Mike McBryanNovember 20, 2014The mussels tostada, cobia al pastor and white bean salad were all hits. Chilaquiles was a miss. GET THE HUSK MERINGUE!
Andres MillanJuly 11, 2018Amazing. A must in NY. Try the Duck CArnitas and the fish al Pastor. Really really good.
Lisa ParavanoDecember 17, 2016Impeccable space & design, amazing service & very innovative food.. but outrageously priced. Def best enjoyed on an expense account 👌🏽
Adam BardNovember 15, 2014Flavors are very mild across the board, especially noticeable when citrus was used as it overpowered. Perhaps my palette is not refined enough to love the delicacy, preferring robust, simpler food.
Mark HaysJanuary 15, 2015The husk merengue is one of the best things I've ever eaten. Uni tostadas and ny strip tacos also great.
Jorge UrrutiaSeptember 8, 2015Duck Carnitas is the name of the game. Super tender, melt-in-your-mouth duck to make tacos with!- laurenMarch 4, 2015Skip the bland guac and go straight to the burrata & duck carnitas. Husk merengue is weird but so good if you like corn. Waiter will tell you it's a light meal but you'll leave so full. Solid Paloma.
Mischa LumiereFebruary 20, 2015Super trendy spot. Food was delicious. Definitely worth the wait. Wish I could try everything on the menu.
Kitt HodJuly 16, 2018Mindblowingly amazing, have the flat iron steak with the mole rojo for the best meal in NYC!
Nidhi KaySeptember 5, 2021Wow recommend blue shrimp, pork mole, soft shell gordita, corn meringue, amazing atmosphere excellent food
Brenda CiukSeptember 29, 2016Duck carnitas and meringue are a must. Great place for authentic Mexican food with a small twist.
E PJanuary 11, 2015The food is definitely overpriced for the portion size. Didn't leave feeling full. The Ninja cocktail was a favorite as were the cobia and scallops. Everyone recommended the corn meringue but ew.
Anna Mulock HouwerJanuary 26, 2018Incredible food. Not sure why this restaurant doesn’t have a Michelin star or two.
MasApril 9, 2016Get - the - DUCK! Absolutely delicious! Next time I am just getting two of those for the table!
Rachel RFebruary 19, 2017Tlayuda is a delicious plate perfect for sharing. Husk meringue and corn mousse is a must try!
Upscale, very busy. They do walk-ins, but to be sure get a reservation. Great food!
Anthony GreenJuly 29, 2016The duck enmolados are excellent and the short ribs were insanely good. The gose michelada is genius.
Honghui YuNovember 29, 2016By far, the best Mexican restaurant in the city, though you'll certainly pay for it.
Colin LeeSeptember 1, 2018Get the duck carnitas during lunch - it’s half the price! Not crowded during lunch as well
- EdAugust 8, 2017The duck is fantastic it is the ultimate comfort dish beautifully cooked and Well prepare
- Prad NelluruJuly 3, 2017The corn husk merengue is interesting, but not crave-worthy. I'd get the churros and chocolate if I were you.
Michelle GabeJune 25, 2015As a vegetarian the main dishes were meh but the husk and corn meringue dessert was AMAZE!!!
MSCApril 16, 2015Delicious! Burrata & Salsa Verde app and Anti Histamine cocktail were definite standouts.
John CoatesMarch 27, 2017Maybe my expectations were too high... but the service was somewhat lacking and the food was good but not mind blowing. And their draft lines were down (the most expensive beer in the city anyway).
AmateurConciergeSeptember 13, 2015Great brunch offerings. Add an order of their fantastic fresh tortilla chips to your chicken chilaquiles
Ann Marie SkjoldAugust 23, 2017If you want to impress someone, bring them here. Everything is divine.
AditiDecember 5, 2017For $200 per head u can get a lot better in NYC. Over hyped restaurant that doesn’t deliver on flavor or service
Saymar CamposNovember 18, 2019Our sparkling water bottle had a broken metal piece with mold inside asked the waitress she said don’t worry is nothing wrong, the faucet broke and felt inside the bottle No apologies offered WTF!
Kristen PeiranoJuly 12, 2015The scallop was delicious buy my guacamole and chips came out after all my other food
Ashley ChanJuly 23, 2017Large portions and creative Mexican fare. Sleek and buzzy interiors. Get the Octopus for sure! The duck carnitas are huge so be sure to share amongst 3/4. The uni tostadas were not memorable.
