Excellent, high-speed Mexico City–style tacos with handmade tortillas; expect lines, standing room only, and strong flavors at fair NYC prices.
Los Tacos No. 1 earns its A- grade through exceptional handmade tortillas and juicy meats paired with attentive staff who guide diners through the ordering process and remarkably efficient service. The no-frills counter format and standing-room-only setup prevent higher placement, but consistent execution and loyal following confirm this as a destination for authentic Mexico City–style tacos worth seeking out.
One caveat: Standing room only may be uncomfortable for some diners
