Top notch tacos, definitely the best pork cuts in the city. Service is always great and efficient. I live in the neighborhood and this is a weekly lunch stop

My best friend and I have been eyeing this place for a minute. We appreciate it when nothing goes to waste. This restaurant does not disappoint. Fresh slow roasted meat with simple decor like you are in Mexico enjoying an ice cold beer on a scolding hot day. Seating is minimal and gets crowded fast. The spicy is really spicy. Not speaking as just a native New Yorker , but an Indian who puts chilies on everything. We got a mixture of lean to fatty tacos. Great experience. Not too costly either.

I have tried good tacos of all kinds in Queens,BK, and LA, as well as various cites. This is hands down the best taco I have ever had!

Carnitas good, salsas good, service good, ambiance like in a theater set of Mexico. Yet somehow, like all Mexican food in NYC, it disappoints. I can't quite figure out why. Maybe they try too hard or it's the gentrifying prices... To clean perhaps? A mystery.

My friend has lived in the city for a long time and said these are the best tacos he's ever had. We ate there on Friday night and it really was a memorable meal. Other than many different cuts of pork tacos, they only have a few different items on the menu and pork is the only meat they serve, but they do it very well. There's a large image of a pig on the wall that shows where the cut of pork comes from and the name for it. I had four tacos and chose a variety of pork and went back for a 5th. They were all delicious. You put the toppings on yourself.

Delicious tacos, comparable to Mexico City street vendors where you pick which body part's meat you want.

TBH I have no idea what parts of the pig I just ate since I asked for 4 of their most popular tacos so I can’t offer recommendations. However, just go and ask for the same. The best tacos I’ve had in NYC. I really don’t leave reviews either but I bet these tacos could bring peace in the Middle East.

If you’re serious about tacos, this is your spot! This place is easily one of the best taco spots in the city — same owners behind Taquería Ramirez in Greenpoint.

Really authentic cuts of meat that you can’t normally find at other tacos spots. Some of the cuts can get a bit fatty and salty though but great flavor. Price to meat ratio is also very solid.

I’ve tried the shank, cheek and tongue - all really good. They’re known for the surtida (everything) taco which I’ll have to go back and try. The consommé is pretty legit too so if it’s cold out and you feel like something soupy, I’d recommend it!

Gets busy so go at random time to avoid lines
