Le Taq is the new tequila bar (with a restaurant in the back) next door to La Taqueria, the longtime burrito place on Seventh Avenue near Berkeley.
Le Taq is owned by Marty Modina, the guy who brought the California burrito to Park Slope first at La Taqueria on Seventh Avenue (pictured) and Rachel’s on Fifth Avenue. About these businesses: We love the murals, we love the prices, and we love Marty’s vintage red pick up truck parked outside.
Le Taq has a huge selection of tequila, as well as a big menu of cocktails and wine. I had a drink called, Rachel’s, a really sweet purple/pink punch with, I guess, tequila. Whoa, was that strong.
The chips and salsa were delicious.
People were eating at tables in the back. With a new bar, nice lighting, big Mexican murals on the wall and a dining room in the back, Le Taq is set to be a real hit on Seventh Avenue just a few doors from Santa Fe.
Le Taq occupies the first 7th avenue space zuzu’s petals was in, then called ” Growingthings”.In 1972 the rent was $300.
