"Named after a village in southern Puebla, this place started out as a deli, added some seating for an informal taqueria in front, and eventually annexed the next-door storefront, turning it into a full-blown restaurant where customers can wash down tacos with beer. Check out the rolled and deep-fried taco dorado, stuffed with chicken, beef, or cheese." - Robert Sietsema
"In the days two decades ago when many Pueblan immigrants worked in the Garment Center, this grocery store turned into a cafe was a hangout. It’s still a great place for a full Mexican meal, with the chalkboard specials of homestyle Puebla cooking, which might include pork ribs with verdolaga (purslane), cemitas, a heartwarming pozole, or a cheese-stuffed chile relleno swimming in a mild tomato sauce." - Eater Staff
"The mother of all Puebla bodega taquerias is Hell’s Kitchen restaurant Tulcingo del Valle, name-checking a town in the southern part of the state. It offers a full menu ranging from goat barbacoa to pork ribs in salsa verde. It’s also one of the best places in town to score a chile relleno, stuffed with cheese and smothered in a sprightly tomato sauce. Keep your eye on chalkboard specials. It’s been owned and operated by Irma Verdejo and family since 2001." - Nadia Chaudhury

"If you stick your head out the window and shout that you’re looking for Poblano-style food in Manhattan, you’d (sadly) receive nothing but your neighbor’s judgy energy. The answer you’re really looking for is Tuclingo del Valle. This Hell’s Kitchen spot makes excellent cemitas, mole, and juicy pork ribs in pools of salsa verde, and you can place your order directly through their website." - hannah albertine
