“The Taco Project is a cool restaurant. Loved the vibe and the food was pretty good.Food: So, let's taco 'bout this place! I dove into the Chili Shrimp and Mexican Corn Tacos, while my buddy tackled the Birria Bowl. The shrimp had some killer flavors, especially after I added a squirt of salsa verde for that extra kick. Only gripe? Wish they offered singles so I could mix it up. And those tortillas? Super tasty, but man, double 'em up next time to avoid the messy "blowout" situation. He loved the Birra Bowl. Super filling and satisfying. I also like that they have Margaritas, a nice surprise.Now, onto service: These guys were the real MVPs. Despite the fast-casual setup, they kept tables clean and were all over the dining area like pros.Vibe-wise? Cool as a cucumber. Digging the décor and that sunny corner spot, even on a gloomy day. Great place to chill and chow down.They have one in Stamford, where I have a client, so I will give that location a try as well.Date of Visit: 20 March 2024“
“This restaurant beat every expectation. Honestly, I am not a huge fan of Mexican cuisine Margaritas withstanding.La Casa completely has turned me into a fan.We traveled from Manhattan to dine with friends. It will now make the trip just for La Casa.“
“Love! Love! Love! I come atleast once a week for the last 2 years! it’s a friendly environment and the fooood is everything. Yonkers finest margaritas for sure I highly recommend ask for pavel she’s definitely the best bartender!!!! ???“
“Best Mexican in Mount Kisco and the surrounding area!! Super fresh with quality ingredients and the taste is out of this world. Love their bowls and tacos with shrimp or crispy cauliflower. My kids love their quesadillas and rice and beans. Mexican hot chocolate and desserts are very yummy too. Thanks Juan for bringing your restaurant to the area!“
“I ordered two beef steak quesadillas with the flour taco and those were absolutely fantastic!! Tender bits of steak, and a green chile sauce and a red hot sauce served in small plastic cups to pour all over these heavenly dishes! Enter the Tacos; I want you guys to know that you cannot order just ONE taco, they need to be ordered two at a time. So if you want just ONE taco they won't sell it to you! I ordered two chicken tacos and two steak (carnitas) tacos WITHOUT CILANTRO ! I'm allergic to cilantro. They did a great job of cleaning the stove top before they prepared and heated my food order. Also I told them my wife is allergic to pork, (she's Muslim & it's just easier to tell chefs at these type of establishments that my wife has "allergies" to any pork products. The Tacos were good. Not amazing, but satisfying. I then ordered the chicken fingers which came with a HUGE portion of hot, steamy, French fries! The fries were fried to perfection and the potato flavor was not overpowered by the oil it was fried in. The fries were pretty much perfection. The chicken fingers were square pieces of fried chicken covered in a dark brown bread crumb with some green herbs in the bread crumbs that I could not identify. I didn't like the chicken fingers. They were not what I was expecting. The breading was not tasty and there were short and stubby cuts of flat chicken. I didn't like the looks or the taste. All of this came out to 41$ and some change. I thought overall the food, minus the chicken fingers was fresh- well prepared - and appetizing. The price is a little steep for my pockets. So I probably wouldn't be going here all the time because of pricing alone. Overall the place is very clean and the food appears to be fresh and delicious; but skip the chicken fingers.... Buon Provecho! Buon Appetito!“
“This is our favorite Mexican Restaurant at this moment. The food is delicious, even our toddlers devour the food I love the steak quesadillas!The drinks are also top notch. The beat Frozen Passion Fruit Margarita, hands down!You don't want to miss this place! They will treat you like family!“
“Really an excellent place! I highly recommend you go here! Diego and his family were really welcoming. It's a family run business, and you can tell - the food's great! You can find parking easily on the street. The flavors were excellent, especially the home made sauces. Everything was good! There's seating inside, too.“
“Finally a really delicious taco place in the area. The service was great, the lady at the register was so nice, friendly and helpful. We ordered to take home, had planned on eating inside but there was no heat inside. My wife had Birria Tacos and a Quesabarria, she really enjoyed them both, especially the Tacos. I had the crunchy Taco and Quesadillas, both were very good. The crunchy Taco was so good, this place really knows how to make Tacos. We will be back for sure. Highly recommend trying. Also ordered churros, but didn't try yet.“
“Visiting family in Westchester from Los Angeles - Molcajete definitely passed the bar. The shrimp was big, juicy and fresh, the steak (we got the Molcajete, so it came with everything) was a nice cut and well cooked. Salsas were all super tasty and the guac was legit. Only slight LA pickiness is that it was missing the nopal.“
“Umm I come about once a week now. One of the employees almost knows my order on site. LOL does that mean I go too often? The food is soo good & the service is spectacular. My only issue is deciding which day of the week I'm going to go. Give them a try I promise you'll love them.“
“So good; priced right. I've never eaten in the restaurant itself but I've ordered and the food is always good. The food is delicious. The service is great! Go now get good Mexican food that's for once not overpriced! Have the burrito they rock!“
“Stopped here on a lazy Saturday evening still looking for really good Mexican food. Everything we had was excellent. Tacos, guac, horchata and pambazo which I had never had before. I wish the restaurant was closer to home. Service was good but we were the only ones in the spot. Would definitely return again.“
“After a miscommunication with our reservation time for 15 of us, Eliseo went out of his way to accommodate us as best he could. Dinner was wonderful, everything everyone ordered was delicious. I had the Korean tacos and they were so good. They also make the guac right in front of the table and was delicious, you get to choose if you want spicy or not. Highly recommend this place if you want to indulge in some Mexican food with a Mariachi band that takes requests on a Friday night. Our server Jay was a delight and he was extremely attentive to our every need. The decorations were beautiful! I loved it here and will be coming back soon!“
“Amazing authentic Mexican/ Salvadoran cuisine. Three of us tried: 1) torta milanesa - chicken was tender and the bread was soft, very filling, we brought half home, 2) seafood soup- so much seafood (crab, fish, shrimp, mussels, squid, clam) and huge- very big, good to share among 3 people if you're sampling lots of dishes, 3) birria tacos which were flavorful and fresh (didn't come with consommé), 4) al pastor tacos, touch of sweetness, 5) pork, cheese, beans papusa (very filling, we shared 1, 6) guacamole which was presented in a traditional bowl and wasn't too spicy and 7) a elote tamale but haven't tried it yet bc we were so full so we packed it to-go. Service was good and the place had fun music videos playing. We would gladly come back. Everything was fresh, tasty and affordable.“
“2/7/2024I have never been to a Bubbakoo's location, so my friend and I did not know what to expect. Walking in, the space felt very welcoming, and were greeted by smiles by the staff! I decided to get the Mango Habanero Salad with the hard shell base. It was love at first bite.. the salad had the perfect combination of sweet, salty, and the juices from the meat were very savory. My friend got a quesadilla with chicken; she is sensitive to spice.. and the staff were very understanding and avoided adding any spice. I took a bite of her quesadilla and I loved it!I regret not asking for their names, but the man with the arm tattoos went above and beyond with his customer service! He even gave us a free dessert- and that was also very delicious!As you may note, I have never written a review.. that is how amazed we are by the service this location has given to us. Bubbakoo's has gained two VERY LOYAL customers to their New City location.. and I hope everyone gets to try the very delicious TRULY Mexican Fusion and meet the very friendly staff! THANK YOU!!!!“
“Really amazing food, nice kids menu. Food was amazing. They give really good nachos and salsa. Informal but great service, incredible food and affordable. Tastes like genuine Mexican cuisine. Highly recommended!Kid-friendliness: Went with my son, had a great affordable kids menu with big delicious portions.“
“Amazing trays of 30 tacos and all veggies on the side! Plus we grabbed some Empanadas too! Today was the perfect day for us to try them since we were right at the mall! The owner was too sweet and brought us all kinds of things to try while we were waiting! The Biria was to die for and he brought us this Mexican Pizza absolutely mouthwatering! It is inside the gas station across from the Palisades! Seriously such good authentic Mexican food! He says you can even call and ask what his special is. He tries different things every week! Let's support a small local business! La Fondita Jarocha“
“I went earlier today(01/15/2023), and this has become my most "NEW FAVORITE HISPANIC FOOD PLACE." The service and hospitality are extremely outstanding. The staff is patient and understanding if you're new and friendly enough to suggest some of the locals' favorites. They have some amazing specials. I loved that the staff was open to customization and embraced my creativity nature. Despite me currently visiting from Las Vegas, NV, I was blown away by the burrito I customized. Granted, it isn't my own creation, although a recreation of an already well-known burrito with accommodation due to my lactose intolerance. It still impressed me for a California style burrito to taste so flavorful without any cheese or sour cream. Even the complimentary chips and salsa were beautifully made. I can't forget about the Orchata as well. It is the best damn Orchta's I ever had! This place is definitely a locals hidden gem that wowed me away. You can tell that a lot of care and love definitely goes into each meal that is created in their kitchen, and this is rare to come by nowadays! I plan to come back before I fly out to. See you soon and keep up the marvelous work! ( :“
“We've been coming to this 100% Gluten free restaurant for about a year now. The food is always delicious. The service is fantastic. They provide great service with a smile and relax atmosphere. My son needs to eat Gluten free and he loves coming to eat here. The burrito, enchiladas, and yucca fries are delicious. The chicken and steak fajita is very good. My son loves the chicken tenders and fries, my daughter loves the beef tacos. This is a great GF restaurant. I definitely recommend.“

“It’s a cozy place in the heart of White Plains that serves delicious authentic mexican food but the best is the service by the hostess and owner Graciela, we highly recommend the place . Prices are reasonable. Friendly environment Super clean.“
“Great and diverse menu served in an organized fashion with cheerful staff! Couldn't ask for anything better! Oh wait, they also have a fantastic selection of Mexican sodas. AND they have delicious and homemade Mexican popsicles (Paletas) that came in so many wonderful flavors. Would absolutely recommend this place, located in a convenient spot in downtown Chappaqua with free parking behind the restaurant. Definitely check this place out!“
“Our friends, family and I (group of 12) went there on Sunday evening. It was our second time and it was even better than the last time! Friendly service, and great food! Everything we ordered was yum all the way to the desert. We already promised to ourselves we will be back next month already. Worth a trip! (We drive approx 40 min) Michas gracias ?“
“Ordered a quick snack... Chicken empanadas... Crispy and stuffed... And the poblano molé inside and on the side was savory sweet and delicious.So good. Need more next time!The loaded nachos were definitely loaded....And a very good size.Took less than 20 minutes from order to delivery.Next time will be trying the birria tacos!Thank you!“
“Fun atmosphere & Delicious Authentic Mexican food..Kid-friendliness: Kids are Welcomed & have Yummy deserts for kids..Parking: Beekman, side street non paid parking..Wheelchair accessibility: It’s street level.. Easy in & out..“
“Amazing! Did not expect to visit New York and find some of the best Mexican food I've ever had! Enchiladas are my favorite and every new restaurant I try, I always get it; these are likely the best I've ever had! So much depth and flavor. My husband loved his wild mushroom quesadilla and the sauce with it paired so well. The churros and sauce were perfect! Cannot recommend this place enough!“
“I had lunch yesterday with my daughter and her toddler. Valentino was our amazing server. He could not have been more helpful, kind, or quick (which was very appreciated)! The food is always excellent! I’ve had both lunch and dinner there and have always been very happy. I highly recommend it! ❤️“
“This place just opened up and its so clean and cozy inside. Everyone is so friendly. And the food? Absolutely delicious. It was authentic and very fairly priced. I had the burrito bowl and you get more that what you paid for!! I am certainly coming back for more.“
“Very impressed! Dined here tonight and I was blown away with the quality and flavor of the food.I ordered the Guajillo rub chicken and it was great. The chicken was extremely juicy and flavorful. The presentation was amazing and the flavor hit different. Definitely more intricate and delicious flavors here compared to your standard Mexican restaurant. From the way the food was presented you can tell there is a great chef putting passion into the cooking.The chocolate lava cake was a hit to end out the dinner.Definitely give this place a try, I will be back for sure. The passionfruit mojitos were a hit as well!“
“We stopped in for lunch after not having been in for many years. No reason other than we seldom think of it because there are several other Mexican places closer to us. We really enjoyed it. It's not a large menu, but it's got enough variety. The food and drinks were excellent, and the service was comfortable - attentive without being rushed or overbearing. Atmosphere seems authentic and is also very comfortable. We enjoyed a terrific lunch for a around the same price we would have paid for a sandwich and fries some place else. We left very satisfied and looking forward to our next visit.“
“The BEST Mexican we’ve had so far in Westchester. Very cool vibe and decor - especially the chairs and dishes. The guac was fresh, the enchiladas were uniquely crispy with an addicting green sauce, and the birria was incredibly rich and well spiced. For dessert, we got the flan. So rich and creamy - almost cheesecake like. Our server was also very nice. We will be back!“
“Not familiar with the area so I just picked from the phone map app. Brought us to a busy street, with a lot of eateries and so much Halloween decor. Coco's is a small place, with 3 tables and a window seating area for 3 people. But, so many people going in and out. Luckily, there was a table when we got there. We ordered at the counter and someone brought the food to our table. Pretty big menu so we tried some food which were new to us. Pancita is a red, spicy soup with tripe, served with soft tortillas. Seemed like a soup with a lot of chili-type oil so wasn't for me; I just ate the tripe pieces with rice and beans and I liked that better. Chimichanga was fried, filled with a lot of shredded beef and cheese - a bit salty so needed to eat with the salad and rice and beans it came with. Lengua tacos were ok, no distinct flavor or texture for me. Elote de la esquina was boiled corn (not grilled) with a generous amount of cotija cheese and red pepper but was neither too salty or too spicy, which was good for me. Smart to put in a tall plastic drink container.Street parking - we were lucky to find one nearby though.“
“5 stars for offering super healthy food in the Rivertowns! The menu has expanded and now includes fajita bowls served in lovely earthenware. The atmosphere has become cozy with soft lighting and beautiful flower filled vases on each table. Great value and service. It was busy on a Tuesday evening; this is good news for anyone searching for healthy delicious food in the area.“
“Panchito's is our new go-to Taco and Burrito spot. Francisco, the owner, and his staff go out of their way to be friendly and really take pride in their business which shines through in every interaction. The food is great, and we will keep coming back.Kid-friendliness: Remembers my kids name, and is very kind to our family.“
“My visit to Rio Bravo Tacos after work, accompanied by a coworker, turned out to be a delightful experience. Despite not frequently traveling to Larchmont, the warm and friendly demeanor of the staff at Rio Bravo Tacos made a lasting impression on me. The food was fantastic, offering a genuine taste of the flavors that make such establishments popular.The positive energy of the place, combined with the quality of the meal, created an ambiance that was both welcoming and enjoyable. It's rare to find a spot where everything from the service to the food aligns so well to enhance your dining experience. This visit has certainly placed Rio Bravo Tacos on my list of preferred dining locations.I am already looking forward to returning, ensuring that it will be my top choice for future outings with my coworker. The excellent meal and vibrant energy provided by the staff have made me eager to experience it all over again. Thank you, Rio Bravo Tacos, for such a memorable dining experience.“
“The food is great I can’t even complain! It’s jus the lady server is ver rude and disrespectful to certain “Black” customers and that’s not right! She’s very racist and I will tell her that to her face, I jus wanted to document this review especially for her so when she sees it she can appreciate business from Black people like myself!“
“Finding QUALITY AUTHENTIC mexican food is hard in Rockland. But this place checks all the marks. No random peas or lettuce in dishes that dont have it. Great salsa verde (sometimes it is a bit spicy, so careful folks). Delicious chilaquiles. Great torta. Hand squeezed orance juice. This is a hidden gem. Somewhat easy to park.“
“Basing my review on the taco salad but it's so good that it deserves its own review. It's such a massive salad, with such a great portion and fresh ingredients. The mango vinaigrette is absolutely delicious. I usually get it to go, and while they haven't mastered the art of packing this massive salad up yet, I absolutely suggest it!“
“Great little Hispanic deli, just finished their lunch special w chicken that was priced fair. "Think it was 13 or $14 with a drink". If your a hot sauce guy, ask for their red sauce, they must make it there, but my God it hits a spot“
“Random stop for a quick bite. Foods good. Tacos were solid. It’s been a while since I’ve had tacos this good. Hot food (rice and beans w/ stewed ribs) felt very home cooked. I didn’t speak Spanish but this is the type of place I like going to. When I don’t know a lick of what everyone is saying is usually why I’m there in the first place. Def worth a try, I was lucky there was a lady that spoke English, otherwise it might have been kinda hard. But I would’ve figured it out.“
“There aren’t a ton of Mexican options around our area (that I’ve found anyway) so I was excited to try this one out when we found it. It was pretty good. We tried the chicken enchiladas, tacos (chorizo, shrimp, and beef), fries (of course), and the chips and guac. Everything was pretty good, some parts were a little dry. It’s a very small hole in the wall and the wait time was really long. It took about 45 minutes for our pick up to be ready which I thought was pretty long. Overall, it was okay and I’d go back to try something else.I was a little disappointed to see them still using styrofoam containers and would love to see them switch to something more eco friendly.“
“Just finished dinner here. It was beyond delicious. The service was great. Everyone was friendly and accommodating. The food was fresh and the portions were huge! It was hard to decide on what to order because the whole menu was amazing. We will definitely be coming back!“
“Top notch Mexican food at a great price. Aquas frescas are amazing, authentic, and at least 20 fl. oz. Prices are perfect. Small dining room, but they do not cramp the tables together. Spanish-language talk shows or telenovelas on a 50" screen blare their Central- and South-American equivalents of nonsense TV. It all makes for a perfect combination of a good lunch somewhere.The food is top notch, with the chips/salsa plentiful. Want guac? It's homemade and, if I recall, $8 for a ton of it. Their plates will overwhelm you, again, for a reasonable price. Plus, seasonings are spot on.You have to go there. Tip well. I know I will again after a luncheon there once upon a random time.“
“We love this place! Super authentic Mexican cuisine where you always feel welcome! The people here are so friendly and helpful. Margaritas are so good!! I got the spicy and my husband got the classic.Food was fantastic! We loved the enchiladas mole poblano, the cheese enchilada, bean burrito, and chicken flautas! Not to mention the starter mini cheese quesadilla, and dessert banana chimichanga. Everything was super fresh and absolutely delicious.We will definitely be back!! Muchas Gracias!!Dietary restrictions: Super accommodating“
“Ive started to find the best torta and I've so far I've tried four different Mexican restaurants and by far Cancun makes the best torta and for a great price. They also sell warm and delicious Mexican bread made fresh. The only downside of the places is at night where many men come to drink.“
“There were two other locations. The one in north Yonkers unfortunately closed but the Riverdale site (and this one) are still going strong. Great happy hour, solid plates, and great service. Drinks are well done. Parking can be a problem and there aren’t many tables when the place is popular, but worth it.“
“This place checks all the boxes for an authentic, family run, home-cooked experience. The menu is a mishmash of printed page and handwriting, the staff and clientele are nearly all Spanish speaking, it is spotless for dirt and there is Mexican football on the telly. The food is good. It's not fancy, and that should keep the snobs away, but it has the essential combination of scent, visuals, taste and the inner warmth a cook who loves a dish can make. You can do the El Typico half chicken, tacos which my sons say are rocking, steak platters in all their various combinations, and these wee Jammie cake style pupusa things. A novelty for me, very popular in Latin America apparently, they are enclosed buckwheat pancakes with a choice of fillings. Some of which you've never heard of, so try them. This is grass roots cooking, and I am a fan. In a low sodium World, the tropical propensity for salt is punkette, the spice combinations are unfamiliar but pleasing. Part of the meal I ate was a little dry, but that's what the excellent salsa is for, and everyone at the table is coming back. There is no booze, which is a good thing in working mens establishments playing football, and the while the drinks selection is authentic it is limited. Expect to pay fifteen bucks a head per adult, leaving plenty of opportunity for a jumbo tip. Don't go if you are stuck up.“
“I am so happy I came across this restaurant on UberEats. The food from here is authentic Mexican food. I ordered shrimp tacos with handmade tortillas and it was by far the best I’ve ordered for delivery. (I wish I took photos of the food but I was so hungry I devoured the whole tray.)My husband ordered the steak chimichanga and also mentioned how fresh it tasted despite us ordering at 11pm. I will be ordering more often and trying new things on the menu, Can’t wait.“
“We visited this place on a Saturday, we tried Birria con arroz y Frijoles, and this was one of the best Birria in town ever! We also had Tacos arabes, the meat, seasonings and the salsa roja were beyond delicious. I have to say that costumer service is one of the best we have ever had. We highly recommend you this place, don't go with the fact that is a small establishment. You won't regret it“
“This place is AMAZING! It is unique and authentic - everything is fresh, and their quesadilla (made with corn / masa is very unique but incredible).Their salsas are perfect on everything they make and the tacos are some of the best I've had (chorizo is my favorite thus far but all have been good). Looking forward to going here and ordering from Uber eats again.“
