“ I gave five stars all around because I was walking for a min until I found a Mexican spot where their prices didn’t scare me away. However, the food here is delicious, the tacos are simple but they get the job done! The space where you dine in is A VIBE. Super cute, super artsy and very demure! The service was chill too. The ladies were kind and very giving! Honestly def my go too spot from now and on! ”
“ The cashier didn’t speak English (or understand my Spanish). I had an American soft Tacos, 10 Chalupa (it was basically a soft taco with cheese and chicken - this was overpriced), and Jarritos (3). Quite price (over 25). ”
“ Very well decorated small place. Can tell a lot of care and love went into it. Nice, diverse quesadilla and Mexican soft drink menu. Perfect for lunch! ”
“ This place is like a little slice of Mexico right here in New York City. The food is fantastic and well worth the price. The atmosphere perfectly complements the decor, creating a very warm and welcoming vibe. I especially love their quesadillas (you can add your choice of meat) - they are absolutely delicious. And don't miss out on their agua fresca, it's a great addition to the meal. If you're in Spanish Harlem, make sure to stop by and treat yourself to some delicious tacos or quesadillas. ”
“ I really like this mexican place, to me it’s authentic! Good price as well: 2 drinks, 2 quesadillas, 1 taco, 4 flautas for 24 and it’s cash only. The place is small with a good vibe! ”
“ For a late night Mexican snack, head over to this place. The lady is very patient and serves food with love. Where else do you find a 3 taco with such great sauces on the side. I had 4 of them and I was full after that. I didn't care much about the cleanliness or hygiene in the sitting area as she does everything alone. My gf ordered enchiladas and they were great too! ”
“ Delicious tacos. Al pastor were my favorite. 10 for 3 tacos Tuesday-Thursday, 4/taco every other day. Will be back to try the quesadilla. Can skip the gordita. ”
“ I live in London and I visited NYC for a few days. A friend suggested going up to East Harlem and that's how I found this absolute gem of a place. The food is absolutely delicious, the owners are kind, real and nice and the setting is a perfect reflection of Mexico. If you want to experience true Mexican food this is a place you cannot miss. Sopes are particularly good! ”
