Me and my wife dined in and both had a torta. We both got milanesa de pollo (breaded chicken) and it was delicious. One of the best tortas Ive had since moving to the heights. Also had a Carne asada taco and that was also very delicious. To complete the food review an agua de horchata was also delicious. Overall all the food we ate was very very good. We will deff come back or order take out. Cant wait to try other items from this place!

Best Mexican food in the area, truly worth trying. It deserves many more stars. Chiles rellenos are my favorite but they also have killer nachos, tortas, and breakfast. (PS, if you look at the bad reviews - took too long, got the wrong soda - they are all the result of having heavy business... Because its good.)

So I am new to the area. I like to try & compare restaurants especially w/ so many Mexican restaurants available. I went in around 10:15 pm, only 2-3 customers.I ordered guacamole with chips & 3 tacos.The guacamole was full of large pieces of onions, more onions than avocado. And for the amount they serve you & the price theyre charging its a rip off to give so little avocado and try to mask it by loading it with onions.The tacos lacked flavor and were skimpy with the meat. Even the sauces did not taste flavorful. And let me tell you I was starving, which usually at that point everything tastes like a gourmet meal. Not in this case.Just go down the block and head to Grito instead.

I been to place before and the food was ok. I don’t think it’s the best Mexican food because I had good Mexican food before. The fact that this place is nearby to my house I go there when I don’t feel like driving somewhere because I’m too busy. It kinda of works out sometimes, but if you want good Mexican food don’t go there.

I cant believe this place doesnt have more stars on Google - the food is so good! My favorite place for tacos in the area. Everything is seasoned well, the tacos are piled high with filling (we like cecina, al pastor, chicken, shrimp, and fish - they have all the kinds we like), you can add guacamole to everything, the salsa verde is so tasty you can drink it (maybe thats just me), they make picky kid food like chicken tenders, AND the cocktails are small but tasty, and powerful! I have never been inside but the delivery is on point. If they ever make a mistake with your order, just call them instead of leaving a bad review! 🤪 The food is just too good

The service is excellent, be advised that some staff only speak Spanish however there are others working that can translate. I order delivery and the food always comes on time. I enjoy their carne asada tortas and chicken tacos. I miss the old red sauce, very spicy 🌶️ and a great complement to the tacos. 🌮 Best Mexican spot in Washington Heights.

I ordered delivery from here and it a normal amount of time to arrive. No complaints there.The burrito was ok, good size, toppings and salsas on the side. And I like how it was pressed on the grill to seal it closed.However the tostones came raw! They were horribly undercooked and I had to bake them in order for them to be edible.And I asked for Jarritos Tamarindo and instead received mandarin, which isn’t the same thing.Not the best overall experience for me which is disappointing.

The server there has known energy to work unfortunately she has an attitude. The orders are never written down and there was plastic in my cup. I found the plastic in my cup all she did was apologize and to add her own tip to our order. Did not try to make me a new drink… never coming back

The owner pays the female workers less than the legal minimum wage even for a restaurant business.

Place orders 3 hours in advance because it takes forever. I placed my order in a timely manner since I have a limit for lunch and my order never came. Person handling the calls kept saying it’s going to arrive. I literally place the order in advance for a reason

I love how they chose the wrong soda... but they mustve retrieved it from the nether regions of their fridge because it came with a free cockroach. Yum... my favorite. I called the restaurant and all they said Oh sorry... we were busy... we forgot to take the roach off. Never ordering from here again! Reported them to NYC, too.

I ordered for the second time and I had the worst experience. They forgot to send a cemita. I ordered two steak tacos without onion or cilantro and they left them with the onion and cilantro on top. I asked for 2 orchata waters and they left them all open and watered. I asked for a plate of chicken breast and The pico de gallo came so hot, I called to order my cemita and the tacos but it turned out that the cook didnt want to send me back the tacos and that only the cemita that they sent me and the enchilada meat was burnt without papalo without avocado and without chiles Chipotle The only good thing is that the girl who served me was very kind to me, I will definitely never order from this place again, what a shame.
