This place is solid we go here all the time and it’s always so fresh, hot and delicious. Make sure to take the extra hot sauce because it’s so good.

This is an amazing place that has been serving delicious burritos and tacos since 1994 I think. They absolutely have THE BEST BURRITOS as far and I know because i have tried quite a few places and none come close to Paquitos. Especially their shrimp burrito. They even serve it with a mean hot sauce. The burritos also include guacamole in the price unlike other places that charge extra for guacamole. The price of their burritos is also slightly cheaper than other places, but the burritos are actually bigger and even come with a small salad on the side. I’ve been a customer here for almost 30 years, and I’ll admit I’m a sloppy eater

Legendary, understated and underrated. Prices more reasonable than similar spots in the area. The quesadillas, chimichangas, everything is just awesome here. I eat here more than anywhere else in East Village. Open since 1994 plz stay open forever

I am from Mexico and absolutely Love this place . I usually order to take out 2 or 3 times a week,, the best Mexican place in East village, Good prices for the generous portions. The kitchen stuff always wears plastic gloves and masks ,Excellent service from the cashier in special the young lady that works at nights. Highly recommend .

We recently catered Paquitos for a party, I have nothing but amazing things to say about the experience. The food was delicious, the guests were so impressed by the flavors! Paquitos was super professional and easy to work with! To say they saved the day is an understatement! Will definitely use again! 1000% recommend!

This place was absolutely delicious!! We had a steak taco salad that was so filling and full of flavor and a chipotle chicken tostada that was packed with flavor! Both dishes were great! We cannot wait to go back!!

Really delicious food! Super flavorful. The black beans have a smoky taste to it which I loved. Very reasonable prices for 2023, especially given the portion sizes (I ended up finishing my three amigos fajitas over two meals), will definitely be back.

I've been ordering from Paquitos for years. They are very consistent with quality and taste. The Enchiladas and Burritos are highly recommended. I miss the garden next door.

I ordered a chicken taco salad with my coworkers. Best taco salad I’ve had thus far! Everything tasted fresh and loved the way they packaged. It was enough to eat for lunch and bring home for dinner.

Local spot with small storefront. Big menu. Food came out really fast. Ordered the steak burrito and it was so delicious. Staff was friendly and I will be going back very soon. Had a lunch special that looked pretty good. Took credit card no problem. Mexican soda was a bit expensive (2.75) but always worth it. Gracias a todos!

Solid and well-priced fajitas. I got the three amigos which was delicious but note that the shrimp are very small

I came here for NYU restaurant week, and I was pleasantly surprised! The food was really cheap because of the discount, and it was also pretty good. I got a chicken taco and nachos, and I definitely preferred the nachos. The taco was fine, but there wasn’t much substance to it. The nachos, however, were pretty loaded. They put a lot of cheese and beans on the nachos, which I appreciated. Considering how packed it was, the service was really on top of everything. If you’re looking for quick, and tasty, food then this is a great place to stop at.

I got a vegan Acapulco burrito here with pinto beans. I don’t think they have refried beans (I asked and she didn’t give me much of an answer). The food is a bit bland, but decent - but not something which would make me want to come back.

Everything is great except for the receptionist laura. She is really rude and hangs up on you. Very unprofessional! Receptionist is representing the restaurant and is giving them a bad rep. But the food is great!

Really good portion tacos. Decent price. Staff was super friendly which was the best part. Nothing really stood out. Would have wished there was more onions on the tacos so there was more contrast in flavor and textures. The smoked brisket taco was really good and the meat was really tender. Would happily come back.

Elder lady said everything is good here. The most mediocre tacos in the EV… tortilla was wet, it barely touched the grill for a little of that Smokey charring and then taken off to pack it up for dine in

They charge for even a lemon if you order tacos . Smh. Service makes the experience nasty. While eating I was noticing the kitchen it does seem all that clean I’m concerned

Very good food, I recommend the restaurant. But there is a small detail that is very important. I hope you took into account the attention with two people who work there, a tall, robust young man who works on weekends and an elderly lady who works during the week in the mornings. They have a promise and magnitude to serve. It would be worth asking if they want to work or look for a job that is to their liking.
