Cactus Shop has easily become my favorite place in Williamsburg! i hosted my birthday here and the team was incredible! they set the vibes, they were so accommodating and the entire staff was so friendly. Don’t forget the drinks, they’re all delicious! The bartenders are creating masterpieces and every single drink is mouthwatering. Run don’t walk! The decor is also so instagram worthy!

The food at The Cactus Shop NYC is absolutely delightful and bursting with authentic flavours! We were a group of four — two of us are vegan and loved the zucchini and mushroom tacos, while the rest of us had the birria and it was just yummmm! The guacamole and chips were so fresh and delicious too. Highly recommend this spot for anyone craving authentic, flavourful Mexican food.

Have you ever been invited to a party by a friend of a friend? You show up with said friend (Jess), wait in line, have a few drinks in the crowded bar. The bar/club is so crowded you actually bump into 2 separate people you know. You chat with them, make some small talk with others, and after about 30 minutes you realize, you are too tired and sober to make the most of that environment.
Your friend Jess looks at you, her facial expression indicating she’s had the same realization. You decide yall should leave and get a snack. That decision brings you out of the crowded bar/club thing and you head to the closest food option possibly. But, what you don’t know is the gold that you have struck on. You’re met with a friendly staff and some fancy cocktails with perhaps the best salsa in the city. Maybe hunger is the best sauce or maybe friendship is the best spice. But this place is so good. You both are sitting at the corner seat at the bar in the busiest, loudest city in the world, but you’re chit chatting with an old friend over chips and quesadillas and suddenly life feels calm, the world is quiet, and all you focus on is good food drink and friendship
Drinks, food, Benito style music. 5/5 stars

We happened to walk past Cactus Shop, and I’m so glad we did! We went in for brunch and loved every bite. The chilaquiles and tacos al pastor were incredible. We started with the guac and plantain chips so fresh .
We had the pleasure of meeting Luis, who was so attentive, along with the rest of the amazing staff. The cocktails were delicious, and I also tried one of the Mocktails,you can truly taste the passion and love in every drink.
Highly recommend this spot, beautifully decorating .Can’t wait to come back!

Cactus Shop not only offered innovative and delicious cocktails, but some very flavorsome bites as well. Its dim and romantic lighting filled the entirety of the space, setting the overall mood and tone for the restaurant throughout. The waiters were attentive and kind, and both of the dishes we ordered were excellent. I’d definitely go back!

I’ve been to The Cactus Shop a few times, more recently I worked with the GM, Luis, to reserve the front area for an engagement party with a sizable group. Luis and the staff were so helpful and accommodating, we truly had the best time! From custom menus, to allowing us to decorate the space and personalize it for the party to a flexible bar and food ordering process I would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone looking to host an event! It’s also a great date spot if you’re looking for something cute and delicious in Williamsburg!

Had the best time at The Cactus Shop celebrating my 29th birthday. Luis was so helpful and answered all my questions. They even offered to create a special menu for my party. The custom menu really made the event feel special, I sent over my invite and they did a wonderful job matching the vibe!
Dinner and drinks were great, especially loved that there was no forced prefix for the larger party. My favorite dish was the squash blossom quesadilla.
Will definitely be going back.

The atmosphere was awesome in this restaurant and the food matched. It was delicious and the hostess was also our waitress. She was very friendly and overall it was a really great experience!

I had a great meal on their (covered) patio for margs and tacos! The margarita prices are typical for the area ($17). I enjoyed the birria tacos ($19); they came with 4 instead of the usual 3, and the consomme wasn’t too salty like a lot of places do it.
