This is definitely a hidden cool spot ! When you walk in
This is definitely a hidden cool spot ! When you walk in the ambience is cozy and ideal for small groups . This place is a bit small and they move very quickly to get you seated, to get you your food and give you the bill. If you are hungry and don't want to wait too long for your food, this is a great place . The chips and guacamole was amazing and they had happy hour Friday night $8 margaritas !!!! Great Mexican spot .
Be the first to ReplyI'm a carnitas person.
This is the only Mexican joint in NYC where I actually crave the vegetarian dishes. The rajas con queso quesadilla absolutely fucks. Plus, this is the only place where you can see Larry Clark, a tiktok cool kid, and an off-duty janitor vibing to nine inch nails while drinking margs. Come for the affordable Michelin rated fare, stay for the homie vibes.

Kyle makes the best margaritas. The shrimp quesadilla was amazing. I would definitely come back.
Be the first to ReplyCame here for date night once and have been back another
Came here for date night once and have been back another two times within the last month. Their tacos are delicious, their margaritas are strong, and their staff kind. This place is rather dimly lit and compact although they do offer outdoor seating which is great during the warmer seasons. They've got high top tables and a few lower ones, you can also sit at the bar facing the street or the kitchen. Food wise, highly recommend carnitas tacos. Their tacos are filled with so much meat, you will be full after an order of them. Boyfriend enjoys their agua frescas and mango margaritas. Their bathroom is clean but again, quite dimly lit. The ambiance is super laid back and chill and the staff are all super nice and approachable. I really enjoy the vibes and food of this place and it's going to be a regular rotation for date nights. Highly recommend trying them out!

I was around the area so a friend and I popped in to have lunch together on a Saturday. This spot was on my list for a while because it is on Michelin's Bib Gourmand list.Enchiladas de Mole Oaxaqueno: A MUST! The flavor of the mole is amazing. It is probably the best mole I have ever had. I would come out of my way to eat here again.Taco Gobernador: The shrimp is huge!! Even though it is on the pricey side, it was totally worth it. One of the best shrimp tacos I've ever had.10/10 would go again here! I highly recommend!

Was im a rush, and ordered their Watermelon Steak Salad __ my goodness thst was so good. Teally kicking myself for not slowing down for a good sit down. Next time I'm in town for damn sure. I love everything about my home here in CA, but damn something about NY cooking !!!!!

I've been here once before and had the burrito and was really good, tonight I had the carne asada and it was beyond tough it came out really quick also which makes me think it was being cooked for awhile, the other things that came with were good but I don't think I'd try it again, some the tortilla chips were soggy as well, I'd come back but have something different, the drinks are really good also,I've just seen pics that others have had and the carne asada was different it's pre sliced steak that I had, I'd avoid it

Every single thing I had there was delicious! The mole was some of the best I've ever had. I would recommend the guac trio. Enchiladas plates are absolutely huge. Happy hour until 7 for lime margs, micheladas, and beer and shot combo.
Be the first to ReplyThey say miracles happen when you least expect it.
I had accepted the area I frequent in NYC only has subpar Mexican food. Every bite I have of Gordos seems like angels shooting miracle magic yummy time into my mouth.
Be the first to ReplyGreat service, flavorful, juicy & delicious food, drinks
Great service, flavorful, juicy & delicious food, drinks are perfect. Best michelada we've ever had. Margaritas are perfectly strong and expertly made.

Amazing food, good services, I recommend obviously tacos, quesadillas and micheladas.
Be the first to ReplySad, flavorless carnitas tacos.
Good service/ambiance. Silly credit card processing fee for a large bill. Weird tingly guac with tasteless chips. Underwhelming and overpriced.

Love this place! The food is always so fresh :) the spicy margaritas are also really good!
Be the first to ReplySmall spot, cute place.
The drinks are what I would deff come back for-!! I didn't love my chicken tacos they were kinda dry and lacking flavor, but my husband got the Burrito birria. It was bomb! Will return for sure try some other food options. Also , such a fun bathroom lol the whole place has a nice vibe
Be the first to ReplyOk. Firstly, this place has the best mole in nyc. Flat out.
Ok. Firstly, this place has the best mole in nyc. Flat out. Hands down. Anything involving the pulled pork, achiote, chicken quesadilla, also delish. Portions are generous, you'll have food for lunch the next day, and it will taste just as good, if not better. All mezcal margs are fantastic, especially the prickly pear. The only thing I wouldn't recommend is the huit la coche tacos- more corn than smut. Ha. And a little bit too bitter in general. Everything else is amazing.
Be the first to ReplyFun atmosphere, yummy drinks (treat yourself to a
Fun atmosphere, yummy drinks (treat yourself to a strawberry agua fresca or margarita!) but the food was just ok. Guacamole de la Abuela was our favorite!The elote wasn't what I wanted- they use a softer blander corn but I prefer the firmer sweeter ones.Birria tacos were ok, on the saltier side. Burrita was fun but also nothing spectacular. None of the food was bad but nothing was exciting enough that I want to come back for it.
Be the first to ReplySmall cozy spot.
Service was great. Food was great. . Ordered the steak quesadilla and the pork belly quesadilla and yummy!!!
Be the first to ReplyGreat vibe and great food! The bartenders and staff are
Great vibe and great food! The bartenders and staff are really chill and friendly, and make the atmosphere inviting and laid-back. I've tried almost all the vegetarian options on the dinner menu and they've all been so good. I haven't tried their tacos especiales which I lowkey refuse to order because they're a bit overpriced in my opinion. That's probably my only criticism and that's just because I have certain principles about Mexican food (I'm Mexican), like not paying $10 for a taco. But all the dishes and drinkssss (yes the Micheladas are amaaazze and you'll keep the margaritas coming) are delicious, you'll def want to go again and again. I should know- I'm there basically once a week.
Be the first to ReplyUpdate:I know that I wrote a review after having brunch
Update:I know that I wrote a review after having brunch here when Gordos first opened but I just wanted to leave another review stating that this place continues to make great food, in a cozy atmosphere, with friendly and helpful servers. We went back last Tuesday to celebrate my birthday and we were treated very well, enjoyed every single item that was ordered and will definitely continue to return to this place. There is a huge difference when you can tell that the owners actually care about your experience in their restaurant, and you can taste it in their food too!Thank you Gordo's and Pualina for your generous hospitality.
Be the first to ReplyI'm all about supporting local businesses so I stopped by
I'm all about supporting local businesses so I stopped by here. I saw a Michelin sign outside and reviews, so I was very excited to try their food.The drinks were good so I'll be coming back for those, the service was good as well.I had higher expectations for the food. I will say that I only had appetizers, but as a person that visits Mexican restaurants often I was a bit underwhelmed.
Be the first to ReplyThe food was good and the margaritas were strong! I came by
The food was good and the margaritas were strong! I came by because this place is in my neighborhood and Michelin rated, so I had to try it. The guacamole was fantastic and I would come back for that alone. The tacos pollos were good, but the chicken was a little bland. Some of the chips that came with my guacamole were soft and chewy and not fried long enough. I did expect a bit more from a Michelin rated restaurant. But I cannot stress enough how good the guacamole was. I'll definitely come back to try more dishes! A little expensive for what it is- hole in the wall vibes- but it's NYC and Michelin rated, so who am I to complain? If you're in the neighborhood and craving Mexican, this place is a solid option. The staff is very fun and vibey as well. They were playing a lot of music from my middle school era- blink, cascada, the works- which is always fun!
Be the first to ReplyWhere to start .
... thank goodness this place is 4 minutes away & we came here ready to eat! Ordered a few things because we like to try a lot and take the rest home for later. Pretty much Everything was a hit! Let's start with the water- yes, the water! I even critique tap water because I'm from NYC and we have some good tap. Cold & served in the cute little metal cups like from my wellas house. Classic margarita- nice and strong! I had two. More than enoughSALSAS- from the antojos options. Fresh chips. Fresh salsas which were all on point. I love the variety of heat offered. Took these salsas home to go! El chapo- a hot dog but Mexican. With crema and pico de gallo. Simple but yummy. Ensalada de aguacate- this was really really good. There was no dressing that came with this and I'm not even too sure there was dressing in it. But it was so fresh and the avocado was more than enough. Corn tomatoes and sliced almonds. I loved every bite. Carnitas tacos were really good. Heavy on the savory meat too! Pulpo tacos were yummy but just very slightly over cooked and obviously not going to be as hefty as a carnitas or chicken. Shrimp taco- deliciousness! Shrimp were cooked to perfection as well with the yummy flavoring and sauce. For Dessert we had the fresh crema stuffed churros which come with chocolate dipping sauce that was craaaaaaazy good. Can't wait to have more of that! And tres leches I believe delicious too. The staff was very attentive and friendly as well. I particularly loved the decor that it was a huge focal point for me. This spot is Worth every calorie and every penny!
Be the first to ReplyI have had 3 wonderful meals here .
The drinks are also well made and there is a happy hour. One can sit at a table the bar or outside . The flavors are so authentic and wonderful . The food is so fresh I always assume because of the size of the restaurant it would be very crowded I have never experienced that. It is cool and casual and one doesn't feel rushed I have had the shrimp cocktail type appetizer, birria quesadilla (twice) and a salad I want to try the guacamole trio which is an appetizer This place is good for solo dates or with friends
Be the first to ReplyIt's OKAY.
It's edible. It's not awful but it definitely is not what others are making it out to be. As a Mexican that travels to Mexico 3-4x per year, this is not it. I came here with high expectations due the Michelin review and other reviewers. I was disappointed. I love supporting local businesses and my partner and I have a tradition of supporting local every Thursday and on this Thursday as I sit here looking at my food, I have regrets. I'll be back for the drinks though, those are pretty good. The meat was super dry and everything tasted of garlic. :( Better spots for less: plaza Ortega on Myrtle and stanhope, nenes taqueria on Starr. You can't go wrong!
