    Chicken Tortilla Soup :)

    Enough Said ! Chicken Tortilla Soup slaps. Flower Power margarita was tasty, refreshing, and left me with a buzz

    Been passing by this place for sometime now since my girlfriend moved to this part of Bushwick. The ambiance from outside always made it look like a fun place to eat so went for tacos on a Tuesday and were so pleasantly surprised. The happy hour deal is a very good one, especially if you're drinking one of the delicious drinks. I went with a paloma and it was super tasty. Nice salt rim and a refreshing cocktail. We split some guac and esquite, both very very good. The chips were warm and great tortillas to muhc on. I went with a chicharron taco, grilled fish taco and the chorizo taco. All 3 were stellar! The chorizo was spicy and a superbly filled with meat. The fish taco had a really great and bright flavor, the green sauce really paired with the perfectly cooked fish. The chicharron taco was insane. It was my favorite and it was both of our favorite bites. What a delicious flavor profile with great bites. The self-service / bartender service / not really sure what I'm supposed to do with service style left a lot to be desired but after my first time, no qualms about going back for brunch or just for more delicious tacos.

    This location IS STILL OPEN for delivery. I called to confirm and then I placed an order through Grubhub. The food is very good, however I'm a little upset at what i received at the price i paid. The tacos are great in flavor but you only get 1 tortilla so the taco does not hold together and it falls apart and makes a big mess. That's totally not how I eat my tacos. The corn is super delicious. Here's where my jaw dropped, when I opened the Flautas i found 2 small rolled up taquitos. I couldn't believe I received ONLY 2, with some lettuce and a little guacamole. That is a complete rip off for $9. You mean to tell me I paid $4.50 per taquitos? It is great tasting but totally not worth paying that much. If I would've known it was $9 for 2 I would've just got 2 more tacos. Long story short, don't order Flautas unless you don't have a big appetite because you only get 2 for $9. The tacos only come with 1 tortilla so it'll fall apart into pieces and you'll end up finishing it with a fork. You don't get a Big Bang for your buck here but the food is good.

    Looking towards the back of the place.

    Came here feeling a little hungry before a music show across the street. Glad I did. My visit here was fairly quick, but here are my thoughts. Options for tacos are plentiful and reasonably priced. I had an al pastor taco and a chorizo taco. The al pastor was just ok, but the chorizo was pretty good. Note that if you get the chorizo taco, it's going to be spicy. I appreciated that considering I really couldn't work out which hot sauce to use. They're all in squeeze bottles in a mini fridge and can help yourself. The problem is that they're not really labeled well. As much as I wanted some hot sauce on my taco, I didn't want to roll the dice and up with Da Bomb. Staff was friendly. Self service water in the back. Good options for spirits. Plenty of good seating. Bathroom has a communal sink. If you're in the area and hungry, I'd recommend stopping in. For sure it's going to be better than some of the fast food options surrounding it.

    One of the owners responded to our review saying "I hope you don't have children," because we left a negative review, even though they know I am pregnant. We kept our review strictly about the service, and they responded with such a vile remark. If you look at their other negative reviews you can see them responding rudely and vindictively multiple times instead of having a constructive response.

Our reservation was for 8:30pm, but we arrived early and Alejandra, the hostess, was incredibly welcoming and accommodating. Even though she was ready to seat us, we decided to hang at the bar until the rest of our party arrived and that was the perfect move. Alkarys behind the bar was top-tier. She recommended the Siempre Reposado, and let me tell you... smooth, clean, dangerously good. If you're into tequila, that's a must. Now let's talk about the food. We ordered the quesadilla, rajas, tamales, tacos, and the queso fundido and every single dish hit. The queso fundido came out bubbling, rich, perfectly melted with that pull you want when you scoop it up. The tamales were moist and packed with flavor, wrapped beautifully and clearly made with care. The rajas had that perfect balance of roasted pepper sweetness and savory depth. The tacos? Authentic, well-seasoned, and layered with flavor, no shortcuts. Even the quesadilla stood out, crispy on the outside with that perfectly melted interior. Everything felt traditional, elevated but still true to its roots. You can taste the authenticity. Service was attentive without being overbearing, the ambiance was super casual and laid back, the kind of Brooklyn spot you pull up to for a real dinner experience, not just a quick bite. Highly recommend this place if you're out and about in Brooklyn. Definitely coming back for the tequila, the queso fundido, and round two of those tacos. I'm gonna try eating at the bar to check out the spot in the front of the house.

AMBIANCE: Walking to the restaurant from the subway, it's located on an unassuming block at the corner of 4th St and Havemeyer in Williamsburg, front of store doesn't particularly stand out. Walking in they've decorated with creative, crafty (in a good way) touches--the multitude of ropes draped from the ceiling add dimension to the ceiling and the bar back wall is composed of wood pieces forming a multi-colored herringbone pattern. Textured glass pendant lights hanging from the ceiling throw mini geometric patterns across the dark walls, and vibrant canvas artworks add pictorial interest along the walls. FOOD: YUM. I can see why this place was jam packed on a Saturday night, and reservations are needed. Strong recommendation for their tasting menu at $58 pp, what a delightful meal! 8 sharing dishes and 3 desserts were perfect for a party of five, and drinks are separate though you can add a cocktail pairing for $47. For each main they provide a serving per person, and the desserts are shared. I came hungry and was so full by the end of the meal--everything was delicious! - grapefruit guacamole w/house-made chips: the grapefruit chunks were "meaty" and surprisingly went really well with the guac, it added a different citrus element than the usual lime. Comes with a small bowl of maybe 6-7 chips and we asked for two chips refills since the chips to guac and salsa ratio was low. - spicy faroe islands' salmon tartar: tasty and I liked the latin flavors and corn, snow peas, a touch of wasabi. Flavors of the sesame-soy-truffle-lemon vin and crema got a little muddled. Relatively more "generic" dish of the evening though I was here for it! Any dish with fresh tender salmon, I can't complain. - blue crab and carrot tostada, generous shredded crab salad on top of freshly crisp blue corn tortilla. Topped with pumpkin seeds, dill, cilantro, and saffron-orange aioli. - three cheese & artichoke 'queso fundido': served in a very hot ceramic pot and super melty and delicious, eaten with the fluffy grilled pita and green apple slices + salsa. One of the top picks of the evening. - roasted bone marrow and chorizo, served as tacos with fresh blue corn tortillas, and added a sprinkle of pickled onions--does that sound amazing? Bc it was AAHMAZING. - spicy chipotle-guajillo shimp 'diablo' (not spicy): served with pumpkin tortillas and three accompaniments on the side--mushroom chile crisp, horseradish crema, celery 'salsa macha". Part 2 to make your own tacos was another hit! Our entire table agreed if they sold the sauce for the shrimp we'd all buy it. - heritage pork osso bucco 'carnitas' with Fall-spiced black mole, sour cherry mostardo, calabrian chile pesto: cue drooling now. This part 3 of the tacos was served on pumpkin tortillas; the meat was practically falling off the bone, tender, juicy and flavorful. - buffalo-style com 'elote: sooo good too! A little messier to eat since it comes drizzled with spicy hot sauce butter, feta, lime aioli, cilantro, though totally worth it! - Desserts: --green tea matcha churros: comes with two little pots of spiced mexican chocolate & passion fruit sauce. Warm, sugary and crisp without being too sweet. --pumpkin spiced-vanilla flan: topped with sour cherries, cocoa nibs & toasted seed 'trail mix", if you love flan you'll love this, so smooth and creamy with a bit of crunch and tang from the cherries. --pistachio tres leches cake with cream cheese frosting, raspberry, using an olive oil cake: we all agreed this was probably the best tres leches we've ever had. The pistachio nuttiness and the creaminess from the milks paired well. SERVICE: Very friendly and attentive service though it was very loud in the restaurant and they had to really shout. There was a delay in the middle of our meal I think bc kitchen was slammed, after the entree we waited about 35 min for our desserts. Considering they limited the seating to 2 hours and about half of our party arrived 20 min late, and accounting for the long wait pre-dessert, they did us solid by extending our table time by about an hour in total. Also great that they brought the first dessert out with a candle for my friend's birthday.

    A trendy spot for modern Mexican eats! Everything was baseline yummy, standouts include Blue Crab…read moreTostada, Shrimp and Scallop Tacos and Tiramisu Tres Leches. Vegetarian options were super great too, and decent selection. We ordered à la carte, but there's a chef's tasting menu for $63 which feels well worth.
