On the bright side, the Carnitas were absolutely delicious, and the Carne Asada with mushrooms was also a standout dish. As for drinks, I’m a margarita snob, and honestly the regular margaritas were way better than the Cadillac margaritas. Food: 3 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4

I wasn’t too hungry, so I ordered a bowl of guacamole served with pita chips and corn tortillas. It was fresh, with onion and cilantro, but nothing special—just a very standard guac. (I’ll admit I’m picky about Mexican food, having tried some of the best spots in Mexico City, so take that as a judgmental note! My vegetarian friend ordered an enchilada and was satisfied, while another friend got a cheese fondue-style dish, served sizzling with toppings, which he enjoyed. The ambience was pleasant, and the service was good. That said, I was hoping for some street-style tacos, but the menu didn’t have them, and the server couldn’t confirm. Overall, it was an okay experience—my guacamole was fine but very basic. Food: 3 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4 Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $20–30

The food was amazing and the drinks were even better.. sat at the bar and the bartender was soo nice and helpful with recommendations. To start we had the Al pastor tacos and Croquetas. The mojito was so refreshing I had two andthe watermelon margarita was delicious as well. The enchiladas de mole were made to perfection with the side of sweet plantainand esquite it definitely hit the spot. For dessert had the tres leches and a caramel flan both were wonderful! Endless to saythe food and drinks were a 100/10 and will definitely come back!!!

The chips and guacamole are always excellent (try it spicy! and the enchiladas suizas are the best in New York City. The flavor is so rich.
