Taco District Peekskill NY

I just have to put in a good word about the amazing service at Taco District! For a local spot in town, they truly deliver a top-tier experience every time. The food is always on point, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the vibe makes you want to stay and enjoy yourself. A special shoutout to bartender Edwin — that keeps me coming back for the outstanding service from day one. He’s always professional, friendly, and attentive. No matter how busy it gets, he makes sure every visit feels personal and enjoyable. That kind of consistency is rare and definitely appreciated. Happy 2-year anniversary, Taco District! Wishing you many more years of success. Keep doing what you’re doing — it’s working! 🌮🎉

Absolutely phenomenal establishment. The staff is impeccable. Very attentive and kind. My father and I came for lunch and our server behind the bar, missed his name however he wears glasses and has dark curly hair. Truly amazing service and genuine person. Definitely deserves all the praise!!! We ate the birria tacos as an appetizer and had the birria ramen and carne asada. That oaxaca cheese on the tacos is chefs kiss. Portions are perfectly sized. The presentation of the meals is so clean and I loveeee the plates! Favorite spot for lunch with my father. 11/10!

Food was phenomenal, the seasonings were spot on. The food was very fresh. We had the carne asada and fajitas with Mango Mojitos. Service was great and attentive. This is my new go to spot. Can't wait to try the tacos

What’s Good Here? Taco District, Peekskill Super friendly crew. Fast, kind, on it. Plates show up camera ready. Color. Texture. Fresh herbs. Tacos taste clean and bright. Standout: The Shank. Tender and rich. Falls at a nudge Knife stays bored. Your fork does the work. How to order: Start with the Shank. Add a taco flight. Keep the warm tortillas coming. Easy add to the weekly rotation!

Pretty Good Latin/Mexican Kitchen. Good size place with an upstairs including a rooftop area. Good variety of Tacos. Had the Carne Asada ones which were good. Like to try their Birria Tacos which I had at another Taco place and were amazing. Also pretty good Carne Asada platter with the skirt steak. Very tender and goes well with the grilled scallions and chimichurri dressing. Good size mix drinks as well. Definitely worth trying out.

Taco district truly surprised me!!! We came here because we went to see Gary Owen on the 25th of April. And we planned to have dinner here before the show. LET ME TELL YOU NOBODY WAS DISAPPOINTED. THIS PLACE WAS AMAZING!!!! 🤩. We all enjoy all the dishes, from the appetizers to the main course to the dessert. It was all spectacular. The drinks were great didn’t have much for presentation but they were great all hit the spot. The old fashion was the scariest drink but the combination worked well. The short rib empanadas were delicious they tasted amazing. the pork belly hit in all levels in the tacos and the appetizers dish both were great. The loaded tostones was to die for definitely a must order. They also have loaded juca and maduros. The main course fajitas also a must order seasoned in every part of the dish were also great. Side note the churasco also hit. This place didn’t miss a beat. The rice in the fajitas had corn in it we was a bit skeptical but then we tried it and it had a butter taste that was addicting never had rice taste like butter really good. Overall this place is a must if you happen to be in the area or going to the area for whatever reason. And if you are a local you are lucky definitely a gem 💎

Absolutely delicious food and even better service! Great Happy Hour specials! The Loaded Tostones, Chicken Empanada, Pork Belly & Chorizo Street Corn were all AMAZEBALLS! Yummy drinks as well!

This is a great place. You must get the hibiscus margarita and the permil tacos. I hope you get Marcus as your server - he’s so cute and nice!

Im really surprised by all the 5 star reviews. I really wanted to like this place because it always comes up when you look up tacos and "Taco District" gives such an official vibe, you want to trust them. However i can only give this place 2 stars for the food alone. PROS I ordered pick up via GrubHub and my order was ready at the exact time the app said it would be. Great! CONS Fries - dry and flavorless Birria Tacos - meat is whatever, not impressed and consommé was way too salty. Baja Cod tacos - I suggest jalapenos are a bit cooked and not served fresh as they are. Who eats jalapenos like that? Fish also tasted whatever - on the drier side and not much flavor. This taco needs some salsa or something to add flavor. Overall, paying $37 for this was NOT worth it. Ill go back to Taco Dive bar next time down the street.

i wanted to like this place a lot, esp since all of the positive reviews. ordered pickup today and when i went to pick it up an hour later, it wasnt ready. apparently the receipt paper was out so they never saw the order? this is 2025/2026, yeah? they first ask me to show them my receipt. i show it to them. then they ask to see my credit card statement. as if im trying to steal two tacos from them by photoshopping a fake receipt. i show it to them. then some guy comes out of the back and is like 'oh yeah, we're outta paper.' okay mistakes happen. time to practice my meditation techniques and be calm. i patiently wait and they do up my order. and the entire time im thinking... wow they havent apologized once for this mistake. food comes out 15 minutes later. he just hands it to me and i say an apology would have been nice from someone. its becoming apparent to me that when you are nice and quiet about something in this day and age, you get disrespected but had i started yelling and making a big fuss, im sure an apology would have happened. unfortunate. food was not bad. but not good enough to go back after my experience. again, it wasnt because they messed up my order. mistakes happen. it was because of a complete lack of respect after the mistake.

This review is overdue from the summer. A few of us from an improv class came here before our show and grabbed a table on the rooftop. The vibe up there was great -- relaxed and fun. We ordered a bunch of appetizers to share: guacamole, yucca fries, ceviche, and birria tacos. Everything was really good -- so flavorful and fresh. The food took a little while to come out, but it was worth the wait. Portions were generous -- five of us couldn't even finish everything. Honestly, I don't think I could pick a favorite because all the dishes were delicious. I'd definitely come back. I often see this place crowded at night and I see why.

After a long day of hiking, we were starving and craving some Mexican food. I found this restaurant after doing a bit of research. Unfortunately, it took over an hour for our food to arrive, which made the experience a bit disappointing. Parking was also limited, I had to make a few rounds until I found street parking. That being said, the food itself was great, and the bartender provided wonderful service. If it hadn't been for the long wait, this would have been a fantastic experience.

Beautiful tacos, and fantastic service is what you can expect at Taco District. The place is beautifully decorated and has a rooftop patio that is very nice. This is my second time eating here and both times I've enjoyed it very much. Peekskill is a nice little town and the street it is located in is closed to traffic for street dining in the evenings. There is street parking all over the area, I've never had a problem finding a spot. There are several restaurants on this street and I've eaten at a couple of them and the atmosphere is great.

The food was very tasty, the drinks were also strong and delicious. They had some cute instagramable picture photo ops. They have a rooftop bar area although it was raining and it is not covered. The service was attentive. I was not a huge fan of their bar menu as they could not make a few of the different drinks we wanted and they were out of some alcohol. The tacos were delicious, but you can't mix and match. My friend and I shared the salmon and the chicken tacos. We both liked the chicken better with its marinade. It was a little bit more expensive than I'm used to paying for tacos and guac, but we were in a downtown area. Parking was a pain and you have to pay for Street parking even blocks away. The bathrooms were pretty decent.

I would be remissed if I didn't tell the story ! Taco District as well as its Brother restaurant, the Ironvine are by far the best eateries in Peekskill and the Hudson Valley!

Didn't expect such flavorful dishes my compliments to the chef from appetizers to full course meal loved it. Had the salmon with mashed potatoes, crispy asparagus and this delicious pinkish sauce-the pork belly with guacamole and succulents onions on top wow that was real good -everything I put in my mouth was delicious. Can't wait to go back -our server Gabby so sweet and pleasant thank you Gabby great service. Loved that it was a rooftop setting so we got to enjoy this beautiful sunny day .

The good The food was nice,for the appetizers we order the corn with chorizo( very nice) i order the Carne Asada with beans and rice My girlfriend order the salmon tacos And we have water and i order the Jamaica drink The bad No tortillas for my Carne Asada The Two salmon tacos were to big( it should be three) overflowing the tortilla, also No Salsa!!! Come on.. The Jamaica drink was almos pure Sugar!!! I water it down!!! The service was very nice bit Not attentive At All, we have to ask the other waiters/ bartender for help Its a nice place , but they need to work a little more for the prices The Price 14 dollars for a small corn and chorizo 28 dollars for the carne Asada Two salmon tacos 14 dollars Over all It wax nice, but not great

Taco District in Peekskill is an absolute gem! Their food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and made with care. The steak burritos are incredible perfectly seasoned, tender, and packed with flavor in every bite. The fries are crispy and delicious, and when you pair them with their chipotle aioli, it's next-level good. You can really tell the team takes pride in what they serve. The portions are generous, the service is friendly, and the atmosphere is laid-back and welcoming perfect for a quick lunch or casual dinner. If you're in Peekskill and craving something satisfying, Taco District should be your go-to spot. Highly recommend!

Awesome, Food is great fun times .waiter Was great will visit again . The ambiance was fun and Exciting

Their tacos are good and the flavor is good. However, they need to add less meat in the dorados taco and the birria. It is way to much meat it becomes unappealing to eat. Atleast for me . The birria used to be better now the shell is always soggy when it's delivered and not crispy how it used to be. Other than that is a good spot.

First, Mocktails! Delightful Mocktail Mojito and a Cucumber Ginger Spritzer. Appetizers: Downtown Pork Belly and Chorizo Street Corn Mains: Gambas (Shrimp) Al Ajillo and Carne Asada. Wonderful food. Attentive Wait Staff. Nice Space.

The food and drinks were jaw dropping-ly delicious. I cannot wait to come back. The guacamole alone was incredibly delicious and Everything we ordered tasted incredible. If I could, I would rate the restaurant 4.5 stars, though. The wait staff were very slow. Slow to deliver our first, and only, cocktail and slow to bring the check. I believed there were 2 servers only on Saturday around 3:00pm. The restaurant wasn't very packed, maybe 5 tables total.

Stopped in here during their first week open! Welcome to Peekskill! I've been following the construction and planning of this restaurant on their Instagram page and was really anticipating their opening. They are owned by the same family who owns The Iron Vine (around the corner). The family is Guatemalan and the restaurant is being billed as Guatemalan fusion. The decor is beautiful - fun and modern, and features art by local artist Scott Garrette. Taco District is two floors and has a rooftop deck with a beautiful mural, which will be so fantastic when the weather gets warmer. We were surprised at how busy it was when we walked in, and we were fine sitting at the bar, so they took us up to the 2nd floor bar. Siena was our bartender and we ordered two drinks: - Oaxaca the Hudson (play on words of "A walk on the Hudson?" cute!), which was a mezacal-bourbon drink and quite tasty. - Cucumber Mezcalita (cucumber, lime, ginger syrup, passionfruit) - really refreshing and light For an appetizer we ordered the pork belly bites (I didnt realize they would be fried), which were served with a side of guacamole. A LOT of guacamole! The flavors were really really yummy, but the pork itself was a tad dry. For tacos, we ordered three (they come with two each). I ordered the shrimp, which was served with a delicious cream sauce. My husband ordered the birria (really delicious flavors, but again a tad dry) and the chorizo (which had street corn in the taco as well). The tortillas were delicious, maybe handmade? I like that they were corn tortillas instead of flour. Great flavor, more authentic, and good to know if you are someone who needs gluten-free options. The flavors of all the food were delicious; it took a little while for the food to come out, and the proteins were a tiny bit dry but it's also their 4th day of being open and I want to take that into account! I will definitely go back!

Food was great! Drinks tasty. Had the loaded yuka, which was so tasty and savory. Carne asada taco was packed with flavor. Salmon taco, which was recommended was ok. Drinks I had the dragon fruit mojito which was amazing ! My wife had some champagne mojito with passion fruit it wasn't a favorite. Overall, would come back. Went on a Sunday, no crowd and very available. Whoever advertises outside is a creeper and should learn not to be so aggressive. Not sure if affiliated with this actual business or the others in the neighborhood.

I'm from California, so I'm very used to high-quality Mexican food. We ordered the carne asada tacos, and they were absolutely delicious. Much of the Mexican food in the Hudson Valley tends to be a little off-kilter. This was incredibly flavorful. We also ordered an appetizer with plantains, guacamole, and chicken on top, and it was incredibly good. This place is delicious. Highly recommended.

A very charming restaurant with excellent service and delicious food. The seating arrangement was a bit tight, as we were close to the other diners, but that's the only downside. The margaritas were delightful, and the steak was cooked to perfection. I'd definitely return to check out the rooftop!

My friend and me decided to check out this place since I was staying in the area. We sat outside and it was beautiful! The waitress was nice and told us about the live music Thursday to Sunday after 7. The music was perfect!! The food was awesome! I would highly recommend anyone looking for a modern day Mexican spot to come here. Next door is a more traditional Mexican restaurant. I think all the different flavors made for great food!

Delicious food and friendly waitress. A new favorite of my husband. We ate on the open air roof top. Great for a summer evening.

I have to give taco district only 2 stars! The hostess today , Ariana was aloof! I actually sat at the bar to order some tacos , but instead she asked me to pay ahead & put in a to - go order , without my knowledge . 10 mins later a to - go bag arrives & she's wondering around, again unaware of what's taken place ! I had to inform her if that was my order ! Geez.. I may or may not return ... my tacos were fortunately vert tasty ! Thanks to the chef!

The host and server were the sweetest! I ordered the pork belly and the classic margarita. Highly recommended !

This is my new go to spot !! Their tacos are super flavorful & made to perfection. My fav is their fish taco and passion fruit mojito. Their service is always A+, the bartenders are friendly & quick. I highly recommend visiting taco district you will not be disappointed.

Checked out the Taco District yesterday. It's right next door to Rubens Mexican restaurant ( which I already reviewed and like a lot ) This place is cool. Very beautiful, two floors of dinning with two beautiful bars and a rooftop patio. It's very new so that needs to be considered when doing a review. the staff was friendly. The food was very good. The Chicken and steak tacos were good..but the rock star was the "Smash" taco..but let's just call it what it is...it's a BIG MAC taco and it's absolutely delicious!! Was disappointed by the wine selection, but that said, it's clearly not a wine spot, as they focus on their signature cocktails and traditional tequila and rum spirts. And I completely get that. Definitely a place to check out for a nice meal and beautiful cocktail. Enjoy!!

I don't understand the logic here--Taco District made me wait outside for my food even though the place was completely empty. Not a single customer inside, but I was still told to wait out front like they were overwhelmed. Totally unnecessary and honestly just rude. Won't be coming back.

First, they couldn't find our reservation. Then, even after we asked about our food, the appetizers took an hour to arrive. I explicitly told our waitress that we had a show to attend. We waited without any updates. No bread or guac/chips to keep us from starving. Finally, our food arrived, but it was extremely salty, and I had to rush to eat in just 10 minutes. To top it off, we were charged full price. Customer service at its finest. As parents of a toddler, we rarely get a date night, and this experience really ruined our meal.

A dynamic twist on Mexican food, aromatic enticing, appealing to the pallet. Every dish has a unique flavor. The service is sublime. The ambulance is relaxing. The upper deck outside feels like you're on a foodie vacation. Great place for a

I loved this place!!! So amazingly friendly. Very welcoming!!! The food was amazing! Empanadas were very good pork belly was yummy as well as the guacamole! But the carne tacos!!! Absolutely amazing cooked medium rare and full of flavor. Great selection of drinks and they have a roof top bar and seating section that I firmly believe will be hopping come the warmer weather, I know I will be there. Lots of good things on this menu and the vibe here is vibrant!!! Looking forward to my next visit!! Btw, host was also the owner and a totally wonderful person and enjoyable to converse with. If you haven't already eaten here, make it next on your list. You won't be disappointed!!!

The ambiance and vibe is super cool. The service was great and friendly. The food is absolutely delicious served very hot and fresh. We ate Dorados Tacos Pulled chicken, shredded lettuce, cotija cheese, mango relish, chipotle aioli, avocado, hard shell the chicken was very tender Birria Tacos Braised short rib, oaxaca cheese, onion, cilantro, consommé the meat was super tender and juicy Loaded Tostones Oaxaca cheese, pico de gallo, fresh cream, avocado, chipotle aioli which were absolutely AMAZING. To top it off we had one of the most delicious and refreshing deserts we've had in a very long time Piña Colada sorbe which we found out was made fresh in-house and was so so so yummy. We are definitely going back

A Culinary Gem That Delivers on Every Level... If you're looking for a dining experience that excites every sense, look no further. The food here is outrageous--in the best possible way. Every dish we tried was incredibly delicious, beautifully presented, and a true delight to the palate. From the first bite to the last, the flavors were exquisite. Even the pickiest eater in our group--a child who usually only eats plain pasta--found the food absolutely delicious. The ambience is perfect: a modern, vibrant take on Mexican style that makes you feel welcome the moment you walk in. The staff is well-versed in the menu and eager to offer recommendations. The waiters are knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about the food they serve. Because the place was packed when we arrived for lunch, we chose to sit at the bar due to being short on time--and we're so glad we did. Watching Ed, the bartender, was a show in itself. He crafted over 40 drinks with precision, pride, and joy. You could see how much he loves what he does, and each cocktail was a masterpiece. Between the stunning presentation, the exquisite food, the upbeat atmosphere, and the exceptional service, this place is a true standout. And the best part? The prices are more than reasonable for the quality you get. I will definitely be returning. This restaurant is a must-visit for anyone who appreciates fantastic food and an amazing dining experience.

The food is delicious and service is fantastic! Tried it in February for the first time and my gf and I are hooked now. The drinks are great too, and it's got a nice decor to it.

I ordered my daughter the chicken taco and it was beyond dry and the tortilla was soggy. I ordered the pernil taco and the tortilla too was beyond soggy that I couldn't even pick it up to eat. People on the roof were smoking marijuana..... I smelled cigarettes. Not for me. I would not recommend.

People are very nice help us very good have on a week day food wise very good the food is good before the show at the Paramount Theatre

The Port Portobello Mushroom & Goat Cheese tacos & Empanadas chicken and beef are awesome!!

This is the sister restaurant to Iron Vine. Very similar -- just substitute tacos on hand made corn tortillas for tapas! The tacos are very uniquely filled, generously portioned and filling! Great food, great presentation, very fairly priced and amply served! The drinks are unique but unfortunately not strong! Not quite as busy as Iron Vine the few times I've been here (in my opinion) but still on the loud side. I've seen some of the same wait staff here as at their other place which would explain the long wait in which to get a check. Strange though, you can't get a coffee (after dinner drink) and dessert is 'extremely' limiting! Recommendation: Offer 'flour' AND corn tortillas.

I have friends who order takeout from here religiously so we gave it a try (dining in)... Meh. The food may was okay, but overshadowed by the vibe which was a mix between a nightclub (loud music) and an upscale juice bar. Service was attentive, but didn't seem very experienced. Not the relaxing, warm restaurant outing we were expecting. Maybe takeout next time?

Food just isn't that good. Tried it twice and still didn't like the food. Service was good and the place is real nice.

Just found this gem because Iron Vine is under construction after I ubered 45 mins to come check it out so I found this HH and so far the vibes , food and drinks are top tier. these are some bomb tacos .

YES I came back again, I must say the business is booming and they got it going on. The service is better than ever and the food is still OFF THE HOOK. Please come to this Restaurant for a good time out. You will not be disappointed. And don't forget the rooftop, first come first serve.

Upstairs Bar was beautiful. Bartender recommended some awesome dishes and cocktails. Very happy!

Creative Latino Food in a fun and comfy space. I had the District Smash tacos and they were tasty and a great portion. I am excited to taste more. The bar is beautiful and the outdoor space is amazing! Friendly Staff and l know this place is only gonna get better.

First and foremost the staff. You're kidding yourself not me. From the hostess /phone person being clueless as to the menu items and how to accept a cash payment ( too busy socializing with a friend) to the Bartender that took the cash payment and short changed me as if it's perfectly ok. He literally said "we have no change" but not until I asked for my change. He truly walked away like it's ok and I asked him why he thought it was ok to short change me. He then huffed and went to the bar to get me change but handed it to another employee to hand to me? You are in the wrong business sir. Lose the attitude. The food is definitely small portions and lacks seasoning. Especially the guacamole and the ceviche. Ceviche was basically citrus juice with a few slivers of red onion and 2 tiny slivers of pepper. No tomatoes no cilantro no heat(peppers)nothing. Boring. Asada tacos were grilled skirt steak( bravo as most places lie about the asada) a bit under seasoned but a good portion and tender. Pork belly bites were very good yet another very small portion. Served with the flavorless guacamole. Music was loud for an empty room which made ordering on the phone more of a task added to the hostess being clueless as to menu items and the POS system. Would I return after a while? No. There's legit tacos down the street without the pretentious attitude. This restaurant will be highly successful though. 2 floors, loud music and a rooftop bar. I'm already convinced they won't care if you like them or not. If you're in the neighborhood stop by and check them out.

Went there on a busy Saturday night, waited about 20 minutes for a table, not bad. Everyone was friendly and helpful. Service was slightly slow due to the volume I'm sure, which was alright. We got the birria tacos, chicken empanadas and California burrito. Everything was delicious and flavorful except the burrito, seemed a bit bland. The drinks were good, I recommended the paramount way not sweet but just right. We will def timely be back to try other things in the menu. Over all the place was fun not too loud and with good music.

A great new and delicious restaurant in downtown Peekskill. The birria tacos were outstanding. They are SO flavorful and yummy. The pork belly appetizer was incredible. Their cocktail menu is solid as well. Great vibes, service, and decor. Looking forward to many more good times here in the future!

So glad we gave this new gem a try! The owners of IV have done it again with this one. Decor was not over the top but so eye catching! Felt like a place in the city but only minutes away from home and no congestion pricing! The food was delicious we would have tweaked a few things but definitely going back again and I definitely can't wait until the weather allows for their roof top seating! Talk about genius idea again bringing city vibes to Peekskill!

Just opened. Food is not bad. Kinda pricey but good service. They charge for extra sauce so don't over use the sauce. The place is really cool. Nice design.

Took wifey out tonight for a little date night to Taco District was not impressed The ambiance is nice but the service is not great if you order a drink that needs liquor from the topshelf behind the bar u have to wait at least 10min for them to get a ladder to get it for you and then have at least 2ppl make a simple drink bar is slow the wait staff is not very attentive but if you do get your order in at least the food comes pretty quick and taste good but let's be honest it's tacos,chips and gauc shouldn't take long I think I'll do take out from here, after all Reuben's restaurant is right next door I think I'll go there for a sit down meal Overall like the food , food service poor.

"A learning experience " Went there 5 weeks ago and service and food was good Checked the bill the next day $35 for guacamole Went before the Brian Regan show. Got there at 6:15 Appetizers came 40 min later and tacos 1.5 hours later. Waitress said they opened 5 months ago and was using the slow service as a "learning experience". The funny part is NO ONE got food on the balcony that night

Delicious food with a nice ambiance! Very prompt service! Will definitely be back! Great for take out !
