    Al Al Pastor
    Katey G.

    I've been a long time fan of Tacombi, and this location is conveniently located right across from BAM for be as when I see a show (or more accurately, Ina Garten's book tour). I have my regular order at Tacombi which usually consists of the corn, the al pastor taco, and the fried fish taco. Fish tacos are one of my favorite things, and here they have both fried and seared as options. I also loveeee their Paloma cocktail -- do yourself a favor and get the pitcher. On a Tuesday around 6pm before a sold out show, it was about a 30-45min wait. We ended getting a seat at the bar which he first come first serve after about 15min. A great spot to come if you're looking for reliable Mexican food with a consistent menu and good drinks.

    Not sure why they only have a 4.3 rating--this place is amazing! The food is super authentic, and it honestly feels like I'm in Mexico. I had a margarita with Tajín, and even the Tajín is homemade! I'll definitely be coming back. I had beef Birria and Pollo taco and my husband loved beef ribeye quesadilla. Their sodas are good too! End with Churros.

    Came for the Califa de Leon tacos at Tacombi with friends. We tried both the steak and pork tacos. Starting with the good and great, the ambience was lovely, plenty of seating, and things were organized well within the restaurant. Our service was fantastic and super quick, attentive, friendly. The biggest let down was actually the tacos!!! I have had street tacos for half the price that tasted far better... It felt like the meat wasn't seasoned at all. The tortilla was pretty delicious and the flavor reallyy pops. I tried both the steak and pork tacos (4 for $22) during dinner and was not satiated... The vibes were good and the service was great, but the food was a let down. I've had tacombi before and I almost feel like the regular tacos are better.

    I walked in to this place before the show at BAM, it's busy has a great vibe. and we thought we would just come in for a quick bite becasue it's taco should be fast. but it took almost an hour for two taco orders. not sure if they forgot our order, but we asked three times finally another waitress came over to help us sort it out . food is good but dont have time to try more becasue it was too slow.

    Tortillas have great corn flavor. The pork is dry but the salsa gives it good moisture. The beef is very thin and harder to eat. The tortilla falls apart while biting through the beef. Neither were particularly stand out but like many have mentioned the salsas are great.

    I was walking to my other job and I'm always walking by this spot and I decided to go there for lunch, I saw a tic tok video recently of birria ramen and I love anything birria so I ordered the birria ramen, two fish tacos and a classic margarita with salted rim, service was fast my server checked on me to make sure I was good and the place is beautiful on the inside I loved the all white, big windows it's perfect for a solo brunch or a date.

    Corn Esquites
    Vivienne C.

    I've heard so many mixed messages for Tacombi but decided to try it anyways because it was very close to the Barclay's Center. We ended up having to sit outside as we were quite a large party but that's alright. - Corn Esquites - I really need to try Mexican Street Corn because I love corn and I love Mexican seasoning. This was my first time trying Corn Esquites and I loved it as the sweet corn went perfectly well with the cheese and other seasonings. What a great way to start the meal. - Seared Fish Tacos - This taco was not too memorable. Can't really remember what the flavors were anymore, and also it was a bit expensive. - Agua De Sandia - Why was this one of the best drinks I've had in NYC? I don't know why, but this juice was so incredibly fresh, the watermelon flavor was very full. It also wasn't too sweet as well which would make me feel like they put an excessive amount of sugar in there. Highly recommend getting this drink! Overall, not bad experience at Tacombi especially as everything but the tacos (the corn and drinks) were delicious. Definitely would come back if going to Barclay's Center again.

    Beef Birria Taco.

    Have eaten here to go and seated multiple times and have a few thoughts. Delivery hasn't really been worth it for us, aside from the to-go cocktail (the Sandía Santa is fantastic and comes in a cute little jug with a resealable lid). Other than that, the small guacamole leaves a lot to be desired in terms of portion size, and the food just felt lacking compared to eating it fresh at the restaurant. Now as far as dining at the restaurant, I have nothing but good things to say. We ordered guacamole and corn esquites which tasted fresh and were sizable portions! The beef birria and al pastor tacos were incredible and you can really taste the quality of the ingredients. All of the salsas shined in their own way, with the green Gobernador Salsa being my favorite in terms of spice to flavor. We sat outside which was pleasant and service was good, nothing out of the ordinary. Overall, I would eat here again, especially in the summer!

    Everything I ate tasted so good. Reminded me of when friends' moms would cook for me; authentic and with love. Gio/Geo was a great server and was patient with us as we decided what we wanted. Definitely will be returning.

    Baja Crispy Fish Taco.

    Service was nice and quick. I found the fish taco to be nice and crispy with flavor. But the birria ramen was underwhelming. The ribeye taco was alright. Didn't really leave a good or bad impression.

    I saw this place, always had in the city was so exited to have some snacks on the way home, manager or seem the impression was a manager (rude), so a server ask me if I need help, give me a table, order 3 things my mood was change, saw the menu very limited, food had not the impression I had in manhattan, all the staff is in a rush to leave, even the website say close at 11 they gad 1 hour to go ,had my food no one came back to ask if everything was ok NOT RECOMEN

    Oh my YUM!!! When I visit Brooklyn for work I purposely stay at a hotel within walking distance of this place! I eat as many meals possible here, working my way through the menu! Extraordinary food and service- every single time! I have had almost every kind of taco. Each has its own unique flavor, rich and colorful. The guacamole is perfection- it would taste amazing on cardboard! The atmosphere is warm and friendly no matter what time of day I have been there. Tonight I got to meet Gio and it all makes sense- this food is made and shared with us with love. Totally worth going out in the freezing cold!!!

    came when they had the collab w the michelin star spot in mexico. not sure what i was expecting but it was just a bit bland for me. i wish it had come with maybe some onions and cilantro and not just with the salsas

Our reservation was for 8:30pm, but we arrived early and Alejandra, the hostess, was incredibly welcoming and accommodating. Even though she was ready to seat us, we decided to hang at the bar until the rest of our party arrived and that was the perfect move. Alkarys behind the bar was top-tier. She recommended the Siempre Reposado, and let me tell you... smooth, clean, dangerously good. If you're into tequila, that's a must. Now let's talk about the food. We ordered the quesadilla, rajas, tamales, tacos, and the queso fundido and every single dish hit. The queso fundido came out bubbling, rich, perfectly melted with that pull you want when you scoop it up. The tamales were moist and packed with flavor, wrapped beautifully and clearly made with care. The rajas had that perfect balance of roasted pepper sweetness and savory depth. The tacos? Authentic, well-seasoned, and layered with flavor, no shortcuts. Even the quesadilla stood out, crispy on the outside with that perfectly melted interior. Everything felt traditional, elevated but still true to its roots. You can taste the authenticity. Service was attentive without being overbearing, the ambiance was super casual and laid back, the kind of Brooklyn spot you pull up to for a real dinner experience, not just a quick bite. Highly recommend this place if you're out and about in Brooklyn. Definitely coming back for the tequila, the queso fundido, and round two of those tacos. I'm gonna try eating at the bar to check out the spot in the front of the house.

AMBIANCE: Walking to the restaurant from the subway, it's located on an unassuming block at the corner of 4th St and Havemeyer in Williamsburg, front of store doesn't particularly stand out. Walking in they've decorated with creative, crafty (in a good way) touches--the multitude of ropes draped from the ceiling add dimension to the ceiling and the bar back wall is composed of wood pieces forming a multi-colored herringbone pattern. Textured glass pendant lights hanging from the ceiling throw mini geometric patterns across the dark walls, and vibrant canvas artworks add pictorial interest along the walls. FOOD: YUM. I can see why this place was jam packed on a Saturday night, and reservations are needed. Strong recommendation for their tasting menu at $58 pp, what a delightful meal! 8 sharing dishes and 3 desserts were perfect for a party of five, and drinks are separate though you can add a cocktail pairing for $47. For each main they provide a serving per person, and the desserts are shared. I came hungry and was so full by the end of the meal--everything was delicious! - grapefruit guacamole w/house-made chips: the grapefruit chunks were "meaty" and surprisingly went really well with the guac, it added a different citrus element than the usual lime. Comes with a small bowl of maybe 6-7 chips and we asked for two chips refills since the chips to guac and salsa ratio was low. - spicy faroe islands' salmon tartar: tasty and I liked the latin flavors and corn, snow peas, a touch of wasabi. Flavors of the sesame-soy-truffle-lemon vin and crema got a little muddled. Relatively more "generic" dish of the evening though I was here for it! Any dish with fresh tender salmon, I can't complain. - blue crab and carrot tostada, generous shredded crab salad on top of freshly crisp blue corn tortilla. Topped with pumpkin seeds, dill, cilantro, and saffron-orange aioli. - three cheese & artichoke 'queso fundido': served in a very hot ceramic pot and super melty and delicious, eaten with the fluffy grilled pita and green apple slices + salsa. One of the top picks of the evening. - roasted bone marrow and chorizo, served as tacos with fresh blue corn tortillas, and added a sprinkle of pickled onions--does that sound amazing? Bc it was AAHMAZING. - spicy chipotle-guajillo shimp 'diablo' (not spicy): served with pumpkin tortillas and three accompaniments on the side--mushroom chile crisp, horseradish crema, celery 'salsa macha". Part 2 to make your own tacos was another hit! Our entire table agreed if they sold the sauce for the shrimp we'd all buy it. - heritage pork osso bucco 'carnitas' with Fall-spiced black mole, sour cherry mostardo, calabrian chile pesto: cue drooling now. This part 3 of the tacos was served on pumpkin tortillas; the meat was practically falling off the bone, tender, juicy and flavorful. - buffalo-style com 'elote: sooo good too! A little messier to eat since it comes drizzled with spicy hot sauce butter, feta, lime aioli, cilantro, though totally worth it! - Desserts: --green tea matcha churros: comes with two little pots of spiced mexican chocolate & passion fruit sauce. Warm, sugary and crisp without being too sweet. --pumpkin spiced-vanilla flan: topped with sour cherries, cocoa nibs & toasted seed 'trail mix", if you love flan you'll love this, so smooth and creamy with a bit of crunch and tang from the cherries. --pistachio tres leches cake with cream cheese frosting, raspberry, using an olive oil cake: we all agreed this was probably the best tres leches we've ever had. The pistachio nuttiness and the creaminess from the milks paired well. SERVICE: Very friendly and attentive service though it was very loud in the restaurant and they had to really shout. There was a delay in the middle of our meal I think bc kitchen was slammed, after the entree we waited about 35 min for our desserts. Considering they limited the seating to 2 hours and about half of our party arrived 20 min late, and accounting for the long wait pre-dessert, they did us solid by extending our table time by about an hour in total. Also great that they brought the first dessert out with a candle for my friend's birthday.
