About Pink Taco - NYC
The Spotlight on Pink Taco - NYC

Bold Flavors and Big Energy in the Heart of Times Square

Pink Taco NYC brings West Coast cool to Midtown Manhattan with edgy decor, vibrant vibes, and a menu full of flavorful Mexican-inspired dishes. Located right in Times Square, it's just a short walk from many of the city’s biggest concert venues—making it a prime spot for pre-show fuel or post-concert cocktails. Think neon lights, skull murals, and a soundtrack that keeps the energy high.

Why Concert-goers love it

This spot is all about location and energy. You’re less than a 10-minute walk from major performance spaces, and the fast-paced service means you can grab tacos and tequila without missing the opening act. The music inside is lively, but not overpowering—perfect for getting hyped before a show. Plus, they offer late-night hours for those grabbing a bite after the encore.

Who this Restaurant is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a fun, shareable meal
  • Solo travelers who want to sit at the bar and soak up the scene
  • Couples making a night of it with tacos and tequila before the show
  • Fans wanting a high-energy pre-show experience
  • Budget-conscious music lovers—portion sizes are generous and prices fair for the area

What People Say

Diners rave about the creative taco combinations, strong margaritas, and fun, edgy atmosphere. Many say it’s a great place to kick off a night out, with quick service and a vibe that feels like a party. The location is also a huge plus—just steps from the heart of Broadway and big-name concert venues.

Areas for Improvement

It can get a bit loud and crowded during peak times, so it’s not ideal if you’re looking for a quiet pre-show dinner. Some reviewers also mention that it’s more about the scene than five-star cuisine—but most agree the food is tasty and satisfying.

The Bottom Line

If you’re looking for a high-energy, flavor-packed spot near the stage lights of Times Square, Pink Taco NYC delivers on fun, speed, and location.
