Reviews for Bodega Negra in New York, NY
Great food & lively atmosphere. I came for a birthday party and had a great time with friends. The food lived up to the reviews... and presentation was nice. I would say the menu is a bit pricey for some items especially the pitchers of sangria and the costper glass. But if you go out to a restaurant downtown you're usually going to pay a bit more. Portions look small but are veryfilling. I would come back for more tacos with a side of the guacamole. The steak tacos were my favorite. So tasty and full offlavor. It was delicious! Great experience in my opinion. Read more
The short review: 100% recommended, won’t regret it at all. There are so many great things about this place. I visit this... restaurant during the restaurant week, starting with a happy hour margarita at the bar, very decent considering the price ofit. As soon as I got to my table, the ambience was so immersive surrounded by the dimmed lights and barrels on the walls. Butthe true experience came with the food. Coming from a Latino culture, the dishes were mastered to almost perfection. RealMexican blue corn flautas and queso fundido with chorizo we’re amazing, but the chicken tacos were the star of the show. Fordessert, the tres leches cake was stunning and presentation can’t be better. I will definitely come back to try the otheroptions in the menu, and as I said, you won’t regret to spend a great date here with a club fresh atmosphere. Read more
Had a really great time here. Friday night music was fantastic and our waiter was so knowledgeable and friendly. We had a nut... allergy in the group and he was great about mentioning what should be avoided or put on the side. We never felt rushed and thefood and drinks were all delicious. We had the chicken & chorizo fajita (meat was so tender), chicken tacos (tasty, but toosmall for the price), yuca fries (for a side this was a large portion), sweet plantains (hit the sweet spot). We also had thewhite dome lava cake dessert. Read more
Oh my god every bit of food that entered my mouth made it water even more. Portions were great, taste and texture well balanced,... and presentation was clean. Our servers were extremely attentive, asked about our allergies, and pointed out when dishes eithercontained a food that one of us could not eat or had it on the side. They paid even more attention to where they placed thedishes so as to not have a ton of meat in front of the vegetarians and peanuts in front of me. Everything came out in perfecttiming. I enjoyed the dark, grungy ambiance as well. Will definitely be back! Read more
Went for Summer Restaurant Week 2019. The decor is beautiful. Our server was so polite and sweet. She explained the different... menu items. We ordered the tacos. Surprisingly the veggie taco was great. We also enjoyed the pork. The chicken taco was toosalty and the beef was lacking something. We ordered the Don Huevo additionally for aesthetic purposes. Overall great experienceand service. Read more
Came here before going out and I'm really glad I did! The food was so good. I really loved the pizza. The salad was really good... as well. I also really enjoyed the black beans and the green rice. The service was really great as well and I went with about 10people! Servers were very attentive! Would love to come back here again! Read more
Cool vibes but I totally recommend going on one of their event nights for music and dancing (like Monday’s or Thursdays).... Loved their Don Huevo dessert but the dinner was pretty average for the price point. Good drinks, fun neighborhood — newshrimp tacos were the highlight Read more
This was my favorite Mexican restaurant in the city. Love the ambiance, decor, great customer service. The food was absolutely... delicious! My favorite dish was the lobster fajitas. Unfortunately, they are closed now. Hopefully they will reopen. Read more
