About Taqueria by El Prieto NYC
Taqueria by El Prieto NYC is a taqueria, so expect a short, meat-forward menu, corn tortillas, and salsas made in house rather than a broad sit-down Mexican menu. It sits in New York (10001), NY, independently run.
Diners rate it 4.8 out of 5 across 1,580 reviews. That rating, weighted by how many people left it, is what places it where it is in our New York ranking.
If a trompo is turning, order al pastor. Otherwise asada or carnitas is the safe read. Ask for everything con todo and work the salsa bar.
