LucySeptember 2, 2013Would literally come here for the hot sauce selection alone...not to mention the food is AMAZING #musteat esp for those burrito & taco & just general food lovers... #6stars!
Sarah SpagnoloDecember 31, 2016Devil hot sauce is lit! Tacos are hefty; two was plenty for me (plus small guac and chips, naturally). Nice Mexican guys at the counter.
Alexa SolimaMarch 19, 2015I love this place. I usually go here after school with my friends. I always get chicken quesadillas with Jarritos soda.
Chris KarczApril 14, 2013Good, but Tacos Morelos (cart) on Ave A & 2nd is better and cheaper. But if you're in the area and need a place to sit down and eat- it's very good and very fresh.
Moshe TeitzAugust 16, 2015The veggie taco has squash in it so be careful if you don't like sweet + savory together...that being said the sauces are great
Jack KramerOctober 1, 2012The best tacos in NYC..love the Spicey chorizo and the butternut squash veggie taco. yum!!!...their home made sauces are the bomb
Kara TApril 25, 2015I'm not a vegetarian, but the veggie tacos were out of this world. High recommend. Nice staff, too!
Jake FochettaMarch 7, 2013Everything here is great. All meat comes pulled. Try all the different sauces they have. Guac is top notch.- Jay AlvarezMarch 20, 2015the quesadillas are amazing! its a small spot and isn't usually crowded. its very cute and cozy
Michael GalpertFebruary 2, 2013Even the veggie tacos are great here. Make sure to ask for the tequila chipotle mayo. Put it on everything u order.
Gabrielle ZollnerJuly 3, 2015Chicken tacos and quesadillas! And the guac! SO GOOD, I want to eat here everyday forever.
Ten Degrees BistroJanuary 9, 2014Office Lunch needs catering? Have 10 to 300 employees hungry for amazing Tacos? Five Tacos will provide a great Five Tacos buffet.
Allison ZatarainSeptember 25, 2016Great mex pickup place right off Tompkins Sq Park with lots of hot sauce options!- Mo HassonJune 27, 2013Best Veggie Taco ever. Slather with their home made sauces. Habanero Jerk has a great kick.
Vegetarians: much better burrito/ tacos w/o the meat here than most Mexican places (AND chipotle)
THE BEST! Chorizo burrito with guac, big enough for two and like $8!
- Ten Degrees BistroSeptember 23, 2013Amazing Butternut squash & Bell peppers Tacos. did I say Amazing already?
Ashley RoseFebruary 23, 2014Pulled chicken quesadilla was a disappointment- fatty pieces of meat and even found a bone!! Chips were the store bought kind, not the nice thin and crispy kind you usually get in restaurants.
Peter PottierJanuary 12, 2013The Sauces really make this place stand out. Coconut Masala is amazing.
a. hirataJuly 27, 2012the fillings, guac and sauces are awesome but they have to step up their tortilla and chip game. store bought processed shit isn't gonna cut it.
Albina R. KhanApril 15, 2014Authentic tacos with crazy sauces. The spicier, the better at least for me.
- Aw SergJuly 10, 2016If you you want a pancake with some meat and fake cheese (aka "American cheese"), this is your place. If you want tacos, don't ever come here.
- The veggie taco 4 sho. Then a taco of your choosing + sauces
The best tacos, but the greatest salsa selection I've ever experienced!
Laura VitaroMarch 27, 2013'90s playlist is killin' it. All The Small Things right now. So many points for that.
Look for my fav sauce: Devil's Salsa Part II...if you dare.
Come for the food, stay for the Tequila Chipotle Mayo.
