- Rewan PartiSeptiembre 22, 2017They have hands down one of the best tacos. Order the guacamole, the 7 salsas, red snapper ceviche, sea bass taco, chili pork taco and skirt stake taco. They have some great vegetarian options also!
- Tim SheaJunio 8, 2017Get one of the melted cheeses, the chorizo one is especially good, but they're all good. The guac is delicious too! And great tacos!! Delicious food, a tad pricey, but worth it!
- Roniel TesslerSeptiembre 17, 2017Might be my favorite Mexican restaurant in the city. Pastrami, Lamb, and fried oysters tacos are amazing. That cashew sauce with the guac is incredible.
- Jessica WickhamAbril 18, 2017Great margaritas - Highly recommend the shishito peppers, sea bass taco and broccoli tacos. Friendly staff who rang to keep us updated on our table wait.
- Dan SohaydaAbril 13, 2018Second room in back so don't get scared if the front is packed. Our server was incredibly friendly and helpful with food allergies. Drinks were good, and food was even better. Tacos are small go for 3
- Elliot WehnerJulio 26, 2015Everything is good here. Love the chips + guac and the 7 or so salsas. Make sure to get extra chips bc they are so good they will go quick. Margaritas are well executed - I prefer the classic.
- Jane KatzAgosto 17, 2015spicy cucumber marg is the underdog of the drink menu. Make sure to eat fish tacos + shishito pepper queso. The best ceviche is the hamachi with shaved fennel and avocado. Sat night duck tacos=100

- Paige CSeptiembre 22, 2014The pork tacos with the grilled pineapple were truly amazing. We also loved their salsa sampler - each one bringing something different to the meal. They could use more dessert options.
- Nicolette RomeroNoviembre 1, 2015In the mood for tacos? Then this is your spot. Start with the guacamole - the jalapeños give it some kick! Go for the carne asada or fish tacos. Be sure to add verde!
- Madison EarlyAgosto 18, 2018Tacos were the best I’ve ever had. Margaritas were amazing. they didn’t have the AC on so it was an unpleasant dining experience in the middle of August in humid manhattan but I will go back for sure.
- Mara LecocqNoviembre 18, 2014The chicken taco was good. Nice decor/bar vibe and sitting by the window gives a nice view on the street. Not cheap but you pay for the decor, location and view.

- Chris EvansNoviembre 10, 2014Wow everything is so good. Just close your eyes and point to something. But if you have to choose, go with the pork shoulder. It's really unreal.
- Lori LuoAgosto 11, 2014Drop by on weekend afternoons for a quality Mexican-inspired brunch. Items like the Scrambled Egg Fundido and Buttermilk Pancakes are sure to please.
