    Solid spot for some lunch tacos. We did not make a reservation and walked in with three people, and were easily able to get a table. The food itself wasn't truly mindblowing, but it wasn't bad either. Definitely a solid spot for lunch!

    Came here for brunch and found the food to be decent. It didn't really blow me away or impress me that much. I think the price of the dishes was good but they also reflect the quality of the food that you get. The drink I ordered was pretty strong though which I was happy about lol. The service was great and attentive. We chose to sit outside since it was good weather but probably would have preferred inside since there were a couple of mosquitoes and there was no wind so the air felt kind of stale. Not their fault though. Probably wouldn't come back and would opt to try a new place instead.

    I like the vibe in here, but the food could definitely be better. The prices are too high for what you get and if you come in for happy hour you only get 2 tacos for the price vs 3 on the regular menu. The food is alright. Nothing special nor all that good.

    Came here for bottomless brunch for $37. Half of my table partook (I did not), and I had the burrito. - Chicken Burrito Loco, (2.5/5): not exactly my favorite burrito... the chicken was dry, the burrito was primarily dry potato, and the whole burrito was lacking in flavor. There was hot sauce on the side, but it did not save the burrito :( - Chips & Guac, (4.5/5): pretty good! Nice and spicy and it was mixed perfectly. Tasted fresh and the chips had a nice hold to them. Staff were however, very attentive and friendly.

    3.3 stars. Cozy Mexican bar and restaurant close to the Stone Street bars downtown that draws a happy hour and drinks crowd looking to unwind after the workday. Food is decent and affordable for the neighborhood, staff are friendly. It's got a dim, warm ambiance, though it can get a little loud when full. On a Wednesday without reservations my friend and I were seated at the bar immediately. Passed menus and water, the staff asked if we had any questions. The menu was pretty simple apps, entrees and sides on one side, drinks and cocktails on the other. We ordered: - Empanadas $15 choice of chicken, pork or beef: potato, sweet peppers, anion, salsa verde cruda, salsa endiablada. We chose beef and were happy with our choice, the shell was crispy and slightly flaky while retaining juicy flavor inside. Solid app. Of the sauces the red one had a little kick, the green one was a little sweeter. - California Bowl $16: corn, avocado, queso fresco, cherry tomatoes, iceberg lettuce, cucumbers, jicama, red onion, ranch dressing, served in an edible taco bowl. My friend has this and I didn't try it. - Shrimp Tacos $22: tempura shrimp, refried beans, pepper jack cheese, coleslaw, chile de arbol aioli. The tacos were kinda mid, the tempura shrimp were cooked ok though not great; there were sufficient toppings included though the spiciness of the aioli (which came drizzled on top) blew out the flavor of everything else. I can see how this place is a chill hang, the waitstaff and bartenders checked in periodically, and were easygoing and friendly. I might come back if around the neighborhood again.

    We randomly found this restaurant after disembarking from the ferry. It was only a short walk from the ferry terminal. The restaurant is an average size, and uniquely designed with an intimate atmosphere. Service was just okay, nothing bad but also nothing that stood out. Portion sizes were small and food was average.

    Amazing Mexican restaurant! Such gorgeous interior with charming lights. The service is amazing. The host and the waiter Arcenio were great and very attentive. We ordered the burrito loco, spicy queso fries and the pozole de pollo. My friend said the pozole reminded her of homemade quality pozole! The menu is very creative and something for everybody. This isn't my first time here and definitely not my last!!! 1000/10

    Love this fun Mexican spot right next to the ferry and subway! Came here for happy hour and enjoyed their house margaritas and got the cauliflower tacos! Friendly and prompt service and great food! I'll have to come back for their brunch, but a nice choice and convenient location for a quick drink/ apps

    Nice convenient place with great vibe and decor. Staff is friendly and attentive. They offer a great happy deal on drinks and some food menu items. During the weekend they have brunch and sone days a DJ. Pleasant place to have a cocktail or meal with friends.

    It feels like old world Manhattan in this old Stone Street building. Fun and festive with delicious food and excellent service. I like the nachos, wings, birria tacos, and sangria. They have gluten free and vegan options indicated on the menu. Big portions and decent prices with outdoor seating in the back.

    If you're looking for a great place to hang out with friends and to have good drinks and good food this is it ! While yelping a good Mexican restaurant around the area where it won't be busy but it will still have a good time with good vibes and good music . The carne asada tacos were delicious, I wish I would have try other ones too, and the drinks were perfect not too sweet !

    Went for Sunday brunch. Food & service were great. There's no longer a drag brunch so their website should be updated to reflect that.

    How are the vegan options?

    They're are some options

    Are reservations required? Or walk ins encouraged?

    I've never tried walking in because I've gone with groups, but they're usually pretty busy at brunch time!

    Is there a happy hour? If so what genre of music is played?

    I was there for a Brunch (til 3pm) and the music was hip hop dance music from 90's on. I loved the live DJ and his music! (It was also VERY loud. So be prepared to lose your voice.)

    Is there happy hour?

    Hi Angie, we don’t have happy hour

    Is there a DJ at all during Sunday brunch or only the drag show?

    What time does the shows start on Saturday/ Sunday?

Ordered a Cadillac Margarita (Casamigos) for me + Vodka Martini (Grey Goose) for my partner + thick Fries + Slice of Chocolate Cake Drinks weren't anything special but the fries were hreat and cake hit the spot.

Things I dream of all in one sexy, cozy place that whisks you far away from the streets of Manhattan. Our chairs were comfy, and there were many seating areas that looked equally as inviting.

    I picked Chambers for my husband's birthday dinner primarily because of the exceptional wine…read moreprogram, but also because the food is supposed to be really good, too. It delivered on both fronts, but I really was blown away by the wine. The sheer quantity of available wines is really impressive, and the sommelier was able to recommend a rare wine that fit our interests (a fantastic, effervescent, creamy Txakoli that had lovely fruit and minerals). Later, I tried amazing ice cider. The food rundown: -Sesame pizza Bianca: complimentary bread! This was very good and quite sizable. The bottom is entirely encrusted with sesame. -Scallop crudo (rhubarb, shiso): very good and the plating was gorgeous. Meaty scallops with tangy and pungent flavors. -Snowdance chicken (spinach, sherry, thyme): Super tender, crispy-skinned chicken in a savory sherry sauce. -Sea bass (asparagus, hollandaise): I was surprised at how remarkably well this dish worked. The asparagus was so good with the rich, buttery sauce. Definitely a smaller portion, but the chicken was huge so it balanced out. -Potatoes with ramps: Yum. Served hashbrown-style and the ramps were added as little sauce dollops. I loved the space, and by that I mean the ambience and also the literal amount of space we had to ourselves. We got to stretch out in a roomy corner booth. The room featured a lot of exposed brick and grey and utilitarian ceilings, but it manages to be cozy all the same.

Also loved the crab toast. Excellent wines as well. Will return with a reservation!
