“Refreshingly affordable option in East Village. The tacos are stuffed to the brim; you don’t feel like you’re eating so much tortilla.

The tables turn quickly which is our speed. It is tight quarters so plan for a small table setting.

Still, the decor is unique, the salsas are spicy and tasty (don’t be afraid of the peanut), and this is an easy yes for a date or friendly get together.“

“If you want fajitas that actually resemble the ones you’d get in Texas, this is the only place in NYC worth considering. Skirt steak, cooked over an open flame, and served a perfect medium-rare. Accept no impostors.

The queso is very much on par with what you’d get at a Ninfa’s. Pricing is remarkably reasonable across the board. This is quickly becoming my favorite spot in NYC.“

“The food is good and the delivery is great. You can except your food to be delivered quickly. The only thing is that the women who takes your order over the phone doesn’t speak or understand English. My orders are always wrong. Either she forgets to pack my sodas or I’m missing things. Make her repeat your order always!!“

I'd recommend you get food from here if you're in the mood for some Chinese. Their Tex-Mex is also good but I usually just get Chinese.“
