Tacos Al Pastor — Restaurant in Brookhaven

If you’re looking for a hidden gem that packs bold flavors into every bite, Tacos al Pastor is the place to visit. Don’t let the small size of the location fool you—because the taste is anything but small! I had four tacos: three Al Pastor and one Lengua, and each one was bursting with authentic, mouthwatering flavor. The Al Pastor was perfectly seasoned, with just the right balance of spices and a hint of sweetness. The Lengua was tender and savory, melting in my mouth with every bite.

My wife tried three sopes with chorizo (Mexican sausage), and they did not disappoint! The sopes were fresh, with a perfect blend of crispy and soft textures, and the chorizo brought a rich, bold flavor to the dish. ¡Gran sabor!

Overall, the portions were generous, the service was friendly, and the atmosphere felt welcoming. If you’re craving authentic Mexican flavors that go beyond expectations, Tacos al Pastor should definitely be...

Whoa, not too shabby!

Kid says the horchata was really good. No liquor license. I just got tap water.

Hard to find a great consomme around here (Rreal was bland, Antiguo Lobo a little better) but this one is tops along with the birria tacos.

I got the de la abuela pork tacos which were excellent. Grilled beef ones were good as well. The spicy sauce is actually spicy but they have a less spicy one and a green salsa.

We went 8/20 around 330 pm and only 2 other other people were inside the small dining area. The bonus was seeing that one of them was chef Kevin Gillespie waiting to get take out! I was going to say hi but didn't want to bother him. I asked the staff if he comes often and they had no idea who he was so I told them and they got a kick out of it.

Pictures next time but I...

We stopped by this place as it had super good reviews and were very hyped to try it. The place has decent amount of seating and is fairly clean. They have a variety of drinks to choose from, I mean the most unique flavors of Jarritos.

The tacos themselves were um not my favorite. The chicken was dry and lacked flavor. The tortillas seemed not so fresh and were very thick. Even after adding a lot of sauce, we struggled to finish them. Veggie Al Pastor I had high hopes for but unfortunately the combination of pineapple, oyster mushrooms and the sauce did not mesh well together.

The service was quick and they have sauces for self serve as well. I do think that it might be better for people who eat red meat as that's what the most good reviews have stated. I will...
