AshleyJuly 30, 2016Atmosphere was great. There's games to play all around. Service was poor though and the wait was unreasonable.
Kristy VollJuly 1, 2017The hostess was terrible, the service was great, everything is overpriced and they were out of literally everything at 9pm on a Friday night. I don't have a lot of nice things to say about this place.
If you like the taste of citrus, try the weathervane and the palabra final cocktails! My faves!
Hannah ParvazNovember 1, 2017Really cute rooftop if you can get up. Limited veg options, but super delicious.
Anne GoodnowFebruary 14, 2013Really....and I mean REALLY good food. Try Korean BBQ tacos. Very low prices
Gabriel AndersonMarch 30, 2014The fish tacos and carne tacos... Oh boy! Packed w/ so much flavor. Can't go wrong.
Kevin DudleyAugust 7, 2014Everything we had here was great, but the barbacoa torta really stood out.
The Moroccan lamb on naan taco might be the best taco I've ever eaten.
Stephanie NgMay 4, 2013Tacos = yum! Everything else = ok. Free (gasp!) ping pong in the back bar area.- Good place to work during the day with free WiFi and outlets.
Ken SuhOctober 24, 2016More like bar with fusion taco selection. Interesting place for recommendation. 😎
Angela StevensonMarch 20, 2013One of the best tacos places in town!! Delicious! Very affordable prices ;)
Jordan MockJanuary 10, 2013Some of the best guacamole in the city. Perfect spice level. And tomatillos?
Marshall HMarch 29, 2013Check out their happy hour special (5:30-7:00) - 3 tacos al pastor + a Negro Modela for $10.
J.H.January 3, 2013El pastor was the best of the 4 I tried. Lamb second best. Skirt steak was not exciting.
Gurdeep SinghMarch 23, 2014Tacos are decent nothing amazing. Ambiance is cool Incredibly overpriced and they charge for sauce which the waitress didn't tell us. But They did fix the bill to remove the charge which was nice.
Sam CMarch 30, 2013Pretty tasty, creative renditions of Mexican street food. Not super authentic but still good. Cool space, but definitely overpriced
Mandar MAugust 23, 2013At 8 pm on a thu the place was slammmmed ... They need to get rid of half the bar stools so people can walk up and order .. They would make more money too
Andrea NavarreteMarch 6, 2017Carne asada tacos, michelada and chips with guacamole for the hungover 🤗
Helen QingMarch 6, 2014Tacos were amazing! Atmosphere was nice too with colorful decoration and couches
Loes DeraedemaekerFebruary 23, 2016What a rip-off! The quality of the food was good, but the portion to price ratio was rediculous! They charge dinner prices for tapas portions. Loud environment, you can hardly hear your dinner partner
Great food. Awesome ambiance. Ping ping table included :)
Lisa ParavanoJune 7, 2013The lamb naan taco is the bomb.. Decor is cool.. Too bad the service & wait staff is bottom of the barrel. Disappointing!
Chris DDecember 27, 2012Everything was great except for the lamb taco...how you can serve something that salty and consider yourself a celebrity chef is confusing. Hands down one of the worst things I've ever been served.
Raja HMarch 14, 2013They may sound exciting, but you will absolutely be disappointed with the Crispy Pig Ears.
Angela MierApril 14, 2014The place is cute and the food and drinks are good, the staff is unfriendly and rude. There are too many restaurants/bars in NY to justify paying $15 a cocktail for someone to make you feel unwelcome.

"Jam packed at lunchtime. Good value for money, the portion sizes will satisfy your hunger. Chicken soup was quite hearty and cauliflower tacos tasty enough for a fast casual restaurant."
