Sarah Cho: Fresh and delicious guac w/warm (possibly made on the spot tortilla strips) and steak frites was perfect w/wonderfully garlicky chimichurri on the side and crisp well salted fries. We'll be back!
Bre: Love the vibe of this place — somehow both European and Latin American. Oh and definitely go for the red sangria! It has a great orange flavor.
Augie W: Just had excellent salad, burger, and steak frites.

:Danielle Strle: the Sopa Tortilla is verrrrrrry special. Liquid green enchiladas w perfect tortilla strips IN THE BEST WAY.
Meredith Powers: the huevos divorciados are the perfect brunch choice for when you just can't commit to one sauce... and the sangria is always delicious. Lots of vegetarian choices, too (for brunch, lunch, and dinner)
Mark H: I usually say, see for yourself. Screw that! you need to go, be impregnated by the most delicious food baby you can dream of, and let the night (or afternoon) slip away with a pitcher of margarita

Cristina F-M: the spicy pork tacos are my favorite, followed by chiles rellenos. go salsa verde over red salsa. the coca cola they sell is the legit sugary kind. fruit and veg sold here is the best in the hood.
Tim Vetter: Weird food club score: Get a quesadilla con huitlacoche aka Mexican truffle aka corn smut, not easy to find in NYC. $4. http://www.brooklyntheborough.com/2010/08/the-dish-uncovering-huitlacoche/
Time Out New York: Try the flor de calabaza quesadilla. Fresh masa is griddled, then topped with mounds of sautéed squash blossoms, cotija cheese, crema and lettuce. It’s one of our #100best dishes and drinks of 2011. Read more.

Angie: Queso fundido app is to die for as are the enchiladas suizas which were not too spicy and super creamy. Can't wait to come back for brunch!
Vanessa V.: Do yourself a favor and go to Fonda for brunch. Holy guacamole. Try the rancheros divorciados and ask them to scramble your eggs. And don't forget to ask for extra tortillas for your beans and guac!
Ingrid Stenquist: Get the braised brisket, carne Asada or pork adobo. Everything is amazing. Drinks strooooong! Tres leche divine.

Don Lehman: The tortas are amazing. Perfect pillowy bread. I dream about these. The pomegranate in the guacamole is a really good touch.
Noah M: Just actually told the staff that the Chilaquiles Mole Scramble was "wonderful". I've *never* done this anywhere before. So good.
Lisa Finn: Best fish tacos in Brooklyn- but be wary, that chipotle aioli has some serious bite!
