About Taqueria Ramirez

Taqueria Ramirez is a popular spot in Greenpoint, known for its amazing tacos. The small and cozy restaurant can get crowded, so customers should not expect waiter service or a place to sprawl out. Quick eating and leaving is common, making seating available again. The tacos are worth the wait, with many praising them as some of the best they've had outside of Mexico. The campechano taco, in particular, is highly recommended for its perfect seasoning and well-cooked meat. The suadero taco, made with slow-cooked beef confit, is also a favorite, overflowing with juicy meat. Vegetarian options like the Nopales Taco are available, but some customers have found the texture and seasoning lacking compared to other places. The restaurant has a simple and clean ambiance, and the orders are quick with friendly staff. There is a self-serve topping and sauce bar for added customization. While the meat portions are generous, there have been comments about seasoning consistency. Customers often praise the al pastor taco as being excellent, with some rating it 10/10, though others have found the tacos to be a bit dry. Overall, it is a great place for flavorful tacos, especially if quick service and casual dining are preferred. Many are willing to travel far just for these tacos, making Taqueria Ramirez a must-visit taco spot in NYC.
