- The Corcoran GroupJanuary 8, 2015Be sure to come with a big group so you can sample a bunch of dishes. Our favorites: honey ribs, steak fajitas, soft-shell crab tacos, tuna tostaditas, & of course the Don Huevo. Excellent drinks too!
Zeba SiddiqiFebruary 11, 2017Nice weekend drinks & dinner spot! Make a reservation before you go! Open quesadilla really tasty & so were the tacos. Don huevo dessert YES pls! :)
- Syd LeighMay 18, 2015Food here is really good but nothing exceptional. Come here 4 cool atmosphere. Try the quesadilla- open face and very cheesy. Plantains were our favorite. The Don Huevo dessert is really a standout!!
__TR3VJuly 18, 2014Great spot. Super trendy and ultra dark (literally) Ha! The guac, yucca fries, plantains, snapper and chicken entrees wear all very good. Worth a bookmark and return visit. #BodegNegra
Victoria NatenzonDecember 18, 2014Words can't describe how amazing and flavorful the food here is. Especially the corn...I need to come back. Dying to try the dessert.- Angelina ZeppieriFebruary 23, 2015sea bass tacos were very good. the chopped salad was great and the shrimp ceviche.
Brittany IFebruary 4, 2014The pork belly carnitas taco is probably the best taco I've ever had. Also, order the el diablo for an awesome tequila based drink
EatMeDrinkMeNYCApril 19, 2014Some steak tacos, some fish tacos, a pitcher of margarita and you will be smiling in no time!
KarstenOctober 26, 2014Get the guac, short ribs, and corn appetizers. And duh the Don Juevo for dessert
Sleepy BrowneFebruary 29, 2016About to try the Amish Chicken with Shrimp and Grits with Brussels Sprouts and appetizer the Oxtail Empanadas
🔹Maria L🔹August 3, 2014Get the peking duck tacos, chilaquiles, ceviche shrimp, salmon al pastor and cocomel for dessert!
johanna marielMarch 27, 2017Go for the tacos and that corn salad-amazing cocktails are the cherry on top.
Sofia Nuñez-MoralesDecember 6, 2018Very expensive but great vibes and music. Perfect for cocktails and snacks
Nicky K.August 19, 2014So good I went back a week later. Some things are hit or miss but the tacos are must.
Thysa ZevenbergenJuly 17, 2015Great food, a bit too dark for my liking. I prefer to see the food I put in my mouth.
- EatMeDrinkMeNYCApril 19, 201420 speakers pumping past top 40s (They could have gotten away with 8 speakers for the size of the space).
Barton SmithAugust 9, 2016Overpriced but if that's not a problem then it's a good option. Pork belly was the best.
Isa SierraOctober 29, 2017The food isn’t specially fresh or good. In comparison with other Mexican places, food isn’t great. And the music is way too loud. Impossible to have a conversation.

"Great music, people and ambiance. One of the best rooftop locations in NYC but a little bit pricey. Worths the money though."

"Excellent service. Beautiful ambiance for a private party. Enjoyed the DJ"
Nabeela Akhtar - 6.9
"It’s chic, it’s beautiful, and for $60 on weekdays, you could be swimming in it. The heated, glass-bottomed pool is only the beginning: There are also cabanas, cocktails and real sand."

"A really cool indoor market we found by accident after looking for food. There's pretty much everything you need and more in this place and a nice break from the rain/Sun depending on the season"
