The Best Restaurants in the East Village Right Now
"Taqueria Ramirez is a hit in Greenpoint, and the team has replicated that success across the bridge in the East Village. This new taqueria sells carnitas tacos made with different parts of the pig. There is trompa (snout), which is rich in collagen, and chamorro (flank), which has crunchy, fried skin. In total, there are around a dozen cuts of meat on the menu, including oreja (ear), buche (stomach), and seso (brain). It’s no wonder Carnitas Ramirez was named in our 2024 Eater Awards as the year’s best counter-service option." - Eater Staff, Robert Sietsema
