We visited this family owned restaurant while in New York and were not disappointed! The food was AMAZING and the drinks were amazing! The manager and co-owner, Daisy, was so sweet and accommodating. This place is a must if you’re in NYC!

The drink and the food were great!! They have a happy hour. Margarita is just $5!

great food, great service. This restaurant is definitely on the medium-high end prize of what I am used to, but the food was great, the environment in the outside seating is very calm, compared to the loud bear-like atmosphere inside the restaurant itself. The margarita was to die for. Would definitely recommend.

I LOVE this little cantina of fabulousness. The $5margaritas all of the time, coupled with those shrimp empenadas are the perfect after work wind down, or just getting the party started. Something before or after a show is pretty awesome, too. Again, the $5 margaritas are kinda special. The wait staff is so accommodating. If you get a chance to meet Ms Daisy, the manager, then do it. The warmth of this place flows from the top to the bottom.

After just getting back from Arizona, I thought I had the best Mexican food of my life. I shouldn't have underestimated Sombrero. I had the tacos which were the best seasoned chicken tacos I have had to this point. Their house spicy sauce was like an elevated Valentina hot sauce and I would buy it in gallons if I could. My wife had the quesadilla which, well, was a quesadilla. The chicken was very good in it but let's be honest it's hard to make chicken and cheese original. My in-laws had the fajitas and though I didn't try them they also were blown away by the flavor and quality of the food. Overall, the shining stars and the reason I would come back is the sauce and the tacos. But I would be hard pressed to not try everything on the menu next time.

The service was dependable and fast, all the workers including the manager. The food was so good including the burger which was seasoned so well! My brother loved the passion fruit drink, I had the spicy paloma and be careful it sneaks on you! Definitely 10/10 would recommend

Anything you order from here is going to be delicious—and this is coming from a Latino from Hispanic/Latino Mecca that is LA. Best part are their $5 margaritas (what?!) and service! If you ask, they will accommodate. Special thanks to our waiter Heavenly Kevin who recommended the enchiladas and rapped us some good music em Portugues!

Best Margarita and Margarita Mezcal I've never tried!! Unfortunately my girlfriend and I discovered this place too late to try their food: I saw delicious dishes passing in front of me. I will have to taste next time! The service is professional and fast but at the same time the staff is very funny and kind. Gracias por esta experiencia!

Stopped by after seeing a show on a Saturday night near closing time. We were asked where we would like to sit and chose to sit outside in one of their enclosures. The service was excellent from being seated all the way through paying the bill. They were friendly and attentive. The raspberry margarita refreshing and the food was also very good. For starters, we shared the Elote de Feria (Street Corn) and it was probably one of my favorite things on this weekend trip. For our meal, my wife had the steak quesadillas which were excellent. I had the steak tacos which were also good, but a little dry for my liking. It was the end of the night, so that may have had something to do with it and I'm not going to hold that against them.

Loved this place! So glad we finally popped in to check it out. Food was fast and tasted fantastic. The atmosphere was excellent as well, had a chill nighttime vibe. The fishbowl margarita was awesome as well, although bigger than we had originally planned to order. P.S. Shout out to our fantastic server Kevin who made us feel right at home! He made our dining experience that much more enjoyable. We will definitely be back next time we are in town from Canada! ❤🇨🇦

Excellent food & very friendly service. Bartender made some of the best margaritas my wife has ever had 👍👍. Would recommend this to any visiting first timers or NY locals.

Delicious Margaritas, Guac, and Queso Fundido con chorizo!!! Loved the staff and the atmosphere, even on a Tuesday it felt like a party!

Amazing food and amazing service. Definition will come back! Also, drinks are delicious. They go out they're way to decorate there drinks so nicely.

Nice food and good atmosphere. Portions are huge and drinks r nice. The guacamole was really fresh. I recommend the Sizzling Fajitas mix it’s delicious and even enough for two

One of the best Mexican I have ever been, was so delicious and great money value that we ended eating there almost every day during our trip. The service was fast and all the waiters were extremely nice and sweet. Me encantó la comida y el servicio, comimos ahí varias veces y siempre rápido y delicioso. Lo recomiendo

Great service, delicious food Plate size is good too My favorite was the veggie enchiladas A block from Times Square

Amazing Mexican food spot with diverse food and ambiance. The staff was super helpful and the food was delicious. First time I had nachos that wasn’t enough toppings for the bottom chips. Reasonable prices, tasty food amazing presentation. Especially for the salad bowl. Nice little Mexican spot in the city 🔥

I was in the area doing some shopping and stumbled across this cute Mexican restaurant! The service was amazing the man who waited me was very friendly! The manager Daisy was a doll so sweet and outgoing! She was so nice about recommending things for me and friends to come back! Perfect spot for happy hour it’s everyday until 5! I will be coming back here again! Really made my day and the watermelon frozen margarita // regular marg is great and strong! A good deal

Mexican food fresh and nice restaurant in Manhattan. Friendly staff, price is reasonable. Steak is amazing .

Excellent food and service. Very nice wait staff. Best Mexican food in Manhattan.

Really great meal, large portions in fact no one was able to finish their meal. I had a sombrero burger which came with some very tasty chips, aka fries. The staff were very attentive and friendly and the restaurant has a really good atmosphere. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Wow. So we only came in because this guy “Kevin from heaven” assured us that we had to come in and try the “best guac on the city block” and rest assured it was the best I’ve ever had. He recommended the nachos and churros and we were immediately glad we came in! Drinks are refreshing not too strong not too sweet but they packed a punch. We thought we weren’t going to get taken care of right away because it was busy but Kevin was running around like he was in a race. Kevin single handedly make our experience one we will never forget. Great food, better service! Make sure to put this on the bucket list!!

This would be my 2nd visit to Sombreros the workers are very warm and welcoming. You know this place is good when you have returning customers from the west coast and your regular customers who live in and around the city. Not only is the food favorably amazing and filled with so much of the latin flare its highly recommended. Thank you Daisy and the Sombrero crew for the awesome experience and wonderful hospitality hearts 💕

During training this week in mid-town we visited a bunch of places. This one barely caught my eye as Times Square is an assault on the senses. So on the last day of training I recommend this place to my co-worker and we are pleasantly surprised. The place had just opened, so it was empty, we picked our seats and looked at the menu. My co-worker quickly scanned the menu and found what he wanted, I wanted to spend some time scanning the menu, but got the 3 enchilada special. We had explained that we only had a hour so the food would have to come out faster than usual. After placing our our, the waitress brought chips and salsa. The salsa had a nice kick to it. We gobbled the chips pretty quick. Then the entrees came, my co-worker had ordered shrimp tacos and he was quickly overwhelmed by the quantity of shrimps in his 3 tacos. I got my plate and was impressed with the flavor.

A very nice place to sit down after a long day and just eat and drink. The staff was awesome, very attentive. The food was good, and the margaritas hit the spot! We got lucky since our daughter met us there and then paid the bill lol. I want to try happy hour next time lol

+1

The food was amazing and the service was exceptional. They play really good music as well, it’s a vibe. Heavenly Papi Kevin provided great service, make sure to call him that. Staff in general is really attentive.

Let’s start with the service: A++ Attentive, kind, welcoming, and with smiles in their faces! Boom! Drinks: awesome! Apps: A+ The guac was very tasty and the queso fundido was pretty good (I recommend getting the guac with it because I do think the queso could use a little extra something; just an opinion). Ove experience: A++ I would definitely hit this place again! I really appreciated the person touch of coming around and checking in to make sure our experience was fantastic. That’s why I think you should give the a try!

+3

Not going to lie, one of the major reasons I am giving this place 5 stars is for its desserts. We got tres leches and churros with dulche de leches. You could feel the freshness in these home made desserts. Apart from this we got the gauc and chips. Guac was average. Also got the chicken quesadilla, taste was good but would have preferred if the chicken pieces within were smaller and not that big.

+5

Really nice place, the staff was very friendly and welcoming; we got seated right away and the food served quickly. Highly recommended and an awesome place to bring friends for brunch or family for dinner!

I definitely recommend this place. Outdoor seating. Gluten-free homemade corn tortilla chips and thick and spicy salsa, yum. Happy hour frozen margaritas are delicious (passion fruit is great!). The enchiladas are really tasty and the taco bowl (basically a salad) is really well layered with seasoned chicken, cotija cheese, tomatoes, avocado, cucumbers, and chickpeas. Check it out, thanks for the great service, we will definitely be back soon!

The service is really good. The food is amazing. Very nice place.

The atmosphere is nice and chilled. The chips and salsa was good they have an awesome guacamole. My food was amazing i had a burger was cooked to perfection so juicy and full of flavor, for drinks I had passion Mexicana was very tasty and well balanced. The hostess erika was amazing always making sure all was great and the bartender definitely know how to make a well balanced drink. Must go and check out.... A+++++

Feb 10 2023, Visiting from South Florida for NY Fashion week, we said let's try this restaurant and it's not too far from our hotel we can walk. They were so nice from the door. We were seated and given a menu and water which i end up asking for bottled flat water. The server was nice and the manager came to our table to check on us and suggest we order more drinks lol. We didn't care for the Valentine menu just taco bowls, shrimp appetizer and caipirinhas. Sooooo delicious!! When we visit NY again, we will return. ❤️💕

Visiting from Houston, TX Was a great experience. Food was great! I order the tree tacos and the elote. My friend order the nachos. All was great! Ordered a $5 margarita, hit the spot well. Currently with covid- outdoor heated seating is available and sensitized after each guest. Staff was on point 👌 Little wait time for a table. Recommended spot.

I came here with two of my family members before they went back to college. We had a great time drinking margaritas , eating chips and guac, and enjoying the outside weather. Our host and waitress , Daisy and Marcela (I believe those are their names), were absolutely exceptional! This place was a random find for sure BUT so glad it happened. I will be recommending and going back!

Happened to stumble into this place and blown away with the authentic flavors! Amazing food and great service in a cozy ambience. Definitely coming back.

Omg this place is a gem!! Vibe is kick ass and the food is soooooo gooood!!

This place is so great! The staff is so nice and welcoming. I enjoy ordering a Classic Margarita Up with the Chips and Salsa. The perfect snack. Go check it out!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ In NYC from Texas for the Lopez vs Stevenson fight. We made an impromptu stop at this Mexican restaurant next to our hotel, and it ended up being such a great decision! The food was absolutely delicious. The drinks were just as amazing, well-made and refreshing. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the service was friendly and attentive. Definitely a hidden gem and a spot we’d happily return to again! Sunday Funday in full effect!

Our waiter was so nice and wonderful! Food came out super fast & hot and was absolutely delicious! Will definitely be coming back to such a homey feeling place. :)

COME HERE! Everyone is incredibly kind, and their drinks are amazing. Rafael is so sweet and his kindness was unforgettable. The restaurant is so beautifully decorated. We stopped by for the $5 margaritas, I got salt on the rim and it was so yummy. I’ll definitely be coming back! Thank you!

Trinity Williams

Raphael was so amazing!! The hostess was also so kind and attentive when we stopped by for their $5 margaritas. The classic margs were delicious and the holiday decorations were beautiful. My family enjoyed their meals and we will definitely be back for dinner during our trip!!

Timmy Lanning

We stayed at the Belvedere and just popped in here because it was a block away, my goodness were we blown away by the food! The staff were so sweet and very welcoming but I cannot say enough good about the FOOD! My mom got the chile relleno and said it was the best she ever had. Highly recommend if you’re staying close.

Core

With so much overrated and overpriced food in manhattan, in my opinion, this is one that lives up to and exceeds expectations. $20 entrees with large portions is definitely not cheap, but quite fairly priced considering the location and quality. Some of the best mexican we've ever had, equaling some of the best home-cooked mexican we've been able to have. Along with the food, the service was very polite and attentive, a great atmosphere. Quite spacious seating area considering the location, we came in at around 5pm on a Wednesday and sat all eight of us immediately. The cocktail menu is even bigger than the food menu, with probably 5-6 kinds of margaritas alone, of which they were made perfectly, not skimping on the alcohol. Overall, highly recommended if you're in the area.

What a hidden gem of a restaurant! Being from Texas, home of Tex-Mex, we were thrilled to discover Sombrero! We had chips and salsa which were fantastic but the sizzling steak fajitas stole the show! The steak was tender, juicy and the flavor was superb! The accompanying vegetables were perfectly cooked and so delicious! We topped our meal off with Tres Leches which was remarkably good! We were greeted with a big smile and assured we would be pleased with our meal. That was an understatement! If you’re looking for a great meal with excellent service in the Time Square area, you cannot go wrong with Sombrero!!

Sara Meray

We stayed next door at the Civilian and enjoyed happy hour margaritas and either snacks or dinner almost every night we were in New York. The fajitas are excellent and so are the drinks and service! Definitely check this place out! ❤️

Stephanie Bankert

We had a party of 6 and each person ordered something different. Every dish included fresh ingredients, and each entree had amazing depths of flavor and seasoning. One person in our party has multiple food allergies. The waitstaff happily answered questions about ingredients and accommodations. Each staff member was exceptional, extremely attentive, and friendly. Our entire party agreed that this is one of, if not the best meals we had this trip. We can't wait to visit again in the future. Thanks Sombrero for the memorable experience!

Charmaine Campbell

We went the weekend before Halloween and when we arrived the place was somewhat packed. Made sense once we got our food which came out quickly. Great big portions, excellent wait staff and lovely atmosphere/decor made this a must.

Food was good, no complaints. It's near the hotel we stayed at so it's in a good location.

Real Mexican food for real people. I loved the food, staff were elegant, only the decor could do with a makeover to set it apart.

Cute place for a date. The spicy margarita was strong and delicious. But, the pińa colada and tres leche cake were missing something. The flavor of the cake was good, but the texture was a little dry.

Nice fries, guac with strong citrus flavor, and decent vegetarian tacos. We liked their corn appetizer as well. Good service and ambience.

It was just ok, good for a quick bite. Bottle of beers spendy at $9. The guac and queso were excellent. Chicken tacos not so much, dried out chicken and tasteless. However, the rice and beans that came on the side were flavorful. We'd only go back for the apps.

The service was excellent. The provided vegetarian options and food was good. They were able to accommodate wheelchair accessible. The servers were very pleasant with overall good experience.

Not sure whether to go 3 stars for the very standard TexMex fare or 4 stars for the reasonable prices for a pre-theatre eatery in Times Square. Huge portions, ok cocktails, nice staff. No reservations but if you get there before 7pm you can find a table.

They were so friendly and served us right away. The food tasted amazing. My son loved it.

Strolling through Times Square area with some friend I heard $5 MARGARITAS. I wasn't going to say no lol our waiter Kevin was the absolute best. We only got margaritas because we had food not too long before coming there. Drinks are amazing in my opinion and the options/flavors are endless. I definitely plan on returning to try the food.

The quesadilla was tastier than the burrito. The chicken wings are ok but average, not memorable. The bottles of corona beer were seved cold with a slice of lime. The service is excellent. The place was average, not bad. It can get loud depending on how many tables are occupied. Overall, my visitors from France were satisfied.

I would have given 5 stars but the timing on the drinks and food delivery was off for sure. We literally got our drinks 1 minute before our food arrives which we got 1 minute before our Street corn, which was to be an appetizer. The food however was amazing, top notch for sure!

I was interested in this place because I saw the shareable fishbowl drinks and it did not disappoint! I ordered the smaller fishbowl and trust me, it was more than enough for my partner and I to share. The food was pretty decent as well, the portion of food is very generous. I would definitely come back again :)

I enjoyed our dinner here! The waiter was very attentive to us. The guac was very good but had more flavor in the beginning because the diced tomatoes and onions were on top rather than mixed into it. The chips were warm and crispy. We shared a steak quesadilla which was yummy with the rice. We didn't try the beans

Cute little Mexican restaurant right off Times Square near Belvedere hotel. Stopped in for a quick bite after our flight! Food was good not great.

All the wait staff were very friendly and awesome! Pretty good portions for price. Margarita was delicious.

I liked this place! You get a huge servings and the food is tasty! I ordered the Chicken Fajita and my friend ordered a shrimp chimichanga.

Wouldn't hesitate to recommend, and will definitely come back

Not bad... Total Mexican food for white people but for what it is, it is actually delicious. The ground beef enchiladas in green sauce were good. The classic margarita was DELICIOUS. Decor is fun. The only downpoints are therestaurant is NOISY and expensive. But that said, this place would be great for a party.

Sombrero Mexican Restaurant on West 48th Street is a fantastic spot right in the heart of the Theater District. The location is perfect if you’re seeing a Broadway show or just walking around Times Square and want a relaxed, sit-down meal that isn’t rushed. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels lively and colorful, with a fun, upbeat energy that makes it a great place to unwind. The food was fresh, flavorful, and served in generous portions. The chips and salsa came out quickly and were a great start. The guacamole tasted fresh and well seasoned. The fajitas were sizzling hot when they arrived, packed with tender meat and vegetables, and full of flavor. The tacos and enchiladas were also well prepared, with good seasoning and satisfying portions. You definitely feel like you’re getting your money’s worth, especially for Midtown Manhattan. The margaritas were a highlight. Well balanced, not overly sweet, and strong enough to enjoy without being overpowering. They pair perfectly with the food and add to the overall experience. Service was friendly and attentive. The staff checked in regularly without hovering, and everything arrived in a timely manner even though the restaurant was busy. It felt welcoming and comfortable, whether you’re dining with friends, family, or just stopping in before a show. Overall, Sombrero on 48th Street delivers a fun, classic Mexican dining experience with solid food, good drinks, and a great location. I would definitely return and recommend it to anyone looking for tasty Mexican food in Midtown.

Food was good. Service was fast. We were in a rush and food was cooked quickly and prepared perfectly.

My son and I came here for Sunday lunch before seeing an off-Broadway matinee. we shared the nachos and the big burrito and both were delicious and plenty of food for the two of us, almost too much. Server was very attentive. Prices were high (even for this New Yorker), but that’s to be expected in the theater district.

Harvey Messing

I had what was is listed on the menu as sizzling fajitas. They come with your choice protein, I chose steak ($31). The steak was tender and tasty, I was very pleased. At a few other restaurants, I have tried this dish and found that they pre-cook the steak. At Sombrero, based on the taste and tenderness of the steak, I would say that the pieces of steak included were cooked after I placed the order. The restaurant is on 48th Street, off the corner of 8th Avenue.

Seems more like a place for drinking. Tables too close to each other. Only had chips and salsa, can't vouch for the food. Service slow (understaffed).

We enjoyed our food at sombrero. The atmosphere was fun and the margaritas were delicious. However, we felt very rushed while eating our meal . We weren’t even finished with a drink or our dish and it was trying to be taken away from us. They were trying to turn their tables as quick as possible. We probably will search for another Mexican restaurant in New York City to enjoy.

Uninspired Mexican food that seems more for the tourist crowd in the neighborhood. There are a lot of screens so has a feel of a sports bar. However, the staff are excellent.

Not our first choice for dine in however it was around the corner and we were tired after a long day exploring NYC. Server did not read us the specials, which was where we discovered the dish we ordered - tampiqueña- steak with rice and beans. Steak was well done however the flavors of the overall dish were mediocre. If you're a tourist, you should rather spend some time researching and try another Mexican restaurant

These recipes need to be updated or be given updated seasonings. It was bland and lacked flavor. The chicken fajitas were burnt in the bottom, not sure if this is normal but never had an issue with it burning. The chicken fajitas was colorless itself. The $5 margaritas special is a basically small beverage, we actually had to ask for the special as they have signs all around their store. Not sure if the host/waiter forgot we were still there but took forever to get the tab. We had empty water cups and empty margarita cups, empty stacked plates too, yet we had to find a waiter to simply come and collect our cards and handle the bill so we could leave.

Outdoor dining was cute but hot. The high cardboard barriers is good for sanitation purposes but there was no air flow. Inside had large fans, is darker, louder ambiance. Overall was a nice place to hang out. Great service and drinks but food could be better. Wings were large and dry, but not juicy. Wings came with celery. They only had blue cheese not ranch. Drink was good and strong. Steak tacos were dry, came with rice and beans. Not recommended for the food, but go for the drinks and vibes!

The place was highly rated on google so we tried it out and boy was it disappointing. Most of the food was bland, missing that little oomph and taste. Not worth the high prices for sure. Never thought i did say this - they even managed to mess up the classic margarita! Definitely wont be going back

Sombrero Restaurant does a good job marketing with a person out in front pulling people in. That is an effective marketing strategy. Unfortunately the food just isn't quite at that level. A group of us came in for late night dinner. I had the chicken fajita and it was underwhelming. The others in my group who got different entrées agreed that it was adequate Mexican food, but in an area with lots of choices, you need to do a little bit better to stand out. I will say the workers were incredibly friendly and hopeful in the interior ambience is very nice.

Sombrero has a really nice atmosphere, and when you see “$5 margaritas,” you think you’re about to win at life. My wife and I were ready for a good time. We ordered a few drinks, and I got a simple steak taco. My wife ordered the steak quesadillas. Now, the margaritas… let’s just say the pours were so light I started wondering if the bartender was using a dropper. I couldn’t taste any liquor, and my wife confirmed it wasn’t just me. Great deal on paper, but not when the margarita tastes like a lime-flavored memory of tequila. Food wise, my taco was okay. Edible. Nothing to write home about. But my wife’s quesadillas? Delicious. I took one bite and immediately started questioning all my life choices like why I didn’t order what she ordered. Overall, it’s not a place I’d frequent. The food felt pricey for what you get though, to be fair, it’s pretty standard for the city. Nice vibe, great quesadillas, invisible tequila.

Convenient location in the theatre district with nice outdoor seating. The service was excellent and friendly, but my tacos and quesadilla was a bit bland, lacking flavor. The margaritas are very good and only $5 during happy hour.

Average mexican food. Nothing spectacular to write home about but it wasn't bad. We sat outside in their heated street dining area and being the only party out there, the service was very attentive…

This place is great to grab a drink, the workers are so kind and always making sure you are good. The Downfall was the food the fries had lots of cumin and made the whole food taste horrible I was very disappointed; I left all the fries on my plate due to the amount of cumin/seasoning they had put.

The two stars are for the very attentive and friendly staff….the food looked great but it was terrible-the pork was just porky (no real garlic flavor or seasoning) empanadas were empty and I sent it back (I never do that)the mushrooms were the best thing😔

Food is fine, service is good but it is INCREDIBLY LOUD

The service was attentive and location/atmosphere was very enjoyable. However, the food was pretty disappointing. The 'queso' was a flat skillet of melted (I think mozzarella cheese). It wasn't flavorful and just oily and hard to eat as it quickly cooled. I ordered the fajitas which came out looking amazing, but the chicken was flavorless and very, very dry. Good veggies. The rice was odd as well, but the black beans were good. The price is pretty high but not outrageous considering the location.

Pros: \n$5 dollar margaritas \nFriendly staff \nClose to multiple bars & restaurants \n\nCons: \nInedible food \nAwful margaritas \nPricey \nUnderwhelming ambiance

They charge for refills on soda water. 3$ for a soda water and an addtl 3& for the refill. And 5$ for chips and salsa. Hm.

Horrible food! Ordered beef taco platter was brought out in 45 seconds all was premade food! I specifically asked if they were carne asada tacos before ordering? Clearly they were some cheap, hard to chew dry beef! Disgusting

Overall experience 5/10 The queso fundido was the only good thing out of all the food that we order. The service was horrible; the waiter got our order wrong and we got told it was our mistake not by one waiter but by 3. Cute drinks but not worth it! Instagram - bnd_eats

Service was terrible with our waiter, other staff were friendly. The waiter couldn’t answer simple questions about the menu like how many shots are in the 12oz vs 22oz, just one example. Didn’t really care to smile with us. And kept trying to get us to pay even tho it was very empty in here on a Friday night. Then to top it off tip was automatically included which explains the lack luster service. I don’t mind tipping as someone who works in the food industry myself, however this server really didn’t do this place justice and I do believe that tips are earned not expected. Definitely makes a difference in service. Guac was good and so were the wings.
