REVIEWS:
Just two blocks away from the highest point in Brooklyn, Tacos Matamoros in Sunset Park easily beat all of the Manhattan taco joints in terms of taste and price. Located in the 5th avenue Mexican corridor this surprisingly clean and BYOB restaurant has a huge menu that surely will satisfy everybody’s appetite.
You know it is authentic when they have Horchata ($1.50) and Lengua (Beef Tongue), Cabeza (Cow head meat), Cueritos (Pickled Pork Rinds) and Suadero (Beef cut from the intermediate part between the belly and the leg and above the udder) on their tacos menu for $1.25 to $1.75 each. The Carne Asada is cooked to perfection one can taste the real flavor of the flank steak/ skirt steak. The Al Pastor is heavenly and the Suadero, in my opinion is the best I have eaten in a long time. For herbivores the Vegetarianos Tacos consists of huge piles of Queso Blanco cheese instead of meat.
Besides tacos this authentic Mexican joint also serves up some HUGE platos of food in wide variety. Lots of hombres are chowing down the $10 Bistec a la Mexicana (steak Mexican style). Seafood lovers got their very spicy looking $13 Camarones a la Diabla (shrimp devil style) and romantic dating couples sharing a Coteles Camarones (shrimp cocktails) for $8.50.
I honestly am thinking about moving to Sunset Park just because of the food, no kidding! That’s the magical power of Tacos Matamoros!

You cannot beat BYOB!
Their tacos come in two different sizes- Pequenos (small) or Grande (large). The large cost around $2.25 each and come with big chunks of guacamole. We think that the guacamole is a bit overpowering so we recommend to get the small tacos and get a side of guacamole for only $1.50.
The most expensive items on the menu is Ostiones en su Concha ($15.50)- a dozen of fresh oysters on the half shell.
Bring a big stomach. Their portion are HUGE!
