Sameepa ShettyJuly 5, 2015Mole poblano chicken,assorted tacos & everything else on the menu is great!! Authentic taste. Great service. Can get humid in here. Come with friends for casual dining.
LaurenMay 17, 2015Worth the trek to East Harlem. Why doesn't this place get more hype? Good guac & fish tacos.- Fernando LoboApril 3, 2017Frozen margaritas are small and tasteless. The waitress could be friendlier. We were here less than 12 hours ago and she didn't even acknowledge. Bistec encebollado, burritos, guac are great
Ryan Scott TandyOctober 16, 2011Don't listen to the haters, this place rocks! Have the fajitas and a Negro Modelo!
The restaurant grade has to do with their equipment,with would require abhor kitchen renovation, not sanitation.
- Guha ArunkumarJune 10, 2017Really not a big fan of this place. Head over to burritos y mas/taco bell/el paso in harlem instead. Extremely mediocre.
Kira RochaJuly 5, 2011Octopus salad wasn't fresh, tastes like from the can. Tamale was dry. Tacos on the other hand are very good.
G VelasquezOctober 23, 2011Wasn't impressed...lamb over-cooked, too much going on with the spices, watery margaritas. Just...ehh
JenRey69August 3, 2016I have to say the food used to be tasty, now I can't taste any Mexican flavor. The food has become very bland and the service sucks. The waitstaff act like they're doing you a favor. I won't be back!

"Love this place! Sexy vibe. Start w/ the summer vegetable salad. It's delicious & healthy. Then, peeky toe crab & corn fritters, mushroom tacos and salmon entree. The romansco sauce is really good."

"One of my favorite places to get lost in the city. An amazing Oasis in the middle of the cement jungle. Always something for everyone. Make sure to go further in the park and get away from tourists."
