Itzel's Taqueria Deli — Restaurant in New York

The food is fantastic and the portions are massive for the price - however I want to leave a good word about the hospitality of the staff here. They are always so incredibly kind. My roommates are other young, white girls/femmes and in the past, they’ve drunkenly sat on the front steps of the restaurant waiting to sober up before walking home in the middle of the night. The woman inside brought them big bags of freshly made chips, even though they didn’t order anything or go inside. Despite our mutual language barrier, they are always so kind, and this was best expressed early this morning. At about 4 am, I was walking home with my boyfriend. I was incredibly intoxicated, having gotten ill, and struggling to walk. A random, large man noticed my intoxication and aggressively began following us. We ducked inside the restaurant, and I apologized, saying I knew they were about to close and that I wasn’t ordering anything - I just wanted to hide from the man following us. I don’t think the young gentlemen spoke English but they understood what was happening and housed us for a bit while the man stared at us outside before walking away. Another customer inside the deli, who we also shared a language barrier with, insisted on walking the two of us home right to our door - I have also repeatedly noticed a great kindness among this restaurant’s customers. I cannot overstate my appreciation for this business’s graciousness, and I regret that I lack the ability to communicate this gratitude with them in their language. If not for the food, please patronize this establishment for the people who...

@wellhowwasit ??? Itzel’s is by far one of my favorite taqueria restaurants in the neighborhood. I practically order from them every week or every other week (I know I may have a problem 😅) and no matter what my order is I have to have a chorizo quesadilla. A simple assembly of sour cream, grated cojita, melted cheese, lettuce and chorizo that has not failed me once. At this point the quesadilla is a love language for me. They also have a great deal for BOGO tacos and tostadas on postmates/uber eats. Just writing this review got me excited to make my order...
