A complete delight, don’t miss the opportunity to come here.
I had the pleasure of coming with my wife during Restaurant Week, and everything we tried was incredible. If I go again, I would definitely order the Icelandic Arctic Char Everything Bagel Tostada, the duck enmoladas, and the hazelnut flan. The mole is unbelievable, and the flan is so enjoyable. Even the tortillas were amazing, they truly taste like authentic handmade Mexican tortillas.
The place itself is beautifully decorated, perfect for a date night or even a more formal dinner. The staff was extremely nice, Alejandra and Fidel were the best.
I truly loved this place and I’m definitely coming back.

I’ve been here twice, once for a group birthday dinner and another time for an anniversary, and would gladly come back. The food here is phenomenal and perfect for sharing - my favorites are the duck carnitas, guac, and octopus. Do keep in mind that most items lean on the saltier side, but the warm tortillas accompanying every dish helps balance everything out. Service is consistently great and everyone working there seems to be extremely knowledgeable about the restaurant dishes, never hesitating to answer questions or provide recommendations. Overall, an amazing restaurant in Flatiron that’s perfect for all occasions!
5.0
The restaurant combines modern Mexican flavors with a relaxed, stylish atmosphere, and everything felt very well thought out.
We started with the guacamole, which was outstanding — rich, fresh, and with a gentle spicy note that added a nice touch. We finished it almost immediately.
The Montauk fluke was light, refreshing, and perfectly tender. The octopus was incredibly soft, and the sauce brought all the flavors together beautifully. The Pékin duck carnitas were another highlight — flavorful, satisfying, and even better with the warm tortillas.
Although we were already full, we still decided to try the Meringue dessert, and it was absolutely worth it. A lovely finish to the meal.
Overall, the food, service, and atmosphere made the evening really special.
I’d happily return, especially to try their brunch churros next time.
4.0
Good atmosphere and nice service. The octopus was good even though it was a bit too salty. The Peking duck carnitas tacos were interesting but probably not worth it. It does come with a ton of meat!
Corn meringue was interesting.
3.0
Overall had a lovely dining experience, but honestly expected more given the price point. Guacamole with the crudite was surprisingly good, extremely fresh and a great starter. Aguachile, scallops, and mole were ok, nothing to rave about. Duck carnitas was fantastic, the meat was tender and pulled apart beautifully. Corn husk meringue was 10/10, just the right amount of sweetness and great blend of textures!
