First time coming here and the food had hair in it and when we told them about it asked for another dish it happened again so i would not recommend going here.

The margaritas were great but the food was just ok. Guac was bland and my entree was good but a bit too pricey. Great service and nice ambiance.

La Contenta is really amazing! Great food, fabulous drinks, a small quiet restaurant, and Alejandro makes everyone feel welcome and happy! Everyone - try the Nachos with chorizo. Best in NYC! Can’t wait to try their sister restaurant Vallarta Tropical!

This is one of the friendliest restaurants I have been to in a while. Easygoing and very pleasant service. We were seated near a very large and quite loud birthday gathering in a small dining room so some of our party couldn’t hear conversation at our table. Otherwise food was good and we lingered for a while without being hustled out the door which was nice.
