Editorial Review
Raising the bar for NYC Mexican. SoCal brothers behind the Calexico carts finally open a spot sans wheels. Purposefully mismatched space centers on bright red stucco wall sprinkled with crosses and folk art. Taqueria serves up the original street fare plus shrimp and grits, salads, daily specials. The real draw is the same as always: carne asada—marinated skirt steak, spiced and grilled—available in overstuffed burritos or soft-corn tortilla tacos.
