Profile

With its papaya- and mango-colored walls, jauntily hung sombreros, and gleaming tile floors, this corner Mexican place is conspicuously cheerful. Tourists and NYU students occupy the plain Formica tables, happy with their pitchers of margaritas, bowls of tortilla chips, and giant baskets of steaming tacos. And why not? While “spicy” picadillo and pork tinga (ground beef and shredded pork) come with puddles of black beans and ketchupy salsa, plainer dishes like pico de gallo quesadillas and white-meat chicken enchiladas are decent enough. Both of the latter are made with hot, fresh-pressed tortillas and tasty Manchego cheese. After a long slog through Greenwich Village, it’s hard to find fault with a cheap feed and a big, fruity drink. — Sarah Gold

I ate here for lunch last friday, and didn't eat again until Monday morning. And not because it was filling. In fact, you might say it was quite the opposite. If you are considering eating here, do make sure you...Read More
