IndieWhere at ConsciouslyJune 22, 20161) First things first, order a caipirinha. And if you're not on a budget order it with the dark rum and brown sugar. You won't regret it. Next up 2) skip the fish tacos and get the pork bbq tacos.
LeiaFebruary 24, 2014Love the vibe they have here. Came here for my birthday for a drunk brunch. Unlimited mimosas for $13(2hrs). Quickly served a party of 20! Food was delicious! Will def come back to try dinner!
Jess SOctober 25, 2015My fav Latin tapas menu in nyc. The lulo + aguardiente cocktail will change your life (don't try to pronounce it, just order it). If you only want a snack= baby bucket of empanadas 👌
Emily SoukasMay 9, 2017Sit at the bar and chat w Alejandro. Best spot around for drinks and tapas with a best friend or a date! Order the brussel sprouts, patatas bravado and BBQ pork tacos
Sandra RubinchikDecember 9, 2014The Eggs Benedict served on arepas was a nice touch, and the El Monumento is great. But don't get the mint-flavored mimosa unless you absolutely love the taste of toothpaste.
- Brian TranNovember 11, 2014Everything I had here was delicious. The Tuna Coca was really good. I went with a big group and we tried a bunch of cocktails as well. Tacos and empanadas were awesome!

Hannah HanNovember 19, 2014Had unlimited mimosa w brunch on a Sunday. Mimosas were all good (guava/elderflower, blackberry/mint, orange/vanilla) and the chorizo eggs benedict was decent. Cute chill spot!
Erin LaneAugust 10, 2011LOVE this place -- delicious, super affordable food. On the weekend you get unlimited cava cocktails w/ your brunch for an extra $7(!!). The juices in the cocktails are fresh squeezed and aaaamazing.
NicoleAugust 18, 2015I went with a group that grew from 5 to 12-13, and it was quiet enough that we were able to switch tables. Very accommodating and sweet staff. Go for happy hour.
SparkieSeptember 26, 2012Brunch entrees vary but an extra $9 gives you AYCD mimosas of several flavors. According to Rhea Recommends the Orange+Vanilla Mimosa is Best. This is also one of her top 5 brunch spots in NYC
Haifa BarbariJuly 15, 2013If you're anything like me and love cocktails that are not too sweet, and like like a bit of spice instead try the maracuya+vodka. Passion fruit with jalapeño: LOVE IT!!- AmberMarch 17, 2016The unlimited mimosas with brunch are a big draw - multiple flavors each day mean fun decisions, but what really seals the deal is that the food is actually pretty good.
Dan LamMay 24, 2015Great service! Great tapas! Loved everything that we tried. Definitely get the Pulpo, yuca fries, lamb tacos and for sangrias try the rosado.
Everything is sooo good here. You really can't go wrong. Go during happy hour for $6 mojitos/sangria and $2 empanadas!

Bitches Who BrunchOctober 15, 2015The Bitches Say: C. Cute ambiance and great location, but the food wasn’t particularly impressive and the bottomless deal was confusing and riddled with fine print. Read more
Geoffroy BablonNovember 20, 2012The porrons are a great way to start the meal. And throughout the meal for that matter.
Danielle FJune 2, 2012The bartender Lorainne is absolutely sweet and amazing. She will take care of you and you better tip her for it!
