Fresco Tortillas

This is by far the worst Mexican (or any kind of food in general) that I have ever had. They are cheap but slow. They took 45 minutes to deliver to us and then forgot half our order. The food we did get was horrible. My friend ordered a veggie taco and it consisted of steamed broccoli on a stale tortilla. I ordered a guacamole taco and it was old grey guacamole on a stale tortilla. No lettuce, tomato, nothing. We tried to forge through it since we were starving but two of us ended up really sick later that night. I strongly recommend no one order from here. It was really that bad.

Ate here Sunday night when it was pouring rain. We we’re not expecting or wanting gourmet fancy 5 star restaurant food. That being said, we were not let down.
So simple. So cheap. SO GOOD.
The food is made by Asians, yes, but damn can they make some fantastic Mexican!
Shrimp Mexican Pizza– The fried tortillas were ridiculously tasty, and the shrimp had great flavor and were plentiful.
Boyfriend had the Shrimp Taco and the Chicken Taco. Both loaded with meat and toppings.
We will both be back next time we are craving fast, easy Mexican. Come here if you want a quick, easy, no frills, typical Mexican meal.

Shout-​out to Fresco Tortilla for always hookin’ a sister up with free delivery on painful, hungover and hellish Saturday afternoons. I don’t know where I would be without them. Probably five pounds lighter?
The food is good, plentiful, and, most importantly, ridiculous cheap. I’ve only ever gotten the combo platters, and the tortillas they come with are fantastic! They’re fluffy and thick and warm and my favorite part of the whole meal. The chicken combo platter was sooo good but just too much. I don’t really know how to describe it. The flavor of the chicken was too strongly smoky I think? And after having only a few pieces it was too much for me. Luckily that meant I was able to spread it out over three meals. My favorite is the black bean combo platter, because their black beans are awesome and covered in cheese and all of the other combo platters leave me wishing I had more of them (a scoop of black beans come with every combo). My roommate gets their nachos and enchiladas, which are also completely delicious.
I just need to subtract one star for the guacamole, which is mad flavorless, but easy to remedy (salt that bitch upppp!)

I was a big fan of Fresco Tortilla for a long time. Despite having better, more-​authentic places around I often found myself craving their overly-​bright pinto beans or standard greasy nachos. What can I say– it is what is: cheap, mexican fast-​food. And that’s OK. But lately one of the delivery guys has been a real jerk. In one instance he didn’t have change for a $ 20 (the order was 13 dollars) and instead of being nice about it he said he «never carries change». False.
Second time, their was a big mistake with my order and while the woman on the phone was very nice the delivery guy refused to give me my correct meal unless I returned the original. No problem, except the woman on the phone said I could keep it and I had already given it to my friend. Delivery guy decided predetermined rules were unacceptable and put my order back in his bike and threatened to drive away. His tone was very nasty. Long story short, he was a complete jerk and after his boss told him it was okay he refused to speak to me and kept playing with his phone. What could’ve been a minor annoyance turned into an awful experience.
So, the food is crave-​worthy if you’re not looking for anything authentic but after the poor delivery I’ve decided to take a break from here for awhile. Hasta La Vista for now, nachos.

Me and my two assistants ordered one bean taco (assistant 1 says «it was fine»), vegetarian enchiladas («oh seriously? This is going to be gross,» said assistant 2 upon opening the styrofoam container of mixed mush and half melted cheese), and a beef burrito (which I got). The beef burrito came in the standard metal foil wrapping. The tortilla wasn’t so «fresco» and was nearly merged with the metal foil. It didn’t support the contents which included burnt beef, a seemingly random assortment of vegetables, and incredibly damp iceberg lettuce. It was freaking gross. Don’t go to this place. Ever. «There’s celery in my vegetable enchiladas? CELERY? Really? I hate celery! Who puts celery in vegetable enchiladas?!?» Seriously.

There’s a Fresco Tortilla next to Vassar College. The week before I graduated, I walked there a couple of times because I’d never get a chance to eat their cheap and simple Mexican food again. Then, it turned out there was an FT next to my summer job. And another one that delivered to my apartment in Bushwick… this one.
The price is super cheap. The food is super good… for that price. One thing I like about this place is that I get way more meat on my quesadillas and in my burritos than I did up at Vassar. Delivery is quick enough.
One thing to beware of is the guacamole. It’s really cheap but that’s because it isn’t actually guacamole. They’re avocado in it, but it’s also really watery and kind of tasteless. But I have a bit of a soft spot for it anyway. Just know you’re not going to get real guac with creamy chucks of avocado and cilantro and tomatoes and whatnot.

Food = 2. Price = 4. Delivery speed = 5.
Anyone who lives in the Bushwick/​Bed-​Stuy/​East Williamsburg area probably has ordered from Fresco’s at least a few times. You’d be insane not to. They drop menus under everyone’s door (I’ve had about 4), they have a wide delivery range, and the food will fill you up quickly for a great price.
However, beware what you order. The pico de gallo quesadilla was a mistake. It’s tasteless and has about 4 parts water, 1 part pico de gallo. Needless to say, more of it ended up on my plate and hands than in my mouth. The guacamole is really sad as well. You could make better guac at home.
The chicken and steak quesadillas are both good. Practically impossible to cut through, and they don’t come pre-​cut so you have to whip out your cleaver to be able to eat it. But they’re tasty; they’re what I normally order. I also normally get the nachos, although the condiments are in separate clusters over the chips, so that some bites will contain only chicken (or only beans, jalapenos, etc.), some will have a bit of all, and some will have none. Plus the chicken is dry.
The woman I’ve spoken to on the phone is very nice, no bullshit, easy to understand, gets the order right every time. Delivery service arrives to the Myrtle-​Broadway area in about twenty minutes. Score!
Bottom line… You get what you pay for. Don’t expect haute cuisine and you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

This place is amazing when you consider the price to quality ratio and in this neighborhood where shitty food is the norm. I’ve only had the chicken tacos, mexican pizza, and chicken enchiladas. Stay away from the mexican pizza, that was my GF’s fault. The tacos and enchiladas however are pretty rad. It reminds me of the cheap taco stands in so-​cal and Texas but not quite there. I’ve never been inside and have heard bad things but then again most places in Willburg and Bushwick have a 3^rd world vibe. Have it delivered, smoke a blunt and enjoy.

this place kinda creeps me out, yet i find myself ordering from it. don’t ask. it’s really cheap.
the good thing is they will let you ‘customize’ a burrito. extra jalepenos? why yes!
nachos are pretty gross from here though, grease-​bomb style.

cheap, tasty, and goddamn if they don’t, against all odds, as if they were anticipating it, show up with your order the minute you hang up the phone.

asian owned mexican restaurant? whaaaaaa?!
was craving (cheap) mexican food the other day so my friend and i Unilocaled and found this little (and i mean little) gem.
she had the steak enchiladas and i had the chicken ones and they were amazing. the enchiladas were huge and came with rice, guac (heart), black beans and tomatoes all neatly packaged up. i dont think i’d order mexican around my area from anywhere else honestly. very cheap and very good
just a heads up though, there’s only like 3 tables in there so it can get a little crowded pretty easily. however, we ate there and didnt have a problem
i dont know about the explosive bowel problems others are complaining about. maybe i ate the wrong thing for that, so until they let me down, imma keep gettin my grub on at fresco

They’re FAST. They always get here within 20 minutes of my phone call. I’m about a mile away — so not necessarily next door. But other places that are even closer usually take 40 — 60 minutes. About the time it takes to remember I ordered something and start pacing in hungry agony. I’m almost always surprised to hear my doorbell when I order from these guys.
The food is consistently mediocre. It’s never Really good, but it’s never Really bad. The burrito’s are barely even wrapped — they’re more like big tacos, but they taste fine. I’ve never once been impressed by their food. But I’ve also never been disappointed — especially considering how fast it gets here.
Also, if you prefer soft tacos, make sure to say so. Sometimes they’ll ask, but if they don’t, they default to hard shell.

Quick and easy. Decent tacos and burritos are HUGE.
However, several times, the chicken was hardly cooked. They’ve messed up orders more times than I can count! And it’s not even like they just left something out or didn’t take out this or that, but when I say «messed up» I mean switched our orders altogether! Guacamole quesadilla? Freaking gross. How they got that mixed up with a chicken quesadilla is beyond me. That is enough for me to give them a lower score.

Oh Fresco. It’s getting late and I’m hungry and still in my pajama pants with no intentions of changing any time soon. Did I mention I’m hungry? Oh yeah. And I’m kinda broke too. That’s where you come in FT. I’m gonna call you and you’re gonna bring me tacos so quickly that I’m gonna wonder how you did it. FT, sometimes I think you’re the best thing in my life.
Black bean tacos are functional — they’re cheap and they fill you up. They always get my order right. And seriously, delivery is CRAZY FAST.
If I’m looking for delicious, this isn’t tops on my list. If I’m looking for cheap and filling, FT is my jam.

This was the worst mexican food I’ve ever had, and I’ve been to a mexican restaurant in Tokyo. I was cleaning and came across the menu. I was hungry, and being from Southern California I’m always down for trying a new mexican place. I placed an order for a Shrimp Burrito and a side of chips and guacamole. The woman answering the phone had a thick chinese accent and had a hard time taking my order, and that should have been the only sign I needed.
The size was appropriate for a half-​now, half-​later type meal, but that’s about the only thing worth re-​living. When I opened the foil-​wrapped «burrito,» the thing sort of fell apart. It wasn’t even wrapped properly. There was no real flavor there, just an assortment of ingredients that technically constituted a burrito. The chips had this oily, stale flavor and I have no idea what the guacamole was made from. I received a small tub of green flavorless mush with some tomatoes. The tomatoes actually had flavor, which was the only thing that did in the whole meal.
I’m very suspect of why people are rating this place so highly, and I question their Mexican food palette. San Loco isn’t necessarily good, but it’s doable when you need a junk food fix and pretty tasty when you’re drunk. When you want something good, there’s Bonita’s nearby or you can go into the city for Pinche Taqueria or even some La Esquina.
I still haven’t found a good mexican delivery place in Greenpoint, but I’d be waaaay better off with some cheap chinese from Wah Kwoon or some tasty Thai from Erb. Actually, I’d have been happier with peanut butter and a glass of soy milk.

I love this place. Simple, tasty Mexican food for not a lot of money. All of the times I used to wonder,
«What if there were a place like Taco Bell that didnt’ suck?»
were answered by these industrious Asian immigrants. Everything here is pretty cheap but their ingredients (at least every time I’ve been here) are surprisingly fresh and tasty. The beef they use in their tacos is very tasty and the chicken is respectable. Their tacos and burritos are both pretty solid. The quesdadillas are also good. Don’t waste your time with the Nachos or Guacamole. Trust me.
+2 Stars for the Shrimp. For a fast food place, Fresco Tortilla has pretty substantial shrimp. Plump, juicy and hella buttery. These shrimp tacos and shrimp quesadillas are nothin’ but the truth. This is a dream come true for that small subsection of the population (myself included) who love Mexican food, love shrimp, and are broke as hell.

I order here only because i couldn’t find the other menus. I’ve never even
stepped foot inside this place and there i was ordering a taco salad,
veggie quesa. and a chicken burrito. This later seemed to be a twist
of fate, becuase i think i can say i have never had food come so
quickly, without anything being wrong with it. The food is really
amzaing, everthing is fresh, no soggy food here! The chicken is
seasoned with some kind of heaven, then grilled to perfection. I think i
might be in love with this place!

Yeah, it’s cheap, and it’s the closest to a lot of apartment buildings. And that’s why it gets two stars.
The food is cold, tasteless, and sloppily made. A burrito consists of a bunch of crap thrown together at random and dumped on a tortilla. Barely wrapped at all.
Do yourself a favor and go to Loco on Graham. Which isn’t all that great, but it’s miles better than this.

I’ll go for the lolcat review and say NOM NOM NOM.

Order a bunch of stuff and just eat out the bag!
Everything is good and cheap here.
I would not call this place nutritious but you gotta order in sometimes.
