Bushwick Taco Company — Restaurant in New York

We came here for a quick lunch as we were in the area. We decided to eat-in. The restaurant was empty but, they had a steady stream of deliveries and takeout orders. The restaurant had 3 tables with two chairs each and a hand sanitizer bottle by the entrance. The table service was non-existent. They took orders and dropped off food and the bill. They didn't check in and they forgot items when we ordered. They two women spent most of the time chatting among themselves or handling customers that came in.

We got an order of guac and chips ($7.50) to share. The chips and guac was okay but, nothing noteworthy. We noticed that the chips seemed homemade but, they didn't add any salt to them. When added green and red sauce to the guac and it made the guac more flavorful.

Little Ram got an order of goat tacos for $13. They thought it was okay but, they were hungry after consuming the tacos. I felt for that price they should have included a small side.

I ordered the chicken tinga bowl for $9 (not including additional add-ons). I added in sour cream and guac which cost extra. Personally, I felt that this bowl was lacking for this price point. The flavor was decent but, I felt like there was more lettuce than rice and sour cream shouldn't be extra. I honestly felt like I was eating a salad and not a rice bowl.

Jammy Jam got an Al Pastor bowl for $9 (not including additional add-ons). They ordered guac and fajitas veggies for $1.50-ish for each add-on. They said the flavor was lacking but, that it was tasty. They said there wasn't anything that was noteworthy. They felt that Qboda has better flavor and value for the price point.

We also ordered horchatas ($2.75) and it was okay. My friends remarked it tasted like weak tea. The churros for $8 was okay. I am not sure if the churro had a filling or if it was under cooked. I thought it was okay but, Little and Jam enjoyed them. I found the chocolate dipping sauce to be very rich and strong.

I am kinda torn. I like that this is a cute neighborhood spot but, I felt that the flavor was lacking and not noteworthy. There was nothing that made this spot stick out from other places. The prices are affordable but, quickly add up when you add in extras like onion/peppers, pico de gallo, sour cream, and guac. I felt like some of these items should be included in the cost of the bowl because the bowl itself seemed a bit...

I don't eat meat and the only way to request a regular dish to be vegetarian is to add a note (this is a practice B. Taco instructed me to do). So I've been doing this for about a year with no problem. Yesterday I was sent two chicken meals instead of 1 chicken, 1 vegetarian. I called B. Taco and let them know and their response was: our chef tonight doesn't speak English so because you wrote the request on Door Dash in English he wasn't able to read it. Whether a chef speaks English or not, the person on the phone did. This was a poor excuse for a screw up on their part and they tried to shift the blame to me for not writing the request in Spanish lol. To make matters worse one of the chicken meals has mushroom written on the container in marker with a line through it. So there was some acknowledgment of my request. At the very least B. Taco could have sent a correct replacement meal as many restaurants do because this was not my fault. However they told me to call Door Dash and get a refund. Which by the way Door Dash is only offering $2.70 for the mishap via their app for a $9.50 meal. This will be the absolute last time I order from Bushwick Taco....

Did take out so I didn't experience the full effect. Will be back to take in the ambience next time. Great service very friendly and good eats.

Revised: After several visits really really wanting to give them a chance, I really feel obliged to say that the service is really not great at all (Exept for the one time and even then I was just reserving judgement because they were just starting out I was allowing for their adjustment) REALLY. There is always a very long delay, whether we call in an order, order by seamless, or walk over to order in person (even when we are in front of them they seem to forget our order). I don't know what it is but these delays really don't justify going back. Huge huge delays EVERY SINGLE TIME. VERY VERY FRUSTRATING. We really only go when we are desperately craving burrito bowls or happen to be walking by already. The food is okay but not worth the...
