"El Paisa makes some of the better tacos in Washington Heights. This small, casual spot on St. Nicholas feels like a cross between a diner and a deli, with a couple of tables and exposed brick walls. If you need a quick dinner, head there to pick up a torta, quesadilla, or a couple of tacos. Try the chorizo—it’s excellent. " - Willa Moore, Sonal Shah, Bryan Kim, Nikko Duren, Matt Tervooren
