- This place us by far the best guacamole and chips in town. You can choose hot, medium (we always go for this one) or mild for the guacamole and the chips are always warm. Frozen margaritas is a must!
GETLOWNYCJune 3, 2015They have great deals on Tues. They participate in the local restaurant program #GetLow that gets 20% off your food and they have Taco Tuesdays. Together a meal can cost less than most local fast food
Come here for their margaritas and their guac! Their flautas are tasty too! This place always gets packed, so try to get there early or make a reservation. Sit out on Stone Street during summer :)

MischaApril 13, 2015People tend to come to these places to drink margaritas and tequila shots, and tend to forget food (unless it is guac&chips) but go for the Tampiqueña steak, it is worth it, said the Mexican.
I used to live in California and this is the only Mexican I've found in New York that meets expectations (granted NYC prices). Guacamole, fish tacos, chicken mole, fajitas all excellent
Dinner for two? Start with chips and salsa trio. Guacamole is unnecessary. Flautas right after, which are my favorite, followed by the Gorditas. Cactus fruit margaritas should be endless throughout...
Rishi SatsangiSeptember 11, 2014Its a bit touristy, as it sits on Stone St. in the financial district. But the food is good, think upscale Chevy's. It's about the best quality americanized mexican you can get. no felíz compleaños
Nikki VargasMay 25, 2012Although this place is downtown, nestled in Stone Street, to this day it is the BEST mojito I have had (and trust me, I've had some great ones). The food is great but the mojitos seal the deal.
Jennifer VelazquezDecember 19, 2012The tortilla soup was really good, their single generous portion of guac is good to share for 2, and their white sangria was pretty good too. I'll def be back here to try their other dishes.
Brigitte PerezAugust 22, 2015Great place for happy hour. Passion fruit margarita, shrimp tacos,guacamole. Burger is huge. Good selection of music.
Colleen SheaDecember 29, 2016Amazing margaritas and chips and guacamole!! No reservations and you'll prob wait for a table, but grab a seat at the bar if you can!
Nate BeattyJuly 10, 2015Good guac and margaritas if you can manage to stand the tourists, stereotypical Wall St crowd, and equally obnoxious prices.
Michael NataleFebruary 7, 2017Not the best service but it was busy. Had a very large party and everyone enjoyed the food n drink. Burrito bowl was solid and the Margherita and guacamole were on point.
Grab a table outside or a seat at the bar, Order a fresh patron margarita on the rocks. Medium to hot guac. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the fuck out life in #nyc
Best guacamole in downtown Manhattan. If you like it spicy, ask for extra jalepenos - They can be a bit stingy. Margaritas and micheladas are not to be missed either!
Lea CeasrineJune 30, 2016Margarita on the rocks is seriously incredible: gin and tequila, peppers, musky salt. Tacos and fajitas are equally good and humongo.
Probably my favorite place to eat in the city. The margaritas are a little pricey, but they're strong. Would highly recommend the Mexican Corn. Delicious, $5 & it's easily splittable with someone
Lyn HastingsOctober 7, 2014The app portion chicken chimichanga was perfect for lunch. Fun grungy atmosphere, much needed to offset the financial district crowd. Will return!
Sarah HermsmeyerJune 8, 2017Great guacamole (we got medium) and chips. Bit of a wait for food. Plan to spend at least an 1.5 here. Chicken nachos were delicious.
Jessica de OliveiraMarch 25, 2018If you are looking to get some good vibes before a night out, then this is the spot. Always lively with great margaritas.
Umair ZiaNovember 5, 2015The guacamole is pretty good, just get them to add extra jalapenos and lime juice. The entrees are alright. Chimichanga, quesadillas are delicious but nothing stands out. Everyone should be satisfied.
Chester FrankJune 8, 2019Chips and Guacamole, All of the Tacos and the enchilada! You cant eat something bad here. Everything is amazing.
Pavel KarfikFebruary 13, 2020A bit more expensive than others but we've been very surprised by the food and the huge margaritas they offer :)
Before 5:30 Margaritas are $5 and Guacamole is $6 (at the bar). Order the former frozen w/ salt and the latter "spicy", and try to do it from the awesome bartender Paco
The Guacamole is a delight for a group and the chili is very welcoming. I hope the restuarant repairs fast from hurricane Sandy!
Stop by for a $5.00 Margarita between 2:30-5:30 and 1/2 off the BEST guacamole. You will come back for more!
ChiChi212.comApril 11, 2011They have the best margaritas in Manhattan. Period. Also Monday is taco night and for $19.95 you get one frozen margarita and unlimited tacos. Yes. UNLIMITED tacos. Read more
Ben HollandsworthSeptember 2, 2013Great guac, decent food. Met my gf here. BUT.. They charge for chips and salsa, an absolute joke of a policy in the Mexican restaurant world.
Hannah MNovember 6, 2016If you ask for a small modification (ex: leave out x ingredient) they'll alter the entire dish and charge you full price without apologies.
blood oranges' true calling in life were to be turned into margaritas. get a blood orange margarita!
Amy MixaJuly 5, 2016Get the spicy guac (single is perfect for 2 or 3 people) and the frozen margaritas!
Rick ValenzuelaAugust 1, 2014Sit outside on Stone Street, NYC's cousin to San Francisco's Belden Lane. Big bonus points for being dog friendly (outside)
striderSeptember 17, 2013wow! great food. locals after work meet up. loud crowd. must try the corn side, amazing.
CompassApril 15, 2014Hang out at this Mexican restaurant where the games are always on and guacamole stations are always ready for you.
Jeeleighanne DuboiusMay 31, 2015The music here is awesome. You can either sit inside or outside. Food is good to
Burcu KaradayıSeptember 23, 2016This street is full with many restaurant. Nachos are really delicious
Larry LaBurrJune 19, 2015Okay food and okay drinks. Love the atmosphere and outdoor seating, and the service is great! Not cheap.- Rick ValenzuelaJuly 6, 2014Margaritas are superb here (can't speak for the frozen ones though), fresh lime juice and not too sweet.
Lori K. http://www.lkpheartsfood.netJanuary 10, 2014Guac is some of the best I've ever had. Blood orange margarita is sour AND just sweet enough.
Carlos MenesesOctober 8, 2010One of the best places in the to get some Mexican grub in a very social environment. Take a seat outside in good weather and enjoy the city :D
Love the food but can't figure out why the staff seems so miserable here. The mysery is as consistent as the delicious food! Oh well, it is what it is. There is always good music playing.
S MOctober 21, 2017Food isn't anything special but their margarita is awesome, get either strawberry or blood orange flavor.
Downtown AllianceAugust 29, 2010Rustic Mexican feel. Tableside guacamole prep - and it's GREAT. Killer margaritas, too. You can get our free Downtown dining guide at http://www.downtownny.com/mapsguides/
Cayla WomackJuly 12, 2015The ambiance is great along with the service and the guacamole is on point.
