Great Margaritas (my fave is: De la Calle), amazing (!!!) guacamole with pomegranate , incredible ceviche , quesadillas , churros.The best Mexican fine dining I've ever had! Highly recommended in NYC!!!

Paige C

The ambiance, service and food were all outstanding. We had a lovely waiter who was fun and engaging. Don't miss the mango & pomegranate guacamole mixed with any combination of homemade tacos . YUM!

Russell Hirschorn

Ceviche peruano and tortilla soup a must. Guacamole frutas lacked flavor and huevos mutelenos should be in the soup category. Overall very nice and will be back.

Mexican charm. Several charming rooms, outside seating great for a date. Where I fell inlove w mezcal . Faves: mezcalitas, chunky guacamole , lobster tacos . Feeling brave? Try the grasshopper taco !

Paola Viscogliosi

The queso fundido , ceviche is great. We loved the carne asada tacos were great. My only complaint is the service. We were never asked how the food was once we were served and why I didn't touchmine

Andie Sleeman

Discovered this place a few months ago and have been back 4 times. The food is consistently great, the service good enough (they're always slammed) and the agave spirits selection is awesome!

Jane van Schaardenburg

Sauces are excellent, the measure of a good Mexican place . Ingredients are combine well , simmered so every dish has its own rich flavor. Good menu choices.

Nate

I love this place. The Campecanos Tacos are probably one of the best tacos I've ever eaten in my entire life. Their house-made chorizo will have its way with your taste buds. In a good way.

The Huitlacoche and truffle quesadilla is amazing! Try the Cafe de Olla with Tequila , excellent ending to an outstanding meal.

Theo Davis

The frutas guacamole is unbelievable. Pair it with the atun ceviche and you'll be drowned in fresh flavor. The short rib tacos are a must but I'd pass on the tilapia . Beware of small portions.

Elizabeth Pearson

Black truffle quesadilla is out of this world! Also, try the medium guacamole ; it has pomegranate and pineapple . Definitely my new favorite place in the UES!

R K

Amazing guacamole , avocado fries and tacos . Potent Margaritas , very potent. Great crew and service. Going back ASAP.

Mahesh Bahuleyan

Get the short rib tacos !! They don't have it on the menu sometimes but they'll make it for you if you ask them. Delicious!

Kelli M

Rio Sandia and miso cod with guacamole trio to start. Reserve ahead, this place is always busy.

Things to get besides the guacamole , which is great- truffle quesadilla , braised brisket tacos and spicy shrimp tacos . Tequila selection is great

Brad B

Easily my favorite restaurant on the UES. Sit at the bar . Get the salsa . Carne Asada dinner is amazing. Love it.

Polina Weitz

Great, strong margaritas . Smooth guacamole and delicious ceviche . Tacos were good, but not amazing.

Sindhya Valloppillil

The food here has that 'como aqua chocolate ' effect. The mole sauce here is ridic. So is the ceviche . Add cocktails and you will go crazy... Every time.

Fernando Rojas

The margaritas are the bomb!!! Try the Cecina plate its delicious!!!

Kartik Sathappan

Get the callos de hacha. Best meal in years, seriously impressed.

Olivia Fabbro

Yummy yummy food but they'll seat you in the back/outside area if they don't like the way you look aka a teenager

Colin Lee

The fruit guac is excellent and unique. The quesadilla portion is rather small

Smallest quesadilla I have ever seen in my life. Delicious, but designed to feed a Polly pocket.
