Me and my boyfriend checked this place out for Valentine’s Day, the food was great we had tacos and chicken wings which were delicious!!! We were literally in a trance eating our food cuz it was so good! The drinks were amazing also! The service was fast u won’t be waiting for your food for more than 10 mins which is great.
They also have a rooftop but it doesn’t open until April and the owner let us know that it does get busy and packed so reservations are usually needed . Definitely go here it feels so warm and welcoming the owner definitely is attentive to your needs and will make sure u enjoy ur time here which I love . Check this place out what are u waiting for?!??!!!

Alma is a whole vibe -- from the rooftop to the last bite!
If you're looking for incredible rooftop views, flavorful food, and strong drinks -- this spot checks every box.
We ordered a few platters and every protein was cooked perfectly. You could really taste the care in the seasoning -- fresh, bold, and totally satisfying. The guac was super creamy with just the right amount of lime and heat, and don't even get me started on the frozen margaritas... they were freaking bomb. Refreshing, well-balanced, and definitely packed a punch
The ambiance is unbeatable -- cozy but lively, with those dreamy skyline views that make your meal feel extra special. And the service? So warm and attentive. The staff made us feel welcome from the second we walked in and checked in throughout the night without hovering.
This place is perfect for date night, catching up with friends, or just treating yourself to some rooftop magic.
I'm already planning my next visit!

We had great food and a good time at Alma, which has been around for so many years. Tbh there are other dishes on the current menu I'd like to try but we only had standards like guacamole, fajitas and enchiladas. However these were all very tasty and well presented and the spice level was just right for us (medium - I'm sure they'd raise or lower it for you if you asked). The service was excellent and of course there was that incomparable view, especially through the wraparound windows on the mirror- backed top (3rd) floor where we were (the 2nd floor space looked fine, too). We dined very comfortably and happily, overlooking the lights of Manhattan at night. P. S. Some reviews seem to confuse Alma with Bar 61 on the ground floor. I've heard it's a good place, but it's not Alma or a restaurant.

We stopped in for a quick drink and snack while we were in the area. Alma has a perfect corner bar feel and what looked to be an excellent menu, based on the food we saw coming out. My only regret here is we had other plans and didn’t stay for dinner. We grabbed chips and salsa and the salsa was not only homemade tasting, it was one of the better salsas I’ve had in recent memory. We’ll plan better next time and will be back soon!

I went on a Saturday night at 8pm and the place was empty. I mean really empty. The food was good but unnecessarily spicy. The food was not as good as I remember, definitely not good enough to go back anytime soon. The view is very nice.

Came on a Friday afternoon. If you want the rooftop view I would recommend reservations. Please note, there are no elevators and it is a steep 3 flights of stairs but worth it. The rooftop was cozy and had great views of the city. Food was yummy, the pork and shrimp tacos were really good and tender. Carlos was our server and he was super sweet.

We had a great birthday dinner here and the view and food did not disappoint! Awesome rooftop spot for sunset drinks and food overlooking the Manhattan skyline. The queso app was the only thing we found wasn’t worth it but otherwise all the food and drink was delicious.

Really nice spot with rooftop views of the city. Mexican plates you'd expect and very tasty indeed. Mezcal and tequila based cocktails were very nice and had a good kick. Check them out after sunset for even better views.

Walk-In with my friend around 11pm cause I saw the fight(ufc317) on the TV. There were like 2 other people sitting down as well pretty empty. We got 2 drinks, 5-10mins later they changed the TV to some random football game, mind you place was practically empty on a Saturday night, NOT ONE person was paying attention to that game. So I started to watch on my phone, when we tried to order another round of drinks the mustache bartender legit only came to my friend and took his order and ignored me completely. 5-10mins pass by, still hasn’t asked me about another drink even though I tried to flag him down to order, was being completely ignored. Eventually I lost interest in spending anymore money here, definitely will not come here again or recommend this place to any one, if this is how their service goes with just 4 people in the bar. Can’t imagine how’d it be when busy.

One of the best Mexican food I had in the USA.
The drinks were amazing and also the location its gorgeous!
Restaurant was really cold and we could not enjoyed the food. The food was basic and super expensive! The landscape was not unique… I do not recommend it .
