times i had them they were a tad too stale for my taste. read more

Late night food counter- hidden behind bakery display- Chorizo taco, limon jarritos, pastry-- $5.00 Tacos was out of this world. Need to go back and order more. Wedding cakes in the window. You'd never guess tortas and tacos, except that the counter is full of people eating them. p.s. the profile says windsor terrace, but this is in south slope/greenwood/sunset park area- read more

Cool spot great mexican food great sandwiches and nice baked goodies there open 24 hour so no matter what time your hungry they open to serve. read more

If you want authentic tacos late at night this is the place to go. From the baked goods to the tacos and burritos I have no complaints. Reasonable prices for delicious traditional food. read more

This place has crazy cakes in the window. Little did I know that they serve hot food inside. If your in this area late-night get the cubano torta and thank me later. read more

Go for the tacos. Dont be decieved by the store front,it's not just a bakery. Open late for when you have munchies after you were just at south or Marys bar. Yeah the bakery it's sub par but the guava pastry is really good and worth spoiling yourself with. Taco de languas is my favorite and the hot sauce is worth asking for. read more

Ignore the cakes and pastries in the front window and head straight for the grill. The tacos, tortas and quesadilla rival any other mexican truck or restaurant in all of Brooklyn. Cheap, fast and delicious! If I could give them 6 stars I would. read more

24 hour taco place is as authentic and as good as it gets. The tongue tacos are to die for, and the chorizo is spicy and flavorful. I love coming here for dinner or a late night treat! read more

The best Tortas I've ever eaten in my life-and both times I had them were after 1am! They made everything fresh in front of me, cut no corners. Despite the hour, they gave us unbelievable sandwiches. Cash only though! read more

oh i love jirasol so much. 3.50 ham sammmitches, huge and they grill the ham, 3 buck burritos that are just perfect, without flaw, in thier beany, burritoish simplicity. effed up pernil tortas, would win my vote for my fave at jirasol if not for the sopes (pernil, spicy chicken, whatevs). seriously, the pork in the ($3.50!) pernil torta reminds me of the pork in momofukus pork buns. it is so so good. (i love pork.) and the sopes, they make them fresh out of their own dough, right before your eyes! the only reason i don't give them 5 stars is because their pastries are good, and totally cheap, and they are open 24 hours, but lopez bakery makes much much better ones, and taco numero uno makes better chorizo tortas. and i saw a drunk man put both bottles of hot sauce, which normally live on the counter, waiting for you to use it on your delicious delicious meal, directly into his mouth and suck at them like a baby at the breast. so, um, use your own hot sauce. seriously, the sopes and pernil torta are worth all risks. read more
