Surprisingly good tacos and fun upbeat music. Great drinks. Friendly staff. Try the shrimp tacos, really good! Lobster tacos are great as were charred broccoli tacos. Yep I recommended a vegetarian option. It was that good. Also the chicken sliders and guajillo salsa were fantastic. Fun place. Especially for the Upper East Side.

Brilliant Mexican food! Everything was super delicious. The dishes are somewhat contemporary Mexican with new flavors and interesting bowls. The margaritas were excellent. Super recommended.

Had a great experience this evening. Food was visually appealing, fresh and delicious... Tortillas , Guacamole and Queso Dip were all great. Loved the Jamburrito Quesarrito and the Impossible Picadillo Taco. Tuna Ceviche Tostada was definitely my favorite: textures, flavors, absolutely perfect. Service was also very friendly, attentive and fast. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone .

Amazing!! We ordered tacos (chicken and lobster) and the nachos, the nachos and lobster tacos were soon good, definitely recommend. Tho the place is super tiny and some of the tables are really close to each other, the place has a nice vibe and the service is decent. Overall a great experience, would visit again.

Absolutely love the food here! I may be addicted, tbh. This is the lobster mac and cheese. To die for!

We went for lunch. The crispy fish taco is to die for. Great portion on a corn tortilla. It came with watermelon radish. The lobster taco was good. The mild flavors allow the essence of the lobster through. It came on a corn tortilla. The taco salad is great as well. At first the portion served seemed a bit small, however; the portion is a perfect size and amount. I definitely recommend this place.

Pretty good food. They have some healthy choices Usually pretty nice staff. its not crowded at lunch. Personally, I find it to loud to have a peaceful lunch. Why blare music at noon? Similarly at night, can’t comfortably sit at the bar or table and talk because of the volume. It’s not a disco, if we are here for the food, is it necessary to “create energy” or vibe with such loud music? Again the food is indeed good !
