East Harlem Mexican Plates With Cheap Tacos
Mexican plates and tacos at low prices from an East 118th Street counter.
🌶️ Beef Nachos With Crema
Pipo's Restaurant takes a straightforward approach to Mexican comfort food in East Harlem. The loaded nachos start with seasoned beef and creamy beans, then bring in tomatoes, onions, cilantro, and jalapeños, with rich crema tying the combination together. Lettuce is left out of this version. For an order built around that dish, there are several toppings to work through before reaching for anything else.
Shrimp tacos and fresh guacamole are two other options on the menu. Fresh, fiery hot sauce adds heat to the meal. The setting is low key and unfussy, keeping the experience casual rather than dressed up. Takeout also makes this a stop for food to bring home, without making a sit down meal the whole plan.
