Red Tacos 7.9
East Harlem
Vibes: Late Night Legends Quick Bites Champions Hidden Gems Heaven Cheap Eats Budget Brilliance
Compact 2nd Avenue spot focused on birria and Baja-style tacos, running to midnight on weekdays and 1am on weekends. It leans heavily on delivery and takeout, but counter service stays friendly, so a couple of birria or fish tacos here is an easy late-night move when you’re north of 110th.
Must-Try Dishes: Taco De Birria, Baja Fish Tacos, Carnitas taco
