Won't change your life, but will make it more fun – Lobo is what it is. A fun spot with good prices, good food, and great margaritas. Don't expect anything more that that and this will be one of your neighborhood favorites. It is one of mine.

I love lobo – I eat at Lobo about once a week either with friends of just by myself at the bar .The staff are really fun and give great service especially when in comes to substitutions. I am not from Texas but if the food is as good in Texas as it is at Lobo I cannot wait to go.

The best and only Tex-Mex in NYC – The problem with the previous review is thst he grew up in the southwest that is not Tex-Mex. Lobo has the best and only Tex-Mex in NYC do not just take my word check out NY Press best of this year. I eat there all the time and the food is always excellent. People come from all over the city and even from Texas to have there famous Margaritas and at $8 for a 17oz drink made with 100% agave tequila it is a bargain. If you want Tex-Mex this is the only place to go.

Not true tex mex, but decent – Growing up in the southwest I know my tex mex. The food here is decent, it's edible at best, but nothing about it is authentic and you don't crave it after you leave. The drinks are weak & overpriced, so save your money. The tamales are dry and the chicken tacos are mediocre. However, I did enjoy the caldo de pollo (chicken soup mexican style) and the fajita salad. The guacamole is pretty good, considering noone knows how to make it out here. Overall, this place is average with above average pr... read more

-For a 'tequila bar' you would expect to be given a tequila menu. Nope. -For $8 margaritas touted to be "the best" you'd expect more than well tequila and cheap mixer in a small glass. Nope. -For hard shell tacos you'd expect them to be fully prepared with fixins. Nope. -For taco beef you'd expect some seasoning. Nope. -For a small restaurant that isn't too busy you'd expect a water refill. Nope. -For a great dining experience will I go back to Lobo? Nope.

User review by murray9830 – As a Mexican living in the New York area, I have a hobby of trying Mexican restaurants in the city, searching for authentic food. I am so happy that I found lobo. We sat at the bar and my date happened to be a vegetarian so we asked the bartender for some suggestions, he made some great suggestions on how they'd alter meat dishes to be vegetarian friendly and what they came up with was just amazing. I had the shrimp fajitas which were full of flavour and a very generous portion. But the best was d... read more

Great food, margaritas, and beer – The enchiladas and tacos are great! The enchiladas have a lot of cheese and flavor. It is tex-mex so there is more chilli than standard mexican food. The beer on tap is served in a huge thick beer glass, which is fun! The atmosphere is pleasant with lots of western decor and great servers. The free chips and salsa is always a plus too!

I CRAVE Lobo!!! – Lobo is absolutely outstanding! I crave their Chicken fajitas and queso dip every week! The margaritas are amazing! Citysearch even named them 2nd place in 2004 for best margaritas! They said "Tex-Mex that'll satisfy wolfish appetites--and some of the best margaritas in the area." The staff is absolutely fantastic and fun! The owners made an effort to introduce themselves, and since have always made sure to come over and say hello whenever I am there. They always remember my friends the next time we come ba... read more

Good margs, average food – Eaten here a few times and always thought it was okay. It's not amazing, nor is it cheap, but then again there really aren't that many great Tex-Mex places around Bklyn.
