Great food, really enjoyed it. Was seated immediately in their outside heated patio which was actually quite warm enough. My only gripe is the very few non-meat options.

I like the ambiance here - it’s a fun and festive atmosphere. Good steak tacos, shrimp tacos, chicken tinga tacos. I also like the churros with chocolate sauce, margaritas, and sangria. Decent prices and good service with plenty of outdoor seating.

$26 for a vegetarian burrito with a few slices of avocado? You’ve gotta be joking

Enjoyed a lovely night out with friends at El Mitote. We shouted up at 6pm on Friday and were seated right away, but the place filled up very quickly after that, so plan accordingly since they don’t take reservations.

I had the tostadas with camarones (shrimp), my friends had tacos and quesadillas. Each of our dishes were about $20 and they accommodated my friend’s gluten allergy.

The servers were great and the noise level was a little much for my ears.

One of my favorite restaurants in the neighborhood. The service is fast and I love the 3 leches cake, the esquites, the tamarindo water and the margaritas. Nothing can replace the welcoming attitude of the staff.

Very friendly staff you get the food within seconds I was done with dinner in under 15 min and the food is decent. The only things are the tables are problematic to fit your legs under there. See pictures attached.

Cloth napkin prices with plastic plate quality food isn’t a good combo. I ordered the carnitas platter and as you’ll see in the pic, it’s definitely NOT carnitas. The waiter told me that the owner told the staff this is how she wants it served, which made no sense at all. If this place was located anywhere else in the five boroughs, it would be out of business in 6 months. Only decent thing: guac.

Food is good, consistent but not terribly imaginative. Good for a quick reliable meal.

It was delicious! Took a bit to get a server to notice us because it’s so busy, but after that food was fast and yummy.
