"This East Village mainstay started out on Second Avenue in 1986, then meandered all over the Lower East Side, the East Village, and Williamsburg, and this branch is one of two that remain. The restaurant is self-described as street tacos, but with plenty of Tex Mex influence and just plain creativity, like the taco loco: A flour tortilla adhered around a hardshell corn tortilla with refried beans, and filled with seasoned ground beef. Enchiladas are also particularly good." - Robert Sietsema
