Just Ok
Went right when it opened and the food was great. Went back and it was not as good. I guess because they're new it's inconsistent. Will give it another shot in a year.

Great Restaurant
Went here last night and thought the food and the drinks were amazing. It was on the pricier side for Mexican fare but overall the ambiance, drinks, and food make up for it.

Don't walk by this one
I've walked by this place almost every day without trying it until last week when I saw the board out front saying that it was voted highly in NY mag or Citysearch. Amazing is all I can say. Great atmosphere and the food was absolutely beautiful in every way especially the taste. I had a great salad to start with which had the best peanut dressing I've had in a long time. Then I had the Chicken fleutas which were so fresh and tasty I craved them the next day. A great place and I'm lucky to have it one block from home. Try it, you'll like it.

Well, we did not enjoy it
We tried Crema recently, after weeks of anticipation. Unfortunately, we did not like any of the 3-4 dishes we had (though the guacamole was good). Our overall impression was that the dishes were over-spiced in an attempt to be flavorful. The staff was attentive, and the ambiance was nice, but we will not be back.

Highly recommended
As I'm not a food critic, this will be brief. Try this place. It will knock your socks off. The food was delicious. The service was great. Crema has redefined Mexican food for me. I would gladly go there the next time I'm in New York.

Will go again
Lunch is prix fixe only but a good value. Creamy sweet corn soup was amazing. Had hanger steak tacos and side of black beans. Didn't jive with the tomato-chorizo paste that slathered the tacos. Will try another main course selection next time. Food rating has potential to soar if there's other items as good as that corn soup.

Finally!
I don't know when they got here, but I hope they NEVER leave. My husband and I just happened to be walking buy when we noticed the front lounge filled with people. So our curiosity got the better of us and we decided to see what the crowd was all about. And we are SO happy we did. After the 45 minute wait (we strongly encourage making a reservation), we sat down to what was one of the most memorable meals we've ever had in our lives. We had been waiting for a long time for great food in our neighborhood and thanks to Crema our wait is over.
