Been coming here for date night once a month. White Sangria , Elotes de la Calle (Mexican street corn ), and carne assada is a combination for the ages. Great staff , great food, amazing times.

Erik Cintron

Descent spot, The food was good and the staff was friendly & knowledgable . In a nice upscale area. Outside seating and long bar . Prices were fair and they make fresh guacamole in front of you. Milfs

Lacey Robbins

Best restaurant on LI! Every dish was better than the last! Skirt steak & mahi mahi were ridiculous! Def get a bunch of appetizers to share; crab cake , taquitos , and the goat cheese empenadas!!

Eddie

Amazing margaritas and guacamole . If you go you have to get the filete steak . Free churros and best part was our little Mexican worry doll he gave is to ward off any worries!

Paige C

Must haves: Made-to-order guacamole , any drink on the specials menu, and the churros that come after dinner . And the ambiance is pretty amazing as well .

My favorite restaurant in Long Island . Guacamole is a must! Mojitos are really good here too!

Juan

Ask for an extra piece of guac while its being made in front of you. Ask for a side of lime . 3 leches was dismal. Best part of the meal was the voodoo doll at the end.

Emily Basile

Great food, their house pomegranate margarita is the bomb. Yummy church 's and little worry dolls with the check. Great place overall.

Paige C

The house margarita is delightfully tart and sweet. I love it.

Marc B

Excellent food. Arrachera was tender and flavourful, the guacamole made at the table was amazing.

Sasha Volkova

Amazing carne asado ???????? and got free dessert for birthday

Aleia

Now serving brunch !!! Two for one margaritas . Mango , strawberry and watermelon ;)

Bloomingdale's

A candlelit back wall. A high-beamed, eucalyptus-reeded ceiling. The perfect date night spot ! We suggest ordering the guacamole (made tableside) and a pitcher of sangria to share.

Marisela Oquendo

SANGRIA does have fruit and it was amazing! Guacamole amazing! Ceviche amazing! Enchiladas Amazing! Just go!!!

Justin Samson

Best Mexican restaurant in the area. Everything is awesome here.

Tee Baby

Complimentary churros & a lucky Mexican good luck charm after every meal. The lemonade is homemade and perfect.

Louis DiVito

Everything was excellent ! Mussels are a must, 6 waysdifferentwayswaysways

Kelsey Lee

The churros are amazing, and don't forget to grab a Hershey's kiss on your way out!

Sheryl

This chocolate sponge cake with strawberries is amazing!

Allison

Pork pineapple tacos were amazing. Wish they gave you more guac !

Alyssa Citarella

They were cheap with their guacamole 2 bowls wasn't enough for 8 ppl. A true fusion of American & Mexican cooking & plating. Not what I expected, but still good if that's what you're looking to try.

Steven D. Lichtenstein

Order the shrimp ceviche and a pitcher of red sangria and you're good to go !

Peter Schiller

Great Mojito's with real sugar cane ... Yummy! Love the chips and guacamole made right in front of you. Love this place!

There's guacamole and then there's guacamole . Oh, and sometimes there's guacamole .... Guacamole .

Gary Riger

The best food I have had in a very long time period.

Michael Dylan Ferrara

House marg is amazing ????

Chris T

Great margaritas but disappointed by the tacos (soft and not hard).

Chieko Bonna

Guacamole is missing a kick. Ceviche was good but tasted too thai-ish w/ peanut paste. Mole sauce was very good, but chicken was dry. Overall was decent, nothing special. Made me miss Rosa Mexicano.

Vince Collura

Their guacamole is it out of this world! They will give you chips until you cry, and churros come complimentary after the check!

Scott Flashner

Everything is great.

Allison

Table guac and a mean margarita .

Michael G.

Delicious guacamole

Gregory Maitland

Try the mole ' sauce...you WILL NOT be sorry.

Jess Coleman

Free churros and worry dolls with the check!

Suzanne Sorbara

The best margaritas & guacamole .

Diego Pasca

This place is definitely over rated. The sangria was mediocre at best. It tasted like cheap wine and water. I've worked in restaurants and was a bartender . The portions were not worth the price.

Christopher Freda

Best Mexican food on Long Island

Dave Kerpen

Don't you dare leave without getting the guacamole .

Priyanka Moondra

Tableside guac ????

Katrina Doell

The ceviche is always great!

Richard Castera

Try the Guacamole and Chips

Phabi

The food was delish but the service was not the greatest

Alyssa Deitchman

They make their mojito's with patron, they are amazing!

We made reservations for 8 people two weeks in advance. Upon arrival we were told that the reservation "wouldn't work." They then offered a tiny booth that'd fit 6 and watched our party of 8 walk out.
