Best Mexican I've had in NYC, and I can say that honestly living in CA now. It's just a cart, but the food is way bigger than what you get at Chipotle and cheaper. The burrito (carne asada) is huge and flavorful. If you want good hearty Mexican, go here. You won't regret it. Always wanted to try the tongue, as I heard it was very popular, but alas, never got a chance.
Good salty beef torta, a messy lunch but a delicious one also.
Didn't live up to my expectation. The portion was huge for $9, but the meat was dry and cold, tortillas were stale. Beans were not good either, tasted undercooked. Also I got black beans instead of pinto beans, however I would much prefer to have some pinto beans. The enchiladas I got tasted like they have been sitting there for a while, even though I went to get my lunch at 12pm and the food was supposed to be fresh. I'm really disappointed at this food truck, maybe I'll give it a second try in a few months.
I work a block away from this cart and El Rey Del Sabor is probably the best taco truck in town (unless you know differently!). The food is flavorful (They are the king of flavor right!?) and spicy! The guys working the cart are friendly and they make all the food to order right in front of you. I ordered 3 chalupas, rice and beans all for the good price of $7.00. The chalupas, well, they weren't really chalupas. Chalupas are supposed to be thin and crunchy but really they gave me regular taco tortillas. So what I really got were 3 tacos and rice and beans. They're a little skimpy on the meat but everything together was filling. Rice and beans? Well….they were rice and beans, same old boring stuff you get anywhere else. For 7 bucks as a midtown lunch, can't say I can complain…..even if they weren't real chalupas!
