Why your support matters
You are completely right about Friducha. The only thing you left out is that they have the best cheese burger platter with fries or salad and chips and salsa sauce for $13 in Greenpoint.

No mention of La Superior?
Vamos al tequila!
Hands down, Ramirez is the most legit on this list, The unmentioned La Superior would come in 2nd.
vamos al tequila should be on here!
VAMOS AL TEQUILA is my favorite, especially their healthy options like Salmon Cinquo de Maio, Burrito Macho (ask for kale to replace rice!), their amazing moles. Authentic, delicious, family run.
