Noah WeissJuly 6, 2018Great vibes, even better upscale Mexican food. Loved the tuna tostada, uni churros, tlayuda, and pork cheek carnitas. Inventive cocktails too. A bit pricey, but worth it.
- Gregory FisherJune 8, 2018Sleeper pick: Ramps Escabeche!! + Great space, service, and cocktails/mocktails! Preferred pork cheeks carnitas to al pastor chicken tacos & preferred the Caesar to tlayuda oxomoco (“Mexican pizza”).
AmateurConciergeOctober 28, 2018Millennial friendly Mexican spot with nicely done interiors. Must grab booth. Would skip the masa cakes at brunch (not sweet enough). Everything else was bomb. Dat breakfast burrito
Lili BazApril 10, 2022The blood orange spicy margarita was amazing! The tuna tostadas and chicken were also incredible. The chicken portion is huge, so you only need one or two small plates if you get that.
Sheetal JiwaniDecember 17, 2021Amazing amazing food. We were mind blown by the flavor and texture combinations. Everything was incredible but specifically the squash tacos and the tuna tostada and the chocolate cake.
The food (beet chorizo & lamb barbacoa tacos were my favorites) is excellent, yes, but you owe it to yourself to check out the extremely funky bathrooms.
Jamie DumbillJuly 12, 20202x2 tacos and a guac were a perfect lunch for two people. Beets tacos were the winner for us. Guac and Spicy strawberry marg in picture
Alex HunterSeptember 28, 2021One of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a while. Beet “Chorizo” Tacos, Caesar Salad, and Tuna Tostada were some of my favs. Come with a few friends and get after it!
Aja BrandmanMarch 22, 2019Absolutely love this place, new favorite spot for great food, drinks, and service. The manzanilla margarita was delicious as was the maitake mushroom taco. Fun assortment of salsas as well
Marc SchneebergerDecember 6, 2021Amazing experience, get tacos, chicken and guacamole for sure. Team is super friendly and drinks are great too!!!
Laurea de OcampoAugust 19, 2018The portions are big, interesting integration of local ingredients into Mexican cuisine. Don’t sleep on the mezcal selections.
StayNYC RentalsAugust 27, 2018Upscale Mexican restaurant serves bomb guacamole and frozen margaritas on a patio separated from the busy sidewalk by a thin, hip-height strip of greenery. Dog-friendly and perfect for people watching
jenny rockMay 9, 2019The lamb and pork cheek tacos are incredible. I want to come back with a bigger group to try one of the plates, but a pile of tacos for two is awesome.
Melissa YuSeptember 29, 2018The tlayuda= cheesy corn goodness. The whole branzino and steak tacos were a hit as well.
Rick NelsonNovember 10, 2018Everything here is incredible! Their shrimp ceviche tostada, lamb barbacoa tacos, and grilled branzino are all amazing choices.

- Not inexpensive, but delicious vegetable-forward Mexican food.
- Eduardo RamirezMay 28, 2022Everything was delicious but the chilaquiles and the carnitas tacos were standouts!!
