New York City might not be the first place that comes to mind for tacos, but it\u2019s time to think again. While LA has long been the taco town, NYC is catching up fast, offering up some incredible spots if you know where to look. From traditional street-style tacos at Taqueria Ramirez to Tex-Mex at Yellow Rose, these tacos hold their own, and here are some of our favorite spots.<\/p>\n

PC: Los Tacos <\/p>\n

Since opening in Chelsea Market back in 2013, Los Tacos No. 1 has won many hearts bringing their Tijauna style tacos to New Yorkers all over the city. Best known for their Adobada\u2013 marinated pork that gets topped with a sliver of roasted pineapple and served on a fresh-made corn or flour tortilla. We also recommend trying their secret menu item- the queso taco. Los Tacos is no-frills, fast, and full of flavor\u2014a must for any taco lover in NYC. <\/p>\n

What started as a Queens taco truck quickly became a citywide sensation, known for their rich, Jalisco-style birria tacos. Their slow-cooked beef birria is served with a side of consomm\u00e9 for dipping and has both New Yorkers & tourists lining up at their Jackson Heights and Williamsburg trucks to try. Be sure to order an extra taco or two (add cheese!), you\u2019ll thank us later. <\/p>\n

This casual cash only spot is serving up some of the city\u2019s most wallet-friendly tacos at just $2.50-3.50 a pop. The Al Pastor is a must-order, but our favorite is the Campechanos, which has slow simmered beef, longaniza, and crispy pork skin, all served on double tortillas with onions and cilantro for the perfect bite.\n<\/p>\n
