We went to gitano over the weekend to celebrate my friend’s birthday and had such a great time. The staff was super friendly and attentive, our server Nate guided us through the menu and was very kind and knowledgeable. The vibes of the restaurant were worth the trip. Great views of the city and the music was so much fun. We stayed for over 3 hours and after dinner we moved to the dance floor and danced until the end of the night.
Highly recommended if you want to scape the city and forget you are in New York while you are here.

The music is torture. Extremely loud but bad quality. Are the speakers broken? Not sure but my ear drums are. Food is mid. Drinks ok. Vibe would be great except for the BAD QUALITY SOUND. Bring ear plugs and good luck to ya ?

Forgot to mention! Save some tortillas from your main course in case you order the cake + bubbly dessert for your celebration. You can then use the tortilla as a plate since they won’t bring any!

Nice atmosphere but food was mid, expensive for the portions, we had to order everything ourselves from our phones, waitress never checked in on us, at the end she still expected the tip even though she did absolutely nothing.

I can’t even explain how upset I am with this restaurant. I had reserved a 8pm dining reservation here for my fiancé 40th birthday while staying at governors island for the night and they cancelled at 2pm. I made all these plans and cancelled a different place to eat to here because of their “high” reviews and now I have no place to eat. The other restaurant is booked and I am on a waitlist. This is extremely insensitive and unprofessional. I wouldn’t recommend this place not because of the food but because it is unreliable. Two weeks I booked the reservation and they cancel same day hours before. Horrible.

Went to Gitano today and had such a great time. Came with a group of friends to celebrate my friends birthday and we had the best time.

The lobster tostada was incredible and so was the Birria and the shrimp tacos. Highly recommend the jungle fever and the kisses in the car.
The vibes were great and Nate was such a good server. Highly recommended

My experience at Gitano was amazing! Nate was the best server and was so attentive to our every need. The food was amazing, you have to try the shrimp tacos and the lobster tostada. The DJ was amazing and the dance floor was packed all night

Food is very overpriced and doesn’t taste good. Almost everything is spicy, probably to cover the lack of flavor and you can’t modify the dishes or ask them to make it not spicy.
I got Al Pastor tacos and it was a bowl of very questionable meat for $32 and my friend got ceviche which had a hair in it.
Service was good, no complaints about the staff, everyone was very friendly and helpful.
Overall not worth it.

If I’m being completely honest , the food doesn’t give Mexican food justice . The tacos were bland , which I’m very surprised like how can you mess that up so badly . The chocolate dessert was terrible . It seems to me no love was put into the food . The only thing good about this place was the music and the drinks ?. The service was not to par . I asked one of the waitress for a spoon she legit told me to ask the waitress that was serving us . She went back on her phone and just stood there doing nothing . I won’t be coming back here . Overly priced place with poor quality of food and service .
