Pampano’s sister restaurant just up the street on First Avenue, Maya is one of the best modern Mexican restaurants on the East Side. Try any of the ceviches followed by the chili citrus mahi mahi.
Sit at the bar and enjoy a delicious margarita while dining on a mix of chicken and beef fajitas. Finish your meal with the Mexican Fried Ice Cream.
Everything here is amazing, especially the black truffle quesadilla, guacamole trio, and the carne asada tacos. Wash it all down with a delicious margarita, and you've got the perfect Mexican meal.
Start with the crisp chips and tangy salsa with a grapefruit habanero margarita followed by the Enchiladas or Antojitos. The music is loud and the wait can be long but it’s worth it.
Do yourself a favor and order the pistachio guac, the melted tetilla cheese with lobster, and the pastrami tacos. You'll definitely leave happy!
For those looking for upscale Mexican, Pampano strikes the right tone. The menu is primarily comprised of fish and the $28 prix fix is a steal!
Some of the best margaritas and tacos in the city. We especially love coming here for the all you can eat tacos (only $23) and happy hour specials. Great food without breaking the bank!
This casual Mexican restaurant is cute but very noisy and overcrowded. You must try a Grilled Steak Chilaquiles with a Tequini.
Check out the pre-fixe brunch, try the Huevos Rancheros or the Three Beef Hash. Or, sit at the bar and get a lesson about Tequila from the bartender. Service can be very iffy.
Take advantage of the $25 all you can drink brunch special (get the sangria), although it only lasts for an hour and 15 minutes. The fish tacos are delicious!
Small Mexican joint in Nolita that serves up amazing tacos - we especially love tacos al pastor. The best part: tacos are served in corn tortillas, so your gluten-free friends can still enjoy!
This is not the place for a quiet dinner as the amazing margaritas will have you in a very jovial mood! Baby Back Ribs and the Grilled Sirloin will make your tummy happy too.
The ultra-exclusive restaurant downstairs isn't easy to snag a table at, so if you're out of luck, go to the more casual taqueria around the corner. You can get the same mouthwatering tacos here.
In our opinion, the best Mexican in Brooklyn. The shrimp and scallop enchiladas are perfect, and the pork adobo is a must-order dish as well. Awesome happy hour specials too!
One of our favorite Mexican spots in Brooklyn. You must start with the Esquites, followed by either the enchiladas verde or the fish tacos, plus a margarita to wash it all down.
This spot may look like nothing special from the outside, but they serve up some of the best burritos in the city. The Venice Burrito and the BBQ Duck Burrito are not to be missed.
If you're a tequila lover, you need to come here. There's a ton of different options to choose from, and the cocktails they craft are delicious. The food is also not to be missed - get the tacos!
Grab a table outside for lunch and after you’ve devoured some tasty guacamole, take a stab at an El Mexicano burger.
Enjoy awesome views of Manhattan while you devour tacos Al Pastor, or Lengua or Cabeza. Be daring with your choices and you’ll be rewarded.
Amazing tequila cocktails, particularly the Margarita Tamarindo, and delicious short rib tacos and queso fundido dishes.
Start your meal off with a Watermelon Basil Margarita, an order of guacamole, followed by the Carnitas tacos and Baja Fish tacos.
