After over a year of planning, construction and preparation, Social Taco is finally opening its doors.

Brought to you by the brains behind SoHo Social and SoHo Standard, Social Taco is a brand-new restaurant with a menu of fresh and delicious Mexican eats.

According to the restaurant’s opening announcement, here’s what you can expect:

 Vibrant, fresh ingredients, more traditional style tacos, and a few unique items. The Tablitas appetizer of grilled short ribs is not something most folks will readily recognize. Same for the Tlayudas, a staple of Qaxacan street food, and probably best described as a ‘Mexican pizza.’

Following in the footsteps of Soho Social, we’ll also have a $1 beer all the time, along with an evolving selection of tequilas and mezcals. Expect a fun, laid back atmosphere with friendly, casual service. We look forward to hearing more feedback from folks and making adjustments based on that.

As usual, I’ve given the menu a deep dive and rounded up a few items I know I’ll be trying:

  • Pollo tlayudas (Mexican pizza): fire roasted chicken with avocado, pico, queso fresco
  • Tuna ceviche: diced tuna and fresh pico tossed in passionfruit vinaigrette with chips
  • Carne asada: mesquite grilled flank steak, sliced and served with charred tomatoes, grilled spring onion, avocado, radish, grilled corn tortillas
  • Churros: fresh fried churros with soft serve ice cream
