Wanted to give them place a try. Just got one taco and they filled it up to the max. Meat falling out and they included every topping and house made tortilla chips. Flavors were okay, nothing super exciting. I don’t think it was the more sanitary kitchen though one lady was continually coughing in the back. And food is out in the open a bit. So would I go here again? Maybe if I was like drunk and wanted dirty tacos. But I’m not sure since the kitchen really turned me off

This bar is veryyyy fun they have a bunch of events here too. There’s a taco place in the bar of the bar and that’s where I got my food and it’s fire. Kind of a hidden gem. Would come here again for sure

It’s totally great. Although as a matcha girl I was disappointed to see that they don’t have matcha. This is totally the perfect barebones coffee place. Like not a lot of syrups to choose from either. I got an oat latte and it was good! Their coffee is definitely of quality but I think most of my points are going towards atmosphere. The shop is huge there’s a lot of places to sit and performatively read and do work. I would take a big group here if we wanted to just get coffee and chill!

Wow I’ve never been so impressed by a coffee shop before! It was crowded when I went and I waited in the line for very long time but I would do it again because it was so good. I got a vanilla iced matcha here and I could tell that it was quality matcha because it tasted so smooth and umami. I’m also surprised with the amount of effort they put into their drinks! Worth the 8$

I got a toffee nut iced matcha with oat milk. here and I asked for light ice and watched her dump a bunch of ice in my cup lol. But that’s fine, and the drink its self was fine! I should go again and actually get some baked goods so I can better judge this place. But like the the ice matcha was already burning a hole in my pocked with it being $8.71. I guess that’s “Ny” for you but like I really hate when coffee shops charge extra for oat milk. I don’t get it and perhaps I never will, and I will keep saying this in probably all my reviews.

This place makes a good bagel is you’re in a pinch, being in NYC I would not go out of my way to get a bagel here but that’s just me. They have nice and flavorful bagels if you like really thick bread. I usually get plan with veggie cream cheese when I’m craving a bagel near my office. Although there’s better places in the city where you can get a bagel and cream cheese that’s not over 7 dollars!

Never had vegan Mexican before, I got the “birria” tacos and salsa gauc & chips. I could not tell the the tacos didn’t contain meat. It hit me with a lot of flavor and a small heat kick. Even if you’re not vegan you will enjoy this meal!! A plus is that this restaurant has great list of mocktails for anyone trying to get by dry Jan! ;)
