" Disappointing experience. While I was excited to try Carnitas Ramirez, the tacos were lukewarm and the service was lacking. The staff seemed more interested in chatting than serving. I ordered a variety of pork cuts and felt that they were overcooked. I could see the potential for better food, but unfortunately, my visit did not live up to the hype. I might give it another shot in the future, hoping for improvement. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for this taco joint but was sadly disappointed. The meats lacked the depth of flavor I expected, and the tortillas seemed bland and stale. The service was adequate, but I felt rushed through my order. I think the hype may have outpaced reality. Perhaps I caught them on an off day, but I likely won’t be returning any time soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" A cozy taco spot with fantastic food! I tried several different cuts, including the belly and cheek, both were top-notch. The self-serve salsa station allowed for great customization, and the atmosphere was vibrant but relaxed. The only downside was that the tacos were a bit small for the price, but the quality makes it worth every penny. Will be coming back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Skeptical at first, but wow, what a fantastic place! Every taco was a revelation, bursting with flavor. I tried the brain and tongue and was amazed at how tender and juicy they were. The self-serve salsa bar allowed me to personalize my meal perfectly. The staff was cheerful and made sure I had everything I needed. Five-star experience all around! " (*Curated Review*)

" The best carnitas tacos I've had outside of Mexico! I had the cheek and tongue tacos, and they were incredibly tender and flavorful. Adding the pickled vegetables and salsas from the bar was a game changer! The ambiance was lively, with friendly staff eager to share their recommendations. Definitely will return for more. It felt like walking into a little piece of Mexico right in NYC! " (*Curated Review*)

" The line was a bit daunting, but the wait was absolutely worth it! Carnitas Ramirez serves some of the best tacos in the city, hands down. I enjoyed the variety of cuts available and their dedication to authentic Mexican style. The ambiance felt very communal, which made the experience even better. Highly recommend the cheek tacos!
