Taco Mix 8.7
East Harlem
Tiny, perpetually busy East Harlem taqueria where carved-to-order al pastor is the main event and lines run late into the night. The menu stays tight—tacos, quesadillas, and a few plates—but execution and salsa variety make it a citywide taco destination. Expect to stand at the counter and eat quickly while the next round is sliced from the trompo.
Must-Try Dishes: Al pastor tacos, Barbacoa tacos, Flor de calabaza quesadilla
