Worth The Trip to Avenue C! – I use to live in the East Village and wish I still did! Esperanto was the perfect option for my friend's birthday. it was very reasonable priced and the food was great! I love Latin flavors as well as the mojitos and caipirinhas....Esperanto nails both. highly recommend Esperanto and then hit all the other bars on Avenue C for a fun night out!!!
Amazing!!! – A friend of mine and I just went there first time last weekend for a birthday dinner, and we had a such a great time that I'm sure we'll be back soon! The food we ate was delicious (we shared the chayote salad and I had a tuna steak) but on top of that although the place was busy with a lively fun crowd the service was friendly and prompt. They have live bands on the weekdays, so we may try coming back on a weekday to check that out! Highly recommended!
Extremely Rude and Obnoxious – Esperanto is one of the worst dining experiences I have ever had. The manager and waitstaff were extremely rude. Although there were many open tables, the manager insisted my party wait at the bar for over one hour. It is clear he only made us (and the numeruos patrons at the bar) wait in order to increase the bar tab. When we asked when our table would be ready, he told US we were out of line. No restaurant should treat its customers in this manner.
RUDE RUDE RUDE – Esperanto is RUDE -- from the managers on down. I have never experience ruder service. Basically, they could care less if you stay or go. And don't trust them when they say it's a two hour wait. They're just trying to mess with your head. In reality, they'd rather hold a table empty for hours rather than give you the satisfication of spending money at their establishment. (There's no logic to their customer philosophy.) Do not go. You can get the same kind of food at some other restaurant -- and at the same ... read more
such a perfect date place – It seems that I can't get this restaurant out of my mind. Anytime I go on a dat eI find myself bringing people to this spot. I also tend to crave their plantain crusted goat cheese almost every other day. This restaurant is a must
Best Drinks – Great drinks, great music and ambiance. Esperanto is always great! The calamari salad and coco punch are especially good.
We love it every time! – Dinner there has been great every time we've been there, and the live music has always made the ambience really fun. Service has also always been quick and professional -- Go there, you won't be disappointed.
Once we got past the dragon at the gate... – I went here for my weekly girls' night out. The rude woman at the door said we could not be seated until our last friend arrived even though she was running really late and told us to start w/o her. Finally after a round of drinks at the bar and several rounds of asking to be seated... we were sat, and then not 30 seconds later the same woman came over and asked if we'd mind moving to the front, where the band was setting up... we said YES we did mind, since we were there to chat.... read more
Great time! – We've gone to Esperanto several times now, and it really has been a great time each time. The food is delicious and reasonably priced, and the waitstaff has always been friendly and professional with us. I know we'll be back! Definitely recommended.
