The Cortelyou Road Taco Truck Is Back!

The Cortelyou Road Taco Truck Is Back!
Cortelyou Taco Truck

Welcome back to the Gonzalez family! They’re back selling tacos (and more) out of a truck parked on Cortelyou Road at East 16th Street after a crazy few months — their original Tacos Mexico cart was stolen one night in January, then was discovered by the patriarch of the family, remade into a halal cart, in February.

Yesterday neighbor Eric Cova told us he’d had a sighting, then last night neighbor Noah Apple confirmed, sending us this photo, and adding that they’ll be there, in a different cart for now, with the tacos we’ve come to love, as well as milkshakes (perfect for a 90-degree day, right?). He adds:

The original cart was found, but its ownership is being contested in court. It is currently in possession someone who owns a fleet of carts, who doesn’t have any records of ownership (vin #, registration etc).

They’ll be out there Monday through Friday in the afternoons-evenings, so be on the lookout!
