Cinco de Mayo landed on my radar when a bunch of us at work were looking for a place to grab some…read morelunch. We had our usual list of spots in Midtown East, but this time we wanted something a little different. We ultimately landed on Mexican, however even then there were several spots to chose from. One of my colleagues found CdM, and since we had nothing to lose we decided to check it out. In terms of physical space at CdM, there is very little; this is actually a walk-up spot hence it is solely a takeout restaurant. The menu is pretty straightforward - lots of Mexican staples with a good variety to choose from. The burrito bowl looked good so I decided to go with that - I was given choice of protein (I chose pastor) and types of beans (I chose black). The bowl was really good - all the ingredients tasted fresh and they were generous with the portion. They added sour cream to the top of the bowl and it came with a side of salsa verde which I thought was a nice touch. We also ordered some bags of tortilla chips to share - these were my favorite kind as they were semi-thick and super crunchy. Overall, I had a solid experience at Cinco de Mayo. It definitely hit the Mexican craving spot and I would have no qualms returning for another meal.

What sets this place apart from most…read moreplaces besides their awesome Tulum aesthetics is the fact that not everyone has to participate in the bottomless alcohol option, so you can invite your non drinking friends. They also have an à la carte bottomless food option which even me would Jed have to participate in. This is one of the only places that offers a bottomless food option. The waitress was very attentive and the drinks were strong! Worth every penny and I will be back here again for sure. I thought I took more photos but I didn't, this place is a vibe. 5 stars

What a GORGEOUS space. Whoever interior decorated this restaurant deserves their tens because it is…read morea spectacle. I had only seen daytime pics, but being there in the evening is a treat. If you are someone who is looking at an aesthetic place, this is a top contender. Unfortunately, I would say this place is better looking than the food is good. The food was fine, appetizers were all fresh but lacked any real depth in flavor. I wasn't too thrilled with the bone marrow I had either (but the tortillas come in the cutest basket). Personally, if it wasn't for the drinks and the space, I cant say this place is worth it - you're not coming here for the food. Another little complaint I have is the women's restroom on the second floor - right by the door is a floor to ceiling mirror which I understand was included to make the space seem bigger, but my friends and I agreed that it is a little misleading - I kept wanting to walk into it thinking there was more space there and not wall. I would recommend maybe putting a decal on it to clearly show its mirror.

The staff was extremely nice, and even though we were 45 minutes late, they were able to fit us in, so appreciated that. The service was amazing. the restaurant is lovely and packed like true Mid-town NY restaurants. They surprised my mama with a song and free dessert to celebrate her birthday. The whole restaurant joined in, so nice. The food is amazing!!! I don't think they have a bad dish. My mama enjoyed which did my heart good because it's a favorite of mine and after so many years, it's still amazing . Totally recommend !! We for some reason got hooked on the hibiscus pomegranate iced tea. Yummy yum yum.

We chose this place for brunch, as it was close to where we needed to be. My friend has been to…read moretheir other location and said it was good. We had reservations and there was a party ahead of us at the entrance. No greeting or acknowledgment from the hostess upon entrance (red flag). She seated the other party and very lackadaisically returned to her booth to finally acknowledge our presence. She seated us with menus but no brunch menu even though it was still brunch time. I had to ask the waiter for it. Took a while to get order in. We ordered two apps and one entree to share. Took even longer for our food to arrive. We ordered: Nachos - they were ok Fried calamari - overly salty, slightly fishy, and COLD Chile relleno - underwhelming, lukewarm Hibiscus pomegranate iced tea - tasted like grenadine water. Zero pomegranate or hibiscus flavor. Also, different prices between brunch and regular menu. We were charged regular menu price. Overall, super underwhelming and not worth your time or money. Chipotle would've been better than this.

This is a perfect location for Happy Hour. Not only is it away from the hustle and bustle of Times…read moreSquare, but the Happy Hour area has high-top, bar, and table seating. The menu has a long list of items and they are all reasonably priced. Our Server, Maria K., did a wonderful job throughout the meal and we were never rushed to leave our table. We started with a glass of Modelo draft beer and a Golden Margarita. The beer was served in a large glass and the Margarita was strong and well presented. Tacos are a great selection for Happy Hour and all of them (fish, chicken, carnitas) were well seasoned, the optimal amount of spiciness, and wrapped in soft shells. The Street Corn was DELICIOUS. The creamy sauce made each bite a delight and the Tahin just added to the enjoyment. When I went to the restroom, I noticed that the restaurant was very full and the low hum of the customers made the ambiance uplifting. Sinigual will definitely be added to my Happy Hour list and I highly recommend it for "happiness."

When she arrived, the hostess told her they had overbooked the evening and our reservation was "bumped" to the following day. Utter nonsense and ridiculous! I have never heard of ANY restaurant (and I frequent many restaurants) bumping someone "to the next evening" without an "ok" from the customer. It's unfortunate that Sinigual completely messed this one up - our office is close in proximity to the restaurant and we were all regular customers there for lunch and dinner.

Despite being hard blocked by our 7 yr old on every menu item --- he came through with ice cream (punt!). I appreciated his service to some exasperated parents.

Nothing special about it at all, it's like they forgot how to make the flavors pop. One thing I didn't like in my other visits was that the spicy version of the guac was not spicy and very bland. The other options weren't appealing to me to I tried it again. Not spicy and very bland. At least they're consistent here. Salsa was different and also bland, which is hard to do with salsa. On the plus side, I love a perfectly fried chip, and they nail the chips here. Spicy Kale was decent. Service was...passable.
