“This is one of my favorite local spots! The food is delicious and never misses. I always get an al pastor and a chorizo taco. It’s affordable, quick, and easy! Their other dishes are also super yummy. A few tables if you want to dine in, but also still tastes great as takeout.“

“(3.8/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️)Local late night taco truck ! You can’t go wrong if you want some Mexican during late hours. Over all I don’t think they’re out of this world - I don’t think they’re bad.

“The tacos were delicious! I especially recommend trying the Nopal Taco if you’ve never had cactus before,it was one of my favorites. The horchata was also really good; it’s a sweet drink made with rice and cinnamon, and definitely worth trying. There was a line when we arrived, but it moved very quickly. We only waited about 7–8 minutes. Overall, it was a great experience!“

“Just the best Mexican food In NYC“

“Carnitas Ramirez is one of the most authentic taco spot I tried on the East Coast. We went there on a Saturday night and tried six different type of meats, all flavorful and melting in the mouth, with a special mention for the crispy pork belly. Do not hesitate to try the most unusual cuts! These are among the most surprising and delightful one.“

“The pork chop was succulent and had the most amazing spice combination. The barbacoa was the best I have ever had. Not a fan of the mezcal, but I gave it a try. Other more common drinks looked great with a good pour. Good vibe and open late with a super friendly staff!“

“The Best Pho in NYC, the broth is delicious & Service fast and friendly. It been my 3rd time here. I was not disappointed. I recommend all my friends.“

“Great place to watch the sunset over NYC! Great drinks and good food! Excellent service.“

“Dos Toros has been my favorite fast casual Mexican for over a decade. The food has always been excellent. Further, nobody makes a tighter burrito. Shoutout to Jada today who made my burrito and perfectly! I didn’t lose a single grain of rice!“

“The tacos here are tasty and delightfully cheap given their location. In addition, the whole layout of the restaurant makes sure that you get your meal quickly and get on with your day. The entrance leads straight to the line for ordering, on the way to which you also pass by the place's short but comprehensive menu. After ordering, you receive a ticket to bring to the chefs in the counter right besides you, who then make your order on the spot and give it to you.
The tables here have no chairs, only room to stand. While I'm sure this is inconvenient for some, it also ensures that people don't take their time eating here and why you'll almost never need to wait for a table once you get your food. The standing-up tables might not be for everyone, but I like it.
This trifecta of fast, cheap, and tasty is what fast food is all about in my opinion, and in a time and place where it is becoming increasingly rare, it's very nice to see that places like this are still going strong“

“Absolutely incredible place I even got to meet the manager. The guy was awesome. I recommend this place completely to anybody else is off the hook fantastic“

“Atmosphere, amazing! Food, top! Jeffrey, BRAVISSIMO!“

“went to the west 43rd street location in Manhattan. huge portions and excellent food“

“great place located in Brooklyn. come out and support!“

“This place was amazing! We tried the birria tacos and they were absolutely incredible, super flavorful, juicy, and so fresh. The pollo quesadillas were also really good, perfectly cooked and satisfying. Everything tasted fresh.
Definitely a spot we’d come back to again!“

“Playa Betty's has great tasting tacos and the staff and atmosphere is awesome! ❣️ frm:🇯🇵🇺🇸“

“great tasting food also good service and environment“

“I visited this taco spot and the food was amazing! I wasn't entirely sure what I ordered because of some unfamiliar terms on the menu, but except for the quesadilla, we tried 6 different items and every single one of them was delicious.
However, the seating is quite limited and not very comfortable. If you live close enough that your tacos won't get cold on the way, I’d highly recommend ordering takeout instead.“

“AMAZING tacos! I happened to be wandering around when I came across this place. Was hungry so I stopped in. I got 3 chicken tacos and 1 steak. They were very nice and even directed me on what to avoid because of my shellfish allergy! Can’t wait to eat here again!“

“We are so thankful to have Candle right by our apt!! Their Black Bean Quinoa burgers and Chickpea Burgers are amazing-we order them 2x a week!! Great soups, great kind staff, just overall a great neighborhood gem.“

“Some of the best birria tacos I’ve had in Manhattan. The staff is friendly, patient, and very fast. What a wonderful place!“

“On a rainy day exploring the city, this little place didn’t disappoint! The tacos were full of flavor and a great price! The barbacoa taco was so tender! My hubs had the steak quesadilla and chicken taco- all perfectly seasoned! Everything was better with the salsa bar. Great portion sizes. Do not sleep on the hibiscus aqua Fresca- delicious! The place was clean and easy to eat at while the rain fell!“

“Really good for a quick bite, took a little bit too long for two small tacos in a quick bite situation and I’m not sure it’s the best vibe for like a sit down nice dinner, but it’s really good for take out. They also have really good margaritas.“

“Hands down the best spot around here. Unfortunately I'm moving to Brooklyn. But I will be definitely come back here! Amazing tacos and burritos. Better than popular chains nearby. Authentic food is always winning! Also, the guys are great, pretty fast and positive!“

“Best Guacamole i’ve ever had with their homemade chips!!!!! The Braised pork Tostada with green sauce is to die for as well as the chorizo quesodilla! MmmmmMmmmm!“

“After hunting for good Mexican food for over a year, it’s safe to say this place checks all the boxes. The staff are always friendly, the food is divine, and the portions are reasonable. There is limited seating, but it is cozy and nice if the weather is good. I will say, if you order through an app, the portions are quite a bit smaller so it’s worth going in-person. Everything is good so you can’t miss, but I especially love the beans they use in the Al Pastor burrito and the salsa verde.“

“They are the most authentic tacos I have had since my last visit to Mexico. Great flavor Great Price and Great service“

“Great find. Saw a crowd and ordered. Wow one of the juiciest, most flavorful tacos and mulita I've had. Definitely try their mulita. The owner was kind enough to make me try the soup and it was one of the most flavorful soups I've had. This is spot on. Must try.“

“TAQ has quietly become one of my go-to spots in Tribeca — a solid, no-nonsense bar that nails the balance between strong drinks, improved food, and an atmosphere that doesn’t try too hard but still hits right. It’s not just another crowded downtown joint; it’s the crew that keeps things running smooth even when the place is packed wall-to-wall.

Behind the bar, **Sam and Dom** are a straight-up dynamic duo. Sam’s got that sharp efficiency and personality behind the stick, while Dom as barback hustles like a machine, always two steps ahead. Their synergy is unreal; they read each other so clean that even on the busiest Friday crush, drinks flow without a single hiccup. It lowkey puts most other bars in this city to shame. You can tell they’ve been grinding together long enough for that telepathic rhythm — the kind that makes chaos look effortless. (Pause)

**Derek and Alyana** bring their own flavor to the floor, and it works. They’re funny, attentive without being in your face, and quick with a dry one-liner that makes you feel like a regular from jump. They don’t just serve; they entertain in that understated NYC way.

Then there’s **Cole**, the manager. I first crossed paths with him back when he was bartending and, real talk, the food wasn’t exactly setting the world on fire. But Cole’s the type who knows his product. One night I swung in just for drinks and caught a whiff of their nachos from his plate — smelled like straight paradise, perfectly seasoned and fresh. I made a comment, and he lit up, explaining how the whole menu got revamped for the better. Man was so convincing I gave it another shot. Turns out he was right, and now I’m hooked. That kind of lowkey confidence from management is rare.

I’ve gotta give it up for the **Tuesday and Friday specials** — straight gas, and my favorite days to pop by in. Whether it’s the drink deals or the plates, they deliver real value without phoning it in. Tuesday’s a perfect mid-week reset, while Friday brings that unbeatable energy. Both nights consistently slap with flavor and vibes.

Overall, TAQ isn’t some overhyped Tribeca scene spot — it’s a place where the team’s chemistry and hustle actually show up in every round. If you’re in the neighborhood looking for solid service, upgraded food that delivers, and a crew that seems to actually enjoy the grind, pull up. You’ll walk out fed, buzzed, and already plotting the next visit.“

“We were in the area and got a 6:30pm reservation 30 mins in advance on Open Table. Despite being a last-minute reservation and being dressed on the casual side, the hostess greeted us like we were her favorite customers! Cocktails were interesting, nuanced and delicious. They were well-priced for the quality. The house- made tortilla chips were outstanding, and paired with the guacamole with black garlic and mango salsa- yummmmm. Amazing. I had hamachi tacos on blue corn tortillas. The fish was perfectly cooked, the presentation was beautiful, and the flavors fresh and delightful. Portion size was just right. This was the last restaurant meal of our NYC trip and it was an unexpected gem. Try it. You won’t be disappointed!“

“excelente servicio, muy buena comida y muy buen local, recomendado!!“
