I had dinner tonight at this place. Definitely recommend to check it out. Authentic food, good service, and a comfortable space. I was not very hungry so couldn’t try much stuff, menu is simple yet with enough variety of things. I had the pastor Tlayuda, which was more than enough for one person. It’s not a common dish to find at a Mexican restaurant, but highly recommend to try it. The person on the table next to me was compelled enough to change his mind and order the same after seeing mine. Micheladas are good as well, and spicy salsas available.
They have a good variety of cocktails and mezcal, however I didn’t get to try it. This will be my excuse to come back and try.
I observed the manager checking in on tables, so it felt that they really care to build a loyal base of customers.

I’m so glad I found this gem! I brought my date here and just knew I was going to be to be a hit. From Valentina ( the experience Speacialist) to being greeted with a warm welcome by Francisco. We walked in and the vibe was just right. Great set up, top tier service, and the food…. DAYUMMM! Que deliciouso!!! Everything was so fresh and delicious! We got to taste a little something from each part of the menu. And couldn’t wait for the next plate! Highly recommend!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

El Lugar Cantina is a new contemporary Mexican restaurant in Midtown. It is known for its extensive tequila and mezcal menu and $2 taco Happy Hour deal. They’ve just launched a new menu on the weekend serving up brunch food with a Mexican twist.

Thank you Francisco and our server for the warmest hospitality. They were so welcoming and knowledgeable. We could wholeheartedly feel their passion about the food and cocktails they’re serving.

*Breakfast Egg Tostadas
Highly recommended! Each tostada was loaded with a fresh plop of guacamole, sunny side-up egg, honey-glazed bacon and cilantro. The mixed flavors and textures were bursting in my mouth.

*Beef Short Rib and Waffle
A Mexican version of Chicken Waffle, while the proteins were substituted with shredded beef and crispy bacon. The beef was so tender. The housemade butter served on the side literally melted on the warm and chewy waffle.

*Champiñones Tlayudas
I know we had to order their signature tlayudas. We picked the mushroom one and it was SO GOOD!! Tlayudas is a wood-fired Mexican pizza with a corn-tortilla base. The crust was so thin and crispy, heavily topped with mushrooms, corn and cheese. We were stuffed but still enjoyed it because it was very light.

*Faux-Loma (<.05% alcohol)
* In a Hamkock in Tulum
Their cocktails and mocktails are the highlights of their menu. Must order

We LOVE el lugar!! Fantastic margaritas, guac, and tacos. The service is arguably better than the food. Ambiance is also 10/10. Love the new pop-up space. Will follow wherever they end up next!

I had the chance to visit the restaurant with a group of friends in a weekday specifically for their happy hour. Located continently near several subways in midtown, this venue is a classic Mexican spot that boasts a large seating area as well as a bar the length of the restaurant itself. When we arrived we opted to sit at the bar where the bartender took our drink order and also was able to serve us food. Their happy hour consisted of a variety of two dollar tacos, all which were extremely tasty. I also decided to get a beer which was six dollars during their happy hour special. All in all a great experience for an awesome price!
