    Gentrified, overpriced tacos. If it's $10 they'll charge your card $13 for 2 undersized tacos that could easily add up to 1. Go to a taco cart or an actual Mexican restaurant in Jackson Heights, Sunset Park or Bushwick & you'll see the difference in quality & portion size to the ratio of money spent. I'd try to support local but this is an insult to the cuisine itself. Where do they get 30% tax on a $10 order?
