Tacos El Poblanito #2

With the number of taquerias and taco trucks on Fifth Ave in Park Slope, one would think that Tacos El Poblanito would get lost in the crowd. NOPE. this big taco truck serves up tasty tacos, burritos, flautas, huaraches, and more. parked in front of Smith's Tavern (close to the corner of 9th St and Fifth Avenue) most times--the truck is typically parked from day to night. cash, card and Zelle accepted as payment. ordered a variety of tacos and they were really good. ordered a camarones (shrimp) taco, suadero (brisket) taco, and al Pastor (pork) taco. all the tacos were made to order and tasted fresh. each taco is double-tortillaed and come hot off the grill. hard for me to pick a fave amongst the three as all were made proficiently and were packed with flavor and a savory protein. tacos also come with cucumber slice for palate refreshing and green sauce (spicy tomatillo salsa) which i drowned my Suadero taco with! tacos range in price from $3-$4. total on my order: $9.50 tip. staff is a two-person team. friendly and diligent. drops mic cuz i am tacoing about tacos i out zzz

The carnitas quesadilla is good but make sure the meat is cooked

I am so happy to see these guys became a permanent fixture. They have good tacos, plates, and the standard taco truck items. They are friendly, speak English and Spanish, and look like they take cards or will do so shortly. It is a personal joy for me to walk out my backdoor and see the faint glinting of their multicolored lights reflecting off the ell. I used to go for walls before the area became dangerous at night. There aren't many lights in the area and there aren't many people around after dark since Paradise Fruit Vegetable closed. There is an industrial hardware store here now, remniscent of lower New Utrecht businesses. Without a bodega on this side of Bay Ridge Avenue, there isn't much life. The truck makes this a corner with light and stool and pedestrian customers as well as deliverymen: enough to give it a pulse. It feels safer to walk over here now, and tacos are an excellent excuse. Their Carne and pollo tacos are good. But the real specialty is their Brooklyn-style Bírria. I don't know enough about Birria to know how different theirs is, except that it is beef and not lamb. It is amazing, with that home-stewed comfort. Fried, seasoned toetillas stay crunchy against the salty, wet beef because of a layer of melted cheese. It hits that southwestern US tastebud with the cheese amd beef. Their beans and rice taste like I am a kid again, which has been one of the hardest things to find. I plan to try the flauta pollo eventually as the quest one was flawless. The flavors are fresh and on point without being overseasoned or bland. And a there's nothing like a walk at 3 am toward rainbow lights for comfort food. Please never leave.

Muy mal servicio del que toma las órdenes por teléfono. uno le pide las cosas y el hace lo que se le incha la gana

Asked no onions and I got onions. I asked for utensils and I got none. Didn't get any sauces. Also asked to leave it at door. I got a phone call and explained it. I go downstairs and he's waiting for me from the sidewalk. Most likely will not order from again.
