Food was good quality ! Margaritas are delicious & stout!
Service was very good . Would definitely return.
I love dining here. I brought a friend for her birthday and we loved the margarita list, the guacamole and the queso. The servers were very friendly and the live music was delightful!
Really great Mexico food near theatres
Iguana NYC was an amazing experience! The food was excellent! The calamari is so good as a starter. They’re service was amazing. We as a group of 3 had great food and amazing drinks (frozen margaritas had me lit)!!!!! Lol everyone should go.
Excellent place! Such great staff and delicious food!
The food was good and the service was very attentive..
Service was meh, the food was mediocre and our bill was astronomical. There are plenty of options nearby, so I wouldn’t waste my time here again.
Excellent service and delicious food. We showed up early, and they had no trouble accommodating us.
We love the Iguana Club! The food is great, wonderful margaritas and the music of Vince Giordano is spectacular! The whole scene is joyful.
The experience of listening to the nighthawks play makes for a very special evening.
Everything was really good, from the food to the service. Pitcher of margaritas were really good, but the sangria was average. We would definitely go here again.
The food was great, but a little expensive for what you get. The passionfruit margarita was to die for though. The wait staff was not very tentative but the restaurant is gorgeous. The ambiance was amazing.
Have been going to the Iguana for a couple of years and feel that the quality of the food has declined recently. It still a great place for live music (Vince Giordano and the Nighthawks on Monday and Tuesday night) and for Latin dancing on the weekends, but I wish they would up their game in the kitchen again...
Charming Mexican restaurant in the theatre district, unexpected authentic feel, good service and the food was really great. Went for lunch and we were not disappointed. Only downside is that it's a bit expensive for what it is.
Nothing too special or notable about this location. Definitely a local spot for tourists and am sure its prefect for that environment. Food was delicious but it had nothing special to its flavor.
Sooo loud! Very dark and I had to use my phone to see the menu. Hubby ordered a soda and later they have him a refill. Shocked to see $4 twice on the bill. They should tell you! I got a vegetable dish and it was plain—nothing on it. Hubby got an amazing chicken and shrimp dish and the sauce was phenomenal. I used it for my plain veggies. Never could tell who our server was. I ordered a mojito and it was syrupy sweet. Horrible.
We had a great time Friday night celebrating my friend & coworkers birthday. Bernice, our waitress was wonderful and we had a blast from our delicious dinner & drinks to dancing upstairs!! Thank you Iguana!!
Xoxo
Fun atmosphere, band and dance clubs - food was fine but able to get together with a large group was awesome. The service was terrific, really managed a large crowd very well. I was excited for my birthday dinner to be there -we all drove in from NJ to celebrity there. We ended up sitting at our table from 8 - 11:30 pm so we didn't make it to the dance club. We were busy having fun at our table.
Real delicious authentic Tex Mex with deliciously strong margaritas!
The homemade guacamole is a must have-- made fresh table side!!
I try to eat here at every business trip to NYC !!
The poor waiter had to work the outside by himself. He couldn't accommodate everyone adequately. It wasn't his fault. It was just too much. The food came out slowly. It was tasty, but could have been hotter. We had the prix fix meal and never got the dessert could it took too long to get served and we had to get to a show.
Food was delicious, margaritas were tasty and strong, and the service was absolutely teriffic!!!
The food and service is excellent. We ate here on a Monday night and it was delicious. It was quiet and relaxing. Highly recommend.
If you are looking for a more high energy experience, come here on a Friday night. They even have a dance floor.
Iguana had good food, decent service for NYC. Service was a bit slow. What you would expect for Manhattan.
The food was good, nice ambiance. The service is good as far as timing and also respond to your needs promptly but they are not very friendly.
We chose Iguana for an early dinner (5:30) to then go see a show (we were a party of 6). It was a convenient place and Mexican seemed to be a fun starting place.
The ambiance of the restaurant was very nice, and it started out well with good drinks and Fresh guacamole. However it went downhill afterwards.
So much for getting there early, as the wait staff was in the weeds and were not quick to replenish our drinks. Our meals were “lost” and our waiter was not able to answer us when we’d have our food ready. Long story short, many of us finished eating before others even had their meal and it was very frustrating to get any answers.
The head chef finally came out and offered us. 25% off and a round of free drinks that we couldn’t take advantage because we had to leave for the show.
If the food was amazing, I wouldn’t have been so disappointed. However, I had a steak fajita that was average at best and no one else in my party was thrilled with their choices either.
I would not recommend this place to start off a fun occasion. It was a disappointment to all of us.
This was a real treat! Dining with an older adult in a wheelchair can be a challenge- but not at Iguana. The hostess was gracious in getting a door with a ramp opened. The elevator to the restrooms is small, but once again the hostess accommodated us with a smile and pleasant conversation. The food was spectacular- especially the Tres Leche cake.
The service was excellent as was the food.. always go back here when I’m in NYC
My wine was reasonably priced but my friends albarino was pricey. Share al pastor taco appetizer- good but a lil greasy. I enjoyed the salmon with poblano cream sauce and brown rice, while my frinfd had and enjoyed the pork loin. Shared fried ice cream.
Beautiful ambiance and delicious food. Would definitely visit again.
Had an over all poor experience. Hostess would not seat us when we arrived on time and our guests we late. Made us stand in the hall and was generally disinterested. Food was so so and extremely slow service causing us to get indigestion in trying to make our show. Will never return to this food factory.
Cool atmosphere. Table side guacamole and margarita selection fantastic! Food was fresh, tasty and good size portions. Eclectic decor with a good vibe. Enjoyed our dinner.
The food at iguana had zero seasoning and consequently no flavor. I would not recommend going here. Service was also very slow.
The food was great and authentic. I enjoyed the mariachi guys. They were funny, lively and very entertaining. We enjoyed it and would return happily.
Very loud very noisy. Not easy to change Amy food prep.
We love the Iguana Club. It's small, but every patron can enjoy the music from any table. The food is very good. Everything from Tex-Mex to entrees that feature steak, salmon or chicken fixed many different ways.
The service is great and the servers are so pleasant. There are always interesting people to talk to and there is a dance floor for those interested in dancing. We love Vince Giordano and his orchestra on Monday or Tuesday nights. They play wonderful music, and Vince has great commentary on all that is played. Wonderful evening!!!!
Dined here on Sunday night with out of town friends as pre theatre dinner. I chose the restaurant because our friends love Mexican food and for its proximity to The Broadway Theatre. We also chose it because it’s handicapped accessible and one of our friends uses a wheelchair. We were very pleased with our experience. Some of us ordered a la carte and some from prix fixe. All of the food was fresh and delicious, from the chips and salsa to the house salads and black bean soup through to all the main entrees. Only reason why I didn’t give the food a 5 star rating is because 2 of the entrees were served room temp and had to be sent back to be reheated. The issue was resolved quickly with friendly service. Atmosphere was warm and inviting. Overall a truly great dining experience. Looking forward to going back.
This was our second time at Iguana and we're still loving it!! I had the crab meat quesadillas and they were really good! My husband had fillet mignon which was delicious!! tender and juicy. Their guacamole is also very good, but we had to add salt; I guess they don't use any salt to leave it up to the customer's taste.
Later after dinner we went upstairs for a little dancing and we really had fun up there. I highly recommend Iguana!!
Second time at iguana and def not the last! Great music, drinks, and food. Mexican style restaurant at its best and reasonably affordable !
This restaurant is perfect for celebrating birthdays! There are mariachi that sing along with the waiters and they place a wonderfully huge sombrero on the birthday person. I would recommend this place for a larger party of people!
Loved it plan to revisit it next time I'm in the area. Great food, great service, great atmosphere
