Taqueria Emilio has officially arrived on Avenue B.
The fourth outpost of the family-owned quick-serve taco shop opened over the weekend at 168 Avenue B between 10th Street and 11th Street, marked by a festive ribbon-cutting backed by a mariachi band.
Below are owners Delfina Saldivar, Emilio Alvarado, and their daughter Emily Alvarado, plus staffers, aka "the team."
Taqueria Emilio got its start in Inwood, later expanding to the Bronx and Brooklyn before landing in the East Village.
The menu features a range of tacos and platters, including a house specialty dubbed "La Famosa Ruleta" — a $55 wheel of 15 tacos with a choice of three meats (chicken, chorizo, al pastor, etc.), plus sodas.
There are several dining tables inside the space.
Hours are 10 a.m. to 1 a.m., seven days a week.
