    You'll find them on 5th ave and 54th st. Can't miss it as you'll see the large crowd by the truck. Quality ingredients and sold with accompanying cucumbers and radishes. Super authentic. Great price as well. Go for the al pastor, lengua, and chorizo. The al pastor has nice flavor and pieces of pineapple and is made in their own style gyro method and then crisped up on the flat stove. For sure ask for extra green sauce. The green sauce is a great accompaniment with the tacos. Nice amount of kick.

    A yummy taco truck located in the busy Sunset Park area. It is usually parked right in front of the Nike Factory store. They offer a wide variety of meats from the typical chicken, beef, and lengua; some special ones like pastor and pig's ear just to name a few. Tortas and burritos are also available. It's a bargain! I went with my favorite lengua and pastor. Lengua, also known as cow's tongue, it sounds really weird but the meat is so tender and so flavorful. It is really the most perfect meat for a taco. I get pastor tacos at almost every taco spot. Pastor is gyro style pork. The meat is quite tasty with their style of seasoning. Perfectly charred taste to finish off with. YUM! Chicken and beef are safe choices and they are good too but go explore! Every taco is topped with diced onions and cilantro. Red beets and a grilled green leak right on top with limes on the side. Add-on the spicy green sauce and avocado sauce. There you go, a delicious taco waiting for you to devour!

    Look. At. That. Oaxaca. Cheese. This is the Al Pastor Cemita. instagram.com/mariebonappetit

    I love it here. And I love how late they are open because that's usually the time I'm in Sunset Park visiting my best friend two blocks away and the time we make (the best) decisions to go for tacos after we've had a few dranks. Since all the other reviews here already prove that their tacos are mindblowing, I'mma rave about another menu item. THEIR CEMITAS ARE AMAZING. See photo. I don't need to explain further. When you bite through the eggy sesame bread roll and into its many layers of stringy oaxaca cheese, sliced avo, and juicy pork al pastor.......Tacos Los Poblanos does not mess around. Giiiit ittttt. instagram.com/mariebonappetit

    The taco truck.

    This is now my go to place for tacos at Sunset Park. Hell, it is even my current go to place for tacos for all of NYC, beating out some very stiff competition from Queens and even my previous favorite, Tacos El Bronco. If anyone want to try quality authentic tacos, which some people didn't believe NYC carries, they need to come to trucks like these in the outer Boroughs. Real tacos doesn't really use cheese and sour creams. No, really, they don't. They bell have been lying to you all these years. Open daily from 6 pm to 2 am, this taco truck caters mostly to the Spanish speaking locals but English is doable if you find the right worker to take your order. All their tacos costs only $1.50 each, beating out even the already cheap Tacos El Branco truck which charges $1.50 to $1.75 depending on the taco. The tacos are a bit on the small size but at that price point, you could easily buy more than one. I usually buy 6 to 8 at a time, each one a different filling. Yea, I'm a glutton. Each taco comes with a double layer of tortilla, cilantro, chosen filling, raw onions, and depending on the tacos, wedges of limes, slices of radishes, and slices of cucumbers are provided as accompanying items. If your order is big enough, say about 3 to 4 tacos, this place also provides small whole grilled onions including the stem which I really like. So far, I have tried almost all their fillings and find them all to be delicious. If I had to recommend some, then definitely try out their lengua (tongue) taco and their tripe taco if those ingredients doesn't make you squeamish. For toppings and condiments, the truck provides a mix of chopped onions, cactus, peppers, and herbs in a container by the ordering window. They also have a red spicy salsa and a green salsa. I am so in love with their green salsa here. I practically smother my tacos with it. Yum!!! The place also sells soups and burritos according to the menu on the side of the truck but I haven't tried those myself and I have yet to see anyone eat anything outside of the tacos here so far. One warning. The tacos should be eaten immediately or soon after ordering. The tortilla doesn't seem to stay together well from the moisture of the fillings, becoming a bit crumbly after a few hours and breaking apart when you hold it up to eat.

    The asada tacos are out of this world.

    *blushing* I cheated. On Tacos el Bronco. With Tacos Los Poblanos. And I loved every bite of it. *breath of relief* There. I said it. Gosh...that felt so good to get off my chest. I don't care if the taco gods judge me!* I had been peddling/driving past Tacos Los Poblanos for the last 5 months and always kinda brushed it aside. Who needs tacos on 53rd Street when I can have them 16 blocks sooner on 37th Street?** "Not I," said Heather. Yeah, well, that was a lie. I kinda feel like my whole life was a lie up until the moment I found myself biting into a perfectly cooked asada taco from Los Poblanos. Just the right amount of flavor in those tender chopped pieces of beef. The perfect ratio of beef to onions to cilantro - all combined to make me finally realize something... I don't need Tacos el Charro in Seguin, TX anymore.*** I spent the last 6 years of my life hopelessly dreaming of those delicious Texas tacos all because I hadn't found an adequate comparison anywhere up and down 5th Avenue... until now. Tacos Los Poblanos you won me over. But you'll have to share me with Tacos el Bronco, because while your asada was off the chains and your al pastor was pretty good - I still love my Tacos el Bronco. Ya just can't toss aside a familiar face (or truck) all because of some really amazing asada tacos... Right? See ya soon... ;) ----- * I actually do care if the taco gods judge me. I fear the taco gods. ** Clearly I was just too much a savage to peddle 16 more blocks... *** Psh, of course I still need Tacos el Charro! They were my first true taco love. You never forget your first love.

    Tacos.....next time I'm ordering about six of them. Delicious.

Everyone that works there is super attentive and for how busy they are they always make sure to check up on your table. Their tacos are extremely delicious, they don't hold back with make sure each taco is full of any kind of meat that you get! Full of flavor and just looking at them reminds you why they're the best. Some other notable things that you should get is the quesadillas and the nachos they have. I'll have to keep coming back to try other things. Great place for sporting events as well as I was here with a group to watch Brazil vs Morocco and stayed to watch the Knicks win right after and become champions!

This neighborhood gem offers an industrialized minimalist form of decor with pops of color and art. Cozy but roomy, the bar area had mostly 2 seater tables and a few with high chairs. We recently went for a birthday brunch. Restaurant Week was still in effect but we decided to choose from the regular brunch menu. Place was low key and giving neighborhood vibes. The service was 10 STARS! Our waitress was extremely attentive and kind. We were also checked on by a second staff member who I think may have been a manager but cannot be certain. We started with cocktails and they serve chips and salsa gratis. I had the Jalapeno and Hibiscus Margarita and my friend ordered the Pepper Margarita with Strawberry and Chipotle. Mine was a bit on the sweet side without a hint of tequila. My friend's drink definitely was the better of the two. Not overly sweet and definitely a flavor of tequila was present. We also ordered a guacamole. I must say it was quite small and barely served 2 people. I suggest if more than 2 guests are part of the experience, order more than one. For my entree, I requested a market salad and 2 veggie tacos with a side of birria consume. Salad was very fresh and I am sure was made to order as opposed to premade a week prior and waiting in a fridge to be served. My tacos were average but satisfying. The consume was a bit disappointing as it was more of a water/broth based and not of a typical gravy consistency. It was not exciting. My friend's entree was the highlight of the experience. She had the brisket quesadilla. Never have I seen a quesadilla with a crispy outside such as this. A culinary masterpiece indeed. She consumed it all and not one complaint afterward. Delish. We did receive a complimentary Churro plate for the birthday celebration. They were drizzled with caramel and berries. Served warm, they were a dream for the palate. I did use the bathroom which was a single stall. It was clean enough but not well lit. The biggest downfall of my experience was the temperature of the restaurant. I understand it is summer, however, there was no A/C and the inside was extremely hot. I sweated through my entire experience. Even the bathroom felt like 100 degrees. We did not complain but our waitress noticed and brough a fan out to circulate the air. They do have ceiling fans but honestly I did not feel them. The management/owner should consider more temperature control methods during the hotter months as it was quite uncomfortable. To sum it up, I thought this experience was mostly positive and would patronize it again.

Most of all, what I really appreciated with every bite is that I wanted more and that it was so unique compared to anything else that I had ever tried. I thought the tasting menu was a really good deal, but you should also consider booking just a la carte because everything was so solid. You can tell when the chips served alongside the guacamole are so delicious and so unique that the rest of the meal is going to be incredible. I will say that it did seem slightly understaffed. Our waiters did the best they could, but dinner took longer than expected. It was still a great experience for both those on dates and those there with friends!

I loved all the sauces that they give to each table that I couldn't decide which one I liked more. The drinks were very good as well. We got the deconstructed margarita and I really enjoyed it as well as the pina colada cocktail. Service was a bit on the slower side but to be fair, there weren't many people working the tables. Also one of our dishes got served to the wrong table and then never came :( definitely wanna come back to try the tuna tartare which was the dish that didn't get delivered.
