    Everything I've been looking for in a mexican joint

    I have spent 10 years in New York looking for a restaurant with a straightforward/classic mexican menu that's carefully executed using the freshest and highest quality ingredients, at excellent value for money and I finally found my holy grail last night when i was taken to Papatzul by some friends . i was completely blown away by the taste of each dish: the carnitas were so smoky, succulent and tasty, and excellent value at $12 for four large taco's piled high with meat; ditto the fish tacos. as i enjoyed every bite, i fell into a silence as i wandered into a mexican fishing village in my mind. the guacamole was also good and perfectly spiced. My only complaint was that the restaurant was a little loud (although nothing like Tortilla Flats and other mexican restaurants, and it was on one of the busiest nights of the year in Soho), and that the waiter toppled a glass of beer on his tray that fell down my friend's back — although he was extremely embarrassed and apologetic about it and comped her food from the bill.

    Great overpriced mexican food

    Coming from the south where tex-mex is abundant and cheap, paying $18 for two flautas on a plate with absolutely nothing else was a kick in the gut. Not to mention the drinks were just ok. They could do a lot better!

    What a find!

    I recently tried Papatzul for the first time and I am quite eager to try it again! Our waitress was prompt and polite, and the food and drinks were delicious! The menu has a nice mix of inventive and traditional options. Bon appetite!

    Love Papatzul

    We have had several dinners at Papatzul and each time we have had an excellent experience. The food has always been fresh and the presentation is great. It is hard to say what is our favored dish, lately we always order the Cochinita, make sure you order some tortillas with it! The portions are great and I think that all the dishes have a lot of value. Drinks too are excellent, try the Papatzul. We love Papatzul either for a quick bite or a night out with friends. Great addition to Soho.

    sweet tooth!

    If you have a major sweet tooth and are in the mood for mexican, people, I IMPLORE you, order the duck enchiladas in mole sauce, and then the mini chocolate flan for dessert. MY GOD THESE TWO DISHES ARE AMAZING!!!

    Fast-food Mexican?

    Margarita and sangria were just off and tasted too much of alcohol rather than better flavors. Guacamole was just ok. fish tacos were very mayonnaise-y and piled high with piles and piles of lettuce. The fish in the tacos, by itself, was good and nicely cooked. The scallop mini tostadas were kind of tasteless, after scraping the "tamarind" sauce off the top (the sauce tasted more like prune puree). The masa cakes with chorizo were pretty good, and our favorite thing. Have been wanting to try this place simply because we hadn't been, but now see no reason to go back or to advise going. Nothing special.

    mexican in decadence

    I used to go to this place all the time for margaritas and guacamole, after about year and a half of enjoying probably the best margarita in the city I found out that the bartender responsible of those delicious drinks left to open his own place. I think the quality of the margaritas went straight down, and the atmosphere isn't good now. It's sad for me, I feel really bummed out. PD. Does anyone knows where is him and his margaritas?.. please.
