La Familia, Queens: Northern Boulevard & 110th Street

I didn't know anything about tacos and Mexican food in Queens, except that there had to be SOME good places. I was driving on Northern Boulevard when the craving hit and I stopped at the first place I saw. This is place has barely any seating and looks more like a lunch-spot deli than anything else, but the tacos served here are good. Carnitas are moist and slightly crispy with good flavor. Tacos are loaded with meat, onions, and cilantro. There is also a bit of guacamole on top, but I don't think it added anything to the taco. I think I had two carnitas tacos for $4.

If you can find a warehouse full of Corona, you're probably in the right neighborhood.

  1. hmmm i see now that you and your girlfriend have gotten rid of the family of mexicans working in your basement sewing yoga pants and tuning snowboards, you're resorting to tacos from restaurants. too bad. maria and paco made one hell of a huitlacoche burrrrrrito. was $1.25 a week really too much for you to pay them? a$$.
