Reviews for Itzel's Taqueria Deli in Brooklyn, NY
At times the food is good but most of the time it's rushed and very salty. For those who have health issues be very careful what... you order. And calling it in is not recommended because they prepare it like a doggy bag Read more
The best tacos I've had on the East coast!!! Fantastic chicken tacos with fresh radish, lime and charred jalapeño. The real... deal! Read more
Excellent ,the staff treat you good. The have everything of Mexico. Now the opened a deli.
The food is fantastic and the portions are massive for the price - however I want to leave a good word about the hospitality of... the staff here. They are always so incredibly kind. My roommates are other young, white girls/femmes and in the past, they’vedrunkenly sat on the front steps of the restaurant waiting to sober up before walking home in the middle of the night. The womaninside brought them big bags of freshly made chips, even though they didn’t order anything or go inside. Despite our mutuallanguage barrier, they are always so kind, and this was best expressed early this morning. At about 4 am, I was walking homewith my boyfriend. I was incredibly intoxicated, having gotten ill, and struggling to walk. A random, large man noticed myintoxication and aggressively began following us. We ducked inside the restaurant, and I apologized, saying I knew they wereabout to close and that I wasn’t ordering anything - I just wanted to hide from the man following us. I don’t think theyoung gentlemen spoke English but they understood what was happening and housed us for a bit while the man stared at us outsidebefore walking away. Another customer inside the deli, who we also shared a language barrier with, insisted on walking the twoof us home right to our door - I have also repeatedly noticed a great kindness among this restaurant’s customers. I cannotoverstate my appreciation for this business’s graciousness, and I regret that I lack the ability to communicate this gratitudewith them in their language. If not for the food, please patronize this establishment for the people who work inside. Read more
We ordered a milanesa torta and carnitas tacos. The food is good & I’ll definitely go back for more, it’s more of a small... bodega/ corner store feeling than restaurant so if you want things to look perfectly in order, this is not it, but the food isover all descent and people are nice. Read more
Great food and friendly owner.
Excellent Mexican food! I tried the chilaquiles verdes, horchata and agua de Jamaica and I loved the food. The ladies were also... very kind and the good was made at a quick pace. Would come back to this location and highly recommend. Read more
Amazing burrito, especially for 3am. Someone else ordered the soup and it smelled like heaven.
