JeffFebruary 19, 2014Went downhill fast. Subpar ingredients now, inedible mushroom tacos, expensive watery drinks, disorganized service.
Stefanie DApril 4, 2013Probably the worst Mexican I've had in all of NY. Everything was overpriced and underwhelming. The cocktails are pricey and very weak.
Maria RosatiFebruary 24, 2013Bad food. Small portions and not great flavored. Really overpriced. Waste if time and money!

We think tacos are AWESOME. We opened Empellon with the intention of treating tacos with respect & serving them in an unpretentious way.

"The Brussels sprout taco will change your life. If you’re here for dinner, be sure to finish with the avocado sorbet and some mezcal. Ask for a recommendation!"
Emily Wilson - 7.0
"We stumbled upon this place by accident, when the wait was too long at Barrio Chino. The drink list is awesome - we loved the Hibiscus Margarita. We paired it with the shrimp tacos & the steak tacos."
