My family and I decided to dine at the Northend Food Hall last Friday, following a friend's recommendation. Despite the crowd, mainly families with young children, and the noise, we eventually secured a table for four. Our orders included birria tacos and Mexican Elote from La Chula Taqueria, a burger with fries from Harlem Public, and a Dominican pizza from the renowned Wahizza. The food surpassed our expectations; my son particularly enjoyed the birria tacos and Mexican Elote. Personally, I found nostalgia in the Dominican Pizza, reminiscent of my childhood in the Dominican Republic. Additionally, my wife indulged in a frozen margarita from the bar, thoroughly relishing it. Overall, our dining experience exceeded expectations, and we're eager to return and explore more culinary delights.

First time visit, had the burger with sweet potato fries, the burger was delicious! Sat at the bar and had a mexician coffee martini and all I can say is "can I have another"Would definitely go back but later in the afternoon when there are not so many families there.

This is a great addition to the area, hopefully this last as multiple business hasn't here. I learned you can book private events here and there are also pop ups that happen once a month. With three food spots a coffee spot and a bar, you'll be able to enjoy a good stay. Harlem Public- loaded grilled cheese & daddy Mac burger were great. La Chula- the birria tacos were great, pollo tacos were pretty dry. The bar had loads of drinks and non alcoholic drinks, I tried the golden fashioned. Dressed in gold glitter this was a fun way to "make" an old fashion for the ladies.

We had a game night here and it was a blast. The quesadillas at La Chula and chicken bites at HP really hit the spot. My wife had a lavender mezcal mule and I had beer on tap. Would recommend.

Visited this place a few times for game night with friends. The interior was nicely set up, easy to navigate, lots of seating, and plenty for large groups. There was a festive, fun atmosphere. It was also not overly crowded, even on a Friday night. The venue had a decent amount of games, like Apples to Apples and Jenga. Vendors included Buuni Coffee (though closes early at 5PM), Northend Bar, Wahizza Pizza, Harlem Public, and La Chula. The first time I came by, I tried from Harlem Public. I ordered the Peanut Butter Burger, which consisted of brown sugar bacon, New York cheddar, and Brooklyn soft roll. This was served with fries. This was really tasty and the peanut butter worked well with the tender, well seasoned meat. The melted cheddar was sharp in flavor, and the bacon was wonderfully crispy, with just the right amount of sweetness. All the ingredients worked well together. The fries were perfectly crunchy, full of yummy potato-y taste, and quite addicting. On my next visit, I went with La Chula tacos. I chose Birria and Fish. I preferred the Birria, which was braised beef in red chiles, melted cheese, onions, cilantro, along with salsa verde. The beef was oh so succulent, juicy, filled with bold flavor. However, I wasn't a fan of the battered fish with cabbage, chipotle crema, pico de gallo, and salsa. While the fish was tender and flaky, it wasn't crispy enough. The fish was also kind of soggy and bland. The cabbage was also uninspired, though the sauce was decent. The last time I went, I was able to get there in time to have some coffee from Buuni. I selected the Ethiopian coffee with condensed milk. The drink was amazingly creamy, strong, and wonderful. For food, I grabbed something from Wahizza Pizza. There were some menu items that sounded good, like the Pizza Cone, but that wasn't available. I would have gone for the Meat Lovers Pizza, but they only offer the whole pie and I didn't have anyone to share it with. In hindsight, I should've went with my first choice and saved the inevitable leftovers. I ended up ordering the Calamari from Wahizza. It was so chewy and bland that I found it to be inedible. When I let the lady who took my order know, she told me she didn't have authorization to refund me. She asked if I wanted to give my information so the manager could get in touch with me to possibly grant the refund. Then, one of the cooks asked if I wanted wings instead. That sounded like a better suggestion, so I inquired if I could choose the replacement. I would've liked the Philly cheesesteak with fries, which actually cost less than the wings. The lady responded that the wings was the only option or to possibly receive a refund. Definitely not good customer service! Should've known not to get something fancy and stick to the basics at this type of place. Finally, I decided to get the wings, which were actually quite yummy. The skin was delightfully crunchy, while the flavorful sauce made it satisfyingly sticky and the meat was nicely tender. I always enjoy my time here, so will be returning. Also, the prices are pretty reasonable. Next time, I would like to try the Chorizo / Carne Asada Bowl or Quesadilla from La Chula, and at some point, the Meat Lovers Pizza from Wahizza, as it looked good.

A fun place to hang out with friends and get food or drinks. Something for everyone. Recommend the Doritos quesadillas, the esquite, and the drink of the day, whatever that may be at the bar.

This place is wonderful! It's like a tiny mall for food and (real) drinks ? ! I tried 3 of the stalls while I was waiting for a client, and I was impressed! Great pizza, great tacos, and great cappuccino! I plan on going again!

Great space for all to enjoy, especially families with younger kids. The food options are great, Harlem public has a kids menu which I hope they can at least one or two options to a healthier add on for the kids. All the food at Wahizza and La Chula are great options as well, Bunni set up shop but haven't tried at this location but love the mix of all these vendors under one roof.Kid-friendliness: Highchairs and kids menu available, along with certain games to ease the wait time on the food overall great family friendly space for all the share with little ones, I believe only one accessible bathroom has a changing table which is better than none.
Such a. Dope spot in the heights. They are the location of wahizza famous chimi pizza l. Both the location and vibes do not disappoint. There is no parking other than street parking. Usually open till 11 am. There's a bar , wahizza pizza, and two other food establishments at the location l. It's definitely a vibe for a younger crowd to hang outVegetarian options: Wahizza has a vegan and Veggie option not sure of the other two business

Zero table service with prices higher than comparable establishments (but those places have full table service). Nothing is connected so get ready to stand in multiple lines. Won't be back.Rather inconvenient setup. Yes they have multiple food counters, so if you are looking for tremendous variety, then for that it’s convenient. Otherwise, not so much.Let’s consider the following comparison:You came here with friends for a three course meal and beverages.Regular table service vs. this placeRegular service-Get seated, casually converse while looking at drink options and appetizers. Order drinks and appetizers. Converse while waiting for drinks. Converse while waiting for appetizers. Order main course, converse while waiting. Order desert, converse.VS.This place-Stand in line to order appetizers, stand in line to order drinks, wait till your drink is ready. Wait for your appetizers. Rejoin friends. Converse while eating, get back in line to order main dish. Get in line to order another beverage. Wait, rejoin friends. Converse while eating, get back in line to order dessert, wait, get in line to order another beverage, rejoin friends.Ultimately, a lot of standing in line instead of doing what you came here for, to spend time with friends.A few other irritants, the space is not laid out well. While trying to read the burger-place menu (standing near the counter), mobile order e-bike riders had to squeeze by to get to the mobile order counter. Several times within a short period I was interrupted by riders asking me to move.I used the only QR code menu at my table to look at what I thought was items available. After spending a considerable amount of time looking over the menu, I had it narrowed down to two items, went to the bar to ask about those and was told I needed to order what I was asking about from the food counter. After going around to all of the food counters looking for the items I picked out, I couldn’t find them. Went back to my table and re-looked at the menu - THAT MENU WAS FOR A CLOSED ESTABLISHMENT - Thank you for leaving the menu on the table so we can waste our time!The only staff tending to the tables couldn’t answer questions because they didn’t speak English ?

Food was good. There were groups there, staff parties. Lots of variety to eat. You order from different windows. One was pizza, one was Mexican. You get drinks from the bar. It’s difficult to find parking but you can go around the block and get some. There’s also a paid parking lot and a municipal lot around the block.Parking: It’s difficult to find parking but you can go around the block and get some.
