Great food! The place is pretty cool, with plenty of space. Their prices are acceptable, specially when considering the amount of food they serve! I tried the shrimp nachos and they were amazing, I'd totally recommend those! The staff was really friendly and the food was served pretty fast.
This place was excellent- delicious food and drinks, great ambiance, and good service. We started off with jalapeño margaritas while we waited which was powerful and the right amount of spice. The guacamole was good but could have used a bit more seasoning and spice. However the ingredients were fresh and tasty. I really enjoyed the chips- not too oily or salty. We opted to do a tequila tasting which was a great decision. The three selections were very good and smooth, would have been better if it was chilled but good nonetheless. The chicken burrito was very good- chicken pieces were tender and seasoned well. The tortilla was very soft, and the rice was cooked well. I like spice and their house hot sauce was amazing - completely tied the chicken and rice. Would definitely go back for the drinks and food!

The first time I came here over three years ago, I loved it. The food was great and the frozen margaritas were even better. Today was the first time I came back (partially because I ironically could not remember the name of the place) and the food was still delicious.
We ordered the trio guac (sample all three guacs) . Surprisingly, the rojo was my favorite - it was actually the one I wasn't going to consider if we had gone with a single flavor order. The grilled pineapple one was a bit of a let down because it was the traditional guac with a few pieces of grilled pineapple on top.
The service wasn't great tonight even though it wasn't very crowded. We got seated immediately without a reservation at 630 on a Monday. The server at first was very timely coming over to ask for our drink order and then app order, but seemed to forget us before we could put in our entree order. The drinks came fairly quickly (that's when we ordered the guac trio), but the it took forever to show up - I finally had to ask a different server to go check on it because we could find our server (shout out to the nice guy who wasn't on server duty that night, but still helped us out). They either forgot to put in our order or something else because after calling over the guy, they delivered an order of the traditional guac and not the trio (wasn't delivered by our server).
Once we finally got out food however, I was in food heaven. I ordered the pork burrito and it was awesome. The portion is also huge! They added half an avocado on top, that I don't remember them doing the first time. I had to take half the burrito home because I couldn't finish it all.
Drink: frozen mango margarita, passion fruit Marg on the rocks, a beer
Apps: trio guac sampler
Entrees: pork burrito, pork quesadilla, steak burrito.
Despite the service, I will come back here - that rojo guac calls to me.
Hell's Kitchen (neighborhood) is full of casual restaurants like this. The food here is always good, ingredients are fresh and the margaritas are strong. The chips and salsa are free. Waiters are handsome. Lighting for food photos are good. Honestly, I have no complaints.
Delish food! We had margaritas (quite strong and sour), octopus, fajitas steak and mahi tacos. All good quality delish! Guacamole with grilled pineapple is dressing. Too bad they don’t have home made dessert
The food was good, but I didn’t eat anything that was absolutely incredible. The chips were really good and the pineapple guacamole was delicious! But nothing to tell your friends about. I’d eat here again, but it wouldn’t be my first choice.
Dishes were made to perfection. Presentation was beautiful and the taste is balanced very well. They even have great vegan options.
This is one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in NYC and have been here 4-5 times. The food is always tasty and filling. I really come here for the margaritas, they have a good selection of flavors - both frozen and on the rocks. Ever since they’ve combined menus and started serving Hell’s Kitchen’s food out of Rita’s (next door), I feel that the chefs are shy with using spices and the bartenders shy with adding tequila to the margaritas. Overall excellent food, their music playlist slaps, and vibes were immaculate.
My husband visited it last summer during a work trip just because of the name (had no idea what to expect). He loved it and raved how we would have to try it if we ever visited. He loved NY so much that we planned a trip over spring break vacation. Hell's Kitchen did not disappoint. We started with salmon ceviche. The portion was generous and full of flavor. I had read reviews about the brussel sprout taco being amazing, so I had to give it a try. Blew my mind it was so good. Hubby ordered the enchiladas and couldn't get over how good the sauce was. It really was above and beyond. Our teenage son said the short rib taco was the best he had ever had. If we are ever in NYC again, we will definitely be back.
We decided on this restaurant after reading positive Yelp reviews and it didn't disappoint us. My friends and I ordered the quesadilla, salad, salmon entree, and trip of tacos. The flights of margaritas were cute but we waited a long time apparently for clean glasses. (The restaurant wasn't even full.🤨) Service was ok not excellent, as the waitress seemed to be extra tired. She was sitting and eating as we left.
Very Pricey. Drinks were great. Friendly staff. We experimented with the brussel sprouts tacos, such a disappointment, dont try those. Try other tacos on the menu.
Really cool place! Great ambiance. Came here with a friend for dinner and drinks. She got a regular margarita (it was large! But a little too salty for my taste) and I got the devils nightcap (aka a habanero lychee margarita)-sweet and spicy! We got the nachos and fajitas. The nachos came with like 3 different kinds of cheeses and an added surprise of Brussel sprouts. Really delicious if you like Brussel sprouts!! The fajitas had portobello mushrooms in it, which I had never seen before, along with the usual pepper and onions. Came with a side of rice and beans. All in all, great place. Will definitely come back!
Had a great time in this amazing restaurant. The food was great! Staff were very friendly. Atmosphere was amazing. Highly recommend their Tacos. Restaurant located in a great neighborhood in NY! It’s less than 10 min walk to Times Square. Overall we had great time. We will definitely go back and eat in this restaurant.
Omg! You can tell a Mexican restaurant by first taste of their chips and salsa, 5 stars. You have to get their margarita trio, 5 stars. I had their trio tacos and my sister had their steak fajitas, 5 stars. We’re from MD and DE and we would come back just to go here, bc 5 stars!
Cool place with nice ambience. There is a sitting area and the bar, the latter is much fub. Bartenders are really helpful and make you feel welcome. Prices are ok
The best place in Hell’s Kitchen area for tacos and margaritas hands down. The food is excellent, the staff is super friendly, and there’s always someone to strike up a conversation with at the bar.
Order a spicy margarita if you go.
Best Mexican food we had in NYC. The ambiance and service were exceptional as well. Definitely try the guacamole trio.
