Pretty good local spot for tacos.I grabbed some the other day for lunch, and they hit the spot.I had a steak, chicken, and pork al pastor.The al pastor had the best taste, but it was smaller than the rest.The chicken and steak were good, but I got a few chunks of fat in each, which was a bit of a turn-off.For the price, however, it was a good lunch.
The vegetarian burrito was filled with vegetables out of a can (carrots, peas and corn) and nothing else.I can't image anything more revolting.
On food quality alone, El Mirador is the best restaurant in Kensington and dwarfs most of Brooklyn's Mexican restaurants.Prices are great and fair and there's a wide menu capable of accommodating most. I usually don't doc points for service but El Mirador is incredibly flakey.Sometimes they just don't open.Getting delivery from them is a great way to ruin an afternoon and even in person, it can take upwards of ninety minutes to get small orders. I try to judge on food alone but this place is so lethargic and unpredictable that the experience can and will be periodically ruined by their own disfunction.
