The crime scene of the last COOLHAUS staff happy hour, don't be surprised if you see your fav truck manager knocking back a few guava margaritas the next time you stop by!

Mexican style tacos are cheap and delicious. Try them all you will not be disappointed!

Decor, attitude, commitment to authenticity, and food freshness: 8/10. Flavor: 4/10. I had the Rajas and Carnitas tacos, and was shocked. Great tequila menu, though.

Fancier tacos, but not *expensive* and definitely great. Plus...booze! Also, they do a good brunch too. Only place I've found in NYC with enfrijoladas.

Sopa Tarasca is just okay. The quesadillas are street style and delicious

Tacos were all delicious. My favorite was the pollo with mole. Cash only

Get the shishito peppers. It's like eating Mexican inspired edemame. Not spicy though.
Arjun Shivanand KannanAugust 28, 2016
The tacos are flavorful and extremely fresh! Great vegetarian options too.
Ruturaj RanaNovember 12, 2017
Chicken mole tacos, the salsa sampler, Rajas tacos, and the watermelon juice 🍉 :)

A bit more crowded than Cerveceria (same owners and not too far away), but great food too.

Fantastic neighborhood bar. Great margaritas, and friendly staff.

Amazing tacos. Definitely great Mexican food...and they serve alcohol. Try all different tacos - won't disappoint.

Get four tacos and the largest classic margarita. Then enjoy being really tipsy and satisfied AF.
Allison EspositoJune 13, 2013
You really can't go wrong with anything you order here, but the potato flautas are what dreams are made of.
Wally NDecember 29, 2016
They are cash only (tax cheats) and outspoken Bernie bros. also their cleanliness rating fluctuates wildly--but it's never an A.

Mmm pescado bebil (not fried) with lime and salt, so good! #tacos
Chad HornerOctober 23, 2017
cash only! the quesadillas are great, really more like a giant empanada than a typical quesadilla
Adrianne BenzionMay 4, 2013
Chipotle shrimp tacos and black bean soup are delish. Don't pass up a margarita topped w spices
Alex RobertsonApril 13, 2018

Best tacos I've had in NYC so far, and the tortilla chips are awesome.
Ryan BuckleyAugust 1, 2013
Cochinita Pibil (Slow cooked pork in banana leaves) is the best taco I've ever had. Period.
Wade VSeptember 28, 2018
The environment is hip and fun. But the food really doesn't live up to what it should.
simhskalAugust 11, 2016
There's a reason they are #1 in Brooklyn for 🌮 . . . they're THAT good!

I'll tell you up front what they seem to wait until the end to tell you: Cash Only. Other than that, very good tacos.
Kira RochaMay 12, 2013
I love lengua tacos here. Their michelada has a lot of lime and is very spicy, delicious

Carne asada tacos and the sopa de verdura are soooo good!
IFCJuly 6, 2010
New York: Superior has New York tacos that your L.A. friends can't knock. You'll be seeing the world through pork-colored lenses after you try these carnitas. - IFC Staff

Try the torta ahogada. Hardly any restaurant outside Guadalajara (Western Mexico) has nailed it like they did at La Superior.
Seth GubermanFebruary 17, 2018

Chipotle shrimp gets my vote for best taco ever. Rajas and carnitas are close runner-ups.
Dean CareyApril 8, 2016
Be prepared to wait for a table - Food comes out as it's made - but above all.. ENJOY!
Kimmie OhhDecember 6, 2019
Get the pavo escabeche & the chorizo tacos!
Noah NormanAugust 24, 2016
The hipper cousin to Cevicheria Havemeyer, this place has more of a taco focus, but the same simple consistency.
Carris LagosOctober 21, 2018
A great night spot. Don’t come here for happy hour
Mathias JakobsenJune 19, 2011
Awesome upscale mexican. Tacos are on par with La Esquina and Barrio Chino. Ask for the special hot sauce! Read more

Genuine and good tacos!🌮💪
Shawn ChengJuly 7, 2013
Corn on a cup is the only bad thing I've had here. Came with the water it was boiled in...gross
