Chelsea RenaudAugust 30, 2015For a relatively cheap place with ample space and good drinks, I’m not complaining. For the Seaport, it’s definitely a good option. Put this restaurant anywhere else though, and we’d keep on walking.
Julia KaplanAugust 4, 2017My favorite neighborhood spot! Great place to catch up with friends over frozen margaritas and the food is simple but pretty good, with big portions.
Christian LopezOctober 31, 2018On Taco Tuesdays you can score 2 tacos + a frozen marg for only $10.... Find me better value than that in NYC and I'll let you name my first born. No frills, good value and good times.- Nicole ReganMarch 31, 2017Fun and relaxed. Never too crowded. Great place to grab drinks with friends (esp the frozen margaritas). Always has a friendly atmosphere, maybe it's the Christmas lights. Or Canadian flags.
Neelu RaviOctober 1, 2017This place has got inexpensive shots. Their shrimp tacos are well done. I would go back here with a group of friends and have their mystery shots. Inexpensive place in Seaport, NY
David ChitanavaJune 12, 2021I was surprised by the variety of choices. The menu is rich and the service is good. The food was good. However, I had higher expectations about the taste and was a bit disappointed.
Shabna ZaheerSeptember 5, 2018The frozen margarita is amazing according to my friends. GET THE NACHOS - so good. The shrimp tacos were OK, could have more flavour. V slow service though and u should reserve if you can!
Ariel HermanMay 27, 2017Very low-key, no-frills bar with many regulars under the Brooklyn Bridge. Great margarita happy hour. Live music of varying quality.
Victoria DimAugust 13, 2014Sweet potato fries and blackened white fish are delish! Generous portions and great value for the price
Tacos. Just get the tacos!! Shrimp fish chicken and beef. And to drink, the Mecalada, spicy! #TACOS
- CompassJuly 30, 2013Nosh on French toast rolled in Cap’n Crunch for weekend brunch, and fresh seafood and comfort dishes at the casual eatery near South Street Seaport.
ScoutmobNovember 28, 2011The FiDi building that houses Cowgirl Sea-Horse has one hell of a history. Dating back to 1807, it was once a flower market, Radio Mexico, and one of the first on record to be owned by a black man.
Mandar MOctober 17, 2018You can get the sliders with onion rings for two bucks extra - totally worth it
Ahyana GuerraJuly 31, 2019The wings and chicken quesadillas are on point and the frozen margaritas but don’t forget to add a flavor, it’s twice as nice!!
So obsessed w cowgirl seahorse! The black eyed pea salsa is amaze so is the guac and the veggie quesadillas and please have the chicken verde enchiladas!!!! To die for!!!
SS+K's Guide to Downtown NYMarch 21, 2012The cozy little sister of Cowgirl in the village, this spot under the Brooklyn Bridge has delicious fish tacos and $4 margs at Happy Hour! Also $2 Taco Tuesdays.- Kosha ShahDecember 19, 2014Loveeeee! Cute place, especially if you are a local! Great happy hour...$2 taco Tuesday and trivia on Wednesday nights!
- Jake PohNovember 21, 2015Fish tacos! Frozen Margs! Exclamation points!!! Brian the Hawaiian is the best!
Shrimp & Grits are phenomenal - strawberry margarita is made with fresh strawberries! This entire menu is delicious, a real neighborhood gem
Chris MartinSeptember 18, 2014Good food, great beer, awesome atmosphere. Make sure to see the Pens play. They were great!
Josh FerryMarch 27, 2017A fun themed restaurant that's a bit off the beaten path. Decent food and fun atmosphere.
Nat EliasonAugust 29, 2014The chopped salad with chicken and bacon is killer. Definitely add some hot sauce to kick it up a notch.- Eric AdlerNovember 20, 2013Come on $2 Taco Tuesday!! SUCH A GOOD DEAL!!! Also, Sit in the back for a much more cozy setting. loves
The "all chopped up" salad with chicken is amazing. Also the whiskey pork chops and fish tacos, black eye peas salsa, ...really everything!!! Come here!! Service is amazing!!!
The Corcoran GroupJuly 30, 2011Try the refreshing $5 margaritas during happy hour – with their chips and salsa. The music is a little loud for conversation, so probably not a good first date restaurant.
Just like their location on Hudson street. Great margaritas and pulled pork sandwich
- Excellent Taco Tuesday, but not enough beer or margarita specials to go along with it.
TenantKing.comAugust 6, 2014The chicken quesadilla will please young and old. The Cowgirl Seahorse is a fail proof place to come with your family or friends.
MartinAugust 4, 2015The margaritas are delicious!! $5 on Tuesday until 7 or $11 any other day. Worth it!
Wen FuJune 10, 2014Bright interior, ocean-themed decor, inexpensive comfort food, massive portion, all in FiDi.
SMSeptember 5, 2014the meal was timed impeccably, food was great, would eat / drink / hangout here again!
Simon GreenAugust 26, 2012Chopped salad was delicious. Blackened fish tacos on point. They have ginger beer. Good spot.
Nikki 🌺April 18, 2013$2 oysters and half priced bottle of wines on Wednesday! Order the oysters Rockefeller yummm
Joe RennisonJune 4, 2014Went for lunch. Nice enough place but be warned the $9 fish tacos would struggle to fill a cat and taste predominantly of tortilla. I was told its a bigger portion at dinner. Corn dog was good though.
DAMstyleApril 7, 2013The sweet potato fries are too die for. The baby back ribs are so yummy. The vibe is chill.
Wednesdays- Half off every bottle of wine aka $15!!! Cheap margaritas during happy hour, yum crab cake brunches
Try the Baja Especial - Pulled Pork, Grits, & Scrambled Eggs, wrap it in the tortilla, and it's the best breakfast burrito ever!
Kmart FashionDecember 2, 2011Kitschy and comfortable. This places packs a lot of flavor and food. Our tip: Every Tuesdays they offer $2 Tacos...and they are good.

"A “must visit”! Great view of Manhattan. It’s a very popular place for wedding proposals too, so you may be lucky to catch one - I did! Note: The pedestrian way from Brooklyn is a bit hard to find."
