Paquito's, the dependable Mexican takeout spot on First Avenue between St. Mark's Place and Ninth Street, closed for renovations yesterday... (thanks to Lola Sáenz for the tip and photos!)
Their Instagram account puts the reopening at Dec. 28... with the promise of a new look...
Paquito's, which first opened in 1992, closed its bar-restaurant next door at the end of last year due to a reported rent increase.
Miss that garden :(
ReplyDeleteSan Loco should open in this space then close their Stanton Street location.
ReplyDeletePaquito's is way better than San Loco, imo
DeleteTheir service is surly, but they do have damn good chicken soft tacos. Hope the renovation includes friendlier staff members.
ReplyDeleteIt's astounding that it's still there! Is the next door Paquito's still there too?
ReplyDelete10:27am here again. No way Paquito's is better than San Loco which has been open since before you were born (possibly.)
