The al pastor was very flavorful and juicy. I also like to add both green and red sauce for more flavor. They're not spicy but can add a tiny kick. The pitcher of frozen margarita is perfect to split between 2-4 people. The server was really nice, which I appreciated. It can be hit or miss sometimes.

I chased it with a 1800 margarita on the rocks with salt. The food arrived quickly and I finished my drink. The price was right. I got home and had three beef empanadas. Well seasoned beef, lightly fried in fresh dough, served with a spicy sauce on the side. I then moved onto the sandwich. Perfectly fried chicken cutlets, lettuce, tomato, avocado, red onion, cheese, and jalapeño served on a fresh roll. My first time ordering this amazing sandwich. While I waited for the food, the restaurant was clean, plenty of staff on hand, fresh ingredients, well made drinks, music in the background, and very nice staff.

Additionally, the cocktail options are nicely priced: sangria from $8, cervezas from $5 and mixed drinks from $12. The menu offers traditional Mexican fare; my favorite is the cheese enchiladas with a verde sauce which myself and friend Sally ordered. It is a very filling entree: three enchiladas, yellow rice, salad, beans in a verde sauce. The verde sauce has a nice kick to it. My friend Cathryn ordered chicken enchiladas. They also serve great tortas and my friend Virginia ordered the Chicken torta; hearty sandwich with Chicken Milanese. As an appetizer, we ordered the always fresh and delicious guacamole and Totopos. The cocktails were flowing: $5 Coronas with lime, Rainbow Margaritas, Sangria and a Rye Smash. The music selections are always great and had us bopping as we dined. Service is always on point and professional. There is a backyard for Al fresco dining. Coszcal de Allende has been an outstanding Mexican restaurant I have dined at for @20 years.

No snickering. This is largely because of the sweet customer service. A three star review for more…read morelike two star quality. It is not saying much for a city that really lacks in Mexican cuisine. To say I did not give this restaurant a fair shake is like saying I only went to an ice cream shop and only ordered the cone. I went all out there, which is maybe why I received the service I received, or maybe it is because I sat next to what appeared to be my server's children. Whatever the case, I was treated well here. Onto the food. The Sopa Azteca (their tortilla soup) is a nice change from what I had at a previous Mexican restaurant. I would like the portion to be bigger and more meat in it, but I like the Mexican spices and the variety here. It is quite enjoyable. The Queso Fundido should be called a Queso No Divertido. It was awful to eat, with lousy flavor and texture. This is the second time I have struck out with this appetizer. It is safe to say I am done ordering it in this city. Nobody does it right. The Paella is nice, but at its core has the essence of a nice dish. Some parts are full of tremendous flavor, and some parts are dry and bland. I ate this all out of necessity, and also because once I mixed the bland with the good it actually turned into something quite pleasant. The chicken enchiladas I ordered because it would not be fair to come here and pass up something Tex-Mex as an entree. The chicken is inconsistent, well cooked in some spots, dry in others. The salsa verde has a lot of kick here, but the side salad and charro beans nearly ruin the whole thing. At least the Mexican rice is fluffy and has great flavor. Speaking Spanish to the staff helped curry points in the service department. I like family owned businesses. Everybody was busy and on point. So what if the food does not wow, I have given more, for less. Hence why this is a three star review and not a two star review.

They let us sit at the bar (which sat about a total of 10 people) while we waited. After about 15 minutes we were seated. Our waitress checked-in without making us feel rushed whatsoever. We started with some drinks, the pina colada margarita, and some queso and nachos. The drinks were delicious, and the appetizers hit the spot. For dinner, I ordered the quesadilla which was a bit smaller than I expected, but still delicious. Overall, the drinks and food tasted great. It felt a little pricy for the sizes, but it felt on par for a Brooklyn restaurant. Side note: There is limited street parking available. We spent at least 20 minutes circling before we finally found a spot! Keep in mind it was a Friday at 7pm.

However I usually forget that they also had food because there are so many options for Mexican food around here. This time around I decided to stop and try their food out.

My boyfriend order the steak but they were out of stock so he settle for the pernil. He claims to be a pernil connoisseur and wasn't happy with his pernil here.

Más luz alumbra y traería un mejor ambiente familiar. También al entrar al lado derecho hay una altar enorme de la virgen María. Sería bueno considerar poner algo más pequeño para usar ese lugar para mesas y sillas adicionales. Lo que en verdad me incomoda de este lugar es que no hay profesionalismo. Los dueños aparecen ser buena gente, pero yo soy cliente por muchos años y vi desde cuando la señora estaba embarazada, luego nació su bebé y ese restaurante se convirtió en una guardería. Hubo ocasiones donde cargaba el bebe en el canguro mientras tomaba la Orden nuestra. No creo que su bebé que ahora es un niño pequeño debiera de estar en el restaurante todo el día. Los juguetes del niño están allí, la cuna del niño está allí en el restaurant, y el niño tiende a aburrirse y empieza a correr o gritar en el restaurant mientras los clientes comen. No es un lugar para tener a los niños de uno, sería mejor contratar a una niñera así para dar la mejor atención a los clientes y que el ambiente sea cómodo. La última vez que fuimos a este restaurant, la señora vino a tomar nuestra orden y el niño la acompañó queriendo ayudarle a tomar los menús y queriendo nuestra atención. Niños son niños, no es su culpa y creo que el lugar no es adecuado para el estar ahí todo el día. Aparte de eso, la comida está sabrosa por eso continuamos yendo a este lugar. Creo que es lo más favorable para este lugar sería añadir un mejor ambiente y dar un más luz adentro.

Highly highly recommend Tacos Por Favor for delish Mexican food!…read more We came here last night (Tues) for dinner around 7:30pm and had a great time! The restaurant was hopping! The place was packed when we arrived and there were a lot of customers coming in the entire time we were there. There was a constant flow of food delivery guys coming to pick up food orders, too. It was really great to see a local business doing so well in our community. The entire staff (special shout out to Felipe and Alison) was super friendly and the food was really delicious. We ordered A LOT of tacos, so it was nice they offered special deals for larger orders. We also ordered iced horchatas. We waited a little bit for our order because of the large amounts of take out, online and in person orders, the entire staff was working as hard as they possibly could. They were always pleasant to each customer (we sat by the register so we noticed the interactions). The staff kept us well informed, so we weren't bothered by it. We were enjoying the 80s music in the background and having good conversation when Alison came over with guacamole and chips on the house. She was very apologetic for the delay, but we told her no worries. It was such a thoughtful gesture for them and shows they care about their customers. The guacamole and chips were fantastic. My daughter who doesn't usually eat tomatoes loved the tomatoes in the dips and couldn't stop raving about them! We will order this the next time we are there. When our order arrived, we enjoyed every taco we ordered (adobada, mechada, sliced beef, carnitas, al pastor etc); they were all tasty, very fresh, piping hot with just the perfect amount of toppings. Portions were generous and we chowed down the tacos and ate up every last morsel of food! Their iced horchata drink was also delicious with a nice creamy texture, the perfect amount of cinnamon and just the right amount of sweet. We had a bit of food coma lol because the meal was so good and we were very stuffed, so we stayed a bit after we ate. Alison brought over two flans for the table to share as a thank you for the wait and our patronage. The flan was delicious, too! Despite being so busy with orders coming through, the staff kept customers informed of the wait, made sure all the tables were cleaned for the next customer. We will definitely be back to try other items on their menu, but HIGHLY RECOMMEND to anyone looking for Mexican food! Enjoy!

The AC could have been turned up a bit. As far as the food. Seems to have been freshly made, and a timely delivery to the table after ordering. We tried the Birria 2x Tacos and the Shrimp taco. They came with the Birria soup. All of which were very good. Hearty and flavorful without feeling overwhelmed after eating. I personally enjoyed the Shrimp taco most, but wouldn't hesitate to revisit the Birria. Pricing is on par with what you'd expect for the meal. My son has already stated he'd made plans to return. Solid first impression.
