About the Business
Taqueria Nixtamal, located in New York City, is a beloved institution founded in 2008 by the husband and wife team Fernando and Ros Ruiz. Inspired by the traditional Mexican practice of getting fresh tortillas from local tortillerias, Nixtamal aims to bring the same experience to the bustling streets of NYC.
Their journey began with the introduction of an artisanal tortilla machine in Queens, supplying fresh Nixtamal tortillas to various establishments across the city. Over time, their business grew and transformed into a vibrant taqueria, offering a wide array of authentic Mexican dishes.
In 2022, Taqueria Nixtamal was honored to be selected as the official taqueria of the US OPEN, showcasing their delicious tacos, birria, shrimp cocktails, and mole to a global audience. They also participated in the popular Queens Night Market in Corona Park in 2023, delighting thousands of visitors with their flavorful and traditional Mexican cuisine. Visit Taqueria Nixtamal for a taste of Mexico right in the heart of New York City.
Reviews
"Tried these in the US open 3 mini tacos for $20 had almost no chicken I don’t recommend"
"The food here is so good, especially the birria and mole. Corn tortillas made fresh, available by the pound or as chips for takeaway. Both are always in my kitchen."
"My review is based on the birria that was amazing and tasted like home, it was mouthwatering. My main reason to visit this place was to try their fresh tortillas that they sell by the pound and unfortunately they were out, so I will have to come back again and give you and update."
"Wow. Delicious. Seriously, underrated. Best Mexican food anywhere around here. You have to try the birria tacos and/or ramen. We’ve been to other birria places around here and all that was straight up mediocre. Looking at the other reviews here, people are just silly. The prices are as they should for the location and the food is legit delicious! The employees are also super kind. This is located inside Essex market which has tons of seating and an awesome atmosphere to escape the noise of the city."
"I had 2 tacos carnitas and an agua de horchata. The tacos were delicious although pricey but the horchata was not home made, tastes like the premade bag horchata powder that you just add to water ."
