In my opinion the best Mexican restaurants are the "hole in the walls" or the smallest places those are typically in the Mexican neighborhoods. Large restaurants dont have the same kind of food its more tex mex and that is way different that Mexican.
I agree with Rosebud - Del Valle is one of the best - authentic Puebla cooking, it's very small, very plain and it's spotless (it's also on Tenth Avenue in the middle of nowhere). They have a large menu, excellent food, very generous portions and the prices are unbelievable. I think the most expensive thing they have is the seafood soup - it's delicious and it's about $15. Appetizers are $2 to $3.50. The waitresses are very friendly, but service is usually very slow. Don't eat here before the theatre - you'll miss the first act.
Hi, In the past, there was a good Mexican "Del Valle" 48thSt/10th Ae, cooking from Puebla, I don't know if it is good now, I liked much it, I wish you a good evening.
Without a doubt for food and atmoshere I would say Rosa Mexicno, the one across from Lincoln Center. There are 2 others. The original is on 58th and 1st and I' m not sure where the new one is, you would have to check it out, I know it's downtown.
Also, excellent,but noise is Zarela on 2nd ave around 50th. Zarala has been around for a long time. She was head chef of a very fancy restaurant on the upper east side for quite awhile, and she was the first one to bring real Mexican food other than Taxacos and Tortilas. I remeber her Borocho Chichen, which was chicken made with vodka instead wine like the french. I know there are other Mexican restaurants, but these 2 are real restaurants not just taco or fajatas loaded with grease and guacaole,
Although the Lincoln Center branch is still very good, I have noticed that Rosa Mexicano has disappointed me the last couple of visits. It could be that expansion is contributing to this, but I don't seem to find it as good as I used to. I have been to their newest location on e.18th in the old America location and found it to be decent.
If you want a truly good, "hole in the wall", authentic place that is off the beaten path, I would suggest you try a place called El Maguey La Tuna. You'll find it on the Lower East Side, on Houston between Ridge and Attorney. It's not much on atmosphere, but the food is very good and very authentic. The margarita's and mojito's aren't bad either.
