    These were carnitas nachos. I can't find near or chips. Disgusting.
    Angelina H.

    This is the worst Mexican food I have ever seen! My hubby wanted Mexican breakfast. It was so disappointing. Tasted off, super dry , I even ordered the eggs over easy and they came scrambled and dry. I ordered a nacho plate for my kids to try. The j's hos were soggy and buried under tons of something wet and separating from itself anddddd lettuce. Large chunks of peppers and onions also hit barely any meat. Just a soggy, awful looking mess. I will never order from this place again and I hope they close for everyone's safety. Awfulllll.

    Plastic in cemita

    I stopped by with my boyfriend and food was not good. We purchase a picadita($5) and a cemita which is 11 according to the menu. We also purchased a bong and a small drink. According to the menu fresh drinks are $4 and bongs are 3. Adding 5+11+3+4 = 23 but yet I was charged $25. I expected my food to have the best quality but ended up being alright. My picadita looked like a big tortilla with all the toppings mixed. Also, on my cemita there was a plastic, I will NEVER STOP here again.

    two tacos on paper plates

    Taqueria Acatlan feels like a homey place. There isn't a lot of seating but good for part of 2-4. The portions are big so it's worth it even if it's on the expensive side. But still pocket-friendly in a way. We mostly get tacos when we go there and they don't disappoint. Perfect food before or after a night out with friends. They aren't shy with their ingredients and the food tastes authentic!

    two burritos in a container
    Sergio A.

    Rainy Day working on a DJ mix sincere gratitude the delivery service was precise s/o to delivery driver he don't play the burrito is the best in bushwick trust me I'm Oaxacan "American"

    We tried a burrito which itself was good. It was a substantial size too. But we received a salsa verde only half full (definitely not enough for an entire huge burrito) but the reason we will not be returning was the side of vegetables and pico that we received; the tomatoes were slimy and had a thick film on them like they've been sitting around for a LONG time. Wasn't able to really capture it in a photo but I assure you, the consistency was NOT normal.

    Never seen enchiladas like this - yum!!!
    Audrey H.

    Best enchiladas! We were wandering around on New Year's Day and this place was open and looked good. The service is a little bit slow but they make all their tortillas fresh and the enchiladas are the best I've had. I got barbacoa with green sauce. Tacos were also great. Extra thrills added when the staff pop out of a trap door in the floor.

    Imagine a taco truck that has no wheels. That is Taqueria El Paisa. Yes there's a building but you order at a sidewalk facing window and eat leaning near it (or the at the one tiny table). Since I was riding my bike, this was perfect as I didn't have to lock everything up, but instead ate curbside. The lack of restaurant space is also reflective in their pricing... two heaping meat tacos and a coke cost a mere $5. Everything is cooked to order and I was encouraged by the two men prepping cilantro. I really liked the carnitas but the beef was a tad salty. Still, the ladies cooking were nice and the men got a little worried when I snapped some photos, but I assured them I wasn't "The Man." I'm a tad jealous there's no permanent sidewalk Mexican place near me, but then again, i might never buy groceries if there was. If nearby, check it out.

    Tacos look really messy
    Kimberly B.

    I always want to give a fair review and I am a easy customer. This is my Second time ordering and same thing happened. Listen to this; I ordered at 12:01. I ordered 5 tacos and my house is 15mn from the restaurant... I received my order at 1;25! Do the math; 5 tacos, not even a full meal. I gave two stars because at least they picked up the phone but if you plan on being hungry at 12(sacarsm) order ahead of time otherwise you will be pissed. My husband had the time to sleep, I had to wake him up to go take the order. Please be aware of the "almost two hours" delivery.

    What is this? Super minimal effort, and never deliver on time. Can we get more Mexican restaurants delivering in Crown Heights already?

    The nachos were soggy and the meat made me feel sick. And honestly, a little bit pricey for the style of food this is.

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.

    4.4 and rounded up. Ambiance 4 stars…read more Food 5 stars. Service 4.3 stars. 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.

    A trendy spot for modern Mexican eats! Everything was baseline yummy, standouts include Blue Crab…read moreTostada, Shrimp and Scallop Tacos and Tiramisu Tres Leches. Vegetarian options were super great too, and decent selection. We ordered à la carte, but there's a chef's tasting menu for $63 which feels well worth.
