LEGEN-wait for it-DARY! Brunch deal is the best. Amazing food, frozen margarita and coffee for $10? I make the trek every Sunday since it's the best deal in town!
Food NetworkMarch 15, 2013Add extra spice to Happy Hour (daily before 7pm) with the kitchen’s homemade salsas and condiments – the spicy ketchup is killer with papas. Via CityEats.com Read more
Elizabeth ParasmoAugust 25, 2013Happy Hour Tequila is Herradura! Get a splash of habanero syrup with the spicy salt rim for a super tasty beverage. Salad is big and tasty and the cod tacos were great, too. Burger fills u up!
The brunch special here is amazingly cheap. $10 for most dishes which comes with a coffee or a drink (mimosa or frozen margaritas). Get the huevos diablos!
Ms HeleneFebruary 21, 2016Bland Guac but for $6 can't complain. Jazz it up with the spicy salsa on request. Good grilled veggie tacos, 3 for $12 and side of maduros $5. Noisy when busy.
- Get the frozen margaritas! They come in a bunch of different flavors and the two that I've tried were both delish. Their steak fajitas are also a must-try.
Adam MJune 23, 2013Huevos Diablos is one of the best brunch dishes I have had in the east village. Free frozen margarita doesn't hurt either.
Jenny FanJuly 25, 2017Great value for brunch - reasonable prices that include coffee and a margarita
Travis RamseyFebruary 1, 2015Diablo is so good. Corn bread jalapeño egg and carnitas. $10 for brunch with great bloody marry with bacon.
- BrandonMay 2, 2015House hot sauce is actually spicy and SO legit. Brunch Huevos Diablo with the pork and corn muffin is crazy good. Really love the hot sauce.
Hands down the BEST brunch in EV for only $10! Order either the Huevos Diablos, Chicken Chilaquiles or the Steak & Egg Enchiladas. You will be back for more... I know it.- Anoop RanganathAugust 7, 2014The black bean tostada salad is fresh and delicious. Crisp corn tortillas atop guacamole, black beans, sour cream, lettuce, tomatoes, red onion and grilled corn.
Julius TarngJune 7, 2015Brunch special w frozen marg, mimosa, hibiscus Bellini, or well drink. Huevos diablos or rancheros
My go to spot for thr usual: chips and guac, the bloody mary, and chicken chilaquiles. Your belly will thank you. And yes, that's bacon in your drink.
Cliff WilsonJanuary 14, 2016Steak fajitas were delicious. Good guacamole. Diablo shrimp was tasty. Hot bee-yatch margarita was spicy and delicious.- Nate BeattyMarch 26, 2016Chicken fajita is bigger than the steak, delicious, and a better deal. Great atmosphere, chill local spot
Jason FeldmanJune 19, 2013Food is really fresh and delicious. One of the best house salsas I've ever had. And the burrito is a great dish to get.
Kelsey✨January 19, 2016Cheap & delicious Mexican-style brunch — try the Huevos Diablos with your complimentary brunch cocktail of choice
Tara DîanaFebruary 3, 2015The brunch is affordable and delicious! You can't go wrong. My date waxed poetically about the coffee.
Valentin Leon-BonnetMay 2, 2013The margaritas looks really good, guacamole is a must have. The duck special was really tasty, but don't expect a gigantic portion for it.
Desi VelazquezApril 27, 2014Good Brunch! Great prices! Huevos Benedictos are delicious! And the French toast are a must try!
Robert FreebornMarch 23, 2015Coca cola carnitas and al pastor tacos were good...short rib a little bland and the chips n salsa were great!
Michael WilhelmFebruary 26, 2012I really like the brunch menu. Nice variety of egg dishes. Try the breakfast burrito with a side of chorozio. Reasonable price.
Christina YooMarch 6, 2012went with a party of 6 & we waited about 30 min after our apps to get our entrees! be aware if you're in a hurry.. hibiscus tequila shot was spicy and delicious!
For The MakersSeptember 25, 2011They had us at $5 margaritas but their burritos are also kinda the jam. Pork and veggie are both great!
Ron ZitverAugust 30, 2014Our favorites: frozen Margueritas, tamarind chicken wings, and ribeye steak. Yum!
AmandaOctober 14, 2013Frozen margarita especially during happy hour is good and a deal. The shrimp fajita is very good but they only give 4 shrimp
Lorrin LynnApril 20, 2013Best fajitas I have ever had! But make sure you get a table by the door because the restaurant gets very stuffy.
Calvin MultanenApril 19, 2016Great brunch spot. $10 for an entree and complimentary Bloody Mary or margarita!
You're going for brunch. You're getting the chilaquiles and the coconut frozen margarita. You're only spending $10. You're welcome.
Nicolette RomeroMay 6, 2015Try the vampirita! The shrimp and steak fajitas were both legit. Quiere mas?
SaraAugust 2, 2013The carnitas will burn your taste buds from spice but cool it down with the amazing sangria!
$10 for a margarita, coffee AND the most amazing breakfast burrito in town? Marry me El Camion!
Halstead PropertyJuly 12, 2011Be sure to check out the blackboard out front on weekdays for great days – we got $2 sangrias! The wait staff and atmosphere is also amazing!
Used to be the best marg in the city. Guac is good.
My fave Mexican in the East Village. Very fresh ingredients, great drinks, everything on the menu is good.
CarolineJune 15, 2015Great, cheap brunch! Not annoyingly overpriced like most other Mexican places in the area.
Jenni RussellMay 23, 2012So many margarita flavors available! The food is fresh and delicious and the service is amazing!
Rommy SandhuJanuary 31, 2012At El Camion, you become a friend for life! Best hospitality ever. David should teach a class at EVERY restaurant around!!
El Camion CantinaFebruary 24, 2011el camion cantina h-h from 12-7 pm and the best brunch in town, free drink with it and $5 drinks special, monday frozen margaritas are $5 all day...
Morgan PolotanMarch 21, 2015Small and gets noisy. The pig ass al pastor tacos and guacamole is my favorite.- The brunch deal might be one of the best values in the city
Stephen MusgraveMarch 2, 2013Vegetarians: get the Huevos Florentino without the salmon-- the veg patty is great!
Ashley RoseFebruary 21, 2015$5 cocktails on Saturdays and Sunday's during the day. Fajitas were yummy. But the service left something to be desired.
