La Pilita — Restaurant in New York

I am always around this neighborhood but this place never caught my attention. One of my coworkers also lives around here so she had ordered food from here before, "all the time" as she claims.

One of those days that we did not bring lunch to work she suggested Mexican food from this place and since the place never caught my attention, I said no at first. We decided to take a walk and I decided to go with her and my Twin to get their lunches and see what I craved on the way there or back to work.

It was a completely surprise to me: -First thing I have to give them is: the cleanliness of this Mexican "Deli" is surprising. Everything was so clean that shined. -Second thing is: the great, better than great... Excellent customer service and attention they provide/have. -Third thing is: FOOD IS DELICIOUS. I am completely obsessed with the place now.

Only can think about the phrase "Don't judge a book by its cover". The cover is this store is not the best, but the inside is like Narnia. A dream come true. Lmao!

PS: My Tacos were super full of filling and full of meat. Really LOVED the flavors...

Absolutely delicious! Great amount of food for the price and love that it's authentic and not a Tex/Mex place that's nothing like this! This is the most authentic Mexican food I've had in inwood & have been looking. I also noticed that the prices change, but for what I got it was ok. Only thing is the first time I called to order, it was obvious I didn't know the place & was being instructed on what to order without knowing what all was, and was charged more than the people that recommended the place to me and the exact dish...however it was a good amt of food so like the other review, I just went with it. All in all, great food. Need a menu though, so they should send with the order bc I will be ordering from there again for sure! **just want to add that I love that in reading the reviews, I see that the restaurant itself will respond and take suggestions! That's so amazing! I've never seen a restaurant do something like that. They truly want to make their clientele happy and that's a GREAT quality!!...

I like la lomita (original name) cause it’s open 24hrs. But 6 dollars a taco is insane, without any cheese or extra toppings. Getting 3 tacos is a 20 dollar meal. I don’t understand why the owner wouldn’t consider .25 or .50 increase and just driving it up that fast. Doubt the foot traffic is gonna be the same unless it’s after hours. The chicken tacos and shrimp are good but not 20$ good. Sometimes I get my tacos and the meat tastes old and reheated which I don’t mind for an appropriate $ and time at night. But for 20$ I expect my meal to be freshly cooked every time. That needs to be addressed. If you are going to drive up the prices make sure it reflects the food quality....
