RajFebruary 27, 2010Fish taco horribly mis-spiced, ceviche also borderline unpleasant. But shrimp taco was spot-on, grilled ear of corn also tasty. Service not great. Overall a bit disappointing.
Iker AHSeptember 25, 2011Overrated, underwhelming, bad Mexican proxy. I'm Mexican and a) We aren't assholes like the guys there; b) Real Mexican food is way better than that; c) We are friendly. Skip this place, trust me
Keilon LawrenceAugust 2, 2013Slow servers at 4 o'clock on Friday but the margarita is alright for $6
Matthew GordonSeptember 5, 2012Food was good but my to-go order took over 20 minutes. If you were hoping for speed, I'd try somewhere else.
Long line, rude servers, and subpar food. But I keep coming back. One plus- they make off menu items if they have the ingredients.
Aaron MarksJune 6, 2013Waited 40 minutes for take out sandwich at lunch, repeatedly ignored by staff when asking status of my order. Do NOT recommend.
Adam Berlinsky-SchineJune 18, 2017Worst service I've ever experienced. Every single staff member was outwardly hostile to us.
Adriana NovaApril 18, 2010It's hard to find decent Mexican food in NYC but Esquina comes really close...
Alexandra HancockJune 18, 2012Never ever ever EVER come here during lunch or anytime you don't want to wait an extremely long time for a sandwich.

"Big, hearty burritos with satisfying meat fillings and fresh toppings. The tortillas are cooked with corn oil for a more authentic taste. Dos Toros is the indie Chipotle; definitely worth a visit!"

"Not cheap, but fun! Bottomless brunch = classic NYC move; evening drink (margs! Mezcal!) + 🤤 Housemade guac also a 👌 choice. Sip 'n snack on a summer's eve before walking west for sunset/highline!"

"Try the veal schnitzel with a glass of white wine recommended by your waiter, or go there for brunch and enjoy perfectly poached eggs with their succulent rösti (fried potato patties)."
Summer Izkovich - 8.9
"Delicious. Light yet luxurious. Perfect portions and reasonable prices. Salted creme brûlée, banana chocolate, and raspberry. Will be back."
Julia M - 8.6
"Salads, grilled cheese, the slushy cocktail, ango shots. One of the best bars in town"
