Emily Wilson

The tomatillo guac is excellent, as are the tacos (we tried steak and chicken — both killer). Skip the beef ribs (too fatty, hard to eat). Order a tequila or mezcal based cocktail to wash it all down.

Alexandra Pearson

Beautifully bright , airy space and creative Mexican food . The queso fundido complicado and the fried shrimp tacos were incredible!

Inna G

Steak taco and shrimp taco are great! The complicated cheese is a bit tasteless. The Brussels lack taste as well .

Kayleigh Harrington

You can't go wrong with anything on the menu here. The steak tacos with chicharrones will blow your mind. Great cocktails too.

Adrian Phillips

Social hour until 7pm has some great cocktails at solid prices. Highlights were the shrimp tacos , octopus (kind of like a mini paella ) and the simple queso .

Saif Dia

You won't be disappointed by anything you order, everything is fantastic - especially the lamb ribs . Though, the tacos are slightly disappointing given there are only two per order

Amar Pradhan

Excellent everything! Try the octopus , quesos , steak tacos !

Alex Heath

Everything was exceptional. Get the queso , spit a few tacos , and share a couple of bigger plates. (Best lamb I've ever had) Cocktails are great

Peter Janowski

Great new spot in the neighborhood . Queso fundido complicado and beef back ribs were awesome! Definitely will be coming back to try more.

Cécile

Very delicious and a nice setup. Get the seats along the window and people-watch. One of my favorite streets in Brooklyn.

Kristina P

One of the best Mexican restaurants ever! Their food is extremely good and creative, flavors are rich (although not as spicy as in Mexico), and their service is impeccable.

Queso fundido simple and the octopus/pork belly with avocado aioli are amazing

Jarel Hill

Had the steak and egg sandwich . Pretty bomb. Want to try something else next time everything looks amazing. Atmosphere is great

Allan Lopez

Strong margs , tacos and huevos rancheros are good. Don’t get the breakfast quesadilla , it’s extremely tiny.

Haley Curtiss

Everything is good! Especially the shrimp tacos , short rib , and cookies for dessert !

Erin

Queso simple , tacos (chicken ), and octopus ! i'll be back to try a cocktail .

Rami Haykal-Manning

Queso fundido , tempura shrimp tacos and the octopus were all worth ordering

Luke

Upscale , but has an authentic approach that helps justify the $$$. Don't expect to fill up on tacos or starters

Jo

Queso simple with plantains and pumpkin seed queso

Jo

Queso simple with honey and pumpkin , plantain chips
