Am I biased? Yes. I live close by and I can walk here. Am I rooting with all of my heart and soul for this local gem to succeed beyond the charming owner’s wildest dreams? Yes. The love, heart and soul invested here deserve the greatest of returns. So, why do I love Cocina Consuelo so much. Well, the food is truly outstanding. It expresses everything I love about fine dining (deep complex flavors, authenticity, attention to detail, exquisite composition and balance) without any fussiness or pretension. It’s grandma’s food if grandma had a Michelin star. One dish not to miss: The Mole Negro featuring duck confit, chilhuacle and extraordinary hand made tortillas. Deep as the ocean and bright as the sun, this is my platonic ideal of mole. Don’t sleep on the papas either. There is a fine balance in this humble side between crispy skin and velvety mash that, well, I would love to know the secret to. The endive Caesar salad had anchovies to die for which perfectly offset the bitterness. For the gluten free and vegan, the Tortitas De Calabaza (Squash friters, guajillo broth, queso fresco) will certainly satisfy. They also serve a soul satisfying and unique brunch. Fantastic people, amazing food, great vibes. And location #2 is coming soon to the UWS!

We got in about 10:30 am and were able ro sit right away. The service was friendly and attentive. We appreciate the quality of the service and food. We ordered the chorizo quesadilla, the masa pancake and the tortillas con huevo. Loved the chorizo quesadilla especially how fresh the tortilla tasted. The strawberry syrup on the pancake reminded me of home. The kitchen may be small but the heart put into these dishes is amazing. Made me feel at home and was a lovely ambiance.

We had lunch at Cocina Consuelo today and left with mixed but overall positive impressions. While the food was good, the hype felt a bit greater than the overall quality.
That said, the pancake was truly outstanding and possibly the best pancake I’ve ever had. This is absolutely worth the visit on its own. The tortilla con huevos was flavorful but quite small for the price, and the quesadilla was solid yet nothing particularly memorable.
Where Cocina Consuelo really shines is the experience. The service was tremendous. Despite the wait, the hostess went out of her way to make us feel welcome by offering coffee and ensuring we were well taken care of. The atmosphere was another highlight — warm and inviting, almost like dining in someone’s home.
With a few additional menu options and a better balance between portion size and pricing, this would easily be a five-star experience. As it stands, it’s a lovely spot with great service and a standout pancake.

If you ever want to feel like you’re in Mexico City walking through Roma Norte – this is the spot!
Before you even walk in, the colors from outside is already pulling you in, even if you didn’t plan on stopping here. The ambiance and vibe was amazing. A bit cozy but I don’t mind that at all.
Started off with the fennel salad which was tangy with a little kick. Nice and refreshing to start the meal off with.
We then followed up with the bone marrow Birria and the mole negro which is a confit duck leg. Besides my spot in the south Bronx, this is next up on the mole list. It was delicious and savory and not too heavy.
Once the bone marrow dish is done, you get a shot which is cilantro infused vodka! Salut!
Finished with this deconstructed tiramisu which wasn’t too sweet which is the way I love my desserts.
I will definitely come here again to try some other dishes just because this spot deserves it.
Shoutout to the owner saying she only works there and was being humble, but I do my research before hitting up a spot so thank you for being yourself and providing this wonderful experience with your staff.

Outstanding food. Great vibe. Warm people.
The restaurant is a small 20 seater + a patio for the summer. We made th Saturday brunch & were the last seating at 2PM.
The food takes it time, but boy-o-boy was it freaking delicious.
The Masa pancake was light as air. Imagine corn-bread, but toasted & super light. The toffee sauce — not too sweet, just complementing the corn.
Hibiscus quesadilla was the best. Thick shell, tangy sorrel — Outstanding. Blown away.
The Vegan fajitas were fabulous — the mushrooms had so much flavor. The cactus was cactusy — slimy & with a bite.
The Cheese torta was great too. The Oaxaca shining through the sandwich.
The people were warm, the atmosphere was great, everyone looked like they enjoyed working at the place & that reflected in the awesome food.
Should definitely plan a dinner visit.

Been on my list forever and it absolutely delivered ✨ Just a heads up, it’s a cozy, small space and it gets BUSY, so if you’re pulling up hungry-hungry, grab a little snack beforehand.
The staff was amazing! You can truly feel the passion in this place.

We went for brunch on a cold morning and really enjoyed everything we tried. The masa pancakes are the best pancakes I’ve ever eaten. I would ask for the syrup and berry compote on the side next time though. The torta was large and had the perfect amount of each ingredient. Chorizo quesadillas were a huge hit too and reheated well as leftovers. The one thing we didn’t love was that they charged $3 for a chili oil. It was tasty and unique, but I would’ve been fine with a regular hot sauce. I didn’t know they would upcharge on that.

Exquisite uptown venue for artful Mexican – Dominican food served in cozy space that feels like you stopped by for dinner at the home of artists-musicians. Service is extremely friendly and the food is extraordinary. I didn’t know anything about the restaurant before eating there but it felt very fancy – indeed the owners are alums of eleven madison park and Cosme. All makes sense now!
What we had: the Caesar was unconventional and delicious with endive and the right number of juicy anchovies. Must-get roasted candy-cane beets with kicky chile sauce. Duck mole, beautiful presentation of duck confit on an ocean of lovely chocolate-y mole, handmade masa tortillas. The dessert – off-menu – was a roasted purple sweet potato in a silky vanilla sauce, one of the best desserts I have had in the last 12 months. Cocktails are excellent and carefully made; non-alcoholic options are thoughtfully curated.
Don’t expect slick mid-town corporate restaurant service with a million employees making it a smooth experience. This is a small place with a small staff and you can expect to wait patiently and with a smile: everything will be great (and it was!).

I don’t think I have ever felt welcomed in a place as I did. The person helping us – a woman in a black suit, was very friendly and warm. The food was great! You may have to wait for seating but it was worth it. The pancakes were excellent! A must-have!!

Great food. Get the fluffy masa pancake, where the corn is the star of the show, contrasting the browned flavors against the gentle sweetness. The tortilla were delightful as well.
A few nitpicks: my pancake was underdone in the center, and I tasted aluminum from the baking powder. Please look into aluminum-free products as some people are really sensitive to the taste! Still delicious.
