Such a hidden gem in nyc! Feels like you’re in an actual cave. The hospitality is immaculate! Love the drinks they are pretty strong and the tacos are a must try! Probably one of the coolest establishments in nyc with daily deals so check them out!

Love this place so much everytime I go I forget to take fiod pictures. The food is great, drinks are solid and the atmosphere is always current with decorations for the season. There is always great music playing as well. Best to make a reservation in advance.

Great venue for singles, couples and groups of friends and/or families. Service was perfect and the food delicious. Drinks were on point too.

5 star food, service, and vibes. Amazing nachos, so much cheese! The best steak fajitas—they were juicy, usually at other places the steak is tough. And such a beautiful restaurant. Also the staff was SO kind.

The multitude of reviews highlighting the racism here are fitting.
I visited with my friend and sister who is under 21. My friend and I did the restaurant week promotion which comes with a margarita and my sister just got tacos because she wasn’t that hungry.
The drinks were great, the food was delicious, the atmosphere was fantastic, and they were bumping bangers on the speaker. However, we received some of the worst service ever. Like in general at any place. We were seated for over 2 hours because we waited at least 30 minutes in between each of our courses and drinks took about the same amount of time even though there were only maybe 4 other tables. Multiple other parties came and went before we even got our entrees. Our first waitress was such a sweetheart and apologetic about timing and confusion. All of us have worked customer service jobs sometimes nights are just hard and she was so amazing about it.
But who I assume to be the manager, because of her audacious cadence, approached me at our table with an attitude off rip. She tried to tell me that because my sister didn’t order the restaurant week promotion that all of our items would be charged separately. When I explained how that doesn’t make sense and my sister is under 21 and didn’t want that much food that came with it, she tried to tell me the promotion has to be for everyone at the table, which isn’t stated on the flyer, and they would have made her a mocktail (for the same price as a cocktail). Again, that doesn’t make sense.
We planned on leaving a cash tip, but when the manager brought our bill, there was a 20% auto gratuity added which I was offended by because we did not receive 20% service. In our experiences as customer service workers, auto gratuity for restaurant service is applied when the party is large or when you think the customer isn’t going to tip. When I skipped additional gratuity and paid what I was charged, she encouraged us to come again which I probably won’t if she’s on the schedule.
Extremes disappointed to have this experience on the first day of black history month. Definitely ruined our night.

Very beautiful and clean place. However, we waited quite a long time for the waitress, even though it didn’t seem very busy. She also wasn’t very friendly. I would recommend working more on the service.

I had such a great time here. Very chill spot, but the thing that really made this trip special was my bartender Danielle. She was so funny and easy to talk to and made a great Margarita. I will definitely be back!

Our severs were fantastic Renee and Z. The food here is great. The aesthetics is definitely my vibe. We came on a Sunday and felt so cool and calm. Renee and Z made sure we were good the entire 2 hours we spent here. Very attentive and friendly. No longs wait for the food at all.

I had a wonderful early dinner here. We had veg tacos, chicken tacos, guacamole, and the Elote.
Our server was extremely sweet, smiling the entire time and very quick to take our order and bring out our food.
The food was very flavorful and very fresh.
The ambience is so cool and does give the feeling like you’re in a cave.
We really enjoyed our meal.

I absolutely loved my experienced here. I spent my anniversary with my s/o, the staff helped out by writing out a poem of my s/o choice in a card when I arrived. Our server Jess was the sweetest and very attentive to our care. The food was amazing, nothing bad to say with either the service or food and extremely affordable!
