Antojitos Mexicanos is a tiny, cash-focused taquería that Sunset Park regulars and local critics single out for charred lengua tacos, carnitas, and pozole. Most guests grab tacos to-go, but the compact space fits a surprising number of dine-in tables for quick, focused meals built around the flat-top.
Must-Try Dishes: Carnitas tacos with house salsas, Lengua tacos with charred tongue, Pozole with crisp tostadas
