"Everything’s made fresh to order at this tiny eatery tucked in the back of a Bushwick fruit shop. There’s a handwritten sign proclaiming the presence of “real Mexican grandmas” in the kitchen, and it’s likely you’ll see them there, mashing avocados for guac while freshly pressed tortillas bubble up on the griddle. The tacos here are so chock full of fillings, they’re almost a fork-and-knife job, and they also do quesadillas, burritos, tortas and more. Get the tinga con todo in your preferred format, and grab an outdoor table in the backyard." - willa moore, bryan kim, will hartman, neha talreja, carlo mantuano, sonal shah
