“Service is okay but not great but food is very good“

“Truly the greatest dining experience you can have in the area. The food is incredible, the atmosphere is so welcoming and inviting, you’ll never want to leave. If you get a chance, Monica is also the best part of the whole experience. She made our night a 10 out of 10 to 11. Might have to come on a weekly basis moving forward.“

“Food was mad dope, got a chorizo burrito that made me see god. You will leave fed and happy. The waitress was very nice and helpful with giving recommendations for dinner and I definitely do not know her but I think her name was Joanna pic related: this was my face after eating the burrito followed by a quinoa bowl“

“great wait staff.. even better food“

“I really loved this place. It has a nice indoor and maybe an even nicer outdoor area. The staff was very kind too. I came here with a mission. 😎 I’m a huge fan of tripa so of course i tried the TRIPA taco and i chose ASADA too with steak. I really loved both, the textures, the flavours, everything was great. I loved the texture of the tripa tha most!!! Oh and the texture of the tortilla… wow, i loved that too. 😋“

“great tasting food also good service and environment“

“Such an incredible experience . Tasting menu was amazing !“

“los mejores tacos al pastor!!!!!👍👍👍👍“

“I had a great experience here! The service was amazing from the moment we walked in. The staff was friendly, attentive. The food was great too, but the outstanding service is what really stood out. I’ll definitely be coming back and would highly recommend this place!“

“So fabulous! Delicious food! Amazing service! If you are any where near Brooklyn, it is a must!!“

“everything was delicious, atmosphere was fantastic, service was great. Highly recommended!“

“There aren’t enough good Mexican restaurant on the east coast so when you find one as good as this one…you want the world to know. I had the best time at Alma Negra, the food was divine, the cocktails were thoughtful, and the service was on point. Will be back and I’ll tell all my friends!“

“Nice cozy neighborhood spot good for drinks and appetizers and food great ambiance“

“I love this place and am sure to take my friends here whenever they visit. The tacos are probably the best in New York. Very authentic Mexican. The staff is always so kind and welcoming. The restaurant is very clean and the colors are beautiful.“

“3.5/4

Went with a friend to try out Comal tonight and hmmm had a quite mid experience.

To start, the staff was kind but service was quite slow. Also when we arrived the iPad was dead so they didn’t have our res up until it was plugged in and booted up which left us standing awkwardly beside some others who were eating and was a little uncomfortable.

I had ordered an NA taller 116 drink and really did enjoy it! I think that some places have NA drinks but they are just syrupy sugar bombs… not the case here as it was a very balanced and enjoyable drink.

To start we had the bluefin aguachile, the sungold tomato salad (recommended by server), and the beef tartare. The beef tartare was incredible!! A must order if you go here… easily the best dish of the night as it was balanced and super tasty with the chapulines. I really enjoyed the bluefin aguachile as well, but my friend had said that the aguachile tasted “cheesy”. The most disappointing dish was the sungold tomato salad. The tomatoes were not sweet and were overall quite bland.

For the larger dishes we got the crunchy lobster, smoked chicken, and the salsa flight.

The salsa flight was great! Each of the 3 were very tasty and mixed well with the chicken. The chicken was easily the second best of the night behind the tartare. The chicken was SUPER tender and the smoking method is something not seen too much in NY at a restaurant. The adobo was incredible as well!! The crunchy lobster was not as good. The lobster was pretty soft and also came completely covered by greens to hide the small amount of lobster given. Overall also quite bland.

We skipped dessert.“

“Stopped by on a lazy Sunday afternoon and ended up enjoying one of the most comforting meals I’ve had in a while. The tortilla soup completely stole the show — rich, flavorful, perfectly thick, and packed with crispy blue corn tortilla pieces in every bite. Honestly wished they had a bigger bowl because it disappeared fast.

Tried the bean & epazote tetelas on the side and they paired so well with the soup. Also shared the black bean avocado tlayudita and chilaquiles — both fresh, satisfying, and full of flavor. The chilaquiles do get a bit pricey once you add the extras, but the taste made it worth it for us.

Came around 2 PM on a Sunday and still found outdoor seating easily, which made the whole experience feel relaxed and unhurried. Great food, warm atmosphere, and one of those places you leave already thinking about coming back to.“

“The food here was very high quality. As there was only one vegetarian option, it was still tasty and amazing to try because of how fresh the ingredients were, the high quality temperature, and the presentation. We got the mushroom tacos and a quesadilla with added pico de gallo, fresh herbs. The quality of the tortilla was fresh, the people were friendly, and the ordering process was smooth through through the kiosk. Since we went in the winter it was freezing but they were nice enough to add a heating fan. The best part about this place and selling point as we all know is the atmosphere. Since the taco spot is a quick eat N go, the keg stands as mini standing tables was very clever and aesthetic. Will come back if I ever am in the area and drunk 🤪“

“Great Maxican restaurant in lower east side. Friendly service, busy. Large portions for us Europeans. Had the spicy prawn sliders which was like a large prawn roll in a spicy tomato soup. Too much bread for me. Then had fish tacos ( both were starter courses). Too much for me but excellent. Nice cocktails too“

“The restaurant is beautiful and the food was delicious!“

“I recently discovered this place, and let me tell you—wow! Literally sooooo yummy! The food is fresh and so flavorful, I literally had to call to let them know how good the food was!😭 The churros—soooo fresh and tasty, as well as the teriyaki burrito. 10/10 for me, no exaggeration!“

“This place rocks. Drinks are interesting and really fabulous. My friend and I shared amazing octopus in this rich, beautiful sauce and a stellar guacamole to start. They also served a really wonderful warm salsa with homemade chips. And then we had an incredible molcajete which I don’t have words for. I’ve live in NYC for 18 years and I never write reviews. Hands down best Mexican I can remember in New York. Undiscovered gem. 6 stars“

“this restaurant's food quality is too good“

“A Great Cocktail Bar

This is the kind of cocktail bar that gets it right. It has creative, well-crafted drinks and an owner who genuinely loves sharing his cocktail knowledge and expertise. More importantly, it feels like a true neighborhood spot: welcoming to regulars, newcomers, and everyone in between. It’s about celebrating and catering to the community, not gentrifying it. Great drinks, great hospitality, and a place where everyone feels welcome.“

“The atmosphere was warm and inviting, perfect for a Friday night out. We tried the classic cheeseburger and truffle fries, both of which were full of flavor. Service was slightly slow due to the crowd, but the servers were attentive and polite.“

“Went to this place after looking for a place with a good happy hour. Tacos are six dollars guacamole was $12 and the quesadilla was $12. All the food was really good and the quesadilla was like a real quesadilla with great cheese on the inside.

Didn’t use the bathroom so I can’t say how that is

But the atmosphere was cool. It was a small little place helped us get out of the rain. I would go back again for happy hour.

And the guacamole was really good and the chips they gave the guacamole were not tortilla chips like big round chip. That was interesting and I liked it.“

“I was starving and near by and a burrito i knew would cure what ails me.

Got the birria burrito, thing was huge, came with consume and was amazing. Felt like it was made with love. Chips and a coke and I don't need to eat got the rest of the day.

10 out of 10, would totally stop by here again. Not even just because I am starving.“

“So let me say this - truly a gem of a place. The people were actually some of the most friendly people ever, walked me through all the sandwiches and explained everything and made it super accessible for me to still enjoy the full experience even though i did takeout, for the price it is an INSANE amount of food and the sandwiches themselves are delicious, i had always passed this place and glad i stopped in because it really is worth it. Such a wonderful place with delicious food cannot recommend enough.“

“I ordered take out from here in NYC. I i'm always on the lookout for a great tamale... And these guys did not disappoint. I ordered two types of tamales, both delicious. I ordered their street corn on the cob, delicious. And I had their rice and beans, which we're also great. The food was fresh, delivered hot, and so so good. Look forward to my next business trip so I can order from them again!!“

“I’ve seen the Instagram post and I’ve saved it but completely forgot about it since everything I save I tend to forget about; until this restaurant was introduced to me by a friend. Since then, I’ve returned 3 times in two weeks. I can’t wait to go back. Special thanks to Antonio, for my unforgettable meals.“

“Food was delicious. Cocktails are excellent and inventive. Will have to come back on a weeknight, because at around 10pm on a Saturday, this was probably the loudest dining room I've ever been in, to the point of painfully blocking out any possibility of conversation. Don't get me wrong: I expected a crowd on a Saturday night, and I'm glad the place is packed!“

“Amazing local Mexican spot. I’ve ordered through Uber Eats before and LOVE their enchiladas but I came in person today and it was a great experience. I ordered a “walking taco” along with my usual enchiladas and OMG, no words to describe how delicious that was. We even walked out with a free drink that was a mix of Jamaica, Tamarindo and bit of their natural green tea. LOVEEEDDD it here, definitely will be returning.“

“The loaded fries are amazing reminds me of my home town California has some of the best Mexican foods and this make me feel so close to home foreal… I think I order these at least twice a week eventually I’m going try something else because I know it’s good well I have tried their churros and those was really good“

“really good food,nice place“

“We had the best time! Truly a 10/10 experience.

A huge thank you to the elNico team for making my son's Baptism celebration a flawless and fun event. Everyone was raving about the food, the drinks, and how beautiful the space is. We hope to be back soon :)“

“Was passing trough the neighborhood and found this gem online! It's a nice sized space not large or very tiny. It did start to fill up as we dined. The server did a great job with recommendations! She even informed us that they extended happy hour which included apps until 4pm that Saturday. Overall food was delicious and I will definitely be back. Loved their style of my favorite dessert tres leches cake!“

“Exelente servicio y la comida muy rica“

“Awesome family run business with excellent customer service! Come here and eat and drink!“

“It’s rare to find a place that has amazing drinks, amazing food, and amazing vibes, but this place has it all. We stumbled in after walking across the Williamsburg Bridge and lucked out. Playlist was jungle, franc moody esq, the guacamole was some of the best I’ve ever had, and the margaritas were fire. 10/10“

“The grilled shrimp taco with fruit salsa was the highlight of my night after the Nets game. Honestly, I am the best thing you will order all week, so a cute guy should go ahead and introduce himself. Let’s see if you have the confidence to say hello.“

“The music is always on point. Come on a sunday if you are into Karoke, it is a vibe.“

“We ordered delivery and got the Al Pastor burrito, the grilled chicken quesadilla, and a side of guacamole. Everything was sooo good! The guacamole was so fresh too. The burrito was hefty and I could only finish half before I got really full. Will definitely order from them again!“

“Ricos los tacos ,,100 %recomendado el lugar para pasar en familia“

“Food was Fresh and Perfectly Seasoned! Lady was Friendly. Will def go back! Only downfall, needs a proper sign so you can find the right cart, but right across from planet fitness by myrtle wycoff train station. Other than that, Love it 😊“

“execelent mexican Food and drink“

“We really enjoyed eating here for brunch. The food is delicious! I got the pastor Mexican torta and would definitely get it again. My husband got the Birria chilaquiles and it was spicier than expected so my toddler couldn’t eat it, but we enjoyed it. Service was friendly and welcoming. They gave crayons and a couple coloring pages to keep my toddler busy.“

“I had a great experience here! The food was fresh, flavorful, and came out quickly. The tacos were packed with meat, seasoned well. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the restaurant had a welcoming atmosphere. The portions were generous for the price, and everything tasted homemade. I’ll definitely be coming back and would recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic, delicious Mexican food.“

“Went for the pancakes and they did not disappoint.
Attentive staff, fast service and good food. The space is kind of small and they were really busy but we went on a Sunday at around 1pm. We did not make a reservation but when we arrived we were told someone was a no show and we were seated immediately.“
