    Cute little hidden taco shop. Tastes like they make their own tomatillo sauce, very good either way.We tried the carnitas and the brisket. I asked for the mushroom carnitas but was brought the regular one, which was a little disappointing, but it was actually so good we came back a second time for the carnitas again. The brisket was fine, just not as flavorful.Staff is incredibly friendly, restaurant is very pretty. Food was good and reasonably priced. Husband had a michelada and was very happy.Definitely would go back.

    Cute small little place. It can get pretty cramped since it is so small. Food was good but portions a little small.The kitchen is open so sometimes they’d burn something or it would get very smokey in the downstairs portion of the restaurant.It was hard to get the waitresses attention as she was the only waitress for the entire place and she was not the friendliest.They also charge for extra chips so beware of that.It was also a bit pricy, coming to $109 for two people (with tip) but overall good experience.

    Had a wonderful meal here last night, our large group well looked after. Food and atmosphere felt authentic and fun.

    Delicious food and drinks!! Agua de jamaica was perfect in taste. Not too watery. Guacamole and chips were great too! A bit spicy but tasteful. My friend ordered the brisket tacos and said it was a bit dry. But then again he didn’t put lime on it…Order the tostadas de cangrejo and shrimp tacos and thank me later 🦦

    Yes its NYC so expect it to be expenisve if comparing to other places. However the food was very good. Staff were very friendly. A nice open kitchen, so you can see how clean everything is. Ive been here twice now for lunch. The shrimp tacos were beautiful and the second time I had a sandwhich washed down with a cold beer. It gets busy, and you can see why. Give it a go.

  • Review 7 (2021-10-09 - Rating: 5)

    Really cute and authentic Mexican restaurant. The menu is small but its probably so that they can make everything to perfection. I ordered the tortilla soup and an elote which were both out of this world delicious. The soup was bigger than I imagined and loaded with smokey chicken, cheese, avocado, and tortilla chips. The elote was grilled ND seasoned to perfection. There was generous outdoor seating and I believe there was some indoor seating as well.

  • Review 8 (2023-02-11 - Rating: 4)

    We just stopped in for drinks and our bartender was wonderful. The spicy daisy was definitely the favorite. I did the pepino Diablo and while it was super refreshing, I wouldn’t do it again. The cucumber muddled was too much in the drink itself

  • Review 9 (2023-06-06 - Rating: 5)

    Probably the best tortilla I ever had. The coconut flan was delicious! Cozy place, great staff!

    Great Mexican tacos, very tasty Mexican tortilla soup, great and strong drinks. Very friendly and helpful staff. Loved it here

  • Review 11 (2024-08-04 - Rating: 5)

    I recently had the pleasure of dining here, and let me tell you, it was a delightful experience from start to finish. The highlight of my visit was undoubtedly the pork belly tacos—each bite was a burst of flavor that left me wishing the tacos would never end! If you’re a fan of savory, succulent pork, these tacos are a must-try.To complement the tacos, I enjoyed a well-crafted michelada that perfectly balanced the meal. My only suggestion for the future would be to consider adding non-alcoholic beer to the menu for those of us who occasionally want a lighter option.The ambiance of the restaurant transported me straight into a scene from a classic Mexican movie. The vibrant decor, lively music, and warm atmosphere made me feel right at home. The friendly service added to the overall fantastic experience, with staff members who were attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely welcoming.Overall, La Esquina is a gem. I can’t wait to return and indulge in those amazing pork belly tacos again!

    Good prices, amazing drinks and Mexican foodWe went to la esquina and it was a delicious time, yummy dishes with a convenient prices in heart of Manhattan, highly recommend to all who visit New York.

  • Review 14 (2024-04-08 - Rating: 5)

    The quintessential neighborhood good eat, hidden among a sea of restaurants tailoring to tourists and corporate folks.We felt like we were back in East Village or Brooklyn. Such humble exterior yet cozy and chic interior.The taco and torta were delicious. The fried chicken was juicy. The sopa was small ($16!) but tasty.Definitely will be back for the food and vibe.

  • Review 15 (2024-03-17 - Rating: 5)

    I got the pescado tacos. You get two street style corn tortillas, the fish was fried perfectly. It came with slaw and some sort of green sauce that was very good. I also got the street corn, which is a whole cob cut in half-it was delicious, and we got the guacamole which was great.

  • Review 16 (2019-04-13 - Rating: 5)

    Great margaritas and tacos. Being vegan it’s hard to find something so quick and delicious! Easy to accommodate my needs- great for a happy hour with friends

  • Review 17 (2018-08-10 - Rating: 5)

    The staff is super friendly and I enjoy coming here on my lunch breaks or after work for happy hour. The tacos are amazing!

  • Review 18 (2018-03-01 - Rating: 4)

    Great tacos - choose wisely!I come here for one taco only: the grilled beef 🐮with melted cheese. All the other tacos are ok. This one is perfection. The beef is grilled to order, warm corn🌽 tortillas, gooey cheese. I love the grilled fish 🐟tacos as well but the fish portion is tiny🐠! I also love the green salsa here that they sell in jars. This restaurants worse aspect is the physical layout. The tables/seats are oddly layed out in ways not conducive for group eating. Imagine eating inside a taco truck.

  • Review 19 (2018-09-06 - Rating: 5)

    Wow! Wow! Wow! We had a recommendation to visit this place, it was hidden away on 55th Street, and it is a small place with a few seats. The food was amazing, i had a chicken quesadilla which looked small but I struggled to finish it, but as it was soo tasty I did! The food was so reasonably priced. Staff were fantastic, so friendly and helpful.

  • Review 20 (2023-11-14 - Rating: 4)

    The service and vibe was excellent! Drinks were amazing, they put time and effort into each cocktail. No draft beer though, only bottles/cans. Food was pretty good but you can find much better tacos in NYC.

  • Review 21 (2024-10-12 - Rating: 5)

    Loved this place. The food, the Margaritas, and the service was awesome.

  • Review 22 (2024-10-12 - Rating: 5)

    My wife and I wanted a burger, and we saw the word burgers written on the front of the restaurant. Once inside we were treated to the best burgers and service we had during our stay in New York. I had a cheese burger, and my wife had the buttermilk chicken burger. Both were superb. Nice, friendly staff and a relaxing atmosphere made for a great late lunch. Would definitely recommend!

  • Review 23 (2023-12-10 - Rating: 5)

    I love this mexican place. Great tacos! And the elote is great!

  • Review 24 (2023-08-20 - Rating: 5)

    Looking for a place to eat, I stopped by this restaurant at random and Im so glad I did. Service was friendly from the beginning and while small, it can accommodate groups and its also kid friendly with space to park a stroller and high chairs available. Food and drinks came out quick and everything was delicious. I agree with everyone that this is one of the best places for drinks. Nothing watered down here. I left totally satisfied and highly recommend this restaurant.

  • Review 25 (2023-08-20 - Rating: 4)

    Great service, just a littlebit overpriced for the quality & quantity of food. Beef in the taco was dry and tasteless with a chunk of bone in it. Chips & salsa and the tequila selection is nice thogh!

    Great food with friendly service.Great atmosphere as well. My wife and i both said this was the meal we enjoyed the most on our last trip.

    Food was good! Drinks were great. Cute intimate spot, great for a date or convos.

  • Review 28 (2023-01-01 - Rating: 5)

    We visit on New Year’s Eve, we all know that time of the year on NY gets super crazy.They were located near the hotel where we stayed. We went around 11pm the kitchen was closed but the bar was open. We stayed celebrated new years with them and it was just great. They gave complementary champagne and tequila shots, great music, super friendly. Definitely coming back. A great place to get some drinks and food.

  • Review 29 (2024-04-28 - Rating: 4)

    Great food and waited for server to ask us how everything was but never happened so decided to leave instead of ordering more food and drinks.

  • Review 30 (2018-12-30 - Rating: 5)

    Loved how on theme this restaurant was. The man who took our order was welcoming and extremely helpful. The menu above was in Spanish, so he handed us menus the gave a more in detail description of the items in English. My shrimp bowl was absolutely delicious. The shrimp had a nice char and were succulent and sweet. Everything tasted fresh. I wish my food was a wee bit hotter. I ordered the frozen fruit margarita which I also enjoyed. I should of gotten salt on the rim to counter balance the sourness. I would definitely go back again.

  • Review 31 (2019-10-22 - Rating: 4)

    Really fresh... good food and prices. Id pay more for bigger portions.

  • Review 32 (2018-02-11 - Rating: 5)

    The place is small but very cozy, loved the decoration!! We had chicken, carnitas and the rib eye tacos and they were all delicious! A plus for me is that the tacos come in corn tortillas!! The prices start at $3.75 per taco. We also had the guacamole, not my favorite, I have had better. Overall totally recommend this place!They have happy hour from 5 to 8 pm every day.

  • Review 33 (2020-03-05 - Rating: 5)

    Inexpensive! I hate to mention this first but in this neighborhood its almost impossible to find reasonably priced food. Now ti the important part: Delicious tacos, rice and beans. Everything looked great. I will be back to try more. They make everything to order so my friend who hates cilantro got exactly what she wanted. Grab a Mexican Coke to taste what Coke tasted like before high fructose corn syrup. This is a cute hole in the wall type place, looks like its been transplanted from somewhere else. Wish they had more seating but turnover is quick and there are tables you can stand at if there are no seats available. Totally worth it. Dont be intimidated by the setup of the place. Step up and order. The staff are friendly and helpful. This is a gem of a place. Go now. You wont be disappointed and neither will your wallet.

  • Review 34 (2018-02-23 - Rating: 5)

    This is the best Mexican food I have tasted outside of Mexico. Yes the food is small for the price but the quality makes up for this. The drink are on point and the decor reminded me of being in Mexico. This place is worth a visit if you are in the area. It looks like a lot of local Hispanic people go here so it must be good. Enjoy guys.

  • Review 35 (2022-10-10 - Rating: 4)

    Very nice. Good food. Recomend it. Brought big family age 6 to 80 everyone loved it. Could be a little more spicy. The portions where too big so we got leftovers and gave it to homeless people on the way home :)

  • Review 36 (2021-11-05 - Rating: 5)

    Delicious food, decent prices and friendly service. What more could you ask for in NY? Both of our meals were really tasty. A bowl with fish and shrimp tacos. I would order them again and again.

  • Review 37 (2023-06-01 - Rating: 4)

    Fun semi fast food Mexican joint, cousin of the one on UES. Good tacos, nice quesadilla with huitlacoche, a Mexican mushroom you dont often see. Very nice staff.. they pretty much take the order and disappear till its ready. Street is very noisy for outdoor dining but the interior is very open and airy. Good midtown in-a-rush choice

  • Review 38 (2024-10-20 - Rating: 5)

    Food tastes great, prices were reasonable and was a nice overall vibe. Mezcal was also smoky and delicious.

  • Review 39 (2021-11-17 - Rating: 5)

    Had shrimp and carnitas tacos, tamarind drink, chicken quesadilla and rice pudding. Everything was delicious and we had a quick meal before our show.

  • Review 40 (2023-12-30 - Rating: 5)

    Came here for the first time while being out with my boyfriend. I was surprised at how good this place is!! Definitely will come back. Its got some cool chill vibes.

  • Review 41 (2023-07-25 - Rating: 5)

    The food and drinks were both great although I wouldve liked to get them in stages rather than all together, ie, appetizer first followed by main course.

  • Review 42 (2018-08-03 - Rating: 4)

    Dont come here expecting Tex-mex this is closer to elevated street style Mexican food. Very casual, no waiter service ,as befits its theme, with decor to match. I thought it was great though pricier than I prefer for what it is. The food quality though is good and if the portions were bigger Id have gone with 5 stars all the way. Order an extra taco or chips or youll be walking away just slightly less than full. Definetly a chill spot to sit and worth trying.

  • Review 43 (2019-09-03 - Rating: 4)

    Although there are many restaurants/dinners on Manhattan that sell or offers Mexican food, with a large space inside with fancy looks, must of them miss something important.Must of those places fail when it comes to flavor, but La Esquina... despite the small place, the taste in their dishes are on point!Highly recommend if you are looking for real Mexican taste! Youll be amaze by its decorations and great vibes!

  • Review 44 (2020-08-06 - Rating: 4)

    Its good. The margaritas are reasonably priced given their location. I always get the rice and bean bowl. Filling, fresh, and flavorful. Theres a decent amount of outdoor dining as well.

  • Review 51 (2019-03-03 - Rating: 5)

    Good food. Prices reasonable for quick lunch and even a beer, if back to work is not part of your day. Food is served up fast and you seat yourself so grabbing a table before joining the service line is advisable if with friends. Busy place for lunch hour with counter seating and table seating.

  • Review 52 (2019-08-18 - Rating: 5)

    A hidden gem of Midtown. The food is excellent, authentic and prepared very fast. They had a DJ playing music, and that made a great deal of cool ambience.

  • Review 53 (2018-10-18 - Rating: 5)

    Delicious, authentic Mexican - like the tacos you get in Mexico City. The corn tortillas were not at all dry or brittle like one reviewer had said. Good music, friendly cashier.

  • Review 54 (2024-08-13 - Rating: 5)

    The menu focuses on authentic Mexican street food with an emphasis on bold flavors and simple ingredients. Standout items include the quesadilla fundida and elotes (Mexican street corn). The food is served quickly, making it ideal for those looking for an efficient dining experience.La Esquina on 55th Street delivers an authentic street food experience in the heart of Midtown Manhattan. With its flavorful menu, casual atmosphere, and attentive service, it’s a great spot for those looking to enjoy quality Mexican street food. The casual vibe and reasonable prices make it a popular choice for a casual meal or a quick bite.

  • Review 55 (2019-07-05 - Rating: 4)

    Food was good although a bit pricey for what you get. I had the fish and shrimp tacos, guacamole & salsa, and a margarita. I enjoyed everything, Id recommend it for sure.

    I went here for a quick bite on a Wednesday evening and it was moderately crowded but manageable as I was able to find a seat. I got the pascado and barbacoa tacos and they were both very delicious! I also got their house margarita which was also pretty good. The price for the tacos were moderately priced, ranging from $4-5 per tacos. The staff was very pleasant and friendly and the service was fast! I enjoyed my visit here very much! Would go back when I’m in the area!

    Chorizo quasidilas and chicken tacos were really good. Steak tacos were insanely hot (spicy) and we loved it! Great atmosphere! Didnt like the guacamole. Some sour cream and salsa for the quasidilas would have made it perfect.

    My father in law and I had dinner together here during my layover for a flight. The service was prompt and we had water and chips, ordered with guacamole and salsa, on the table in short order. I had four tacos and the rice and bean side. The tacos were killer. I had two shrimp, one steak, and one pulled pork. Very satisfied with my choice. The rice and beans were hot and well prepared. Definitely worth a stop if you are looking for good tacos.

    One of the few NYC places that does tacos close to legit. Good service, good salsa and horchata.

    The prices are overrated, I tried torta de barbacoa and was not so good, the elote callejero is good.

    The service in the atmosphere is truly great. The food was nothing to be telling folks about. Portion size are definitely smaller which is a good thing. One of those places you could just say. Eh.

    Went off the grid and ordered a squash flower quesadilla...so delicious. Jalapeño margarita had just the right amount of heat and sweet.

    This place is really cute! I found it when I was looking for a hot soup and we ended up in a very unic place, it was a little bummer when I got in and the place was completely empty and the first question was do you have a reservation? Well...I really needed the hot soup so I just ignored that...they gentlemen had a little attitude with our table but the lady was really nice. Anyway, food was good and the place is very pretty.

    WHERE✨🌮This little hole in the wall I found while walking in a very hangry state in Little Italy.WHAT I ATE✨🌮Okay… this isn’t that picturesque of a place and the food wasn’t the best if you’re a vegan. The only option I found on the menu was the avocado tacos and they weren’t fried or anything, it was literally just avocado slices slapped into a corn tortilla. Street size. They were also expensive, I think I payed $4 per taco so I only got two 😂 No vegan options but if you’re an enjoyer of all foods then they had way more options! I definitely was hungry afterwards… So unless you’re willing to spend a ridiculous amount for a street taco and still be left hungry… I don’t recommend.
