About this business
Originally from Southern California, Ralph and Rina Camarillo's first visit to NYC was back in 1979 to see the musical "Zoot Suit", the first all Hispanic play on Broadway. What they didn't know at the time was that this would mark the beginning of a 30-year adventure celebrating their culture as Mexican Americans here in the Big Apple. They loved the city so much that they began bringing their children back for frequent visits over the next three decades. At the time, Ralph owned a construction firm and Rina worked as a fli... read more

Nothing in NYC compares! – If you are looking for authentic SoCal Mexican cuisine than you must try Florencia 13. Run, don't walk..I'm serious. The food is that good! I've been living in the city for about 4 years now and this is the first time I have ever found a place that mirrored the quality of the incredible Mexican restaurants in Southern California. I had the Fish Tacos and the only way to describe them was WOW. Thank you Ralph, Rena, and family for bringing this amazing restaurant to the west village. I'll be back ag... read more
This is the Real Deal – Real East and South L.A. mexican food has finally made it's way to NYC. It must have been old home night during our visit on a Friday evening in April, but a good majority of the restaurant patrons were visiting from or L.A. transplants. This was a real sign that Florencia 13 was truly an authitic west coast mexican joint. Who else would know better? The food was outstanding in full L.A. effect and the margaritas are huge, served in a pint glasses and were very tasty. Owners Ralph, Rena and thier kids... read more
Best Service around – Another So Cal now New Yorker who thinks this is the best Mex around. Good food, Great Margaritas and the service is so far above par for Soho/Village. Always a good scene and a friendly vibe like no other. Can you tell I like this place. Been there many a time and will continue to drink the East LA Margarita. Feliz Cinco de Mayo.
Great tacos and even better drinks – I must say Florencia 13 makes the best burritos i've ever had. I recomend the East LA Burrito wet with tomatillo and the fish tacos are my new addiction. I am in constant search of good tequilla and tasty margaritas. I was in last Friday and Chalkie made me the best margarita I'd ever had east of the Mississippi. I met Ralph and Rena,the couple that own my new favorite Mexican joint and they are the nicest people in NYC. I plan on coming back for dates and when my mom(from Texas) is in to... read more
At least the margaritas are good.... – Being from Claremont I was happy to find food that tastes like home. The fish tacos are excellent but I would avoid the Flautas as they are usually too burnt or greasy. I recomend sitting at the bar to eat, as it can take forever to get a seat and I've had both waitresses mix up my drink orders. The margaritas are going to cost you, but are very tasty if you happen to catch the right bartender ( Leonard and the girl with the tattoos seem to know what they're doing). The family that runs... read more
Men and Margaritas. That's all... – I've dined in some very fine places, and this was not one of them. I don't know where all of these other reviewers came from - maybe from S. Cali? I am not familiar with Mexican food there, so perhaps it is "authentic", but I am familiar with Mexican food from Mexico and this was nothing like it. The ingredients, especially the cheese, were sinfully low-grade and generic. The plates looked unappetizing and were incredibly scant for the price. On the up-side - the ambiance and service were ... read more
Chale - now this is some good Mexican food!!! – As if it wasn't enough that New York City is a great city, it has been blessed with Florencia 13. Coming from Los Angeles, California, I attended NYU and stayed in Greenwhich village this past summer (05). While there, one night I decided to take a walk. While doing so, to my amazment from afar I saw the face of a pachuco dislpayed on a red banner. I entered the establishment and I was welcomed by Lenard. I have to say that Lenard and his family are amazing people, and all thos... read more
Finally, a great place to dine like back at HOME! – My fellow Chicanos found their way to NYC! This is the first restrant in NYC that serves great food like they do back in East L.A. The food is absolutely authentic and fresh, furthermore the drinks are delicious and one of a kind. The owners are genuine people who make you feel at home and always bring a smile to your face. THANK YOU for finally bringing the closest thing to my mothers dishes to the city!
Good Mojitos – Good mojitos but nothing too crazy. It was good but I've had better. Prices were average, food was good but the place is super small. SUPER small. b
