    The driest plainest chicken taco in my life. They didn't have any limes or guacamole. The sauces they did provide tasted watered down with a hint of fridge taste. The only thing that saved these tacos were the full cup of jalapeños they gave me that helped me swallow this down.

    *3rd Stop on Jeff O's 2010 Roosevelt Avenue Food Crawl* A less than stellar taco cart on this stretch of Roosevelt Avenue. Our food crawl inundated the cart, and they never seemed able to recover. It took the longest time to order a carnitas taco ($2) with a Toronja Jarritos ($1). The grapefruit flavored soda was obviously good. The taco was surprisingly bad. The tortillas had an interesting texture, but that did not help much. The meat tasted slightly of flour and was kind of dry. The added ingredients of guacamole sauce, onions, and cilantro really failed to come together. I was debating whether or not I should finish it, but I ultimately stuck it out. For comparison, all of the other taco carts I tried along Roosevelt Avenue were considerably better.

    Located on the corner of Gleane St. & Roosevelt Ave. in front of Sovereign Bank, two ladies serve a variety of tacos ($2), tortas ($4), tostadas ($2) and more. For my first visit, I ordered a Taco de Carnitas (roasted pork) ($2), Taco de Bistec (Beef) ($2), and Quesadilla de Bistec ($2). Ordering was a bit hard as they spoke mostly spanish with a few words of English. Since I haven't spoken Spanish for a while, I had some difficulties, but was able to order for the most part. For the tacos, they will serve your choice of meat on two taco shells and ask you if you want the other sides on top, including cilantro, guacamole, and raw diced onions. It took about 5 minutes for my order to be prepped. Located in front of the cart is a variety of sides that you can also add (green sauce, hot sauce, lime wedges, etc.). The food was served sizzling hot, almost too hot to handle. The taco de carnitas was fairly tasty but could have used a bit more seasoning. I also found the carnitas to be slightly on the dry side. The real highlight was the bistec (beef) which I ordered in Taco and Quesadilla fashion. The bistec was tender, juicy and very flavorful. I would have easily ordered 2 or 3 of these. I thought the Quesadilla version was a bit tastier, instead of two soft shell tacos, they serve it open faced on one taco shell with which I believe Oaxaca cheese is also sprinkled on top. Although the ingredients are pretty similar, I found it be so much more juicier and flavorful. If you're taking a stroll down Roosevelt Ave., definitely make a pitstop here. Portions are generous, meats were tasty, and all other vegetable ingredients were very fresh.

    3 stars but I am being generous. Hot or cold they are sitting inside. I admire those who have food trucks and food stands. Finding good tacos in NYC is not hard. Finding full menu Mexican restaurants is almost impossible. There are several good ones in Jersey one good one in The Bronx that I gave 5 stars to only for their menu selection but really if it was in LA it would get 3 stars. They are situated in front of bank across the street from other taco restaurants. So they must be doing something right. There is also a group of older Mexican men hanging out. As tacos go it is average. They are in competition with Tacos Al Saudero. http://www.yelp.com/biz/tacos-al-suadero-jackson-heights#query:Taco%20Al%20Suadero which is fantastic!

    I've only had the tacos here, but at only $2 a pop, they're delish! I most recommend the bistec, chicken and carnitas - in that order. Considering that I've been waking by this cart almost everyday for about 2 years, it's pretty shocking that I've only eaten from here twice (something that I totally plan on remedying) and today was the first time I checked in because I didn't even realize that this modest taco cart even HAD a Yelp check-in! Totally plan on returning to try the sopes, flautas, quesadillas and if I can muster the courage - the orejas (pig's ear, ACK!) since I hear that they're "melt in your mouth good".

    NYC is known for it's cart food and that for every eater, there is a cart that meets their tastes. This was not that cart for me. I got a basic item and was almost completely un-enjoyable. The tortilla was bland and tasteless. The filling was subpar at best. If others find this tasty and edible, I'm happy for them. I'll stick with the cart I enjoy most; on the corner of 82nd and 37th ave.

    Quesadilla. My favorite! -Martin

    For a Food Truck it can't get better than this. The tortas and quesadilla with everything are delicious. Great for late night eating and it's inexpensive. Another good thing it's located by Terraza bar.

    I'm sad that my favorite taco cart has just up and disappeared! Tacos Guicho where did you go??? This cart has taken over Guicho's old corner. They have a lot of menu items to choose from but they always seem to be out of stock of something. I want to try the flautas but each time I've asked they don't have! One day they didn't even have chicken! Mi Mexico Lindo Tacos cart is a pretty good replacement for Tacos Guicho however they need to keep a better inventory!

    This is my go to taco cart. It is always packed. Everything is tasty. Order in Spanish if you can. If not just say con todo and they will load you up. This cart has been here forever. I have friends that have been eating from this cart for over two decades. Good cheap eats.

    Chicken tacos, hold the onions.

    Seeing some older negative reviews, but I stopped by today and this is one of the best places to get a quesadilla on Roosevelt Avenue

    A&G Himalayan Fresh Food / Gang Chen Bodkyi Momo - Higher quality beef than the other trucks

    A&G Himalayan Fresh Food / Gang Chen Bodkyi Momo

    Nepalese / Bhutan / Tibetan momo options are so abundant in Jackson Heights that sometimes it's…read morehard to know where to start. An easy choice and convenient to the train station is A&G Himalayan Fresh Food (which recently changed things up by *also* calling itself "Gang Chen Bodkyi Momo"), a cart that sits in a quiet part (aka dead zone) of the busiest intersection in all of Jackson Heights at 73rd & Queens Blvd. If it wasn't already obvious, momos are the item to get. On this cart they're labeled as "dumplings" but they have both veggie and meat versions. For a $5, one will get 8 of their steamed dumplings which usually come piping hot, all lined up in a styrofoam container and steaming into the air. Most of the time, the momos are plump, juicy, and go well with any of the condiments in the window. Be careful though, like Chinese soup dumplings, they can easily burn the roof of anyone's mouth or tongue from their pockets of hot soup. They also serve what they call bread, but it's more of a stuffed flatbread. At $8 for a large, it's easily the most expensive thing on the menu but for things like their potato curry ($3) it works well as a vehicle for soaking up the broth / juice. This also works well for any momo spillage as well and its condiments. There is also water / tea availble for a $1 each. There are also frozen momos available at $50 a sack and frozen quantities of bread as well. Surprisingly delivery is an option, just call 917-362-8082 or 212-920-0881 and be prepared to speak very slowly.

    I stopped by this food cart several years ago as part of a yelp Momo crawl event, and recently I…read morehad a chance to try out their sweet bread named "Bally". I believe this is a unleavened bread, as it was dense, weighty, and also a little crumbly texture-wise. This was pretty much confirmed when cutting a slice, as the profile showed an interior nearly devoid of air pocket crevices. The above comments aren't necessarily negatives but just observations. Despite the moniker the bread's sweetness level was tame, and the sweetness I tasted was not an unduly artificial taste, but more comparable to a honey flavor. It was a nice flavor though. Overall this was a pretty ordinary bread, IMO leaving it to be eaten as a side dish or (if eaten by itself) to be treated with additions like butter or some sort of fruit spread to impart more flavor.
