The meal begins with complimentary chips and salsa, a little opening act before you turn your attention to the rest of the menu.
Start with fresh tacos packed with seasoned meats and add street corn alongside them. The drinks stretch from aguas frescas to a passionfruit margarita, bringing fruitiness and tequila into the same glass. Traditional flan rounds out the menu with dessert, giving you a sweet finish after the savory dishes.
Find the cantina at 64 East 97th Street, where it stays open daily from 10 AM to 10 PM. Monday happy hour lasts all day, while Tuesday through Friday brings that offer from 2 PM to 8 PM.
