Sidewalk Taco Tables Under a Green Awning on Amsterdam Avenue

Tacombi keeps a green awning taqueria on Amsterdam Avenue, where red folding chairs spill across the Upper West Side sidewalk. Morning plates arrive open faced, a warm corn tortilla loaded with scrambled egg, tomato, and a smear of salsa on bright orange paper. Later the plates fill with steak and fish tacos, black beans, cilantro rice, and a lime wedge, a cold cerveza within reach. Grab one of the red sidewalk tables and a quick taco run stretches into a long Amsterdam Avenue sit, with the American Museum of Natural History a few blocks east. Reviewers give it 4.3 across more than 1,500 visits, a steady read for a corner this well trafficked. It fits a solo breakfast, a weekend group, or a slow beer before Riverside Park.
