The place is nicely decorated, employees are very attentive and pleasant, our orders however were mixed up, the music was OK, we went on Friday night, I guess Friday is for a younger crowd.
Food was great! Our waitress was very attentive and recommended some great dishes. Would definitely eat here before a show again.
I came for the amazing hot jazz of bandleader-Grammy winner Vince Giordano and the Nighthawks, who perform at Iguana each Monday and Tuesday. But the Mexican food is delicious, reasonably priced, and served by a friendly, attentive staff - so the restaurant is a winner all around.
The food was delicious and the service was great! I would definitely go back! BUT-it was REALLY loud. So if youre looking for a place to have a good conversation, this isn't it.
Its a bday tradition to dine here always fun one day i will do the dancing down stairs
My husband and I have been to Iguana many times and we were really disappointed this time! The food was overpriced and not good! Tortilla chips were stale and the cocktails were not good either. The waitress had no personality. Very disappointing!!!
We had a great time, the staff was friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was energetic, full of smiling faces.
The food was fantastic.
Great service and fun menu
Had a great dinner. Two adults with two teens. Very good food and service. Very noisy so perfect with loud kids but not good for older people with hearing difficulties.
Awesome time ..also waiter where really nice made my girlfriend birthday one time experience...food was amazing salmon was at it peak of deliciousness I had a fun time white sangria was also really good
We went to hear Vince Giordano and the Nighthawks. We would eat sawdust if we had to, but thank you, Iguana, for having reliably good food! Service is also excellent.
I’ve been here before whilst on vacation and it did not disappoint this time. Great food and service, could not fault it!
Great acoustics for the band, friendly atmosphere, really enjoyable!
We go to Mondays and Tuesdays to hear the Nighthawks playing upstairs. The music is always a source of joy and we always leave with a smile on our faces. The best way is to go early, one hour before the music starts, so you can relax, drink, and order your dinner before it is too lively!
This is the second time I've come to Iguana, primarily to see Vince Giordano and his Nighthawks, but I always look forward to the food, which is excellent. The band is one of the best in the country and is to be missed.
Had a great time food was excellent
Pre show dinner so location was great. Very busy place with lots of foot traffic. We had reservations so seated quickly. Wait staff was attentive but seemed in a rush to get us done. Perhaps because we were at a table for 5-6? The margaritas were good but food was ordinary
Wait staff was so friendly and accommodating. We were late due to traffic, still seated right away. Mariachi band was a nice touch.
Coworkers had a great time
They enjoyed their meal then went downstairs to the dance floor
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
Went before a show and let them know, service was friendly and fast!
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.
