Great place to grab a bit of your not there for the night vibes. Food and service were great. Great happy hour prices and lunch special is a steal in Manhattan for 3 tacos and a beer. The owner was cool and very knowledgeable about his stuff and seems to care about what he does. I would definitely recommend coming here at least once.

Can't lie, the spicy 🍍 margaritas were insanely good... The frozen hibiscus margs were also delicious. The food was great, fish tacos -wings - and the bone marrow burger was so damn good. Definitely recommending and will definitely be back.

The worst service spot, insane wait times during brunch hours. Food was decent, michelada was nice but small (you don’t get the rest of the beer on the side so the mix can be very strong). If you have all the time to wait then this can be a happy hour you sit at for a while since its basically all day.. but for a larger group definitely not worth it.

This is a nice spot in Chinatown with some amazing cocktails and fun vibes! Their tacos were my favorite. Great to host private events as well. Someone was celebrating their birthday party when we visited and it seemed like an amazing event! Definitely check out their amazing happy hour too when you get a chance

Shout out to Adrian and Charley who went above and beyond for us. So many drinks are made with housemade liquors and natural ingredients. Everything is made to order and tasted fresh, flavorful and yummy. Highly recommend the hibiscus freeze and naval margarita. The green tea shots I could have ten more too. The guacamole and house made chips outstanding. Big amount. The shrimp cocktail was better than anywhere in the USA. Big juicy shrimp in a sauce with buttery crackers and fresh avocado. The vegetarian quesadillas and tacos delicious. The corn toro are so tasty you can taste the corn. All the hot sauce and sauces are house made. Everything is made to order. The steak frite my friend loved. This is nyc at its best. A. Jungle modern speakeasy in the heart of Chinatown.
