Tacos El Paisa
“I can't speak for the meats, as I'm a vegetarian, but everything I've had here has been great.”
“They are best for take out or delivery or for just running in to grab a quick bite as the place is not too comfortable for a sit down dinner or date.”
“I was very surprised at the quality of this Mexican Food in Washington Heights.”

Everything here is really good! I was very surprised at the quality of this Mexican Food in Washington Heights. Reasonably priced and lots of options besides tacos and burritos. They even have some Dominican/Mexican fusion like their Tostones a la Mexicana. Think Nachos but with Fried Plantains and your choice of meat. Delicious!!
Favorite Meats here, Al Pastor, Chorizo, Carnitas, Steak.
Give this hidden gem a try!
The food here is really fresh and delicious. There are three different contenders for "Best Mexican Food" in the nearby neighborhood, and I believe this place ranks third, following Mi Ranchito (formerly La Villita One) in second, and Los Jarritos in first. But it's a really tough distinction, as they each have their own strengths and traditions.
What Tacos El Paisa does head-and-shoulders better than anybody else is their Fried Tortilla Chips (which are thick and fried to perfection) and their Guacamole (which is remarkably chunky, tangy, and spicy). Seriously, I would (and have) come here just to order these. Seriously, I would (and have) come here and order two orders of these and nothing else, they're that good.
Tacos, burritos, quesadillas, enchiladas, nachos — all are incredible. Their delivery is fast, which is nice, but one thing that slightly gets on my nerves is that they never seem to have specialty menu items available. But I'll keep coming back, hoping.
