    My boyfriend wanted a date night (as usual--and I can never say no), so we tried Casa Enrique near his job. We didn't have reservations, so we were seated downstairs, which isn't as nice as the upstairs area--but it was still fine for a casual night out. The food and service were both great. We ordered chips with sauces, ceviche, branzino, and steak. Everything was flavorful and well-prepared, but the standout for me was definitely the cauliflower--it was so good and honestly the highlight of the meal. Drinks were just okay--mine wasn't my favorite, but it didn't take away from the overall experience. Overall, I'd definitely come back again, but next time I'd make a reservation since this place gets pretty busy, even during the week.

    Pastel de campechano
    Austin K.

    Complimentary chips and salsa were really good. They came at the same time as our taco richi and cauliflower appetizer. The taco was great with the meat really standing out and the cauliflower was tasty with the cream sauce and pistachios. The ribeye con tuatero was excellent too. It was really salty in parts, we think due to the bone marrow juice. The pastel de campechano is an ice cream cake and huge. We couldn't finish it. Very creative, I don't know how they kept the layers so crispy. The only disappointing item was the suerito, it wasn't as refreshing as the ones we've had in Mexico, perhaps not enough sparkling water.

    Terrific service. Cool vibe in a nice looking restaurant. The food for the most part is excellent. Also some really great cocktails. The Rib Eye à la Sal was as good as any steak served by the finest steakhouses. The Taco Richi was also great as was the Queso Fundido. The Tacos de Branzino was disappointing. A lot of cole slaw and not much branzino. I'm not really sold on their cauliflower dish either. Otherwise a terrific meal. The complimentary chips and sauces were a spicy hit. Desserts another plus.

    I was a bit underwhelmed here. The guacamole and broccoli appetizers were bland, and the steak in the tacos (both taco callejeras and taco richi) was dry. The cauliflower and hamachi were amazing. We got too full of appetizers to try any of the steak entrees, so maybe that would've been better. We did try each of the four desserts, three of which I loved. The pastel de campechanas was my favorite, and the mango and vanilla ice cream were also good. The chocolate cake was a bit dry though. The ambience is very nice, and it was easy to book a reservation for a group of eight. The service was very nice too. It's fine for a business meal, which is probably what they cater to.

    This place is such a gem! Beautiful inside and you are constantly greeted and checked on by various staff members. This was my first time visiting and I will be back for sure! Drinks - I had the Cuerno Margarita which was very good and had a kick to it. My friend had a smoked guava drink which she loved. Food - I did the lunch menu and had the vegetable, branzino, and banana dessert. All were amazing but the branzino was phenomenal. So flavorful and melts in your mouth. Overall a wonderful experience and a great place for lunch or dinner with friends or colleagues.

    Amazing midtown spot! If you are in the neighborhood, this is a must. Food, drinks and service are top notch. You can't go wrong with likely anything you order. The Taco Richi, Skirt Steak and all of the sides were outstanding. Highly recommend for a group dinner, business dinner, date, or dinner with parents.

    Food is still great. But dropping a star because service we got from our waiter was terrible in our last trip--normally I would give a restaurant another chance but it was bad enough for me to drop a star as it ruined our dining experience significantly. Rest of the staff were great. Just our waiter. He was not to be found for long periods of time. He didn't notice whether our bottled water was empty (strange because most restaurants over pour water to make you buy more). Every time we needed something we had to search for him or ask someone to go find him for us. It just seemed he didn't care to be working there. Too bad for such a nice restaurant to have such poor unmotivated staff.

    Mashed potatoes (pure de papa)
    Hector P.

    One of the best dinners I've had in a long time. My complaints are small and nitpicking because I don't always trust reviews that are too positive. First they start you off with some complimentary chips with a flight of salsas that knocked my socks off. And let me say, I've had chips all over, from here to Mexico, from street carts to Michelin-starred restaurants. The chips at Cuerno are the best I've ever had. One of the salsas we could only explain as a burst of citrus hitting your mouth before the slow heat builds after. It's wonderful. Even my wife, who isn't into spice at all, was able to enjoy it. DRINKS: For some reason, we never got any complimentary drinks. Maybe because we ordered drinks from the menu, not sure, but my wife was disappointed she didn't get to try the frozen margs that other tables were getting. My wife ordered a hibiscus margarita and I ordered the tamalindo, which I expected to have more tamarindo flavor, so I was a little disappointed with mine. My wife's marg was strong but tasty. FOOD: We started with the cauliflower and Tacos Callejeros. My wife was scared seeing habanero-truffle on the menu, but the cauliflower was not spicy at all. It is as delicious as everyone says, but my wife isn't the biggest fan of charcoal flavor, so she felt it overpowered the dish a bit. I enjoyed it with no complaints. The Tacos Callejeros were an unexpected hit. I'm not sure what I expected, but these tacos had a rich beef-stew flavor that was very homey and comforting. The salsa verde, which my wife was hesitant about, tasted so good that she was spooning it onto her tacos. For our main, we shared the Rib Eye a la Sal, and it was on par with some of the best steakhouses we've tried. The esquites were great. I'm a big fan of esquites, and it's tough to elevate this dish, but there was a good amount of flavor throughout. I just wish there had been a tiny bit more kick. The mashed potatoes were... mashed. What can one say? They were good. Service was okay. Staff was attentive, and our server had a really chill vibe that we appreciated. I just wish we had received those comp drinks like everyone else around us, because that would've made the dinner a full five stars for us. It's rare that I want to return to a restaurant in NYC. There are just so many to try that I usually prefer trying a new spot, even after a great dinner. But with Cuerno, I was already planning my next visit as soon as I started getting full. Cuerno is just that good.

    The food was amazing ! The drinks were fine. The attention to detail in taking care of you...is unbelievable! The atmosphere and perfect, the live is perfect the music ...

    Midtown Manhattan is not where I usually like to go for a night out. But reviews and hype for Cuerno drove me there...and I left fully satisfied. Loved the buzzy atmosphere, and the place was packed! Huge space, not at all intimate or cozy, but vibey and loud in a fun and good way. The smell was also like a steakhouse mixed with an earthy incense that reminded me of the spots in Tulum. We got complimentary cocktails and complimentary chips and a variety of salsas to start. All delicious. The ceviche and queso fundido were also both delicious. And by the end of the apps, we were kind of full already but still had a bunch of tacos to go. The taco richi was one of the best tacos I've ever had, and too bad there was only 1 in a serving because if there were more, I would've been happy with just that alone. We also got the carnitas tacos (pork) and the tacos taquero (steak and bone marrow). I feel like those tacos could've used a bit more spice or citrus or salsa...they were just straight up meat, which is not necessarily a bad thing because they didn't skimp on the meat. But there definitely needed to be more flavor in my opinion. The esquites side was a very yummy addition to our tacos. The drinks were good too. Overall a really nice spot for the midtown area.

    Chicharron de Pulpon
    Amanda C.

    Ambience easily a 5/5. Big restaurant perfect for a date night or work event. Service was professional. They set themselves apart with their complementary mini cocktails and salsa flight to start. Presentation was very thoughtful. The cauliflower dish and the taco Richi were standouts. The pulpo chiracharron was just a touch chewy for my taste but I appreciated the different take on the dish. Skirt steak and esquite were both solid, but I think I'd try something else next time.

    Pay de Platano con Cajeta y Nuez
    Cia F.

    I can not begin to express how much I enjoyed Cuerno !! This was one of the BEST dining experiences ive ever had. We were seated at the time of our reservation, greeted in a timely manner, and our server was extremely helpful in explaining the menu and giving suggestions. We were even given surprise complimentary drinks which were so delicious that we ordered another round ! When it comes to the food, EVERYTHING was delicious. Exceptional. Theres nothing that was just "okay". We were given complimentary chips and salsas to start, and we were given a range of sauces mild to spicy. They were all very delicious !! I highly recommend ordering the Queso Fundido and the Chicharron de Pulpo. We were given tortillas with the appetizers and we ended up making quesadillas with both appetizers mixed together and it was soooooo good. For entrees, we had the Ribeye con Tuetano and the Corazon de Filete. Both were extremely flavorful; the filete was super tender and the Ribeye was melt-in-your-mouth good. The bone marrow on top took it to the next level ! Also loved the mashed potato side and mixed vegetables ! We finished off our meal with mint tea, cappuccino, and the Pay de Platano con Cajeta y Nuez dessert. I can not believe how incredible that pie tasted ! Like wow ! The whole dinner left me speechless in the best way possible. The ambiance is very chic, dim lighting, spot lights on every table (loved this), upbeat music, and great overall decor ! Our servers shift ended and we were given another server that wasnt as attentive and it took our dessert and check a lot longer to get to our table, but it was a full house so we didnt make a huge deal about it. Honestly everything else was so great that I wouldnt remove a star for that. I highly recommend this restaurant for a date night, girls night out, business, or any special occasion !

    Mike Z.

    This was a phenomenal experience through and through. I seriously could not stop eating the complementary chips and salsa that was provided, as the housemade salsas were divine! The dishes were also amazing, and all relatively large portions! I loved the taco taquero and the pescafo zarandeado, very unique takes! Service was also well on point; it was not a busy night but the servers were super engaged and gave everyone a free cocktail at the end!

    See all

His croque Madame was really delicious. The bread, the ham, the baked cheese and the fried egg was so savory. Yummy. My steak was a sizeable portion but I purposely ordered the bigger ounces since I know we'd share. Fries are nice and skinny, perfectly seasoned. Our waiter was attentive and I asked for the table next to us given all the food I know we were getting. He was not sure if he could accommodate but I insisted he check with management. They came over and put it together for me. I appreciated that given a table for two, for how much we ordered, it'd never fit. Totally would return. If you like French food, this is a solid spot to try.
