Was in a rush when I left the first review but I had to rate it! A hidden gem spot in Times Square. The servers were so attentive and kind, the food was amazing and the serving sizes are big enough to leave you full for the rest of the night. Prices aren't too bad for being next to a big tourist spot either. Highly recommend if you're looking for authentic Mexican food!
El lugar está en muy buen sitio y es agradable pero se demoraron bastante en atender, pedí varias veces agua y nadie traía nada ! La música bastante alta no puedes ni hablar !
the margaritas were great. wanted to kill time before we'd checkout of our hotel, so we went for happy hour. we sat in the front bar window, our server greeted us , took our order, dropped drinks off and food, then vanished. i went to the bar to get another margarita but bartender said she would send it over. 10 minutes later another server came with margaritas and said the other one left.. hmm?? however bussers were very prompt and asked to take dirty dishes away. the only thing is that we when we got the bill our margaritas we ordered were not happy hour priced and we ordered the happy hour maragritas stated on the menu. when i asked the new server he said its the bar or lounge only. ok.. we were in the bar area but ok.. it was our first time there, we didnt know where the lounge was, we only saw the bar. anyway my quesadilla was delicious and maragritas were great.

I was here for Happy Hour this week - just 2 of us. Seating in the bar was unavailable so we were sat just next to it. We arrived at 4:30pm. Happy Hour is through 6pm. After waiting a long time our waitress came and we ordered specifically off the Happy Hour menu. When we ordered we said "may we have the Happy Hour guac....the Happy Hour El Camino" etc and not ONCE did our server tell us we would not be eligible for Happy Hour pricing because of where their staff sat us. Had we known this, we would have gone elsewhere. Our food (guacamole and queso) was brought to the table, without chips....which seemed laughable at the time but then the fact that we had to order chips to accompany that food was ridiculous. How else do you eat those things? And our bill came and we were charged full price. When I have complained to management they told me "That's something your server should have told you" and when I said, "ok but she didn't" they said "I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do".
This just feels so dishonest and shady. There is no "atmosphere" here - it's dirty and dilapidated and this dishonesty just solidifies I will never come back.

The staff was very friendly, and we were actually in the downstairs area, which was completely empty. There was no atmosphere at all, which was a shame.
The upstairs space is quite small and was full, but we couldn’t sit there since we were a group of four. Meanwhile, the downstairs area is very large but felt completely empty, it honestly gave the impression of a “ghost restaurant.”
It’s a pity, because the place has potential, but the lack of ambiance downstairs really affects the overall experience.
