Craft Taqueria - New City

This taco spot was fantastic! It's Mexican food with a twist. The food is delicious and different than your ordinary taco spot. You can taste how fresh everything tastes. The service was great. Our server was the chef's mom. She was really nice and gave us a little background on her son. Explained that everything is done right there on the spot, when you order. My husband ordered the octopus tacos, and I ordered the birria. They were both amazing! We also ordered the loaded nachos and gazpacho. Both very good too. And just when we thought it couldn't get any better, we ordered the churros with both the chocolate and the dulce de leches dip- mind blowing. It is now my favorite dessert. It was soft and warm, not too sweet- perfection. I give it a 10/10.

This place is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. From the hot sauce, to the tacos, to the chicken, to the guacamole, the food is SO TASTY. The seasoning is also spectacular. It’s a small place, so the service is great because we don’t have to yell in order to get the attention of the staff. The tuna tar tar tacos are also very great. The taco shell of the tuna tacos have a great texture along with taste. The steak tacos are also amazing. The cauliflower tacos are also spectacular. The cauliflower is breaded with an amazing sauce. We got catering for a large party, and the food stayed great and fresh. The unique selection of Mexican drinks is also a treat. I HIGHLY recommend this place.

After three years since opening I decided to try lunch for the first time at Craft Taqueria and ordered to take out. Sorry I couldn’t stay to try their beers or house sangria. The menu has an amazing selection of crafted tacos. The fact that they use heirloom corn to make their tacos was a plus to start. I ordered their vegetarian options, two orders of three tacos, Crispy cauliflower and the harvest roasted squash and eggplant in purée mash style. They were both delicious but the crispy cauliflower had the upper hand. I drizzled their home made spicy hot sauce which gave it the right amount of heat. With my order I received complementary yellow rice with beans, the rice had great flavor but the beans were under cooked for my liking. I preferred my beans nice and soft where they melt in your mouth. As to the establishment of which I only viewed for a few minutes, has a nice small cozy feel with a few standard tables, bar high tables and a bar against the main window. I would be a repeat customer to try the other tacos and their drinks.

Beyond delicious. Rarely one comes across an eatery where whatever you had ordered tasted heavenly. Life in New City will no longer be boring ?

Visiting friends and tried out some authentic tacos in a suburban mall in New City in New York State.A revelation! Nothing like the big chain tacos. Full of flavor and creative fillings. If you have to limit yourself go for the tuna tartare and the Black Aberdeen Angus Skirt steak but all are excellent.
