I was a bit nervous about ordering this bowl, but the waiter reassured me it was good. They nailed it. Besides the tacos, this is my new go-to. Love the music and vibe here. read more

Conveniently located within walking distance from my great friend Salty's house in Staten Island, Pina Colada was amazing. I visited last Friday evening, where a talented FDNY Fire Chief was playing guitar and singing. The atmosphere was comfortable and relaxing, and the waitstaff were incredibly kind and pleasant. The food looked delicious, so I shared some chips and salsa with a friend. Overall, it was a great time. read more

Stopped her on a nice day specifically to sit outside, and the patio is great! Gets some nice sunlight, and the staff is still very attentive. I tried the frozen Paloma margarita, which was very refreshing but strong, and the red sangria, which was definitely much more wine forward than fruit forward. The complimentary chips and salsa were fantastic. I decided to try the wings, which come in a mango jalapeño glaze that I could have drunk through a straw. About halfway through demolishing them, however, I noticed a long black hair on one of the wings. The staff was very apologetic about it, but my appetite was ruined after that. I would love to give this spot another try since everything had been good up to that point, but it may take me a minute to feel comfortable going back. read more

I was excited to come here with my friend for a lunch date since I always hear people talk about how good their tacos are. Upon walking it in the place had a forced Mexican interior vibe. Nothing to complain about but whatever. But as we are sitting there waiting to order looking at the menu there was flies constantly flying around we spend the either time swatting them away from food and drinks. The services isn't bad the waitress was nice even though she was dressed like a college student that just got called into work (a t shirt and some short shorts). She was the hostess the waitress and the bartender. Too much if you ask me. The food very bland I ordered steak with rice and beans it had no flavor even with the chimichurri sauce on top. My friend ordered fried fish tacos she said they were chewy and not very flavorful. I also got queso dip and for the nachos it didn't taste fresh tasted microwaved. Overall this isn't very clean place to eat Or a good place to eat The price is overpriced for what they offering and the quality of what you getting. I definitely wouldn't come back to this location I don't know if I would even try any of their other locations . read more

They've been a go to for a quick drink or bite to eat on the north shore and in the summer you can sit outside (hard to find in SI). The service and food are consistent. Drinks I recommend the Pineapple Express I get it with tequila. For apps I love the wings and guacamole is decent, the Korean tacos also tasty. I'll see you there read more

My home away from home. I just love this place the food the drinks the staff!! I would give it 10 stars if I could. Great ambiance! read more

Had a gran ol time here. The drinks are amazing and the food is delicious. I will say that if you don't like your food being too "wet" don't get the shrimp lime. It's delicious but the sauce was too heavy. The wings are delicious. Enjoy the meal! read more

On our journey to try all the Mexican restaurants on the island, we visited Ho'brah on a Saturday afternoon. It was not busy at all so we were quickly seated at a table. We ordered the baja street corn, camaron quesadillas, and ohana quesadillas from their expansive menu. Our waiter informed us that there was another street corn option in a bowl, but we opted for the corn on the cob option as it was less expensive. However, we regretted our decision as the bowl would definitely have been easier to eat. Everything was presented nicely and my ohana quesadillas were pretty good, although I wish I had gotten it without bacon and the brisket as those components became overwhelming midway through the meal. Overall, Ho'brah is a solid Mexican spot on the island, but nothing was mindblowing about the restaurant. read more

Amazing service! Quick and reliable. Went on karaoke night and had the most fun! The margs are delicious. Definitely coming back !

Kim took great care of us and the cocktails were great. We also appreciate the quick service :-)

I've been here several times over the years but something is different, not sure if they recently went under new management, changed cooks, but the food and menu has been elevated. Even the chips and guac is hitting different. Chips are so fresh, warm, tasty, guac is seasoned well. I'm so here for this! I recommend the new Buffalo chicken taco, dirty bird taco, brisket taco, quesadilla birria, tostones with all the fixings. I basically recommend for lunch/tapas. Space is clean, kid friendly. Check it out. read more

I came to this restaurant because it was recommended to me. My daughter and I ordered a burrito and my other daughter ordered a kids taco. We all liked the food as it was presented nicely and had good flavor. The 2 stars is for the poor service. We ordered Salsa, chips and guacamole to start with. When that was finished, my daughter asked for more guacamole to have with her burrito. The waitress brought out a whole new bowl of chips, salsa and guacamole, not saying that we would be charged extra. When the bill came, we were charged for 2 starters. She said the guacamole is $12 each for a small bowl because of the high price for avocados. I've been to many restaurants and the most I've paid for a side of guacamole is about $6. The drinks ( iced tea) were not free for refills and we were charged each time a new one was brought. Again, the waitress said nothing. read more

Staten Island Staple We came around 7:30 on Sunday evening and got seated outside right away. Really liked the chill ambiance of this place. I brought Maheen to this Staten Island staple since she was craving tacos. Both of us really liked the ambiance and sat outside since the weather was great. Definitely recommend bringing a date or grabbing a drink with friends here. Even though we had a full spread you can definitely get away ordering drinks and apps. Also, a very friendly server! Moderately priced tacos, but you get your bang for your buck! Since the tacos are so elaborate, it's good to eat them in house. Shrimp empanada - Crunchy shell, deep fried paired well with the savory filling. Don't skip using the dipping sauce it comes with. We both loved this one Thunderbird - well seasoned chicken with a zesty lime flavor, also this is a heavy packed taco some might need to use both hands to eat this. Classic cali fish taco- deep fried mini fish filet with a nice chipotle mayo drizzle and slaw inside the taco Captain Jack - At this point we had over ordered, Pickled Onions added a nice vinegary flavor to the fried shrimp. Acidity from the onions balances the oil of a fried shrimp. read more

Good place for beer! Tacos are just OK. Fun atmosphere. Gets crowded on Friday and Saturdays.

First restaurant I ever went to on Staten Island, but this was really good. Who knew you'd find really good tacos and empanadas here. The shrimp empanadas were the best think I had. The nachos plate was nice. The tacos were good too. I had gotten the captain jack, the americano, and the sunset pork. I think the captain jack was the best of the bunch. Nice crispy fish. The pork was marinated well. The americano reminded me of a more typical taco. Margarita wise. They didn't have the flight which would have been nice to try each of the flavors. I ended up doing the watermelon and cucumber jalapeño frozen margaritas. They melted a little fast but they were good flavors. The watermelon was less flavorful but still refreshing. The outdoor space was good and the staff were extremely friendly and attentive. Definitely would go back again. read more

Ho'Brah - First time. Will let you know how it is. - Mexican Near Me - West Brighton, New York

Love love love this place! The place is super cute and the decor is very welcoming. The drinks are very strong and delicious. I suggest the coconut margarita. The chorizo Mac and cheese small plate was beyond flavorful and actually bigger than you think. Perfect for an entree. Parking is super difficult, but if you have the patience then you will eventually find something. read more

I was craving tacos and elote so my boyfriend and I decided to stop by here to pick up some take out to go. We had previously came here over the summer to have a sit down meal. The place itself is very cozy and a pretty spacious. Their menu has a wide variety of items but it is definitely more expensive than the hole-in-the-wall type of taco places. We went with the elote which is definitely a must in my books. It fixed my craving and it was super yummy and they do ask you if you want it chopped into smaller piece or just the one piece of corn. Their empanadas were alright and slightly on the expensive side of being 2 for $7. Their nachos were pretty good - the chips were super crispy and the flavors were good. For tacos, I really liked the Captain Jack taco, the shrimp was really crispy and the flavor was good. The other two tacos we got were the Americano and Dirty Bird which I found to be pretty mediocre. I definitely had better tacos in other places for a cheaper prices, but tacos here are more "unique" but I do find them to be hit or miss. Some of the tacos are definitely really yummy but I feel like the other ones fall short. Overall, it is a pretty decent place for tacos, but I definitely have other places that I like more. read more

The atmosphere is great, sometimes it can great a little load. Overall, the experience was pleasant and I enjoy coming here. We ordered veggie nachos for the table, and I ordered chicken quesadillas. We only ordered veggie version of the nachos because there was a vegetarian in the group. I do feel like my chicken quesadillas were dry. There good but they could of been moister. For drinks, I always recommend the margaritas. read more

I'm a huge fan of their Bay Ridge location besides the fact that they're so busy all the time. Figured we give this location a try cause it's so much bigger and more convenient for my friend that was already in Staten Island. We were all sadly disappointed. we got seated right away and they did get busy on a Tuesday night. I got four tacos, the long beach, dirty bird, bohemian, and the classic cali taco. The steak in the Long Beach taco was cooked very well done and dry. It was very tough to eat. The chicken in the bohemian taco was very moist and not in a good way, the water or whatever stew the shredded chicken was braised in leaked through the soft taco tortilla and ripped it making it pretty difficult to eat. My friends had the same issues. Their chips were good though, served warm and tasted fresh. Honestly don't think we'll be back because the quality of their tacos just weren't the same as what we're used to from their Bay Ridge location. read more

Ho Brah is a casual but fun place. Fish tacos, birria, and naked burritos are highly recommended.

My favorite Mexican food restaurant. Love their both locations, this and the one in bay ridge, Brooklyn. Definitely order their pulled pork quesadilla! Love the Bloody Mary, if you can handle spicy food well. Lol Waitresses are sweet and friendly. read more

Great mexican spot! Got the mission bay burrito with chipotle chicken which was very well wrapped (not falling apart) and hit the spot without overfilling me. Some of my friends I was with got the wet burrito which looked amazing as well. They have a nice selection of drinks . I had the cadillac margarita which was very tasty but they had others on the menu that looked great too. Service was excellent as well. Waitress was very friendly and we got our food pretty fast. Clearly handling indoor dining very well. Overall- great spot if you're looking for good mexican food and drinks in the West Brighton/north shore area! read more

we made an order today for lunch and we made an order of an americano, a fish taco lunch orders; they conjoined both tacos and didnt give me each as the lunch special or chips. When we called to let them know what they did, they wanted to give us store credit. They couldnt credit my cc back unless they cancelled the order altogether and charge a different card. They are hard of hearing and messed up my managers order. read more

I need to say tonight probably wouldn't be the best night to do take out from Ho Brah on Cinco de Mayo. Well I did anyway, was craving it. I must say Monica not only got everything correct her hospitality was great. Everything was perfectly packaged and correct besides having music blaring in her ear. I definitely been here before and always excellent service but tonight was exceptional and not one mistake. I will definitely be coming back more often. Thank you Monica for your outstanding customer service. read more

Service was lacking and food was just ok...Mexican street corn is a delight when done right but this felt like something out of a can, and not a thing we ordered was seasoned to my expectations, it wasn't bad but it also wasn't worth the money in my opinion read more

This place is near me and super convenient to grab food and drinks. NOTE: the happy hour on the menu pictures on yelp is no longer valid. I was kind of upset at this because 2 and 3 dollar tacos sounded amazing but apparently the lunch special ends at 3:30 (no clue when it starts). The tacos are BOMB! The pork taco, fish, and shrimp tacos were my fave but they were super filling and flavorful! I definitely would go back for more! The margaritas are strong and yummy! I've tried the blueberry, pineapple ginger, and cucumber! Loved them all, pineapple ginger was def my fave! They get a bit pricey when not under happy hour though ($11) but for happy hour it's $6 and well worth it. Overall I liked this spot, the service could be friendlier but regardless I'll be back for the tacos and margaritas for lunch special and happy hour. read more
