Hell's Kitchen

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. We ordered the trio guac (sample all three guacs) . Surprisingly, the rojo was my favorite - it was actually the one I wasn't going to consider if we had gone with a single flavor order. The grilled pineapple one was a bit of a let down because it was the traditional guac with a few pieces of grilled pineapple on top. The service wasn't great tonight even though it wasn't very crowded. We got seated immediately without a reservation at 630 on a Monday. The server at first was very timely coming over to ask for our drink order and then app order, but seemed to forget us before we could put in our entree order. The drinks came fairly quickly (that's when we ordered the guac trio), but the it took forever to show up - I finally had to ask a different server to go check on it because we could find our server (shout out to the nice guy who wasn't on server duty that night, but still helped us out). They either forgot to put in our order or something else because after calling over the guy, they delivered an order of the traditional guac and not the trio (wasn't delivered by our server). Once we finally got out food however, I was in food heaven. I ordered the pork burrito and it was awesome. The portion is also huge! They added half an avocado on top, that I don't remember them doing the first time. I had to take half the burrito home because I couldn't finish it all. Drink: frozen mango margarita, passion fruit Marg on the rocks, a beer Apps: trio guac sampler Entrees: pork burrito, pork quesadilla, steak burrito. Despite the service, I will come back here - that rojo guac calls to me.

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. I ordered a classic margarita as well. I was pleasantly shocked to discover how big it was. The chips and salsa here are excellent. The chips thin and long. Perfect for dipping. The salsa is spicey but not too hot. This is my 2nd time here. Im always surprised at how unimpressive the food is.
