Great food! The place is pretty cool, with plenty of space. Their prices are acceptable, specially when considering the amount of food they serve! I tried the shrimp nachos and they were amazing, I’d totally recommend those! The staff was really friendly and the food was served pretty fast.

Hell’s Kitchen (neighborhood) is full of casual restaurants like this. The food here is always good, ingredients are fresh and the margaritas are strong. The chips and salsa are free. Waiters are handsome. Lighting for food photos are good. Honestly, I have no complaints.

This place was excellent- delicious food and drinks, great ambiance, and good service. We started off with jalapeño margaritas while we waited which was powerful and the right amount of spice. The guacamole was good but could have used a bit more seasoning and spice. However the ingredients were fresh and tasty. I really enjoyed the chips- not too oily or salty. We opted to do a tequila tasting which was a great decision. The three selections were very good and smooth, would have been better if it was chilled but good nonetheless. The chicken burrito was very good- chicken pieces were tender and seasoned well. The tortilla was very soft, and the rice was cooked well. I like spice and their house hot sauce was amazing – completely tied the chicken and rice. Would definitely go back for the drinks and food!

The first time I came here over three years ago, I loved it. The food was great and the frozen margaritas were even better. Today was the first time I came back (partially because I ironically could not remember the name of the place) and the food was still delicious.

Delish food! We had margaritas (quite strong and sour), octopus, fajitas steak and mahi tacos. All good quality delish! Guacamole with grilled pineapple is dressing. Too bad they don’t have home made dessert

A very dark Mexican restaurant. This is one of those restaurants that are so dark that you have to turn on the flashlight on your cellphone to see the food. I ordered a Mezcal cocktail as that is the new trend here in nyc. This one had raspberries and mezcal. I admit that i am not a mezcal fan. It just tastes burnt. Not a good combination. I chose mixed seafood ceviche as my appetizer. Overly sweet but overall fine. The chicken mole enchiladas were fine. A very sweet mole with hints of chocolate.

The food was good, but I didn’t eat anything that was absolutely incredible. The chips were really good and the pineapple guacamole was delicious! But nothing to tell your friends about. I’d eat here again, but it wouldn’t be my first choice.

Dishes were made to perfection. Presentation was beautiful and the taste is balanced very well. They even have great vegan options.

This is one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in NYC and have been here 4-5 times. The food is always tasty and filling. I really come here for the margaritas, they have a good selection of flavors – both frozen and on the rocks. Ever since they’ve combined menus and started serving Hell’s Kitchen’s food out of Rita’s (next door), I feel that the chefs are shy with using spices and the bartenders shy with adding tequila to the margaritas. Overall excellent food, their music playlist slaps, and vibes were immaculate.

My husband visited it last summer during a work trip just because of the name (had no idea what to expect). He loved it and raved how we would have to try it if we ever visited. He loved NY so much that we planned a trip over spring break vacation. Hell’s Kitchen did not disappoint. We started with salmon ceviche. The portion was generous and full of flavor. I had read reviews about the brussel sprout taco being amazing, so I had to give it a try. Blew my mind it was so good. Hubby ordered the enchiladas and couldn’t get over how good the sauce was. It really was above and beyond. Our teenage son said the short rib taco was the best he had ever had. If we are ever in NYC again, we will definitely be back.
