"This Mexican restaurant in East Harlem is stuffed with huichol cats and rainbow piñatas, and it’s run by a chef who’s been known to wear a lucha libre mask while on duty. A cluttered homage to Mexico City, El Kallejon is always ready for a party, with a lineup of dishes that include escargot in pasilla sauce, tostadas topped with baby shark, and an incredible ceviche served in a martini glass. If it’s warm out, get a table on the plant-filled back patio and drink an excessively garnished tequila cocktail. " - bryan kim, neha talreja, kenny yang, sonal shah
