"Our cook Kevin splits his time working the line at Bonnie's and at his family's restaurant, New Mexico Place, about a mile away. It always hits for family meal and take out when I can't be bothered to cook." - Calvin Eng

Havent been here in years but food is delicious and very cozy setting. Perfect for date night or family night.

Nice Mexican spot. Food was great for what I ordered, Mexican burger with Jalapeños and fries. Didn't know too much about pricing as I was with company who paid, however I can say that for the time I was there (after 5pm Onward) beers were $5 a piece. Would definitely return there again. It would've been a five star but the staff mostly speak Spanish and a little English which makes it a little hard to understand at time what they are saying. Still a great spot!

I haven't been more disappointed with late night tacos in my life. No flavor, at all!! And the up charge on tacos is crazy here. While the service was okay and the place looked nice, I definitely do not recommend this place. You are better off going to a food truck. We came here to attempt to dine in, and we were told we couldn't stay because they closed in less than an hour but we could get take out, which we did. This is more of a reminder for me in the future to not come to this place. If you don't like spices and flavor, then you'll love it here.

BEWARE ordered birria tacos and was told I have to pay $7 extra to get the birria dip? So many better options in the area. Never again

The restaurant closes in the morning so it gave us a great convenience. The food were ok. The shrimp was over cooked. For the price, it’s okay.

Really nicely prepared food! Fresh yet with those proper layers of flavor that come from that extra time of preparation. They have an extensive menu with very authentic ingredients. The space is large enough to bring a large group. Prices are good and they are open late. I'll be going back there often.

New Mexico Place hands down is one of the best Mexican restaurants out there. Fresh ingredients and full of flavor.

If you want Americanized Mexican food (TexMex), this is the best place for it. I had a barbacoa and lengua taco: it was topped with shredded lettuce, tomato and some weird watery white sauce. Both meats were over cooked, dry and too salty. Also they did not give you any hot sauce (salsa verde or salsa roja) with the tacos. But they did give me one single half of a lime wedge for both tacos (so generous!). I also got a bierria quesadilla thinking, like all other places that serve bierria tacos/quesadilla/etc that it would come with consommé, but alas you actually have to pay extra for it. Never will I ever order from this place again, especially for the price point. It's not at all cheap for what you actually get. It's really a glorified taco bell. I'd much rather eat a crunch wrap supreme from taco bell for a fraction of the cost than any item I got here.

This place is a hidden gem. The food is SO good. Probably best salsa I've ever had. Everything is super fresh and homemade. The chips you can tell were fried just before you got them. They come warm! I recommend the burritos. They're large and packed with meat!

Julia G.

The food is so good and such a great price. Everything I've tried has been delicious. I also love they're open so late!

Very authentic Mexican place. You know it's real when I can't understand half the menu. Food was great and in huge portions. I got the quesadilla and my friend got a burrito bowl. Most of their food items are with corn tortillas so just an fyi. They serve you some chips and salsa while you wait. I don't usually give 5 stars but My friend and I stayed an extra almost half an hour after we were done eating to talk and chat and they kept filling our water and did not even bring the check to rush us. I definitely appreciated that!!

What it lacks in ambience, it makes up for in flavor, and at the end of the day, isn't that what we really want from New Mexico Place? The sauces and their seasonings, it all comes together here, and the price is a value in the area. At summer nights, it's a great place to sit outside. I don't drink, but other people looked Ike they were enjoying their sangria.

3.5 stars******* The burrito was decent but there was nothing particularly notable about it. With tax, the steak burrito was about $15ish, which was slightly annoying because it was relatively small and I was still hungry after. I would only come back again if I was seriously craving a burrito and had nowhere else to go. If the burrito was bigger and cheaper, my review would be higher. The restaurant itself is usually really dark and empty, so you may prefer ordering your food to go. However, there's also a limited amount of outdoor seating.

Came here with friends after a night out partying. They're open really late which is cool. But honey, it's 2022. Why are you still cash only? You know damn well people (especially inebriated people) aren't looking too closely for "cash only" signs and at 4 in the morning in this neighborhood there aren't too many banks around. Forcing people to take cash out of your stupid ATM for a $3 fee is just greedy as hell. The three stars is for the convenience tbh. But this is the other thing, we were a group of 5 and the complimentary chips and salsa they put on the table was literally a serving for one person. The bowl of salsa looked as if it had already been eaten out of, that's how skimpy they were. Need a better visual? Imagine going to Red Lobster with a group of 5 and them only giving you 2 biscuits. Then we asked for a little more and they charged us for it, gave us the exact same basket of chips and bowl of salsa but it was actually full the second time around. Good marketing ploy to get people to buy more but also just really grimey. Two of my friends got the shrimp quesadilla and the consome de birria on the side for dipping. Basic. One got the New Mexico burger. Also basic. Another got three tacos, they looked pretty full of meat which was nice but once he started sobering up he realized they were also.. you guessed it! Basic. I got the nachos de carnitas and a tamal verde. I've had way better. I then tried the consome my friends had and wow, super flavorless and basiccccc. Just bland all around. Mine is 10x better. Oh and lastly? The music in that place had us wanting to jump off the roof. I've never been to a Mexican restaurant that plays nothing but Caucasian hits. You can immediately pick up on the demographic they're catering to. But then again, what do you expect from an extremely gentrified neighborhood?

Want authentic Mexican without the airfare? Excellent authentic Mexican home-cooking right here. Homemade tortillas are incredible and worth the wait -- they hand-make each one!! (And they put store-bought/pre-made tortillas to shame). Chicken Tinga is fresh, flavorful and tender. Super gracious and grateful owners too. It feels good to support a family business like this.

Hubby and I was looking for a quick bite to eat after a nite of comedy, and decided to check this place out. The shrimp tacos were delicious and very fresh chicken tacos were delish also. We'll definitely be back..

Good food. ALWAYS late for deliveries. Listen, this place has decent food. But holy cow man... ALWAYS late. We've ordered from here like 40 times and they've constantly been late by like 30 minutes -lto around 2 hours. Calling for updates leads to the standard, "its on the way". We actually realized they accept orders when their shop isn't even open yet. (We live nearby and decided to check if they were open... they weren't. We watched them open the shop 20 minutes after after accepting our order. They've also waited numerous times until after the delivery time to inform us that they aren't actually open and then we get notified from wherever we ordered from that they're actually closed. Again... good food, but the delivery is the worst in the city so far. Especially for only being about 10 blocks away from us.

*For Delivery* Was tired of the run of the mill, americanized mexican fare like Dos Toros and Chipotle. Was looking for takeout and a really good elote. New Mexico Place was on my list after filtering what came the fastest - less than 30 minutes. I saw they also had birria tacos and quesadillas - jackpot. I ordered the Birria taco and consome** with elote and a tamale, my husband ordered the chicken quesadilla with rice and beans and my toddler just wanted some straight up rice and beans. The food was hot and fresh. The birria tacos were excellent; in all honesty, I have no basis for comparison since this was my first time having it but it was quite good (even decided to try the birria quesadilla which was also a hit). The elote was perfect and inhaled it shamelessly without offering anyone else a bite (No Regrets). My husband is quite fond of quesadillas and said it was wonderfully seasoned and tasted great - he was also really happy with the large portion. My kid loves rice and beans so no complaints from her either. We really like this place and have happily added it to our list of reliables. ** Birria is time consuming to make so one might wince at $7 for a cup of consome and $4.50 for 1 taco but I appreciate the labor involved in making it and think its worth it.

I kid you not, the best Mexican food, in my opinion, in NYC. The salsa and guacamole are out of this world fresh, flavorful, and delicious. I always get the steak tacos so I can't say anything else about the food except those are phenomenal. The only complaint I have, which is super minor, would be that I wish they could also offer hard shell for tacos but for now it's easy enough to crunch up chips and put it in my taco for that crunch I crave. Literally come here (RUN) and then thank me after.

They refused to deliver to my address after they accepted my order on Grubhub! I was waiting for 1 1/2 called the restaurant and the man said no one is going over there! They said they don't come to this building. They never called me to say anything! I had to get refund and went somewhere else to buy food. I had people waiting for their food. Horrible service! Don't order from them they're not reliable!

Dustin M.

Yelp
After waiting for our order for over 2 hours and getting the run around every time we called for updates, we were told our order was never received. How do you tell us our order is out for delivery multiple times and then claim our order was never received? The order was placed on New Mexico Places own website . Save your time and money and try one of the other Mexican spots in the neighborhood that have better food and service.

If you want Americanized Mexican food, this is the best place for it. I had a barbacoa and lengua taco and it was topped with shredded lettuce, tomato and some weird watery white sauce. No cilantro or onions in site on the tacos. Both meats were over cooked, dry and too salty. Also they did not give you any hot sauce (salsa verde or salsa roja) with the tacos or any of the other items I ordered. But they did give me one single half of a lime wedge for both tacos (so generous!). I also got a bierria quesadilla thinking, like all other places that serve bierria tacos/quesadilla/etc that it would come with consommé, but alas you actually have to pay extra for it. The quesadilla was fried to a hard crisp (did I order a Gordita) where consumme' would have saved it in the most forgiving way. Never will I ever order from this place again, especially for the price point. It's not at all cheap for what you actually get. It's really a glorified taco bell. I'd much rather eat a crunch wrap supreme from taco bell for a fraction of the cost than any item I got here. Mew Mexico Mexican food is what you get from here. If you want authentic Mexican food, this is not the place for it.

I had their delivery for the first time last night. I got a cheese quesadilla and chips and guacamole. It was exactly what I wanted for a reasonable price. My only complaint is that it took about an hour for it to arrive.

This place charges outrageous prices. $4.75 per taco. It's insane. I'm all about supporting my financial brown brothers or whatever but this is ridiculous. Puta whateva

This was probably another one of the worst "Mexican" foods I've ever had. I think the chef is Chinese and use Chinese style pork. I don't eat Chinese food and to my surprise all the "Carnitas" I ordered was like Pork fried rice pork. It was disgusting and I had to immediately regurgitate after consuming just a few bites. They get one star not just because the food is terrible but also because I was told they won't deliver to my building and that they would make an exception for me since I paid via Grubhub but that I had to come all the way to the Street to pick up my food. After feeling completely apprehensive, I said "That's fine, I don't mind going to the street to pick it up" Is it because I'm in the projects? I don't know. All I can is, it's not what I was even nearly expecting. I've had terrible Mexican food but this one probably takes the crown for the worst kind. Who the heck puts a few small pieces of fried pork in a taco and call it a taco? They're extremely skimpy with the meat. The Chimichanga was exactly a replica of an egg roll, it taste just like an egg roll too. I won't be ordering here ever again. It's just not my style.

Wow, New Mexico Place was really incredible. Atmosphere is very unique and fun. I am very happy that we bought Huarache, this was one of their finest dishes, very flavorful and delicious. The crew was fabulous, literally every one. Fabulous place to visit with family, friends, and significant others.

This was the first Mexican place I found when I first moved to NYC in 2011 and it's still the best! They have incredible salsa and I'm also a big fan of the tortas and tostadas. Really good prices and fast delivery too. The only thing I don't love is that their tortilla chips are often a little burned.

Mihael K.

Yelp
I've both ordered delivery from here and went in person. It's definitely more of a delivery place, since when I went (at typically peak hours on a weekend), we were the only people there. Both experiences were excellent though and I wouldn't hesitate to go in person again. The food that I've had has always been delicious. The portions were huge. I've tried the steak burrito and the chips with guacamole and neither were disappointing. The burrito was one of the best I've had in ages. Service in person was decent enough. Delivery is always fast. I'd definitely recommend coming here if you are in the area. It's open really late too which is a plus, especially when you are craving Mexican at 3am!

Jesse O.

Yelp
I want to start by saying the food is amazing here. The owner decided after an hour for a delivery not to deliver because 1 time in the past week the delivery took more than 2 hours to get to me and i fell asleep. The restaurant is 2 blocks away. I would order 3 times a week. Now he is getting no business. If I were you. Don't order from here. It's over priced and the owner should apologize not refuse a delivery

As I walked on Graham av. I was hungry 5pm, it was time to get lunch and while I can have many hours without eating, when hunger hits me, I have to eat. I walked into this place because it was right there as I was walking looking for a place to eat. Pure coincidence?... the place I wanted to eat would be serving food at 5.30 PM but I didn't wanna wait, so why not launch into a new place?... I like to order Chicken Burritos from Mexican Restaurants because is the one item that it never fails. Guess what, my tasty prediction was right on point ! The Chicken Burrito was excellent, it over exceeded my expectation in taste and it was only $9.00 ! :) (Ever since I paid 18.00 for a burrito in NYC, I always compare my burritos to that one. $18.00 for 1 burrito was a lot but the taste was great). Anyhow, back to the burrito here it has a unique flavor as taste, the chicken was very well cooked and seasoned like if it was homemade. I would absolutely come back and try different dishes here. Just so you know the entry sauce with Nacho chips the waiter gives you, taste delicious but the sauce portion is not enough for all the chips, so I asked her for more sauce to which I had to pay $3.00 for more sauce. I felt cheaped out like those restaurant that don't give me enough beans for the rice.

Ellie T.

Yelp
So first off the chips, guacamole and salsa are great!! and I will come back even if its only to get that. It's all homemade which is great - even the chips, and it tastes fresh! I ordered fish tacos that were okay.. I do think they were a little bit too dry and it felt like a fish mince and not fish fillet or chunks, which I don't like, but I'll definitely try the steak ones next time! I am not sure if they have cocktails since I did not see it on the menu and I didn't get a drinks menu.. Overall, the staff was very nice, the orders came out quickly and I would come back!

Yelp
Literally *the* worst restaurant I have ordered from in NYC, across every metric To start with, they wanted to nickle and dime me for every possible thing on my enchiladas. Rice and beans? $3. Jalapenos? $1.50. Hot sauce? $1.50 The person I spoke to on the phone very clearly seemed to not care at all about my order. Although, he did repeat it back to me - including the "no onions" I requested, because I am allergic to them Although they deliver, they refused to deliver to my, under a mile away. So I get home, open it, and find this awful slop There is no sauce on the enchiladas. There's onions all over it, a blob of sour cream, and a ROTTING avocado. I call them, and the guy on the phone tries to claim that I didn't ask for no onions. I recorded the call; I did ask, and he did tell me there would be none. When he hangs me to the manager, the phone reception on their end mysteriously starts to cut out. I try to explain the situation to him, and all him to deliver a meal that I can actually eat, and I can't make out almost any of his reply. This is the slop they prepared for me, for $13. Please, for your own sake, avoid eating here at all costs.

Andrew B.

Yelp
Vile people and vile food. Hands down the worst experience I have had ordering in NYC in years. I ordered a chimichanga and it came COLD. Not only that, but the guy must have dropped it (See picture). I called to complain and they have the nerve to tell me it couldn't be cold and when I asked for a refund they gave me lip service and told me they would never deliver to me again. Good riddance! If they keep treating people like this they won't exist much longer, there are too many places (literally anywhere else) that I can get better food and service.

Tim R.

Yelp
I hate writing negative one star reviews but I also hate waisting money on food that's not good. Ordered the chicken fajita plate. The chicken was like rubber and way salty. Not only was it nasty but there was also a very small portion of chicken. Just a ton for beans and rice that were also subpar. How do you mess up something simple like chicken fajita and server it. Never again. Side Note 1 - my intention of this review is not to damage the business by any means. I'm sure the people that work here are hard workers and have family's to support. My intention is to hopefully have them improve the quality of the food, so that future customers are happy with what they paid for and keep coming back over and over again. A win win for all. Side Note 2 - looked at many of their 5 start reviews and many of them are from users with only a few other reviews, no profile picture, and small amount of Yelp friend. All signs of fake reviews.

Have had pretty decent orders from here before but this was beyond the pale. Delivery took almost 2 hours and the food arrived cold and congealed. Avoid.

Justine C.

Okay so I came here last night, I got the New Mexico salad, and a extra side of guacamole, and a frozen margarita to go, guacamole is 5, salad 13, drink 9. Is 27.. why was my total 39 and he didn't give me a itemized receipt, something doesn't make sense! I have been scammed. The salad was really good but I am so turned off about being robbed for 40 dollars for a salad and a drink. Also charged me 3 dollars for burnt ass chips after. I normally never complain but this place is SHADY AND OVER CHARGED ME.

Greg K.

Yelp
Started coming here before and after the renovation. Food is just as good after , prices did sky rocket a bit but that's expected with a renovation . Tacos are great all fillings my favorite are the al pastor The Salsas are authentic as can be . Service is always good at this establishment. I would recommend this place for anyone that wants so authentic Mexican food .

Well Ive been here and eaten from here a few times. I always get take out or order for delivery. I ordered the huitlacoche and pumpkin flower quesodillas which are quite good. Everything else is quite shit that I've had. And it's beyond pissed me off because I'm told one thing and get something else and on top of it I was overcharged. They tried to get away with it. I will be making a note. Because last night the bill was supposed to be 22 plus tax but they said $28. And then they charged my car $38.27. And it took roughly 10 minutes for them to give back 10 dollars. When it was actually even more since the quesodillas are only 5 bucks and the basic nachos are 12. Wha a scam. If the food was great I probably wouldn't be pissed but I got sick because they used old mushrooms. And the beans I could tell were quite old. And the meat (steak) was quite flavorless. The only thing half way decent was the tablespoon of quac on the side but even that tasted a little off and was way too watery. Sooo. 28 bucks and I got two quesodillas and nachos that were supposed to have meat, beans, cheese, sour cream, cotija, tomato and guac and it had a large pile of overcooked chips, a handful of meat that would have been about the same amount they put in two tacos, some pasty beans, and a very small sprinkle of cotija, and one small spoon of watery guac. Hmmm. Never quite had nachos that bad before. I mean if I was going to starve or spend money on that shit again I would starve. And it took them 15 minutes to prepare. Not sure how since the place was empty and the food wasn't even hot when they handed it to me. It was warm. The quesodillas were edible but very very bland upsettingly so especially since they charged $14 for them an they're very small too. And did not have any guac or sour cream basically like a large taco I guess. It needed salt or something i don't even know. I do know the sauce will burn your tongue like Idk what spices they use but that shit is wayyy too spicy especially if that's all they're offering to go with your food. Definitely not authentic. My stomach has felt sick all day and I actually threw up around 10 this morning mushrooms that I had ingested at midnight the night before. Pretty sure that's not good. Anyway I thought this place was good months ago when I only ordered the huitlacoche quesodillas but I was wrong. Go somewhere else..

I love love love this place, I even love how it's open LATE for people like me. The food is great and the tacos are not dry like other Mexican spots. I've had the flautas and there were so good!! Highly recommend those who want to try something out.

Jarjieh F.

Yelp
Honestly the reviews don't do this place justice. New Mexico Place does moist house-made corn tortillas right. Beans and rice were good. I had al pastor tacos (which could have used a pinch more salt), and my partner has enchiladas with green sauce. We were both impressed and very satisfied.

Sarah D.

Yelp
The best Tex-Mex you can get in Williamsburg hands down, and decently priced, but you absolutely have to call the restaurant to order or to confirm your online order because their business hours are not correctly posted on any platform. I have now twice ordered via Grub Hub and found out two hours later that the restaurant was not even open (though clearly my mistake the second time around for forgetting)! They're not super up-to-date technologically and they're a little unorganized, but you just cannot go wrong with the food. Especially recommend the chorizo burrito or tacos!

Kenneth K.

Yelp
Okay 4 stars because I am fearful of people come eat here! A gem in Williamsburg, and a place that I love coming to for some solid, affordable Mexican food. The decor is nothing to scream about, but the enchiladas and the chimichanga... sweet Mary, Joseph and all the apostles that's some good food. Great beer prices as well and the wait staff has always been nothing but sweet and attentive. I usually come with my sister and her family as they live close by for dinner, so I don't know if they do a lunch, but worth checking out.

Jennifer B.

Yelp
Nice spot. Impeccable service. Quiet but nice & intimate. Entrees are priced nice enough, but everything is ala carte- so be prepared to piece together your meal (rice & beans not included for most entrees as is normally customary at Mexican spots). Chips and salsa (spicy & delish!) come w your meal. I will be back to try other things- soon.

Good Neighborhood Restaurant. Stop for a late night craving of authentic Mexican Fare Food was tasty, and fast, service was good and courteous.

I am slayed. Brutally and maliciously. There I was. On the couch, watching "Moon" (directed by David Bowie's son, which was *amazing*), when the first stirrings of a tummy grumble appeared. My BFF recommended that we order from New Mexico Place, as they are cheap, fast and pretty darned delicious. Innocently, I ordered the $5.75 steak burrito (my BFF ordered the veggie burrito and her boyfriend also ordered the steak burrito), and an order of the nachos for the three of us to share. Within 30 minutes, the food was delivered. 20 minutes after that, I was slayed. Curled up in the fetal position and whimpering from the agony of defeat. Now, as to the burrito itself isn't huge when compared to Chipotle's oft massive burritos. In fact, the New Mexico burritos are absurdly simple - just tortilla, rice, meat and a smear of beans. However, it's simplicity hides the evil deviousness that lays within. For me, the burrito was a little over salty, and there wasn't a complexity of flavors or spices that I have come to expect from a good burrito. Yet...yet, there was something almost artistic in this simplicity, with flavorful guacamole and sour cream served on the side. So I ate the burrito, pausing every once in a while, to snack on a crisp and deliciously homemade tortilla. About 3/4s of the way through the burrito, I realized that it's simple deception was the Trojan Horse that would ultimately slay me. I never did end up finishing the burrito, and the three of us didn't even make a dent in the huge nachos. Instead, I weakly curled up into the fetal position, and fell into a semi food coma, with the overwhelming fullness of my tummy preventing me from descending into slumber's sweet release. My belly was so full that rolling over would elicit whimpers and groans. It wasn't until nearly noon the next day, did I being to feel hungry again. Definitely not the most delicious burrito I've ever had, but definitely the only burrito to defeat me. I've been able to eat TWO Chipotle burritos and still eat pie for dessert, but this one burrito had the density of a black hole, and for the first time ever, I was slayed by my meal.

This is my favorite Mexican place by far!! Food is always consistent never a bad experience. My husband is from Cali and is always looking for a spot that satisfies his need for home Mexican food . We always order the tacos, tamales, burrito bowls ... but the tortilla soup I can literally eat all year round. This spot is a gem.

Catie H.

Yelp
Is it a quesadilla if there is no cheese? Because I ordered a quesadilla and there was no cheese. For $10.50. That's 2 corn tortillas with some veggies for $10.50. Seriously. So no, I cannot recommend this place. Nachos were $14 and very disappointing. I wanted to try a new place and I regret it.

Jocelyn C.

Yelp
Friends, family and I have been ordering from and dining at New Mexico for over 5 years and they consistently deliver. The food is authentic non-Americanized Mexican food full of flavor and often spicy. The food may not look great, and the decor is not up to date, but it tastes amazing and that is what matters. I was absolutely shocked by the 1 star reviews on Yelp. We've ordered from them countless times and never had cold or bad food. Everything has been awesome! That is what motivated me to write a review and show my support. One person even said that they thought that the positive reviews for New Mexico were fake. I assure you that many people love New Mexico. It's a neighborhood favorite and I hope they continue to thrive and their business isn't hurt by a couple of bitter yelpers who had a bad experience which is definitely not the norm.

Wandered in here at 1AM on a Thursday and wow the food was amazing??? The salsa and nachos were fresh and home made, and the lengua tacos were perfect. Need to come back here soon--I hope it wasn't a fluke!!

#Pretty cool place. I used to get Gorditas here. They have #Mexican Coke and complimentary chips. I once watched the Puerto Rican Day Parade here through the window and saw the leader of the #Guardian Angels, Curtis Sliwa, walking in it. He was smiling and waving to everyone. But it looked like he saw me and got really nervous or something. He stopped smiling. I'm not sure what happened.

Nachos = delicious Free chips and salsa = delicious Veggie friendly menu = check (they can make things off menu, too if you ask). Beers = cheap Basically I love this little neighborhood spot. They recently revamped I find the decorations original and charming. Sometimes they play movies with subtitles and everyone sits on the same side of the table to watch.
