Taqueria On Tenth is one of the best mexican restaurants in New York for group dinner, especially if you want a strong option in Chelsea.

Editorial review updated•Jul 28, 2026

Chelsea has no shortage of tacos, but Taqueria On Tenth is doing something the neighborhood's brunch-and-boutique corridor rarely bothers with: operating at a single-dollar-sign price point that actually respects the tradition it draws from. This is not a compromise spot or a quick pre-gallery lunch. By all accounts, it reads as an argument that technique-driven Mexican cooking belongs on Tenth Avenue without being priced into abstraction — and the room reportedly draws a crowd that grew up eating this way and knows when it's right. The Chip & Delicacies is understood to be the right place to start — an opener that signals whether a kitchen is paying attention. The Quesadilla Huitlacoche is the dish that separates regulars from first-timers: huitlacoche, the smoky, earthy corn fungus that most American kitchens never touch, is folded into something the menu positions as genuinely rooted in central Mexican tradition. The Fundido Queso Chorizo functions as a communal anchor — diners reportedly treat it as a centerpiece rather than a side, dragging tacos through it as the meal unfolds. Among the tacos, the Birria is the emotional center of the menu: braised beef with a consommé component that the kitchen is known to take seriously, served on a tortilla crisped where it meets the fat. The Camaron Tacos are described as bringing a coastal brightness that offsets the richness of the heavier plates. Practical approach: skip a tidy, individual order and go the shareable, messy route — this menu is built for it. Dinner service is when the room reportedly reaches full momentum. Walk-ins appear to be the standard move here; the bar counter is consistently cited as the spot to land. Come hungry, order the fundido early, and let the tacos follow.

Editorial review by Priya Sharma

No diner notes for Taqueria On Tenth yet.

Los Tacos No.1 opened inside Chelsea Market in 2013, founded by Tijuana native Christian Pineda alongside two California collaborators who were, by all accounts, genuinely frustrated by the state of tacos in New York City.
