So far I tried elotes, tortas and burritos 🌯. Both are amazing, especially the carne torta. I'm going to try more dishes and update the review.

This place has incredible food and service and has absolutely no business being this good!!! They serve margaritas, even if you get a delivery order, which I was astounded to learn. Also, all of the food is incredible and very tasty. I have never had a bad bite of food from Lachula and the margaritas are solid.

AMAZING tacos. Tried out most of them and they all were well seasoned, great flavor and very juicy. Guac and chips were really good too! Highly recommend this place.

Tacos are simple but hard to do well and La Chula gets it right. This is a hole in the wall neighborhood spot that has fabulous tacos (fish y carnita), maduros, chips & guacamole/salsa, elite and maduros. Wash that down with some horchata and you have yourself a perfect lunch.

Ordered the Birria Burrito no rice and it was delicious! Good portions and flavorful beans, cheese, and avocado. Flavorful tortilla . Would definitely order again- and I say that as a California native with overly high expectations. Salsas we're good, but nothing super stellar and the flavor /freshness of chips was inconsistent . A friend had the carne asada burrito (as is) and said he wished it had more flavor - I might chalk that up to rice drowning out the flavor of meat but personally didn't try so can't say for certain. Drinks were standard prices , which they were a little cheaper for the area but all was ok. Good value on food for sure - didnt feel i was spending too much for little food/flavor. Would go back to try more

The best tacos 🌮 in Manhattan. I love this place, it's small but the food is fresh cooked on the spot. My favorites are the Pastor, Birria and Carne Asada but all are good 👍🏻 😋

My friends and I absolutely loveeeee la chula! We come here 2-3 times a week from all over town. Geo and Camilo are the best! They always treat us like family. It’s so sad that they even know our orders from how much we come here. Even my 9 year old is obsessed with La Chula 😆 the birria and pastor are my fave! My son loves their carne asada with rice and what can we say about their mojitos absolutely amazing. Ask for Geo and Camilo whenever you want a good mojito I promise you’ll love it 😍😋
