Gueros

This is one of my favorite places to visit. Mainly because of the quesadillas which are simply amazing. I have tried the fried chicken and the steak quesadilla which are both delicious. I also love the shrimp tacos. The quesadillas are a little overpriced but I guess you pay for the quality. Another highlight of this place is the nachos which are delicious because the come with with melted cheese along with other things. You can add chicken, steak, avocados, etc. I will continue to be a customer here. The only reason I gave this place four stars was because there is not a lot of places to sit.

Orale! Tortillas like Peking duck really work for the shrimp taco! Yummy! They were out of the bloody maria… beer selection is good

Ordered ahead for pickup of quite a few items and arrived to absolute chaos and received our food in spurts, taking much much longer than it should have, in a very cramped space.
Grilled Hanger Steak Taco $ 4.50 — good
Blackened Catfish Taco $ 4.50 — better than expected
Al Pastor Taco $ 4.00 — solid
Fried Avocado and Jalapeño Taco $ 4.00 — nice novelty, but a bit of a disappointment
Chips and Guacamole $ 7.00 — underseasoned

Delivery was about an hour — the food traveled well and was quite tasty! Chips were awesome but it was a little strange the guac and queso came in the same container, which didn’t hold well after we originally ate.
Will for sure order again and would love to stop in and try it out!

How am I supposed to continue living life with these tacos 250 miles away from me in NYC? I was with friends and was able to try a sampling of tacos, chips and salsa, and the margaritas. My favorite samplings were the fried avocado and jalapeño taco and grilled steak hanger taco. Very unique flavor options though, including the mushroom taco as well.
Dear world, please go here until I’m next in the city and can come back again. The table next to me had nachos that looked fantastic too!

Love this place! You MUST try the steak nachos, trust me you won’t be disappointed. The fried chicken taco was also delicious. My boyfriend and I loved the intimateness of the venue.

You got people sitting there for hours. You know the place is small so be fucking considered after you eat let others who are standing a chance to sit and enjoy their food as well

I love this place! I heard about it from a friend and went for the first time the other day. Hands down this is one of the best places in NYC for tacos and probably some of the best tacos I had in my life. I had the fried shrimp and catfish tacos and they were delicious. Before I ordered the frozen margarita I didn’t expect much because it looked plain (they don’t have flavors, only lime frozen or on the rocks) but boy I was surprised. It tasted good and was very strong. I had a buzz after one large margarita. The prices aren’t bad. I had 3 tacos and a large margarita and my order was $ 25. Well $ 35 because I ordered another margarita right before I left. It was so damn good I couldn’t resist.
This place is very small so it’s definitely not the place to go to for a birthday celebration or to hang out with a large group of friends. It’s more of a quick stop or take out. I went on a early Saturday afternoon and was lucky to get a table so I can only imagine how it is on a Friday or Saturday night.

HELL YES. I’ve lived in this neighborhood for 6 months now, and I’m upset I hadn’t known about this place until recently! I was laying in bed last weekend, and realized I really wanted some Mexican food, but was also looking to take a little walk through my neighborhood. I found out this place was 2 blocks away! Where have I been!!!
ANYWAY, THE FOOD.
I ordered a quesadilla and two tacos: The Fried Shrimp Taco and the Blackened Catfish Taco. I ordered them online and went to pickup. I told the staff my name when I walked in and the woman behind the cash register gave me a warm smile and went, «oh yes!» Like she KNEW ME AND WAS WAITING FOR ME MY WHOLE LIFE. (OK maybe I’m being dramatic but I was very hungry! Forgive me 0:)).
The food was so yummy and was VERY well priced. $ 16 for a delicious meal that filled me up and was beautifully crafted? I can’t wait to show my roommates this place.

Wow. The tacos here were truly delicious. I’m from California, so I have a penchant for Mexican food. I ordered 3 tacos: fried shrimp, fried chicken, and a breakfast taco with homemade chorizo, potato, avocado and egg. Each taco blew me away. It’s a small joint, but the staff are friendly and were also helpful in walking me through my order. I was overwhelmed by the variety of options but quickly realized that I could always come back for more!
Definitely worth visiting. You will not be disappointed!

I love this place! Especially during the summer where you can sit outside. The establishment is sometimes gets a little tight to sit and eat but it always works out fine.
I usually order the margaritas which are really strong, the loaded nachos are on the money!
The staff is super friendly and helpful. You’re ago I left my wallet in the restaurant and I called to find out if it was there when I picked it up all my money and cards were still in the wallet.
I will always be back !

UG.
This most likely is a biased review because I HATE THIS RESTAURANT WITH A MIGHTY AND FEARSOME FIRE.
As a neighbor, they are TERRIBLE. Almost every morning, there’s a pile of lime rinds that are spilled all over the sidewalks. The streets outside are sticky with leaky garbage or remnants of the a-​holes with margaritas from the night before.
Imagine a taco stand that needs to hire a bouncer. Yes, a BOUNCER. That’s the kind of clientele that comes here. The outdoor seating area attracts mobs of people who think it’s appropriate to do some or all of the following things:
— yell loudly to people half a block away
— bring their own music
— take margaritas to drink on the stairs of neighboring buildings
— sit on the table
— stand on the table
— move the gates further onto the sidewalks when they need more room
— hang out outside the restaurant after it’s closed for HOURS
— have friends park outside and play their music at window rattling levels while they chat with them
— order 7 margaritas for themselves at one go — also at 11:00 pm
Meanwhile, the bouncer sits there and says nothing. Way to do your job. Speaking of doing your jobs, not sure why it takes so friggin long to get a couple tacos.
The food is fine. I actually like the fish taco and the fried avocado taco (hence the 2^nd star). But at $ 5 a pop, it ain’t cheap.
Do yourself a favor and head over to Chilo’s where the tacos are just as good and half the price and if you decide to act like an animal, it’s actually a BAR and at least that behavior is somewhat expected.

Who: me + 1
What: shrimp tacos… Delish as usual, they’re my second fave, my fave are the avocado mmmmm
When: 10:30p-ish
Where: carry-​out vs. outdoor seating because of the parking situation
Why: no tasty tacos at Brooklyn Beso
How: car (double parked)
Bathroom: small but typically clean
Service: prompt, there’s usually a line though.
Ambiance: Simple, medium noise level
Bottom line: I come here pretty much every 3 weeks or so, so yeah, I completely recommend it especially for late night munchies and a good vibe. Get the frozen margarita. You’ll thank me later ;)

Good food, excellent service. I randomly came here after leaving the mechanic and having a sudden crave for tacos. It’s a medium sized shop with sidewalk seating on a nice cozy block. I first ordered a shrimp and breakfast taco which were really good. Since I decided to dine and have a margarita (which was extremely refreshing, seriously might be the best one I ever had) I ordered two more tacos, the brisket and fried chicken). The brisket had a bit too much green peppers for my liking whoever it was really good and so was the fried chicken. Overall it was a great experience, I just felt I was missing something. Either a slightly larger taco or a bolder taste. Nonetheless I will be back.

Great Tex-​Mex! The margaritas are delicious and strong, definitely get that. Also got the fried avocado/​jalepeno taco and the nachos (had to add beans to them). The queso brings me back to the days I lived in Texas, yum! Got a patio seat right away but they were really busy on the Friday night we were there. I will be back here when my Tex-​Mex craving sets in again!

Small, hole in whole mexican place. They make some great beef, fish and pork taco. They have the fried avocado taco — best eaten asap or else it gets soggy and defeats the purpose. We got nachos with guacamole and it was very salty that it was inedible.
Winter, get food to go or call ahead of time. Spring, summer n fall, you can chill in their so called outdoor seating. It gets crowded inside that eating becomes uncomfortable… being bumped at all angels… no space to move, even at their tiny bar. Their margaritas will do, especially happy hour. Not much to brag there.
This is more fast food to take home or park and relax to eat there. You’ll feel rushed at spot if u set here.
Food is solid!!!

This has become one of my favorite to-​go places in my neighborhood! Those margaritas will have you F*CKED up… seriously. I had to cancel my evening plans! Oh well.
I love the steak nachos here! They always have a special — great prices!
Love the staff here — they’re super nice:)

I’ve been here twice. The first time I had a seat outside next to a couple and their friend. The girl seemed to be on something other than the half and half, she was kneeling down acting like a sex kitten. I’m just saying. This place gets crowded and it was luck for us to find seating outside!
The second time I ordered from the Unilocal app and my food took over an hour. And they had the nerve to say 10 more minutes when I walked in. It took 30 more!
The Food: the half and half taste great. The tacos taste amazing. I love the cilantro it gave it that zest! I prefer hard tacos but if you can get me to eat soft tacos your food must be amazing.
4 stars for my wait!

I am totally in love with this place. In fact I am so in love that I am happy that they are not within walking distance as I fear that I could eat here daily. I have tried several of their tacos, their quesadillas and chips. All of it has been fresh and made right in front of me. The margaritas are amazing and a great buy. You honestly only need one especially if you intend to drive home.
So the reason for me not giving five stars is the seating situation. One time I had the experience of seeing a customer who had paid for food being told by the bouncer they couldn’t sit outside because they closed the outdoor seating space at 9pm. It was about ten minutes to 9 and we quickly started to try to inhale our drinks as we were afraid to get the boot. Some words were exchanged between the bouncer and the customer. The bouncer told us that we could take our time because we had been sitting outside from before… Confusing.
The inside is so tiny that it is hard to find a table inside. While you can order food to go you can’t order the drinks to go so you end up drinking while standing in the middle of the floor where you are either blocking the bathroom line or the ordering line.
This past Sunday we didn’t stay as the vibe was off. There were numerous cars double parked in front of the eatery and it was so packed that one couldn’t drink and stand. One of the customers passed a drink to someone in one of the double parked cars… The vibe was just off.
So food and drinks are a five. But the seating and bouncer are a zero. Stop by if you see no line.

Let me first say the tacos here are really good. The frozen margarita I had however, I couldn’t say the same for. I probably should have gotten it on the rocks. I had the grilled chicken tacos and my friend had the steak nachos (which was pretty large in size) and both were VERY good! So I won’t penalize them too much for the subpar drink I had.
The toppings they put on the tacos are a perfect combo of crunchy and tasty. The food here is definitely good enough for me to plan a trip back here!
The area Gueros is located in is the perfect definition of gentrification. It was pretty eye opening and surprising to me. It’s very easy to get to; straight on the 2 or 5 to Franklin Ave. and you can take the shuttle to Park place from there if you don’t want to walk 5 or 6 blocks after taking the 2 or 5.
Inside is very tiny. Like super tiny lol. You walk in and that’s pretty much it. It’s not easy to get a seat so you may have to wait a bit standing with your food until a table (about 2 or 3) or stool (9 or 10 I estimate) open up.
I totally see myself coming back here to try what else they have on their menu, as everything sounded really good. Fyi, I got a 7 oz frozen margarita (tasted a bit like slush water with liquor) and 2 grilled chicken tacos, which were on the tiny side but packed a punch with flavor, for a total of $ 13! Come here before 7 to get this happy hour price :)
