EB: The best Pomegranate margarita I've found. Uses the real thing with real seeds. Read more.
The Wall Street Journal: Try the black truffle quesadilla or lobster tacos. The trio of guacamole, which includes a hot chipotle version and one with mango, apples and and pomegranate topping, is also a good bet. Read more.
Martin: La Paloma and la flaca are the best margaritas on the menu. Try the pomegranate guacamole as well!

Lindsay C: Great guacamole - highly recommend the one with pomegranate seeds. Do be warned that the restaurant is small and the service is quite slow.
AmateurConcierge: Solid mezcal and pulque based drinks and solid Mexican fare make this tiny bar a worthwhile visit. Guac with pomegranate seeds and crab tostada were both solid. I liked the spicy Oaxaca Express.
Zach Hamed: Cozy spot in LES. Get all the tacos (hanger steak, chicken, fish), guacamole with pomegranate, and ask the bartender to make you a custom drink.

Elizabeth Pearson: Black truffle quesadilla is out of this world! Also, try the medium guacamole; it has pomegranate and pineapple. Definitely my new favorite place in the UES!
Paige C: The ambiance, service and food were all outstanding. We had a lovely waiter who was fun and engaging. Don't miss the mango & pomegranate guacamole mixed with any combination of homemade tacos. YUM!
Majoros Kriszta: Great Margaritas (my fave is: De la Calle), amazing (!!!) guacamole with pomegranate, incredible ceviche, quesadillas, churros.The best Mexican fine dining I've ever had! Highly recommended in NYC!!!

Allison Kim: Sour cherry rice is relish! Try the chicken pomegranate stew and the lamb shank for entrees! Bakalava is to die for.
Leo Fuentealvah: The chicken stew with pomegranates and nuts is very delicious! The beef stew has something on top, I think it's a truffle, be ready for an explosion of flavor in your mouth!
Rahmin Pavlovic: Ask for tahdig (sounds more like ta'dik). Not on the menu, bit they serve it. Delicious!

Greg Bodenair: Try the Neroli Chocolate Tart - Final dessert course: "the tartness of the raw pomegranate perfectly complements the smoothness of the chocolate"
Tasting Table: Don't miss the Mediterranean Greek-Yogurt Parfaits loaded with whole-wheat couscous, dried apricots, toasted pistachios and pomegranate seeds. You can even recreate at home: http://bit.ly/ydglew
Eater: Boulud Sud is a rare Southern European spot to remember that the Mediterranean extends to North Africa and the Levant, serves great harira (Moroccan lentil soup) and chicken tagine. Read more.
