a UES Gem
A weekly goto for us -the tacos are not to be missed! Always reliable and delicious!

What did I just eat?
Although the staff was very friendly and somewhat attentive, I will not be a repeat customer. The two main reasons for this are the food and the drink size. First, the pork butt dinner plate was pretty much inedible. I don't know what they put on it, but it was awful. I tried my girlfriend's tacos and there was nothing to make them standout as being even remotely good. Second, who measures drinks these days? Come on. If i'm paying $10 for a borboun, the glass should contain more than 1.75 ounces of liquor. I never post on here, and I know how hard it is to run a successful restaurant, but I felt people should know they are not going to get what they pay for here. If the prices came down and they seasoned the food it may be worthwhile to try it again.

Good Beginning Poor Ending
Upon entering restaurant, service as engaging and led to very 'up' feeling.After being seated, service seemed to be attentive with wine coming quickly. However. once we ordered starters, waiters never came back to ask if we wanted more wine or more food. We actually wanted dinners, however, waiter never came back to ask about wine, food or anything else., Food was good but service was so poor that I would never go back. Avoid at all costs.

Not recommended
After hearing raves about Cascabel, I was excited to try it. Went on one of the early nights in their new expanded space. Service was poor - the table next to ours sat at the same time and they ordered and received their food before we received our beverages. The $4 quesadilla is really 2 very small empanadas. Most of the meat has an odd smoky taste. The guacamole is a tiny order, loaded with lime and comes with a single tortilla per person.

Overpriced for rudeness
Overpriced for hardly any food. Messed up a simple order we gave over the phone. Was rude when we inquired about the mess up. Will never eat there again as Sabor A Mexico and others are way better.

underrated.
I get takeout from here pretty often - the tacos are excellent and so is the salad I have tried. Yes it gets too crowded - but that's because its good but small. The alcholic drinks are overpriced. I haven't had trouble with the service but I don't try eating there when its packed. The servers seem pretty laid back.

Best joint in the UES
This place rocks. The food is top notch and the wine is great for the price. The place is very small though and we feel a lil' restrained when it's crowded. Stick to the off-peak hours, fish tacos, beef rib and torrontes-absolute win
