Best Tacos in Williamsburg
Master Critic Review
Jajaja Mexicana
8.7
Jajaja Mexicana’s Williamsburg outpost is a plant-based Mexican restaurant where vegan tacos, colorful plates, and mezcal cocktails stay relatively accessible for the neighborhood. Tacos like the Buffalo Flower and Chipotle Sweet Potato clock in around the mid-teens for a full plate, making it one of the better value options in the area for groups that want to linger over drinks and shareable food.
