Happy Hour: $2 tacos $3 beers $4 sangrias $5 margaritas. Need I say more...?
Leila CApril 30, 2016Food was terrible! Eggs were not fresh. I felt ill after. would never recommend this place to anyone who enjoys good Mexican food. Temperature of the refried beans=a one way ticket to food poisoning!
Great food but horrible service, every time I go. My suggestion sit at the bar.
This place has great drinks (mescal) and the coolest bano.
Sasha МальчикJanuary 31, 2016Chilaquiles for brunch is just OK... Not matching my good Mexico memories of the dish.
Frank E. RodriguezFebruary 9, 2018Nice place, good service but the food does not have that unique Mexican flavor
Lamarr SDecember 8, 2012Get the Don Peppino green drank...this is so much better than chipotle #heygrentrification
Jeff ForbesMay 26, 2013When it's crowded, leave your name and go grab a drink somewhere else. They really pack it in!
Ramona ArmitageDecember 3, 2019Nice atmosphere but the food was really disappointing and very one flavour in each dish.
Raju NarisettiMay 27, 2013It is stunning how people seem oblivious that it failed its NY kitchen test, appealed for two months and only managed a B. It must be an awful kitchen to end up with a B. Cheap and tasty, but healthy?
A neighborhood staple. Whenever unsure of what to have for dinner think Chavela's!
Jay BlessedAugust 23, 2016This place just reminds me how much Franklin Ave and Crown Heights have changed. Food was ok.
Guacamole, Plato don, red sangria. That's all I need in this life.
Freda MoonApril 22, 2013Ordered delivery. Asked for chiles rellenos, which they do very well, and got the chile relleno torta, which they do not do remotely well. Too bad, so sad.

"Cocktails (whisky recommended) are great, backyard is excellent. Don't even look at the menu. Just go up and ask the sandwich man what to eat."

"Quite frankly, it's my new favorite spot. Enjoy a eclectic mix of people, drink a great selection of beer and if you want, check out Dutch Boy Burger next door for their lamb burgers. Delicious!"

"One of the best museums in all of NYC. Big, clean, beautifully curated, well designed, the whole thing."
