Chorizo Tacos
Huai E.

Food was amazing. I had the fish tacos. Chorizo Tacos, Quesadillas, Al Pastor, Short Ribs which came with Mac and cheese, and Mexican hot chocolate. The food had good flavor and waitress was kind and polite. The atmosphere was like transported to Mexico. Overall quite good

Fish Tempura Fish

Came here yesterday and it is always a solid choice for their fish tacos. I have tried both their short ribs and steak and was not a fan. ( a bit dry for my liking) Sadly they didn't have pina colada when I came yesterday cause I remmebered it being really good. The lady told me it was seasonal. I have tried their steak churasco before as well and it is good with. Smoky flavor. Definitely a big portion so if you order that it's probably best to share. If you are on the area I recommend coming to try their fish tacos!

Food was good. Small cozy place. For cokes, make sure you specify if you want can coke or glass bottle coke. I think they default to glass coke. They also charge 3% extra for credit card transaction.

Churrasco Steak

I love Fonda Garibaldi. Period.Stop. This is my go to Mexican spot and Ive been ordering regularly for over a year now and have never been dissapointed. All the taco optios are amazing. My faves are the Chorizo,the fish,Al Pastor and Carnitas but Ive tried every taco on the menu and not a clunker in the bunch. If you want something more substantial the Guajillo rubbed Baby Back Ribs are terrific. The sauce is perfectly smokey its served with a large side of Mac and Cheese which me not liking Mac and Cheese at all i gave to my friend and she loved it but next time im gonna ask if i can swap it out for rice n beans which they make really well. The fried plantains are good and they make amazing fried Calamari as well. Everytime i order they toss in a small bag of chips and a cup of salsa gratis which is such a nice touch. This is an elevated Mexican spot and one I highly recommend.

Beautiful, cozy, warm place to stop and eat. Would highly recommend, their food was so flavorful and juicy! We thought we got too much by sharing two apps and two mains, but it was literally so good we wiped the plates out. Service was friendly and kind, everyone was nice to us and our 8mo old son. Will be back! Thank yuuu

Churrasco (Steak)

Everything A ++++! just ordered to go and everything from service to speed to quality was so so good!

This is allegedly chicken tinga tacos which have no chipotle sauce whatsoever
Ozzie C.

Very disappointing. First of all I ordered on Seamless and just know the time estimate is about a third of the actual time you'll wait. About 40 minutes after I ordered I get a call that they don't have crabmeat for the soups I ordered, they offered me butternut squash which is hardly an equivalent and i don't like squash. Anyway they made the soup with shrimp alone which was supposed to be with crabmeat. Soup was good, a bit spicy which was fine but far too much zucchini. The tamales with cheese were also good, tasty. Biggest disappointment and what I recommend staying away from is the chicken tinga taco. If you read the description you're expecting chicken in a chipotle sauce which we all know what that looks like. What I didn't expect is shredded chicken drowned on top by a combo of guacamole and sour cream. After taking all of that off as I also don't like guac and it isn't mentioned in description I was left with the chicken you see in the picture shredded chicken which I added medium hot sauce to because there isn't the slightest hint of chipotle. All in all it was a disappointing experience and I won't be going back. After waiting 50 minutes or more I was expecting to walk into a busy restaurant with take out orders waiting to go yet it was completely empty and no other orders.

Short rib bowl - fantastic!
Sharon W.

Wow wow wow. Best Mexican food we've had in a very very long time. Ordered delivery tonight which included the short rib bowl and chicken quesadilla. Everything was cooked to perfection and seasoned just right. Will definitely be ordering from them again in the very near future.

I came here with a friend on a weekday night. We were seated right away. We got 4 things on the menu and it was under $60 before tips. The food was tasty and portions were generous. The steak was very tender with a bit a char, I highly recommend getting that! Tacos were $7 for two, they were great value and yummy. I appreciate the staff came to check on the table a few times for water and chips/salsa refills but food took a bit longer than expected to arrive.

Unlike the first few times I came here, their steak and eggs suffered a bit in terms of flavor and presentation. As you can see in comparison, the steak photo I took initially a year ago was a lot more vibrant, tasty, and aesthetically pleasing. This time the steak was very bitter and overly charred to the point where all you can taste is the char instead of the steak. However, it was indeed cooked medium rare, which was great. The beef rib bowl we got was also a bit tough instead of moist and tender like it used to be. Nonetheless, the price is still incredibly reasonable and definitely worth a try! Please give them a try and I hope they can fix these issues (: Thank you for reading and good luck!

Tempura fish tacos

I ordered takeout from this restaurant for the first time last week and it was amazing! I got the tempura fish tacos and they were crispy and full of flavor. The lunch special also came with very tasty rice and beans. The chicken and rice bowl also tasted great. Everything was very affordable. The restaurant itself is small but it's really clean and nicely decorated. The cashier was also very friendly! Looking forward to coming back :)

Rosalita
Ri A.

The vibe is great! The staff was very nice and on point. Their drinks were great! We had the Rosalita frozen. Everything we ordered was fresh and delicious! We loved their guacamole, homemade chips and homemade tortillas! Wow! I loved how they spread it out for the table. We had a great time here and enjoyed every bite!

This is the best Mexican food I've had in New York City. And I was born and raised in Mexico. I'm glad the food delivery app recommend it.

An Absolute Catering GEM!**…read more As someone who regularly coordinates corporate catering in NYC, I can confidently say Summer Salt Tacos has set a new standard! And believe me, after 11 years working in hospitality, I'm not easily impressed. I'm probably one of the biggest complainers I know, so when a restaurant gets it right, they deserve their flowers! I submitted a catering inquiry on Tuesday for delivery Wednesday. Shortly afterward, I received a proposal directly from Danny, the OWNER! What an absolute delight he was. I made several changes and requests, and he was incredibly patient, accommodating, responsive, and helpful with recommendations. Customer service at its finest! **Now, the delivery and packaging. WOW!** Our order arrived AHEAD OF SCHEDULE, and the delivery person kindly brought everything upstairs. Everything was neatly labeled, organized, and carefully secured. I cannot emphasize enough how often restaurants cut corners on packaging. I won't name names, but some could learn a thing or two from Summer Salt! They DOUBLED the aluminum pans for heavier items like beans, carefully plastic-wrapped anything containing liquid, and individually secured approximately FIVE different sauces. **NOT. ONE. THING. SPILLED!** They even included plenty of serving utensils, tongs, and GLOVES for unpacking. Who thinks of everything like that?! Apparently, Summer Salt does! **Now, THE FOOD!** My only complaint? THE PORTIONS ARE MASSIVE! For those adorable little California-style tacos, they certainly don't skimp. My colleagues went back for seconds, thirds, and possibly fourths! And generous portions did NOT mean sacrificing quality. The meats were beautifully marinated, the fish arrived STILL CRISPY (not soggy!), the lettuce was fresh, and the limes actually had JUICE when squeezed! I've received enough dried-out limes from other restaurants to appreciate that detail. One colleague who has visited California beach towns said the food reminded him of eating tacos from a beachside food truck. He ranked Summer Salt among the best taco spots we've catered from! Personally, I'm usually too busy during lunch to enjoy what I order for everyone else, but I made an exception. Initially, I thought the tacos looked tiny compared with my Taco Bell expectations. Well, three tacos later, I understood! Freshness, flavor, and crunch in every bite. Absolutely delicious! **A HUGE plus for dietary accommodations!** We had several vegetarians, myself included, and Danny allowed me to add individual items without forcing me to purchase an entire additional catering tray or place a separate order. Fellow EAs and office managers know how valuable that flexibility is when feeding a large team! **THE CHIPS AND CHURROS!** They provide a TON of tortilla chips, perfectly fresh, crunchy, and salted just right. I LOVE chips, so this made me particularly happy. But PLEASE, whatever you do, ORDER THE CREAM-FILLED CHURROS! We have a fairly health-conscious office, so initially people were politely cutting them into quarters. That restraint lasted approximately five minutes! People started returning for WHOLE churros. Order extra. Trust me. **To my fellow Executive Assistants, Office Managers, and corporate event planners:** THIS is the restaurant you want in your catering rotation! Responsive, accommodating, punctual, generous, organized, and most importantly, genuinely delicious. My only regret? No margaritas! Unfortunately, it was midday, but tacos and margaritas for an after-hours team gathering sounds like an excellent future plan! Finally, a heartfelt THANK YOU to Danny and the entire Summer Salt kitchen team. It's easy to complain when things go wrong, but exceptional service deserves recognition too. Their attention to detail, from preparation to packaging, genuinely impressed me. Our team LOVED everything, and seeing colleagues return for more was the best confirmation. If you're feeding a corporate team, hosting a party, or simply craving fantastic tacos, give Summer Salt a try. You won't regret it.

Greta service from the people that work. They seem happy and loved their work. The inside is nice…read moreand spacious with seats and tables upfront. The food is a base hit nothing to write home About but they give you plenty of meat and ingredients. A solid taco when in need.

Decided to try Kahlo as it came up as a Pulsed deal (be aware do not purchase it, they do not work…read morewith restaurant and do not take the deal) but also came as to celebrate Hispanic heritage month & many other joys. Made a reservation atv6 but ended up getting there earlier and was seated right away as it just opened. The place is beautiful and very intentional with the aesthetics and atmosphere. We very much attend and maybe a little bit too much if that wa possible as me and my friend would be in mid convo and checked on 4 separate times with about 15 minutes in between. The server may be new or since it wasn't too busy just had the time to check on us or see if we were going to get more items, a little excessive but harmless. We enjoyed our lobster tacos and corn so much. It was flavorful and filling. The drinks were good as well, I went with the eagle and it had a punch to it but still delicious. We enjoyed our lovers the vibe of the restaurant and it's true authenticity!

Very solid high end mexican spot near hudson yards. It's out of the way if you're not already in…read moreHudson Yards, but if you are it's a good break from the likes of Limusina and others. The tuna tostadas are great, the cocktails are so tasty and go beyond the typical margarita you see everywhere, the cochinita pibil was sooo good with such an amazing habanero salsa accompanying it - honestly perfect in so many ways. I would love to be here with more frequency, but it's not cheap. Though they clearly invested in a really beautiful space and the service is good, though they could use more staff.

Very cute, vibe-y little spot, perfect for lunch with amazing drinks!…read more Very cute, festive cultural decor. Great music! Outdoor covered seating available. We started off with a round of drinks. A Mexican Coke, two types of mezcal margaritas that were amazing! The one with the blackberry syrup and thyme was INCREDIBLE! Our table also had a mocktail and it was delish! We started off with some guac and fresh chips. VERY SMALL SERVING. I would skip this dish based on the serving size alone. It wasn't worth it. And it wasn't that great to be so small. We also had a bowl of black bean soup. It was great! My daughter and I shared a plate of salsa verde enchiladas. Chicken. We loved them! The salsa-SO GOOD! The only thing that was spicy was the habanero salsa. But it was overly good! I couldn't help myself! We also each had a taco. And had a shrimp taco that was topped with a cool, crunchy coleslaw. She had a Birria taco. Both were perfect! My husband order a steak torta. He's a man of few words. But he seemed to be happy. My son in law had the molcajete and raved about it. It certainly looked beautiful! Look forward to coming back! Service was amazing! Our server was knowledgeable about the menu, had great recommendations, and was absolutely the sweetest!

Came for cinco de mayo and it was a little hectic outside but the wait wasn't too long…read more They had a little margarita stand that you could order from outside and I thought that was so cool.
