Food was excellent, server David let my girlfriend and I know the portion size were big and recommended splitting items. Drinks were tasty and well balanced. Definitely coming back with a bigger group to try everything. read more

I've had Oxomoco on my culinary bucket list for over a year now and the stars finally aligned for me to enjoy their amazing cuisine ans ambience. Coñooooooo....what an experience for your taste buds! Feast on their Suadero Tacos and Lamb barbacoa if you loved perfectly cooked meet and spice balance. Their Sweet pea torta was creamy, dreamy and like a work of edible floral art in your mouth. The smoked cherry tomatoes "made" their guacamole the perfect accompaniment for my mezcalita. Our server offered great suggestions from their extensive mezcal menu and checked in an appropriate amount of times despite the front of house crowd. Sharing is caring when it comes to dessert, but we doubled up with their Chocolate cake with espresso ice cream and Mango Tres Leches so no one would feel deprived. I can't wait to come back for a happy hour or special occasion. read more

everything on the menu was amazing, portions are on the smaller size considering the pricing, however all items were fresh, well made and with great presentation. the dessert menu is a verbal menu that i believe changes often. only issue was kitchen closes at 10p (yes even on saturday). i made a reservation for 930p and was not notified prior to my reservation luckily i had reviewed the menu prior so i was able to quickly order my items before the kitchen closed for the evening. read more

I've been wanting to come here for sometime, and glad I finally did. The ambiance is one in which you can have a birthday dinner, date night, or just catch up with friends - it's spacious but also intimate. We ordered several small plates including the soya marinated tuna tostada, maitake Arabella, and taco arabe, and one large dish which was the half roasted chicken. While it was recommended we order 4-5 small plates for two people, the amount of dishes we ordered felt like too many for two people and we were stuffed. All the food was delicious and well seasoned- the flavor definitely came from the seasoning more than the actual ingredients. The tortillas seemed fresh made and were light and airy. Of all the dishes, the soya marinated tuna tostada was likely our favorite. Our server was also nice and came by to check on us a few times. Overall everyone was friendly and I would definitely come back. read more

I found myself at Oxomoco for an early dinner and to catch up with my brothers. One of them works in Brooklyn, and since we were off we decided to make the drive out there to meet him. The reviews and pics looked great, so I was looking forward to checking this Michelin-starred establishment out. I really like the aesthetics of Oxomoco. The dining room is a decent size - with an outdoor area immediately upon entry and the main dining room shortly after that. The space is bright with a mostly white color scheme; the skylights bring in a good amount of natural light and the bar provides an attractive focal point. We started with drinks - I went simple and ordered a margarita. It was pretty good but nothing too outstanding. The food is all meant to be shared, arranged in a single section on the menu with the plate size increasing as you continue reading. Our server recommended two to three dishes each - so we decided on 6 total of varying sizes. We ultimately decided on the peekytoe crab tostada, guacamole, scallop and hiramasa aguachile, two tacos: shrimp and arabe, and the pork carintas. Everything was really delicious - it's hard to choose my favorites because the dishes were so strong, but I'll try. The arabe tacos and pork carnitas were my favorites - the meats were tender and paired with a lot of complements to enhance the overall dishes. The aguachile and guac were also standouts - super fresh and the chips served with each were substantial. The shrimp tacos and crab tostada were the weaker dishes IMO, but still better than average. For dessert, we got something that I unfortunately do not remember the name of - but it was layered with a brownie, a thick custard product, and ice cream. Whatever the name, it was delicious and the perfect finisher to our meal. Service was good - everyone was friendly and food came out at a good pace. They also did a great job describing each dish as it was served which really enhanced the experience. Overall, I had a great time at Oxomoco - the food was delicious, the aesthetics were fresh, and the service was on point. Well worth the trip out to BK - I would definitely return. read more

The food here was quite good. However, considering the price and the Michelin status, I would have expected it to be much better. The guacamole was really good, however I wish we received more. The wagyu tacos were all right. The meat was a little chewier than I would have liked, but I did think the carnitas plate was the best thing we ordered, Besides the chocolate cake dessert, that was amazing. The service and ambiance were really nice. However, none of the food really impressed me considering the price and Michelin status. read more

Oxomoco never disappoints. I've visited a few times for both brunch and dinner and each of my visits have been consistently excellent. The service is friendly and accommodating and the atmosphere is airy, open, simplistic and rustic with great lighting. Theres outdoor seating, though dining indoors brings the outside in with its sun roof that adds to the overall ambiance. The margaritas here are made perfectly, and honestly some of the best I've had in the city. I specifically love the guava one, though all cocktails here are good. The kitchen prefers for the entire order to be placed at once, with an exception for the guacamole so you can start with that. The guac itself is incredible. You mix the cheese in yourself and you're left with an incredible dip with tangy notes from the smoky cherry tomatoes and queso fresco. For this particular visit we ordered the Caesar salad which is a bit deconstructed with large lettuce stalks but also totally delightful. For mains, the soya tuna tostada is not to be skipped, as are the lamb tacos. For the heck of it, we also threw in an order of the steak tacos. The tostada is delicate but delivers a mighty adventure for your taste buds. It's flavors blend together perfectly. You'll leave thinking about it, wishing you had at least one more. Personally the lamb tacos stood out more to me than steak, though you can't go wrong with the menu here. I'd also say throw in an order of the patatas bravas, because when in Mexico Oxomoco is a Brooklyn foodie staple. Run don't walk. read more

Oxomoco absolutely deserves the Came here with friends last night and everything from the service to the food was fantastic. I loved the calming, modern decor and the noise level was a bit too high at times, but manageable. I loved every cocktail we tried: guava margarita, Alma de dos tierras, espíritu del otoño, último adiós Every dish we tried was fresh and delicious: The chips with the variety of salsas and heat levels was a fun game of spice roulette. I loved the use of fresh herbs on the scallop aguachile. The tuna tartare tostada was uniquely prepared and had great flavor. Finally, the taco árabe was phenomenal and the perfect end to the meal. I would definitely return for the seasonal menu changes! And shout out to our amazing server Sydney for making it a great experience and patiently answering all of our questions. read more

Came to Oxomoco for my birthday dinner and had a lovely time. The interior is dim and green. Loved that they had plenty of unique vegetarian options. - Mushroom Tlayuda (5/5) - We both loved this so much and considered ordering a second. Packed with tons of flavor and very easy to share. Sadly I think they may have removed this from the menu since - Artichoke Tacos (4.5/5) - These were crispy & flavorful - Pineapple Cocktail (4.5/5) - Didn't catch the name, but the pineapple cocktail I had was refreshing. A fantastic spot for creative Mexican food with plenty of veggie options. Had to plan early to get a reservation on weekend night but was perfect for a special meal. The only con is that it is quite pricey espeically for the portion sizes. read more

We ended up going to Oxomoco for date night, and it was the perfect pick! The staff was super friendly, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the food hit all the right notes for a summer evening. They recently had a fire in the grill area, so unfortunately some of the slow-cooked dishes weren't available -- but honestly, everything we did try was phenomenal. You can tell the quality and creativity are still top-tier. The standout for us was the tuna tostada -- seriously a must-try! Now we totally get the hype and can't wait to go back when the full menu is available again. read more

4.5 On a whim, we decided to see if we can get a table at Oxomoco. Walking in around 7:30 on a Saturday night, we were able to score 2 seats at the bar. The vibe is relaxed, but yet elegant and the staff is just lovely. Looking at the menu, it was smaller and more seafood heavy than we expected. Little did we know at the time, they had a fire recently that affected their cooking ventilation system so they had to pare down the menu because of it. With that said, I was not left wanting for anything. The Margarita was well made, but I wouldn't call it the best I've had. We started off with the guacamole. A largish bowl, served with 4 round fried blue tortillas. Topped with cilantro, cherry tomato compote and queso fresco, the guacamole was super creamy, but warning very spicy. It was delicious, but I did wish it was a bit more mild in the spice area. For our entree, the Conchinita Pibil Platter was perfect for sharing. It is presented as a make your own taco bar. Served with a nice portion of stewed pork, black beans, blue corn tortillas, cherry tomatoes and pickled red onions, chicharons and a habanero salsa. It was all incredible. When I say I have never had pork, so expertly cooked and seasoned, it just melted in your mouth and the flavors were hitting all the marks. Building a taco with all the items offered was just an explosion of flavor and it was amazing. We were still talking about how good it was on our walk back to the car. It'd be hard to go back and not order the dish again, but I'd be excited to see what the full menu has to offer once it's back. read more

Very nice lounge vibe, modern style of Mexican! It was a Saturday night around 8 o'clock, we were lucky got a table for 4! Nice and smart service, food was good! I recommend to order Cochinita a pibil meal for 3 to even 4 people. And maybe one more of snacks! If you would like to drink more. We had a fun time! Just to consider the high price- fancy enough for just a one potion of tacos for $25. But you can ask to the waiter for the kind advices! read more

Food here was excellent. Service was top notch. Our server, Sidney, was very helpful and knowledgeable. Overall, we really enjoyed our experience. The dishes are very flavorful. Only 1 dish was on the spicier side (swordfish tacos), otherwise it was very balanced. The cocktails are also creative and not too sweet. Had to try one of the frozen drinks and it was so refreshing, not sweet. We had the cucumber mint. On our visit, we enjoyed the guacamole, popcorn, swordfish tacos, artichoke tacos, lamb tacos, soft shell crab tacos, aguachile, strawberries and cream, and the chocolate cake. Hard to choose our favorite dishes since we liked everything we ate. I especially enjoyed the soft shelled crab tacos, he the lamb tacos. The strawberry and cream dessert was out of this world. read more

The swordfish tacos absolutely made me see why this place has a star. They were incredible -- sweet, spicy, perfect consistency. We also enjoyed the massive frozen drinks and chips/salsa sampler. The tuna tostada was also another stand out, though less unique to this restaurant in particular. It's a little bit of a hike for us to get out to greenpoint but I look forward to coming back! read more

Have been here twice over the years and absolutely loved it - though I will say a few things have been cycled out of the menu though I imagine the new additions are just as delightful. I would highly recommend the caesar salad as the lettuce is perfectly crunchy, the dressing tart and punchy, and the crumbs on top add just the right texture. The tuna tostada and pollo a las brazas are both great. I've had two different tlayudas - both great though not sure which they have available now. ALSO, the salsas are wicked spicy though a wonderful topping to a the extra crispy totopos. I'll definitely have to come back soon but would highly recommend! Also, the chocolate cake is divine! read more

Pleasantly surprised to get a last minute reservation here when our friend was in town. The tacos were the last dish to come out but easily our favorite thing!

Always a great time at Oxomoco. Third time coming here. I love the chips and salsa platter for the variety with my favorite salsa macha. Everything else was amazing and the cocktails are perfect. Carrot cake with mole caramel was delicious with an exquisitely light cream on top. Loved everything.

went for brunch on a sunday and this spot did not disappoint!!! we did family style to optimize trying a few things the salad was crunchy. a bit annoying to cut the romaine ourselves but it was a good caesar the tuna tostada was my favorite. the texture and crunch hit so well. the tuna absolutely melted into my mouth, this is a must have the pancake was a close second. not too sweet and perfectly fluffy. the grainy corn bread texture added a nice touch the tacos were incredible with the spicy sauce. shockingly the tortilla didn't get soggy at all!!! so much flavor yet so simple service was great, food came out quick- would recommend and come back again read more

service and ambiance is great. as expected for a spot with a michelin star. some of tortillas are made in house and offer new flavors from most mexican places. the lunch menu was good too and offered different options although i wouldnt go back again for lunch as it didnt feel too special compared to the dinner menu. if you think if it as a fine dining restaurant its good but i think comparitely to the mexican food you get in california the price increase isnt proportional enough to the tastes increase. read more

Okay yes I came back less than a month later. There were a few things on the menu that I was still thinking about. And also. One thing that was hiding!! Which is a must try. This time around it dawned on me that the plating is very brutalist. It's a matter of fact. Look at the art (food) matter of fact. My appreciation grew stronger. What's hiding on the menu is the black sesame horchata. It's down below the sodas!! What!! It should truly be front and center on the drink menu. If you're extremely hungry the chorizo burrito is a must. If you're flavor-curious then chips and salsa is your calling. Everything is delicious, again. read more

Beachy, trendy Michelin-starred Mexican restaurant in Greenpoint with a patio. The dining room is absolutely stunning. We started off with the frozen margs, lime & mango, super refreshing and beautifully presented. Standout dishes: chips & salsas - featuring 6 different kinds of salsas, tuna tostada, the fried and brined chicken with red rice, and don't forget to order carrot cake (the best way to end the meal!) One thing of note: service is great. Part of my party was running late and they still seated us and were accommodating. read more

As a Michelin starred restaurant, I was extremely excited - this was my first time! My friend and I came here for brunch - I didn't realize their brunch menu is about half the size of their dinner menu. Being a pescatarian, there were limited options, as the only items on the menu were tuna tostada and vegetarian items. My friend and I shared the tuna tostada - it was flavorful with lots of chili oil. I got the mushroom dish - it was very okay. Service was very fast Overall for the price, it seemed a bit pricey for what I had. I will come back to try their dinner menu. read more

This is it. By far some of the best Mexican food I've had in the city. The food is no joke and they have a Michelin star, which is so impressive coupled with the fact that it isn't exorbitantly expensive! I was able to make a reservation for brunch. While the menu was a bit smaller than I expected, every single thing we ordered was so flavorful and delicious. We tried the: Caesar salad (which was no typical salad. Served on halved romaines that were GRILLED and perfectly smoky and aromatic with freshly grated cotija), the chilaquiles which were the best I've had and very flavorful, and the arrechera tacos which had a surprising chili crunch topping added to it and featured the most perfectly cooked steak. We were perfectly sated and happy after trying this spot. The service was also attentive and friendly, and the space is beautiful with white washed walls, skylights, and faux foliage hanging from the ceiling. Bright and perfect for a sunny Saturday brunch. Would be curious what it looks like in the evening. Such a great place to impress for a date night, etc. I would 100% come back again. read more

Finally made it to Oxomoco and it was worth it. Every dish we tried was delicious. The carnitas were soft and tender and the crushed chicharron adds a nice texture to them. The drinks were on point. I loved their guava margarita with mezcal. The mango tress leches cake was refreshing. Would definitely return to try some of the other dishes and drinks. read more

This place sucks ass. We ordered legit everything and it all came on the same cement ass chip and it tasted like dry hard sand. We ordered this veggie ass fucking Tostada.. if you're Mexican RUN THIS IS NOT THE PLACE AND ITS ACTUALLY VERGONZOSO!!! Not cheap at all for what it was. Actually gross. read more

Remarkable experience from start to finish. The menu reminded me of eating at Hartwood in Tulum. The best dish was a carrot tostado. Everything was fresh, with just the right amount of spice and cheese. The waitress overheard it was our birthday and she brought out a surprise, complimentary dessert of berries, frozen ice and cream. read more

The food was incredible! I can't speak enough to pretty much every dish, but especially the lamb tacos. I generally steer clear of lamb, but the server sold me on them so I tried it. The most tender lamb I've ever had. The one food item I might pass on was the smoked mango. Besides that, everything was delicious. Try everything. And the inside has a cool vibe, and their outdoor space on a good weather day is great too! read more

Overall a fantastic Mexican restaurant in Greenpoint! We ordered 4 dishes to share between the two of us and we thought it was more than enough! - Salad:10/10 (fantastic salad! Love love loved the sauce and the crispness of the lettuce. Kind of wished they cut up the salad before serving though, but I understand that it's prettier this way.) - Chicken: 10/10 (the chicken was cooked to perfection! The skin was crispy, the meat was soft, and the crispy rice on the side was fantastic.) - Fish tacos: 10/10 (loved the fish and toppings!) - Tuna tostada: 10/10 (loved the seasoning on the tuna and the crispness of the taco at the bottom of the tuna!) - Spicy mango margarita: 9/10 (solid spicy margarita) Vibe was very casual chic, but it did get noisy because it was so busy. I might check out the heated terrace the next time I come back! Service was great! read more

11/10 - absolutely loved my experience at Oxomoco! I made a last minute to come here due to my friend's recommendation and I do not regret it one bit! Food: DELICIOUS. Vibes: IMMACULATE. Service: good enough LOL. We got the tuna tostada, guacamole, and for the tacos we got the swordfish and lamb barbacoa. - Tuna Tostada: sauuuur good! The texture of the tuna was so unctuous and the sesame seeds + salsa macha helped with cutting through the fatty tuna and adding some texture. Bonus points for the salsa macha lowkey tasting like lao gan ma LOL - Guacamole: I have never been in a situation where I have way more guac than chips, but the value of this dish is insane. I definitely saved all the extra guac to dip my tacos into. The marinated (?) tomatoes were a stand out as well. - Lamb barbacoa tacos: I would say out of all the items we got, I was probably least impressed by this but it was still a very yummy dish! The lamb was very tender, the tacos were well-seasoned. The lamb was also not gamey at all - I personally like the gamey taste of lamb, which is why I think this dish left less of an impression, but could be a plus for other people!! Generous portions as well - Swordfish taco: Phenomenal!! Amazing!!! I have never seen swordfish on a taco so I defs wanted to try it, esp as Oxomoco is known for their seafood. Needless to say, I was not disappointed. Like everything, the balance of flavours were on point. The seasoning on the outside of the fish created a bit of a crust and provided a delicate spiciness, and the cook on the fish was A++. - My friend also got a drink but tbh I don't remember what he got but he said it was good!! Honestly I could wax poetic all day about this place but I'll end the essay here LOL. Bonus points for having a disco ball in the bathroom if you're a fan of the mirror selfie like meeee!! read more

Oxomoco has been one of my staples for a while but this latest experience was not great. Cocktails still amazing, service on point, but the food was cold. Everyone that came out was come including tacos which I sent back and still came out cold. The place wasn't busy so it seems like a lack of focus on quality. I want to root for them but I need to take a pause until they regroup and can deliver what I've come to love. read more

I've walked past Oxomoco many times before finally deciding to make a reservation. I arrived on a Sunday evening right when they opened, and to my surprise, there was already a line outside. The restaurant is small and cozy, with a mix of tables, bar seating, and a chef's counter. Unfortunately, I didn't find the staff particularly welcoming. One staff member, in particular, seemed like he wasn't enjoying his job, which was a bit off-putting. Now, onto the food! Each taco order includes two tacos. I'll preface this by saying I eat a lot, and despite being warned about over-ordering, I went all in--so here's the rundown: * Chips and Salsa: A must-order! The chips were freshly made, incredibly crunchy, and perfectly salted. The variety of salsas and sauces was impressive, and every single one was absolutely delicious. * Oxomoco Guacamole: A classic and well-executed dish. The guacamole was fresh and flavorful, made with whole heirloom cherry tomatoes and served with a side of chips. * Mushroom Tlayuda: Skip this one. It's essentially a thin-crust mushroom pizza with red sauce, but the flavors didn't work well together in my opinion. * Coctel de Mariscos: This is similar to ceviche and had a tasty, flavorful sauce. However, the portions were small, with the seafood cut into bite-sized pieces. * Swordfish Tacos: Soft, tender, and cooked to perfection. A solid choice. * Shrimp Tacos (Special): Outstanding! The fried shrimp was slightly charred, flavorful, juicy, and absolutely addictive. * Pollo a las Brazas: This was the juiciest chicken I've had in a while, with fantastic flavors. The crispy red rice it was served with was a great accompaniment. It's a generous entree, likely half a chicken, and well worth ordering. As for the drinks, the cocktails were just okay, and the wine menu was limited with not many options. I also noticed that some items listed on the online menu were unavailable in person, which was a little disappointing. Overall, I'd come back for the chips and salsa and to explore more of their taco options. However, it's not a spot I'd go out of my way for unless I was already in the area. read more

From the moment you enter the Michelin Starred Oxomoco the wood-fired grill catches your eye. But it's not just for display, the drum of burning embers shapes the entire profile of the menu. We started with the Kampachi Aguachile - crisp, fresh, brightly acidic and a spice level that was well balanced without being overwhelming. For the main courses we went with the Wagyu Beef Cheeks and the Catch of the Day Tacos. The depth of flavor on the Wagyu Beef Cheeks was out of this world complex - you could taste just how long-cooked and richly textured the boldly seasoned beef was. The Catch of the Day was Sea Bass which had a beautifully charred crust that was again intensely bold from a seasoning aspect. The Oaxacan Chocolate Cake was the perfect ending to the meal. The dense, almost pudding-like cake pair expertly with the coffee ice cream, cajeta and goat milk caramel. Already salivating about my next visit so I can sample around more of the Oxomoco menu! read more

Five stars, top to bottom, even with a more "limited" menu thanks to the ongoing work from their kitchen fire. Favorite bites: crab tostada, beet tostada, carnitas, mushroom taco, flourless chocolate cake I thought the tuna tostada with caviar ($48 ) WAS good but not as good as it needs to be at the price tag, and not better than any of the above bites. Also tried the popcorn and tacos arabes, and the sesame dessert. They have a kids plate with quesadillas, black beans, and avocado too. Excellent for gluten free folks, as most of the menu is GF as is or can be modified to be gluten free. Also really recommend the salsa starter so you can then add salsa to the rest of your meal. read more

Well-deserved reputation for not just the best Mexican food in NYC, but also the most unique. You won't find these dishes anywhere else, and they are all delicious.

I came here in a group of 4 to share the restaurant's most popular plates and had such a great dining experience! Food: -Oxomoco guacamole: Can't go wrong with this as an appetizer and it was nice and flavorful and smooth. -Punta verde Caesar: Fun take on a Caesar salad. It's served on a chunk of romaine (rather than cut up into smaller pieces) and generously coated in salad dressing. I loved the cotija masa crunch since it added a nice crispy texture. -Lamb barbacoa tacos: Delicious tacos with lamb that was well cooked. -Soya marinated tuna tostada: I was looking forward to this the most and it did not disappoint. One of my favorite dishes. The tuna was so fresh and full of flavor. A bit on the saltier side though but still good -Pollo a las brazas: Another one of my favorite dishes. The chicken was juicy and it was served with crispy rice on the side which was also delicious. Also comes with tortillas and was a generous portion for sharing. The servers were friendly and we didn't have to wait too long for our food to come out. They had both indoor and outdoor dining, but the outdoor spots were heated which was nice. Overall, everything we ordered tasted good. However, I don't think I was wowed enough for me to NEED to come back considering the higher prices. But would definitely come back if someone suggested coming here. read more
