Anejo Tribeca
A tequila-first Tribeca room where tacos are paired like cocktails.

8.4
A high-energy Tribeca tequila-and-tacos destination that leans into polished plates, strong margaritas, and a night-out vibe. It works best when you treat it like a mezcal-forward dinner spot with shareable starters and a steady parade of tacos rather than a quick taqueria run.

Guacamole, Tacos al pastor, Margarita flight
What makes it special: A tequila-first Tribeca room where tacos are paired like cocktails.

7.6
A SoHo Mexican dining room with a more date-friendly, sit-down feel and a menu that leans into classic preparations rather than street-food minimalism. It’s a good pick when you want a longer meal with cocktails and shared plates, but the value proposition depends on ordering smart.
