Me and my friend had a great experience dining at elNico on a very cold Thursday bight in January. All the dishes we tried were tasty and flavorful from the elote to the guac & chips, the cauliflower tacos were amazing, the main fish dish (it was fried cod) really good. We also enjoyed their version of margarita. Nice and kind server, Bryceon and manager Arianna.
The winterhouse set up outside was cool but way too cold to be there.
Overall good experience.

The chicken was too salty. The guacamole was very fresh. The service was slow. The server asked me if I wanted chips for the guacamole at the end of the meal as he was clearing the plates. I said “yes” but then he brought the check and not the chips. He probably couldn’t hear me because the music was too loud.

It is with an immense amount of sadness to say that we did not have a good experience at elNico. Leading up to our reservation I had heard a lot of hype about this place, so going into it my expectations were high. It has the potential to be more than amazing, from the stunning Manhattan views, deliciously crafted cocktails, and flavorful Mexican food. Once we were seated (we had a res) we sat down at our table for about 30 minutes before anybody checked in on us. At this point, we still didn’t even get water which is the bare minimum. We had to go inside the main dining room to ask the bartender for drinks AND food. Once we sat down again they kept bringing out various dishes and cocktails that we didn’t even order. Once the food finally arrived, we still didn’t have any water so we asked for some. It was incredibly frustrating and I don’t think I will be back, unless some serious work can be done within the service department. Quality service is equally as important as the food and drinks in my personal opinion. I also want to quickly add that some of the drinks made at the bar seemed very skimpy… some glasses were only 3/4 full :/

I LOVE THIS PLACE. they have literally the best guac in the world (even better than the ones i tried in Mexico). The prices are ok, the decoration is so nice and cozy. It’s a must if you’re in Williamsburg.

Really cool rooftop restaurant with great food and great views. Staff were excellent. Food was delivered quick. Prices were reasonable. They didn’t make you feel like you had to be rushed out. Whether the balcony, the greenhouse or inside, the place was a vibe. Definitely recommend.

We were *obsessed* with our experience here. The food was incredible, the drinks were creative and delicious, and the views were stunning. The outdoor area fills up fast (we came in at 6:30 on a Tuesday and it was already full) but the covered patio area was just as nice. Whoever our server was in that area was such a gem. Such a lovely guy!

Wish we would have discovered this gem sooner. Relaxing and expansive rooftop, panoramic views of Brooklyn and the City, delicious and accessible menu. Full bar. Great tequila selection.

Delicious Mexican food with a view! Juan our server was so kind and attentive. We will be going back! And we’ll definitely be bringing our dog next time (they’re dog-friendly).
We noticed the hostess didn’t have enough menus and had trouble keeping people from stealing tables outside. If she had a little more help, elNico would be a top tier Williamsburg restaurant!

I’m surprised not many people know about this place, I think they need more advertising on TikTok! Loved the vibe, food, view, and service. The view outside was so beautiful, but as it got chillier at night we asked to move inside and they quickly found a table for us. Also, special thanks to Francisco for the service and for taking such amazing pictures of us on my friend’s birthday. Will definitely come back! 🙂

Francisco, the manager, Joe, the bartender Bryson, the waiter Vincent the chef these are the most amazing people that I have ever met in the restaurant business. I love them. I love the atmosphere. I love the food. The drink drinks is on point. You don’t get no water down drink drinks Joe is the best bartender I’ve ever dealt with. They are so lovable and real people. I love it. You will love it too. Anybody looking for a nice spot in Brooklyn with a nice atmosphere. You got the roof
