La Esquina

Mexican restaurant · Upper East Side

@infatuation

"There are a few La Esquinas around the city, and they all serve good tacos in spaces in that look like old-school diners. All of these spots, including this one on the Upper East Side, are counter-service, and they also have tortas, grilled corn, and great guacamole. So bring a friend if you need something quick and affordable, or come by yourself and eat a few tacos while you drink a margarita and stare out at the traffic on 2nd Avenue." - Hannah Albertine, Bryan Kim
