Amazing tacos! Super tender and well season!!
I absolutely loved their carnitas and maciza tacos!! They’re so good. The maciza was super tender and delicious. Their hot sauces are also great. The verde is mild and the red sauce is SPICY GOODNESS!! Def a repeated customer.
Some of the best carnitas in NYC. I have traveled a lot around Mexico as a chef and know for a fact this place is really underrated and flying under the radar. Come and get the mixed carnitas they are cooked really nicely and super moist and tender. I also love that they don't cut it too small so you can really see and enjoy the different parts of the pig. The portions are also very generous not to mention the people running it are very nice.
