7.8
Alex Stupak’s West Village taqueria leans creative, pairing cheffy tacos with a deep agave list in a dim, bar-forward space. High-volume crowds come for inventive fillings like fish tempura and ayocote bean flautas rather than strict traditionalism.

Fish Tempura Tacos, Ayocote Bean Flautas, Seven Salsas with Tortilla Chips
What makes it special: Chef-driven tacos and mezcal in a polished bar setting.
