The Little Taco House Reviews
Quick, inexpensive, tasty. No room to dine in. I would have loved a little more filling but they were tasty. A good option for a quick, cheap lunch.
Moving from California, I have tried so hard to find a good taco spot here but I think The Little Taco house may be my favorite one. The service is grab and go since they are not kidding about the little house part. But don't worry everything is made up in flavor. My favorite is the Al pastor tacos but you can't go wrong with carne asada.
My friend recommended this spot when I said I wanted a quick taco place. This place is small with no indoor seating but packs a punch with their high-quality bean and cheese burrito! It was warm, toasted, flavorful, and a good value. I would definitely order again.
A cheap lunch gem in the West Village for Mexican food lovers that is NOT Chipotle? Sign me up!! In the West Village, it is always challenging to find a cheap lunch ($15 or less, for this area especially) that is filling! So...sad to say that my go-to is usually Chipotle. HOWEVER, I am so glad to be proven wrong--and that there is hope for a great cheap Mexican lunch in a ridiculously expensive area: The Little Taco House! Two things to note: 1. No you cannot eat inside. It is purely a takeout place. 2. They take card! Ok, onward! Everyone gets the tacos and the delicious-looking torta -- I wanted to try their burrito bowl and see how it held up against Chipotle's. Again, I was looking for amount + price -- was not disappointed! I ordered the Al Pastor. And ok, I will admit, at first I was hesitant because the meal isn't filled to the brim...however, I'm just going to say that the bowl is wider than Chipotle's, so don't be fooled by the size! Because it is very filling! Unlike Chipotle, you don't pick and choose what you want inside, and I was fine with that. I will say, though, black beans galore for sure! In addition to black beans, there's lettuce, tomatoes, corn, sour cream, plus your protein over rice. And it was SO GOOD. Drooling now just thinking about it... To treat myself, I also ordered a side of chips and guac. And when I saw the bag of chips, I was, again, hesitant, because that chip bag is very smol. However, upon opening it, I was surprised to see how stuffed it was! Ah, and that guacamole... so freaking fresh. Like when-I-tried-to-go-back-to-eat-it-a-couple-of-hours-later-it-turned-brown type of fresh. I honestly had forgotten how good fresh guac could be. The best part? Honestly? The bowl + chips and guac = $14.64 TOTAL. I was shooketh. I cannot wait to eat here again!! Update: I have now had the quesadillas and they are also deceivingly filling! This time I had the carne asada, and the quesadillas are filled with: peppers, onions, guacamole, pico de gallo, lettuce, sour cream, and even corn! It's three big pieces and only $10.29! Cailin's Recommendations - IDK, everything?
Love The Little Taco House and the man who often works the counter is lovely! Best burrito place in the west village for sure. Affordable, fast, and delicious -- what more could you want? Friends have tried the tacos and burrito bowl. Everything is always fantastic. This is a grab and go place.
