Loved the food; great staff. 10/10 probably would be good if there were more vegetarian options.

Opentable Diner

Really great restaurant with authentic Mexican dishes and one of the best spicy margs I've had. Look forward to coming back to try the rest of the menu, especially the chilaquiles and birria tacos!

Tasteless non Mexican food. Very disappointing. Soup awful , burritos like dishwater

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING ALL AROUND!!!
Such incredible food and drinks. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. The Pozole was amazing. We sat at the kitchen bar and watching the chefs execute each dish was absolute food porn. RECOMMEND!!!!!

I have been coming to Oso for the past two or so years and it has always been a hit. I usually go for their birria tacos or quesadillas, the cochinita pibil, or their daily tamales. I absolutely (and all the bartenders know) love their Taco Truck margarita. Everyone is so friendly, I had such an enjoyable conversation yesterday with the bartender and the waiter (I forgot their names, I was too lit from the Taco Truck lol). Also, shoutout to Ashley who served me and my friends for our pre-Halloween dinner a few weeks ago - great service.

Yum yum yum! This is my brother’s favorite neighborhood spot and it’s clear to see why. The margaritas slapped as did the guava cocktail. And 2 for 1 happy hour? Yes, please! We ordered the birria quesadillas and the enchiladas and let me tell you they were thicc, juicy and delicious. This place is a must try for any New Yorker.

Fantastic food! Went with a group and we all shared, each taco had a lot of great flavor and was unique. There was also a cool mural, the place has a nice vibe. The churros were also excellent.

I went to Oso with three friends. I was welcomed in by friendly staff. The restaurant was small, but the atmosphere was pleasant. The staff was attentive and provided excellent service.

I started with the hibiscus lemonade. It was different but very good. I enjoyed the guacamole and chips. It wasn't extraordinary, but you will enjoy it. For my entree, I had a birria bowl. It was AMAZING! Wonderful flavors and a good portion. They have similar options for vegetarians. I will definitely go back to Oso.

Vegetarian options: Many of the offerings start as vegetarian friendly. You get to add meat if you choose to.

By far the coolest in the neighborhood: amazing food and great drinks. We love the quesadillas and cocktails. We have also tried their whole fish which is delicious. A real favorite.

Oso offers a creative spin on Mexican classics that I thoroughly enjoyed. The watermelon salad struck a perfect balance of savory, fresh, and slightly sweet flavors. The birria tacos, while not traditional, were still delicious, and the consommé was so good I ended up drinking it by itself. And don't skip desserts – the churros were soooo good and the portion was generous. Highly recommend!
