I had the short ribs and they were flavorful and perfectly cooked. Service was attentive without being intrusive. Restaurant could use a little refreshing of its interior though. The upper west side location is more pleasant.4/5/2013 12:00:00 AMLet's be honnest, I m reallyLet's be honnest, I m really not a specialist of Mexican food and I don't know what is "typical" or not, yet what I got it this restaurant was far from what I got in the other mexican restaurants I went before ! Ok I admit we began with a guacamole, prepared right in front of us that was perfect way to begin but the Mexico City Street Salad with Barbecued Tuna Loin was outstanding ! Fresh, tasty, Piquante but not too much, just perfect ! And according to the reaction of my GF while eating her Shrimp Brochette, this was a winner too ! This experience was worth the 30 minutes walk we took to go there from our Hotel !3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMGood food and service. PassoverGood food and service.

We got the famous guacamole, which was delectable and nice strong margaritas. Our entrees were great, but the whole experience was outstanding due to our waiter Jay. He was the best server I've had in a long time! He let us take our time, made suggestions and even made a special drink for my friend. Jay was the perfect combination of knowledge, attentiveness, and respect. Thanks to Jay for making our evening very enjoyable!3/10/2013 12:00:00 AMNot as large and fancy asNot as large and fancy as their sister restaurant at Lincoln Square, but just as good. The food was delicious and the service attentive. Great drinks, too.12/15/2012 12:00:00 AM
