TABÚ - Williamsburg

Hi so I’ve been here twice and each time the service was excellent. The first time was for a birthday dinner with a group of 7 and they were accommodating and very attentive. You can also taste the food is very authentic you feel like you’re really eating food from somebodies auntie that everyone talk about. The second time I was there my server Isabelle was very nice and helped me narrow done some choices which was very helpful. When I came for the birthday dinner the birthday girl decided based on atmosphere alone and the exceeded expectations. The bartender is great as well, they have a very well stocked bar and the bartender is very experienced. Highly recommend will be back soon.

Great service with friendly staff. Drinks we amazing with a large selection of tequilas and Mezcal to request to be used in your drinks. Food was flavorful. I would definitely recommend visiting.

New executive chef & new menu! Walked in on a Friday around 4:30 and opted to sit outside at the bar. Ended up trying 4 of their margs and they're tasty as hell (mango, tamarind, passion fruit, and kiwi). Liked Passion fruit and mango the best but they were all so solid. Shoutout to Lee - great bartender and even funnier guy. Smoke in the box tequila made our evening! For food, I got the salsa flight. Do it! Some of 5 of the best salsas I ever had. They refilled my chips also when requested (chips are homemade and soo good). The chef came out and spoke with us for 20 min and gave me a house tortilla to try (it was amazing). Will definitely be coming back for dinner, I want to try their outdoor raw bar and the new seafood menu. Must be said - the space is gorgeous and they have vibey music playing @ 80 decibels. Great date night spot especially during dusk

20/10 experience! We went on a Thursday night for dinner and did the tasting menu. It was WORTH. EVERY. PENNY. The special cocktail (raspberry and peach with tequila) was beyond delicious, the food was phenomenal from start to finish, and the service was impeccable. Carlos was our main server, and he was absolutely amazing. He was so knowledgeable, made sure to cater to our dietary needs, and truly made our meal an experience to be remembered forever. He said he’s been doing this for 21 years, and his passion for food and excellent service truly shows. He even refused to accept the additional tip we tried to give him although he deserved so much more than the 20% auto-gratuity. This fine dining experience truly blew us away and we will definitely be back.

WE GOT RIPPED OFF. Soulless food, awful service, and tasteless decoration of the valentines. We went on Valentine’s Day, and they served four-course meals for $120 + tax for each person. First, the service was slow and with a bad attitude. Second, everyone who works there walks so fast that it feels like they have to rush somewhere, and the servers and managers keep bumping into my chair because they are rushing for no reason. Third, they had to keep opening the door, which let the wind blow in the whole time (and it was cold!). After sitting down for 40 minutes, we only had one dish. The first two dishes were both super small portions and cold, and after the main course (the third dish), the dessert came up when I started to feel ready to eat. I left the restaurant still feeling hungry, and I usually don't eat that much! To make it feel like Valentine's Day, they decorated the whole thing with tasteless pink balloons and hired a saxophonist to improvise on boring pop music in the background. The whole dinner should have been priced around $38, not $120—it was a terrible experience while still hungry. I'll definitely not go back.

Went for brunch and everything was delicious! The decor transported me straight to Mexico, creating an authentic and vibrant atmosphere. Highly recommend the French toast—it’s a must-try. While you’re obviously there for the Mexican dishes, share the French toast with the table—you won’t regret it. The guacamole and aguachile were also fantastic. I had the agua de Jamaica to drink, and it was pretty good. As the place filled up, it did get a bit loud, but the lively music added to the energetic vibe. Definitely worth a visit!

The place is beautiful, but way smaller than it looks on social media, I went a Saturday and no shows at all were presented that night, bad choice being a Valentine’s Day weekend… The service was lame, it seemed it was a bad for the host, not the type of warm welcome you expect from a place like this. The drinks were delicious, I think they saved the night with the music. The food was good, the birria tacos were tasty, the guac needed like a kick of flavor, not bad but not outstanding. Also we ordered something called Tlayuda, and I had mix feelings with it, I love the combination of sweet and salty ingredients, but black beans with melon uhmmm I don’t think so… In general was a good experience but definitely I’m not coming back.

Made reservations to celebrate my birthday and my boyfriend birthday. The reviews looked well so we booked. As we walked in we were not greeted i had to ask about seating. We sat for about 25 - 30 mins without being serviced. I guess the manager of the restaurant took our drink order and we ordered an appetizer that also took another 15 mins seems like none of the staff wanted to service us. We received our water down drinks and i think that was our queue to leave. I told the manager to forget the appetizer which was guacamole and chips he seems bothered and quickly printed the receipt and gave us the check. $51 dollars for two drinks and sparkling water. Worst service i ever received will not recommend will not return. Menu is very minimal and we was also told what wasn’t available like what. Such a turn off. This place doesn’t offer an elevated experience.
