Score 86/100 · Order: Brisket taco, birria consommé · $16–26
Lola 55 sits between taqueria and restaurant: house masa, smoked meats, and a serious agave list. Portions run small for the price, but the cooking is precise and the East Village patio works for a long lunch.
Local tip: The brisket taco is the one to order; everything else is supporting cast.
