   Interesting, delicious food, very much grounded in an eclectic Mexican cuisine. We started with a flavorful, original salad was listed as a " gaspacho" variation. The waiter staff made clear that it was not a cold soup, but rather a salad. In lieu of sampling the varieties of guacamole,bee tried the avocado salad, which was excellent, and had a pureed avocado base nicely complemented with light greens The tacos are very tasty, and on the smaller side, allowing for you to try several, especially if you are sharing. Our favorite dish was a cooked shrimp in a dark garlic sauce, which was very garlicky, but nothing like the typical "gambas al ajillo" that one often gets when doing garlic and shrimp. Dessert was the churros which you dip in chocolate sauce. It was good enough that I, who generally don't care for this dessert, couldn't stop eating it. All washed down with some excellent cocktails, including a Negroni Bourdain, and my favorite, a salt air margarita The place is not cheap, with the bill exceeding $200 for two, but everything was very good quality. I have already made plans to visit Oyamel for lunch

   I understand that it just opened, so maybe that was the reason why the service was so slow. Also, the 1st drink we ordered tasted awful; thankfully they did make us somwthing new at no cost. The servers brought out the meals one a time with a rather long lag in the orders. The meal really lacked flavor

   I didn’t expect to be dining in a sports bar. I’m actually surprised that a restaurateur the likes of José Andrés would open a restaurant with 3 huge screen televisions all showing live sports. We happened to be there during a huge soccer match, so the whole place was cheering and screaming. We couldn’t even have a decent conversation with our friends until the game ended and everyone seemed to leave. There were tons of community tables and s few huge booths, which I thought odd. In all fairness, the food was excellent. The best things on the menu were the chicken tacos and the shrimp aguachile as well as José Andrés’ famous margaritas with the molecular salt foam! Fantastic. Our server, Vivian, was also amazing. It was the atmosphere that was the most disappointing. I guess I would go back to watch the Knicks or Yankees in a playoff game.

   One of the best Mexicans in NYC! Excellent quality of ingredients, and you can taste that all different plates really taste differently, which is unusual in other Mexican restaurants where all food tastes the same.

   So they just opened and the only place that can go Is up. Huge fan of this restaurant group had been going to his restaurants for many years. This is the first bad experience ever. Comparing this to the DC location and this was a huge disappointment. The menu was limited, and the food was either too spicy or just bland. The dessert portion size was embarrassing. The overwhelming taste was the popcorn and not the flan, which was nothing more than a dollop on the plate. The chairs at the table were very uncomfortable. The noise level was huge and it was difficult to even have a conversation.

   Great fun, would be terrific for a large group since the menu is diverse and has many sharing options.

   Wow. The waiter was wack. Had to ask for water, chips, dessert menu, refills soooo many times. It was obvious the tables he was paying attention to. Disappointed with the obvious discrimination. Money is green for all.

    Yet again, another inventive and thoughtful Jose Andres experience leaves little to be desired. Oyamel leans into more traditional Mexican fare but with Chef Andres’ signature touches (don’t miss the ‘gazpacho’ salad). The menu includes fun takes on favorite dishes, like vegetarian aguachile as a complement to the atun saviche and the chicharones quesadilla. Margaritas are an absolute must — the “salt air” replaces your classic rim with a stable saltwater foam with the look and feel of natural ocean spray. Service, even opening weekend, was immaculate and we didn’t feel rushed. Even with cocktails, dinner for two was quite reasonably priced, though Oyamel’s location inside Little Spain means your reservation is practically guaranteed to begin or end with a shopping trip. And as with all other Jose Andres restaurants, Oyamel accepts payment via the InKind app, which rewards customers with 20% cash back to spend at future participating restaurants (so treat yourself to that second/third marg).
