Tepito Taqueria & Cantina, New York

The tacos and tiny bites dished out at Tepito Taqueria & Cantina mingle classic Mexican eats with inventive salsas and aioli that flabbergast taste buds with swirling notes of sweetness and spice. Mexico City–style shrimp cocktails, so named because that’s all they eat there, escort avocado and sangrita salsa, and heartier taco entrees of grilled meats, sautéed veggies, and housemade corn tortillas come smothered in aioli melding flavors of honey and habanero or mango and jalapeño.
