I can’t speak to the food since we just popped in for a night cap, but the cocktails were excellent. The ambiance was great (very dim lit romantic type of setting). If you’re in the area and looking for some tasty, but unique cocktails, I’d definitely recommend it. The service was solid as well.

We came here with a big group of friend to celebrate a birthday. The place itself is really nice, we sat outside and the atmosphere was so pretty. The food was okay, definitely overpriced. I know NY prices are high but $20 for two little tacos is a little much. You’re definitely paying for the aesthetic. The worse part was the service. We came here on a Monday and it wasn’t busy, but somehow the food took FOREVER, two people in our party never got their food, they watched us eat the whole time because the waitress forgot to ring their food. (At the end they gave us the food we never received in containers to go for free, but when we got to the car one of the orders was completely wrong, it wasn’t even the food we ordered).

They have a great open back area where you can sit if the weather is nice makes you feel as if away from the city a bit. Servers were passing around appetizers for a large group and while I didn’t really like any of the appetizers, others were happy. A number of custom drinks and cocktails, with a very Brooklyn small restaurant feel to the place. Texmex inspired cuisine.

Was pleasently suprised with my dinner experience at Gran Electrica! Came without reservation on a weekday around 7PM and was able to get a lovely outdoors table right away. The guac and chips were great, including free chip refill, but a little spicy. I loved the chicken tacos the best, but the carnitas were also good. The atmosphere was lively and the service was good. Would recommend people making a reservation next time and going for ice cream to see the riverfront after. Would come again!

Overall, great atmosphere and great drinks, however food left something to be desired and at the price, you really are not getting the bang for your buck. If you’re looking for a place with a great backyard in DUMBO to grab an app and some $16 cocktails this is your place!

Cocktails are yummy. Food is hit or miss but this time, the cochinita pibil delivered. Great atmosphere as always and can’t wait for the backyard area to open this summer!

Extremely disappointing for the price. Very average. Why does guacamole and salsa cost $18? Everyone left hungry and disappointed regardless of what they ate – not because the food is necessarily “bad” but it’s so average when you compare it to the prices it doesn’t make sense. They can do better and they should. The location is great and interiors are beautiful. But that doesn’t mean you get a free pass to serve average food. Pictured are the guacamole/salsa and chips, quessadilla, and tacos (all vegetarian)

Small portions but good flavor for the dishes we tried. Fish tacos were a bit spare so I added some of the salad app we had left over. Excellent margaritas as always. I tried the beet margarita for the first time and really enjoyed.

Recently booked this place for a company dinner. Everyone loved it and thought it was well worth the ferry ride. I’ve used them for post-work happy hour, personal parties as well as more intimate meals for brunch and dinner. Going tonight with my hubby. Would recommend it 100% of the time.
