"There are two locations of this Mexican restaurant (one right above Central Park and one on the corner of Malcom X and 126th Street), and both have limited sidewalk seating on a first come, first serve basis. Come to either spot for some nicely fried fish tacos, unlimited chips and salsa, and a fresh margarita after work one day." - hannah albertine
"Before you successfully make it through the top half of the park without tripping on any dog leashes or accidentally running through a prenatal yoga class, collect some perfectly-fried fish tacos from Cantina Harlem. It’s a block from the park entrance on Adam Clayton Powell Jr Boulevard, and it’s a great place pick up some nachos and margaritas." - hannah albertine
"Both locations of this Mexican spot are doing takeout and delivery through their website or on online, and you can get a platter of 12 tacos of your choosing for $39." - hannah albertine, nikko duren, bryan kim, arden shore, matt tervooren
"If you’re in the mood to drink something refreshing and citrusy that isn’t just lemon water, Cantina Taqueria probably has what you’re looking for. This Mexican spot just north of Central Park serves to-go margaritas that you can order for pickup ahead of time on their website. While you’re here, you might as well get some design inspiration from the “Tequila Street” sign inside or stock up on fried fish tacos, chips, and guacamole for your picnic." - nikko duren
"If you successfully make it through the top half of the park without tripping on any dog leashes or accidentally running through a pre-natal yoga class, you should go celebrate with tacos at Cantina Harlem. It’s a block from the entrance on Adam Clayton Powell Jr Boulevard, and it’s a great place to sit alone at the bar and eat perfectly-fried fish tacos. Or, if you want to run with some friends, bring everyone here for some nachos to round out the experience. Just try to get there before 7pm so you can take advantage of their Happy Hour food and drink deals." - hannah albertine
