We went to NYC overnight to watch a Broadway show for my birthday weekend. I wanted Latin cuisine and decided to try this restaurant. This small quaint restaurant did not disappoint. My husband had the Pork Ossobucco and I had chicken breast stuffed with shrimp, plantain, asparagus. The presentation of the food was A+. The food was delicious as well as their drinks. The staff was very friendly. We would definitely come back again when we are in NYC.

Teníamos reserva desde hacía semanas y cuando llegamos la mesa no estaba preparada. Nos sentaron a junto a la puerta y cada vez que alguien salía o entraba el frío que se colaba por la puerta era molesto. La camarera que nos atendió muy atenta y simpática. La comida muy buena

What a great start, we were welcomed by Steve who escorted us into a nice and pleasant space, great ambiance. Our waitress, Micaela was sweet and very attentive, the pork chop and skirt steak was perfect, and the guava basil margarita was absolutely delicious! Our server, John from beautiful Ecuador was on point, and the banana bread topped with vanilla ice cream was the topping on a beautiful evening. We'll be back and we're recommending this great place to our friends and family!

One of the best restaurant experiences! Our waitress, Micaela, was super friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome. The food was delicious; my lobster ravioli was wonderful, as were the cocktails, appetizers, and dessert. They have a very pleasant and welcoming atmosphere. The manager was also very kind. I recommend going, and if you go, ask for Micaela as your waitress; you won't regret it. We will definitely return!

Dinner was delicious, service was attentive and friendly. Our server, Micah was great! We started with the Tamal and hanger cured pork tenderloin with the sunny side quail egg. Both were delicious, the hanger cured pork was unique. For our entrees, the duck was perfectly cooked as suggested by the chef. The skirt steak was very tender, nice portion. Cute place, definitely will come back to try other dishes on the menu.

Their cooking showed attention to proper technique. Their servers help efficiently, and their food tastes fresh and delicious. Their staff steps in at just the right moment. All items provide taste satisfaction. I discovered this inviting spot via internet recommendations.

Our dining experience was absolutely delightful. Everyone from the hostess to our server, Ethan, and the manager were extremely welcoming. We felt very well taken care of and the food was delicious. Highly recommend this restaurant, and their thoughtfully curated food, drinks, and amazing staff.
What a beautiful way to start my week with the lovely Mika behind the bar and great conversation with Jeff and Leidy. Truly a blessing to have met this crew The guava basil margarita & la duquesa were phenomenal, my favorite was the guava basil Marg For dinner I had the lobster ravioli*chef's kiss, the portion felt but I enjoyed not being full. I took Mika's recommendation on the banana pudding (she also helped with the drink decision). I'm only here for work but I'll be coming back each day for a night cap... If you want to feel like family, come here

I searched with a colleague for a dinner place and we were more than pleasantly surprised. Fantastic food (gotta try the octupus appetizer, lobster stew appetizer, calamari ink linguini and/or paella), super friendly staff and beautiful atmosphere. A pearl found and will always recommend … including also the cuban coffee.

Buena Vista Restaurant & Bar serves dishes that hit all the right flavor notes. The kitchen matches seemingly opposite tastes. Buena Vista Restaurant & Bar never compromises on quality. The team genuinely made us feel wonderfully at home. Tasty options that don't break the bank; exactly what I wanted.

The restaurant is in a small space, but the atmosphere, service, drinks and food were all top notch. I recommend making a reservation to ensure that you can be seated when you arrive. From appetizers, to entrees and desserts everything was absolutely delicious. We sampled their bread pudding, flan and tres leches and while you can't go wrong with any of them, the flan stands out above the others. Will definitely be returning again.
