Chris OLeary: The coffee in the morning is great when you're sober. The Frito Pie in the evening is great when you're drunk. The coffee the next morning is great when you're hung over. Wash, rinse, repeat!

Beau Haugh: A rare example of perfection executed casually. I love this bar. They focus on agave and cane spirits, tiki and tiki-ish cocktails, and delicious, authentic Mexican food. Chill, but precise.

Daniel McDonough: This place is really good. The fried chicken is a must. The tequila with agave vinegar cocktail is delicious with just the right amount of spice. No reservations for under 6 people.
Emily Wilson: The fried chicken is absolutely delicious. If you go with a large party (7 or more), get a whole. As far as cocktails go, the tiger's whisker is awesome. Get some karaoke in, too! Super fun spot.
Savannah Petrick: karaoke rooms are a great value ($60/60 min for a room that fits 10 people)

Mexican Restaurant · Prospect Heights · 47 tips and reviews
Cécile: Very delicious and a nice setup. Get the seats along the window and people-watch. One of my favorite streets in Brooklyn.
Aleksey: One of the best Mexican restaurants ever! Their food is extremely good and creative, flavors are rich (although not as spicy as in Mexico), and their service is impeccable.
Allan Lopez: Strong margs, tacos and huevos rancheros are good. Don’t get the breakfast quesadilla, it’s extremely tiny.
