Pepito is in my top three sandwiches of all time. Amazing!!
Lauren AcostaSeptember 22, 2010Get there early to avoid the lines, but even if you don't it's worth the wait!
best chips and guac in the city, the Ahogada is the king of sandwichesz
Todd LongmireNovember 30, 2011The chips and guac are outstanding. A hint of lime make the chips some of the best I've ever had.
Bacon and Pecan French Toast cooked in a wood burning oven was outstanding.
Chris BroylesJune 7, 2011Digging everything here, but even their simple jicama salad is refreshing Read more
Chefs FeedAugust 22, 2014Rick Gresh, chef of David Burke’s Primehouse, eats here on his nights off. He loves the Ahogada torta. Read more
Abby MeixnerDecember 23, 2012Just good, not great. Food is oversalted. Like that they serve you a marg while you wait in line.
Betty BeNovember 21, 2012hot chocolate tasted like i was eating a melted bar of chocolate, so THICK! and churros were just OK.
Jenny YoonMarch 9, 2013Churro is damn good but the Authentic hot chocolate? Not so much. Too sweet for my taste buds.
David MuradFebruary 23, 2010The hibiscus lemongrass aqua fresca is fantastic. Get here before 11:30 for lunch.
Go after 3pm to get the soup. Carnitas and posole is ridiculous. Brings me back to childhood in Mexico.

The allure of Mexican street food is it’s rustic immediacy—seasonal agua frescas; made-to-order guacamole topped with locally sourced ingredients; tortas from the wood-burning oven; steaming caldos; hot-from-the-fryer churros and homemade hot chocolate.

"On the pricey side for some things, but the quality and atmosphere are well worth it. Their pastas are perfectly cooked, even the ever-so-simple and satisfying spaghetti chitarra al cacio e pepe."
Fernando Covas - 9.2
"You don't need to try ice sandwich which is just having additional ice cream in it. Try other regular donut which so delicious!"
