This place went viral based off the drinks and the brunch atmosphere. I must say, everything you see that’s viral take it with a grain of salt.
I will take ownership of the fact that, the birthday party seating amount was changed from 8 to 11 people. However, this was confirmed with the staff prior to arriving and they said they were okay with accommodating the large party. If they could not, they should have said so.
Food: Extremely small portions, overpriced and lacking flavor. We ordered tacos, and it was size of the bottom of a red solo cup, not even double tortilla, for a price point of $20 plus. I had steak over fries, I did not know they literally meant cut up steak over shoestring fries. What an absolute rip off for $27.00. Wings were ordered and they tasted like they were turning bad, we sent them back. Food is mediocre and lacking flavor, expensive for such small portions and just overall a disappointing experience. We had to get food after.
Tables/Seating: They squeezed in a table of 12 people on a tabletop of 3 tables. Absolutely ridiculous. I asked that they add a table or split the party to which the manager who appeared to be Irish kept saying he didn’t have tables. I informed him they were getting paid regardless, so fix the problem, as we were sitting on top of each other. Sitting on stools with no backing, super uncomfortable, not to mention, we were by the door and the draft was cold, windy, coming through this heavy curtain that was useless.
Customer Service: Our server we had was rude, the manager was not polite, lacking customer service front of the house expertise, no sense of apologies for their shortcoming and the hostess is even more useless. I asked for a manager, she mentioned, she already addressed the issue with a guest from the party, I informed her this was not my question and my issue went above her pay grade. We had an issue with the bill and the server said she wasn’t in “the mood” to deal with it. In addition to rushing us, walking away from the table when questions are asked, just overall disgusting with her attitude. We asked to remove her 20% automatic gratuity, as this is an option, so we could leave what we wanted.
Drinks: After 2 drinks, it becomes nauseating tasting the artificial flavor from the mimosas. I didn’t understand why we paid for bottomless and instead of leaving the pitchers on the table with such a large party, server kept coming back, delayed. They tried forcing everyone to drink at the table, which how could you, if not everyone drinks and you have drivers? Nice little lawsuit on deck with this one.
Stay away from this location, they cram you into a small establishment, with tacky customer service and disgusting food for a price point which isn’t reasonable at all. The manager, Irish male, dismissive, goes back and forth and I’m not really sure who’s in charge of this puppet show. There are so many other locations in midtown and LES where you can get a better experience and bang for your buck.

A high end contemporary atmosphere and the food was full of flavor. I like their salmon tacos and arrechera (skirt steak marinated in beer). The restaurant has a party vibe in the evening and a rooftop patio with taquila bar. The menu indicates options for vegan, gluten fee, and dairy free. Great drinks, cocktails, and service. They do have a dress code, so beware if you show up looking like riffraff.

The place was a good spot for a brunch, I wish the tables had a bit more space for two so we can fit the dishes. The wings and empanadas were really good, my favorite was the Al pastor tacos, Birria was a bit underwhelming so I recommend the fish/ shrimp options, Al pastor, or steak. The margaritas were good as well I got the passionfruit, overall not bad we came for a quick bite and they were able to seat us quickly which was nice! Very loud with the music so not a place to chill on the weekends, I am sure it is more relaxed on weekdays, deff a place to come for brunch to get lit and enjoy your time

This place is such a vibe!
I’ve stopped by a couple of times now, and Memo has been amazing every single visit. His attentiveness and genuine hospitality always make us come back. He checked in on everyone in my group to make sure we were good or needed another drink, and I truly appreciate that level of care. Alberto he kept refilling our waters, we just love how attentive they are.
This time we tried the steak nachos and the yuca fries,both were absolutely delicious. The mango margaritas are yummy! The decor is also on point and adds to the whole experience.
Highly recommend!

Excellent food, great drinks! Everything is reasonably priced for midtown Manhattan. My friend and I walked in on a Thursday night without a reservation and got a spot at the bar. Great time! There is also a rooftop.

We went to Vida Verde to celebrate Christmas Eve with our family, and it was such a lovely experience.
The food was absolutely delicious (tacos ❤️), with generous portions and beautifully balanced flavors. The cocktails were also excellent : fresh, well crafted, and perfect for the evening.
Beyond the food, the atmosphere really stood out. The space is beautiful, warm, and inviting, with a great vibe.
And the staff? Incredibly kind.
A wonderful place to gather, celebrate, and enjoy a great meal together.

The food here is really really good. Prices are amazing like I wouldn’t even go anywhere else for brunch or anywhere for that matter! The queso fundido is sooo good, I got shrimp quesadillas which was also very tasty. I recommend this place, & will be back for sure

Celebrated my birthday here and got a pitcher of classic Margarita. Delicious! We also ordered a Bestek quesadilla and the Barritio bowl. The portions were generous, fresh and quality. I’ve never tasted a grilled bestek in quesadilla.
Our bar tender Ricky was charismatic, engaging, and able to make us feel valued and comfortable. He took good care of us and was very attentive without being too much in your face. He anticipated our needs quickly.
The restaurant it self was a party vibe. Great music and decor. We’ll definitely be back especially since its so close to everything.
Thank you Ricky!
We have no pics because we were so in the moment. 🙂

Jack was my server tonight, and he was amazing. My family, friends, and I had a really nice evening out. I truly appreciate his patience with us. The atmosphere in the store was cute, and the music playlist was very diverse. Overall, I really enjoyed myself tonight.

This place was not what we expected, but in a good way. We went about 9pm, they had a live DJ. The upbeat party atmosphere was great. This did not detract from the bartender providing us with excellent service. We ordered the nachos and quesadilla. They were both absolutely fantastic. The tequila selection here was great and the bartender knew his stuff when it came to what tequila was what. We will definitely be returning here and I highly recommend you check it out as well!
